Today, computer and internet encyclopedias have largely replaced print encyclopedias. The most popular online encyclopedia, ''Wikipedia'' has  stunned the world; and as a leading force in the open source revolution has shaken assumptions regarding knowledge and scholarship to their very roots.  Some have challenged its reliability because of its policy to let anyone contribute to it, but it has stood up remarkably to tests and comparisons to conventional sources such as the ''Encyclopedia Britannica''.
