WikiAlpha:Introduction

WikiAlpha is an open encyclopedia, journal and news source anyone can contribute to. WikiAlpha was launched on 19 June 2011.

Motivation The rise of Wikipedia's aggressive deletion policies particularly regarding 'non-notable' topics and articles published by Wikipedia newbies has been one of the primary motivations for creating WikiAlpha. The creators User:Richard and User:Govind feel that Wikipedia no longer serves the public interest as an encyclopedia that 'anyone can edit.' Seeking to expand on the concept of a publicly modifiable real-time publication, we have created WikiAlpha to serve this need.
