英文wikipedia上关于百度百科的条目Baidu Baike真得非常奇怪，一打开这个页面就“该页无法显示”，而其他文章却正常。通过https访问才正常打开这个页面。

以下是24 April 2006 03:16 UTC的版本，内容在GFDL下发布。请各位看看是有什么敏感词汇造成的吗？至少我是看不出来。

比较奇怪的是，如果有敏感词汇，会造成网站几分钟无法连接。但是只有baidu baike这个条目打不开，奇哉怪也。

Baidu Baike (Chinese: 百度百科; pinyin: bǎidù bǎikē) is a Chinese wiki encyclopedia service provided by a major Chinese search engine Baidu. The test version was released on 2006 April 20. The number of articles exceeded 10,000 in two days.

Description

According to the first article [1], which is about the encyclopedia itself, the encyclopedia is an open net encyclopedia holding equality, collaboration, and sharing as principles. The article also states that the encyclopedia, with two other services provided by Baidu ("zhidao" and "post") would form a trinity system and complement the search engine.

The articles are written and edited by registered users and reviewed by backstage administrators before release. There is no formal way to contact the administrators.

Registered users’ contributions are rewarded in a credit point system.

Although the earlier test version was named "Baidu WIKI", the current version and official media realeases say the system is not a wiki system.

Principle of the encyclopedia

According to Baidu Baike’s policies, these kinds of articles or comments would be deleted:

1. pornographic or violent articles
2. advertising
3. politically reactionary content
4. personal attacks
5. unethical content
6. malicious, meaningless content

The third point is particularly notable, as the content of the encyclopedia will have to satisfy Chinese government censors. It is likely that articles about Taiwan or the Falun Gong would not be allowed.

The name

The name Baike is composed of the characters bǎi (百) meaning "hundred" (also the first character of Baidu), and kē (科) meaning "branch of knowledge".

The word "百科" used to combian other words to express "enclopedia". Such as "百科全书/百科全書"(Bǎikē Book) in Chinese, or "百科事典" in Korean , and Japanese language.
