Wikipedia Weekly Special Episode 1: Larry Sanger's Citizendium
Released: 9 November, 2006

Wikipedia Weekly, Special Report.
The point is not to determine who is notable enough to be in the encyclopedia, because there's all kinds of things that aren't notable to anybody but a handful of people, but there are still articles about them. It doesn't have to do with notability, it has to do with maintainability. In other words, if some information can be reliably maintained... then there's no reason why we can't have it.
 
— Larry Sanger, Wikipedia Weekly (Special Episode 1)
This is one thing that I don't think Wikipedians quite realise yet. If Citizendium takes off, we practically guarantee the long-term survival of Wikipedia itself...
