Wikipedia

Wikipedia - main page http://www.wikipedia.org/ - is an online multilingual free encyclopedia to which users can contribute. There are a number of African language editions of Wikipedia (see below).

In August 2006, an informal initiative was begun to assist in the development of African language Wikipedias. It uses a Yahoogroup named "AfropnoneWikis" at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/afrophonewikis/
