   Why did Nupedia become a wiki?

   • These articles would then be fed back into Nupedia's editorial process, allowing for more rapid growth. As there was a desire to keep a degree of separation between the two projects, the Wiki was named "Wikipedia" and installed on its own domain, going live in early 2001.

   Who created the Nupedia?

   • A document that changed the world: The Nupedia, a Web-based encyclopedia project, co-created by Larry Sanger and Jimmy Wales, 2000.

   Why did the Nupedia advisory board want a wiki?

   • The first encyclopedia articles for what was to become Wikipedia were written then. It turned out, however, that a clear majority of the Nupedia Advisory Board wanted to have nothing to do with a wiki. Again, their commitment was to rigor and reliability, a concern I shared with them and continue to have.
