Question: Demopedia ?

In the submission thread for the photo contest there is a reference to "Demopedia". I did a search and could not find a Demopedia. Can anyone tell me what Demopedia is?

Demopedia

On December 7, 2004, DU launched the beta of Demopedia, a wiki based collaborative project aimed to present the Democratic and progressive opinion and outlook. During the beta, only users who had registered at DU before December 7 were able to contribute. It uses the MediaWiki software.

The link to the Demopedia is broken, and there are also some old, but assessable posts with broken links to it. So it was a trial run that was discontinued.
