Runner up must be Archive.org. I donate to both projects regularly.

I donate to archive.org by scanning and uploading new content (old science instruction books, etc.).

you mean "old content", right? (:

I think Open Street Map comes close.

Kinda, but Wikipedia is pretty universal, while open street map is limited to Earth.

When there is human-made pavement on another planet (or moon) I highly suspect OSM will model it.

This is more of a testament to HTTP/HTML though. It's a universal format for storing and retrieving information.

OpenStreetMap is, along with every other geo data project, limited by the common coordinate systems we have for storing and retrieving geospatial data -- and these are almost always planetary, not universal.

Some runner ups:

- Archive.org

- SciHub

- OpenStreetMaps

- Library Genesis

- TikTok (/s)

It’s hard to overstate the value of Wikipedia to humanity.

I hope there are lots of copies of it in government survival bunkers around the world.

I wonder if they keep an offline copy on ISS?
