| Citizendium turns five, but the Wikipedia fork is dead in the water Posted: 11 Nov 2011 01:56 PM PST arstechnica.com "Five years ago this month, Larry Sanger caused a stir when he launched a fork of Wikipedia, the site he helped create in 2001. Sanger believed Wikipedia had fatal weaknesses that could only be fixed by making a clean break from the past. He had devised a new editing process he hoped would allow his new site to eventually surpass the original. It hasn't turned out that way. After a burst of initial enthusiasm, the site plateaued and then began to steadily decline. The site now has fewer than 100 active members, with only about a dozen of them making edits on a typical day...." |

This common framework has been named Horizon 2020, and it will begin in 2014....Given the importance of developing and providing better access to social sciences data to increase knowledge, innovation and evidence-based policy making, we are planning to launch by 2015 a number of European Research Infrastructure Consortia – commonly called “ERICs” – in the social sciences and humanities. They will play a significant role in reinforcing cooperation between national and EU-level research and innovation policies....While one normally thinks of such infrastructures in terms of particle accelerators or large-scale laser systems, SSH infrastructures are also very important, and these range from the digitalisation of data archives in the fields of history or arts, to open access datasets in areas ranging from ageing to voting behaviours...." |
