Chinese Encyclopedia (online)

The Chinese Encyclopedia is an online encyclopedia controlled by the Chinese government. While Wikipedia is blocked by the Chinese firewall, this is the Chinese alternative. The platform is going public in 2018 with around 300,000 articles, written by 20,000 authors and scientists, controlled by the Chinese government. Western mass media describes this as censorship and propaganda.[1][2][3][4]
