'''Citizendium''' aims to gather knowledge more effectively than [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]], and aims at quality as well as quantity.


It was founded by Wikipedia co-founder [[Larry Sanger]] in 2006 to remedy what he viewed as problems with Wikipedia.  The site requires the use of verifiable {{tag|RealNamesNetwork|RealNames}} and academic credentials. Initially, the community considered [[fork]]ing the [[English Wikipedia]] but decided against it.


Citizendium has an organized hierarchy: Authors are anyone with an approved account, while Editors are contributors whose demonstrated expertise in their field is officially recognized by the Citizendium. "Constables" play the role of administrators.
