Text of the page (random words):
this was factolex factolex was created in 2007 by alexander kirk and nader cserny as a site dedicated to facts which could be organized into individual lexica the facts were automatically gathered and processed from a few trusted sources such as wikipedia and offered users to select the facts they thought were most important for a term this both supplied a ranking for facts across users as well as building up a lexicon of individual definitions for terms by the users below you can see some screenshots of the site when it was live the site existed in both english and german faq executive summary what is factolex a lexicon that explains terms using facts submitted by our users compact and readable explanations of terms instead of long texts we can find the best terms and facts based on our users selection of facts what s in it for you you receive a convenient list of terms defined just by the facts you selected called my lexicon you can view other people s collections we call them lexica if you like to know more about a fact click the source of the fact by clicking the icon next to it you can enter terms and facts that are relevant to you terms apparently less relevant to the public are just ranked lower but not removed like on wikipedia what is factolex factolex is a community powered fact lexicon that enables you to build your own lexicon by ticking the checkboxes you can select the facts that describe the term best for you this will create your invidiual explanation for the term and build your own lexicon also adding your own terms and facts is quick and easy as everyone contributes with their terms facts and selections the lexicon gets better the more people find a fact important the higher it appears in the list the quicker you can understand what the term is about why use factolex when there is wikipedia at factolex we aim at explaining terms at a different level than wikipedia you go to factolex for the essential facts about a term and then move on to the source of the fact this might be wikipedia that is particularly interesting to you as another aspect factolex tries to embrace the democratic nature of the users acting together everyone can contribute you don t need deep knowledge of the syntax or rules that apply to the lexicon in order to help furthermore we think that on factolex more terms deserve to be included it is not uncommon that on wikipedia terms are removed soon after being added by users because powerful wikipedia users think they are not relevant not so on factolex if the term is only of niche importance it will appear lower on the list than more important terms with the same name what makes factolex different factolex divides knowledge into short texts facts while this might limit the depth of the contained knowledge it also makes knowledge easier to handle by clicking the checkboxes next to a fact users can create their own lexicon the world according to user x factolex then uses these small user contributions to rank the facts for a term if it all works out nicely the top fact will already define a term pretty well giving you an instant answer to what it is about what are you trying to achieve with factolex with factolex we want to bring knowledge into a form in which it is easier to handle encyclopedias contain a great deal of knowledge but it is all captured in long texts that makes it very difficult to leverage that knowledge in situations where there are certain constraints such as limited time and space by providing structural guidance we make it easy to contribute you can already help by clicking a checkbox while you can also benefit through your own contribution clicking the checkboxes builds your personal lexicon
