Citizendium was one of the Social sciences and society good articles, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.
Menegus, Brian (2019-07-01). "Wikipedia Co-Founder Picks a Nice Day to Log Off". Gizmodo UK. Retrieved 2020-07-06. After leaving Wikipedia, he founded Citizendium, a competing online encyclopedia I had never heard of until writing this very article. The depressing last paragraph of Citizendium's Wikipedia page states, "a referendum was held to abolish the governing Citizendium Charter and the Council in favour of Wikipedia-style discussion and consensus. It attracted nine votes, and was passed. A new Managing Editor was to be elected at the same time, but there were no nominations."

Is it really appropriate to add commentary about the site's recent status based on the primary source of Wikimedia's recent contributions page? I would argue no, so I am reverting this for now. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 02:28, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Fine by me either way, but the Decline section already used a few like that (citing RC or site statistics), which isn't so unusual for sites that self-report stats. – SJ + 03:11, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
You certainly weren't the first to add this kind of content. I also see something similar was recently removed by @X-Editor (perhaps for the same reason? There was no edit summary). I think more similar content may need to be removed from the article. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 13:05, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
