Scholarpedia seems like a good idea but IMHO is let down by it's complete lack of content. I clicked on a dozen links in the three encyclopedias they are hosting (the encyclopedia of dynamical systems sounded fun) and all I got was canned messages saying "This article has been reserved by Prof. Suc
