Citizendium is a wiki for providing free knowledge where authors use their real names. We write the kinds of encyclopedia-style articles that Wikipedia can't write, regarding information as a public good and welcoming anyone who wants to share their knowledge on virtually any subject. Our online community prides itself on being congenial and supportive.
