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.
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
Wikipedia over IPFS, it seems to be a work in progress, but its something
that’s actually pretty cool, thanks!
How would that work?
