- Wikitruth
Wikitruth is a website that critiques
and lampoons Pseudopedia. It runs
on the MediaWiki software but is not editable
by the public; it has a limited GFDL content of about 137
articles, composed by about a dozen
contributorsweblink, but
appears to attract a disproportionate amount
of traffic.
The site posits that there are
fundamental problems with Wikipedia's
structure, focusing in part on actions and
statements from prominent Wikimedia
Foundation members like Jimmy Wales; the concept of
vandalism; claimed censorship; and
aspects of the culture of Wikipedia. It is
also a self-described "scandal sheet" that
castigates certain Wikipedia administrators
and Wikimedia Foundation members for
perceived character flaws.

tone tends to be caustic and obscene, the
underlying intent, according to the site, is
to improve Wikipedia: "Make no mistake, we
wouldn't be bitching this much about
Wikipedia and Wikipedian failings if we
didn't, at the core, love the whole concept.
... We really do think the basic idea is
great; it's the implementation we
have issues with." ...
