Justapedia, an alternative and promising replacement of WIkipedia, has been launched at justapedia.org. It has not been indexed by search engine yet since it's early now.
Should I try linking pages on this Wiki on Wikipedia?

Re: Wikipediocracy is now Bishonen approved

I've seen a good action by Bishonen and some reasonable statements, but regardless allowing a Wikipedia admin to be a bureaucrat on a "Wikipedia Criticism site" is risky regardless of being a good admin or not.

Re: Why We Hate Wikipedia / Ten things you probably didn't know about Wikipedia

Jimmy Wales not running it doesn't worsen it. He's a hypocrite as it is. He claimed in an Interview "We're an open democracy." Apparently the guy hasn't even read his own policies.
