encyclop(a)edic (online) resource


Perhaps you could translate this a bit more freely.

Wikipedia is an encyclopedic online resource for students that is collectively created.

"encyclopedic knowledge base” could also be an option

agree TonyTK : Or even "encyclopaedia resource". Alternatively, you could sex it up a bit and call it a "go-to encyclopaedia".

encylopedic port of call

port of call = traditioneller britischer Begriff zur Beschreibung einer Referenzquelle
Example sentence:

she preferred to use her local library as an encyclopedic port of call

Peer comment(s):

neutral TonyTK : (Link only works with one http://) The website itself doesn't feature your sample sentence; it only mentions "port of call", which tends to be prefixed by "first". Not trying to be awkward, but I don't think your suggestion has the right ring to it.

source of choice for encyclopedic knowledge/one-stop knowledge hub

"For a growing number of individuals, Wikipedia has become the source of choice for encyclopedic knowledge." https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/error-glitch-nois...

Or -

One-stop knowledge base/hub (on anything):

"Notebudd approached FATbit to redesign its website and promote it as one-stop knowledge hub for students."
https://www.fatbit.com/fab/notebudd-case-study-fatbit-redesi...

Looking at the other solutions, we seem to be overemphasizing the encyclopedia bit, but not really carefully thinking about "Anlaufstelle". That's not good.
