Might be time to go back to the encyclopedia business model

  I'm not sure how flippant you are being, but this is the answer. A wikipedia / wikidata for everything, with some metadata about how much "scientific consensus" there is on each data point, and perhaps links to competing theory if something is not well established.

    In the past year, I have seen Wikipedia go from a decent source of information to complete fantasy on a specific topic. Obviously biased mods have completely pushed the particular subject narratives.

        There is an admin that has been erasing or downplaying any criticism on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_China_Study https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_China_Study for over a decade. I don't know why some people bother.

    There was a time when the overall consensus was that the earth is flat.

    I'm not being flippant, actually. I would pay to have a reliable source of information. I'm also overwhelmed at the thought of how to make such a thing work.
