About Larry Sanger and his usual shtick. He is kind of right about Wikipedia, but his Citizendium fork was a near-total failure, as was Veropedia, Wikinfo, etc. Everyone who has spent time editing Wikipedia is aware of its problems and has ideas about what to do instead. Mounting an experimental test at any scale is very difficult and the ones (such as Sangers) which have actually been tried have gone badly.
