    Wikipedia is based in the United States, which means that it is controlled by the US government one way or another. So the only option is to create alternatives.

      Sure, I just don’t think you’re achieving the same, if you create an alternative you’re going to get a lot less people reading that, and also it will not have the enormous amount of information Wikipedia has.

        All content in the Wikipedia is libre, if lack of content is your concern you can just fork the Wikipedia.

          And who’s going to maintain the thousands of thousands of articles? Sure, some may not need constant updating, but a lot will, unless you constantly fetch all the data.

            The same (and more) people doing it currently… you want to make a better non-US controlled Wikipedia? I am sure you will be able to motivate people to help you if that is your genuine goal.

            But people will realize if the only goal is to replace the US centric view with a China centric one and probably stay with the original.
