This page is pretty much dead, but is being retained as a memorial. Please edit it to keep it fresh! Citizendium and thus this page has either outlived its usefulness, or, through neglect and/or indifference, become mostly unused. If you wish to reinvigorate it, just pitch in and add something. |

Keep up to date with how nothing is going on at the alternate Wikipedia, Citizendium, with our rolling reports of the "happenings" there. Older entries are found in the archives. |

Note: Citizendium is a bit like a bad horror film: just when you think it's dead, it comes back and does something ridiculous. That said, we're pretty much documenting its terminal decline now. The WIGO is, however, still open to entries.
June 2024[edit]
   | 5 | Citizendium seems to have spent the last 6 months going backwards. From the counts on the Welcome to Citizendium main page, they have lost a net 835 articles since the Internet Archive's 29 December 2023 snapshot.

April 2024[edit]
| 3 | We may ridicule Citizendium for infrequent updates to their articles, but at least some exist... until they just delete them. For example, not only has the article on noted philosopher Daniel Dennett not been updated to reflect recent terminal news, but it has also been found unworthy of the great encyclopedia. |

| 5 | Sysop John Leach, who has spent the last several days deleting hundreds of pages, appeals to Citizens to create more articles. (At least he's using RationalWiki to come up with the lists.) |
December 2023[edit]
| 8 | According to the objective experts of Citizendium, RationalWiki is a rival of Conservapedia. |
August 2023[edit]
| 6 | Wikipedia declares the site basically dead: "As of August 2023, Citizendium editing had virtually ceased, except for maintenance by Pat Palmer." |
March 2023[edit]
| 5 | There was a backlog of new user account requests going back several months, which seems to have been cleared. The project isn't dead just yet! |

| 4 | The financial report has been redesigned to reflect the switch to annual reporting. The report for 2022 shows a net gain of $491.99 in funds (+3,433.66 donations; -2,764.38 expenses). |
