I torrented the text of english wikipedia one time and deleted it a few weeks after to make space for my Monero node. What I meant by “decentralized Wikipedia” would be not only the files being stored in multiple locations but there also being some sort of system (including moderation I suppose) to broadcast edits across the network
Is there any way to decentralize Wikipedia? P2P wikipedia? Because that seems like the best long term solution to this.
How would that work?
Yes, start with a mirror. A download is enough for yourself, but mirrors retain what is needed to rebuild the database. You will meed a lot of storage

I’ll have to stop you right there, mate. You are reinventing blockchain.
It’s more akin to torrenting really, I stumbled upon Wikipedia over IPFS
