Scholarpedia feels and looks like
Wikipedia - the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. Indeed, both are powered by the same program -
MediaWiki. Both allow visitors to review and modify articles simply by clicking on the
edit this article link.
However, Scholarpedia differs from Wikipedia in some very important ways:
- Each article is written by an expert (invited or elected by the public).
- Each article is anonymously peer reviewed to ensure accurate and reliable information.
- Each article has a curator - typically its author -- who is responsible for its content.
- Any modification of the article needs to be approved by the curator before it appears in the final, approved version.
