Dummipedia is a Wikipedia companion, a Wikipedia fork, if you like. Wikipedia is indisputedly the No. 1 online general encyclopedia today. With all key facts meticulously referenced, its articles are as authoritative as any. However, in its endeavour to become more and more comprehensive, its articles have inevitably become longer and longer.
Dummipedia is a general reference specially created to cater to the needs of those of us who have difficulties reading more than 500 words per article, especially online. I must admit that although I am an avid reader, I have difficulties reading online.
No less inspired by the Dummies series and highly readable, Dummipedia was started recently as a separate effort NOT under the Wikimedia Foundation, Dummipedia presently has 562 articles (see list).
