The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy is an encyclopedia that uses established methods of development, such as

• the use of specialist authors
• selected by a editor or an editorial committee who is competent (though not necessarily a specialist) in the field covered by the encyclopedia
• the use of peer review

The result of such methods can easily be seen by comparing e.g.

• Truth with http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/truth-correspondence/
• Axiomatic set theory with http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/set-theory/
