Enciclopèdia.cat vs New World Encyclopedia

Enciclopèdia.cat is a free Catalan-language reference portal covering subjects such as language, history, economics, art, politics, geography, science, and nature. It lists 45 reference works and more than 800,000 articles, spanning dictionaries, general and specialist encyclopedias, thematic works, atlases, chronologies, statistics, and yearbooks. Search one or more words across the portal or within a selected work, then order results using factors such as title, work, and frequency. Readers can also explore the Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana through a topic-based knowledge tree. Its digital edition has more than 360,000 articles and 100,000 illustrations, along with some audio and video. Specialist titles include references to sports and music and a cinema dictionary. The portal provides citation tools and educator resources, with text and images and continuously updated content. Registration adds access to +Enciclopèdia content, editor chat, and tools to sort and filter search results. The service is available on the web, not as a mobile app; the publisher suggests a home-screen shortcut as an alternative. Support is available by phone at 934 126 124 and by email at [email protected].

New World Encyclopedia is a free web reference containing thousands of selected articles about human knowledge. It is aimed at teachers, students, and general readers, including people reading at late high school or early college levels. Coverage includes philosophy, religion, history, biography, political science, social sciences, geography, physical and life sciences, and arts, music, literature, sports, and leisure. Articles are arranged alphabetically, connect to related entries, and support keyword searching through a custom search engine. Scholars and editors supervise articles and review facts, grammar, and values. Readers can submit feedback, but editors and staff decide whether to change entries. The site uses MediaWiki and a SphinxSearch-based custom search system, and provides text and images. Pages document links to Wikipedia for imported article histories and Amazon ISBN links that may earn referral fees. Text contributions use Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 and GNU Free Documentation License terms, subject to reuse rules; fair-use material and some media may have separate restrictions. Since 2009, the project says it has relied on advertising and donations.
