Knowledge Standards Foundation

Our mission is to help bring the encyclosphere into being. The encyclosphere will be the universal network of encyclopedias—an ownerless, leaderless, centerless knowledge commons. Like the blogosphere, it will be a decentralized series of “feeds,” but feeds of encyclopedias and individual articles posted anywhere online.

We serve all people who seek knowledge on the internet in the form of encyclopedia articles. These are the readers of the encyclosphere. To provide that service we need volunteers:

• Developers to host articles on the encyclosphere
• Writers & academics to share their encyclopedic content with the encyclosphere
• Designers to create graphics and videos that help explain what the encyclosphere is
• Donors to support us financially (we are a U.S. 501(c)3 non-profit)
• Enthusiasts to spread the word / share our cause with others
