KTAB World Factbook
The KTAB World Factbook or, more fully, the KTAB Cyclopædic World Factbook of Every Damn Thing is an encyclopædia run by KTAB, and can be found at factbook.ktab.co.uk.History
Statto started making an encyclopædia centred on the relationships things in the Universe bore to him on his University of Oxford webspace. Having got bored of hand-coding all the HTML, he created Stiki to speed the process of unashamed egocentric factual exposition.
He then decided it would be a good idea to make the encyclopædia Statto-&-JTA-centric, allowing him to rope in JTA and halve the workload, and thus was born Stikipædia.
After a few months, however, it became clear that Stikipædia was a silly name because of its necessarily including a non-standard character were it written properly. Thus, the project was renamed and rehomed to avoid the difficulties inherent with the silly name.
What you see before you now is the result of this steady descent into laziness. It is hoped that one day this will be a behemoth to rival The Statto Dictionary in size, unconstrained by the restrictions of paper.
Nomenclature
The KTAB World Factbook is so-named because it is a factbook containing information collated by KTAB about the World.
“World” is, by this definition, a loose term encompassing anything a Factbook researcher feels it necesary to write about.
Technology
The KTAB World Factbook is powered by the Stiki parser of SCMS.
The technology is a collaborative, wiki-based one, but only certain users can edit the pages, unlike, say, Wikipedia.
