A few years ago, it was touted as a sort of mirror to Wikipedia that was a little out of date, but socially and politically contentious articles tended to have more balanced information and matter-of-fact descriptions.

Then it just... Stopped. It's still there, but it runs the same old news links and hosts the same front page articles that it has for several years now, still up being hosted (=paid for?) but apparently unchanged and unmaintained.
