OmegaWiki is self-described as a "collaborative project to produce a free, multilingual resource in every language, with lexicological, terminological and thesaurus information." In other words, "information on all words of all languages," a multi-lingual dictionary whose entries have definitions translated to as many languages as possible and which provides synonyms and translations for the word in even more languages. Significantly, the Omegawiki data is available in a relational database, making it is possible to use the wiki's data for many purposes.

As of March 29, 2009, Omegawiki had portals in 292 languages, representing the theoretical number of languages a word could be defined in. In its paging structure, Omegawiki differentiates between ''expressions'' and ''defined meanings'' (which correspond in a printed dictionaty roughly to entries or words and to numbered definitions). The number of expressions in various languages is [http://www.omegawiki.org/extensions/Wikidata/util/stats.php readily accessed] at Omegawiki page. The most recent check of this information showed 10 languages with more than 10,000 expressions, another 54 languages with 500 or more expressions, 105 with fewer than that but still more than five expressions, and 64 languages with five or fewer expressions.:

'''OmegaWiki''', {{tag|founded in 2004}}, is self-described as a "collaborative project to produce a free, {{tag|multilingual}} dictionary in every {{tag|language}}, with {{Cambridge-Dictionary|lexicology|lexicological}}, {{Cambridge-Dictionary|terminological}} and {{tag|thesaurus}} information".  In other words, "{{tag|information}} on all words of all languages", a multilingual {{tag|dictionary}} whose entries have {{Cambridge-Dictionary|definition}}s translated to as many languages as possible and which provides {{Cambridge-Dictionary|synonym}}s and {{Cambridge-Dictionary|translation}}s for the word in even more languages.  Significantly, the OmegaWiki {{tag|data}} is available in a relational {{tag|database}}, and it uses '{{tag|wikidata}}', making it possible to use the [[wiki]]s data for many purposes.

OmegaWiki uses an unusual [[:Category:Wiki Edit Mode|edit mode]] – "As an anonymous user ({{tag|OpenEdit}}, aka [[IP editor]]), you can only add new data.  If you would like to also modify existing data, please create an account and indicate your languages on your user page" ({{tag|LoginToEdit}}).  The primary language used on the wiki is {{tag|British}} {{tag|Wiki English|English}}, but all other languages can be user selectable. The wiki content is released under [https://omegawiki.org/Help:Licensing two licenses]: the {{tag|Wiki GNU Free Documentation License|GNU Free Documentation License 1.2}} (GFDL 1.2) and the {{tag|Wiki Creative Commons Attribution|Creative Commons Attribution 2.5}} (CC-BY 2.5).
 
As of February 2011, OmegaWiki had portals in 292 [[:Category:Wiki language|languages]], representing the {{Cambridge-Dictionary|theoretical}} number of languages a word could be defined in.  In its paging structure, OmegaWiki differentiates between ''[[OmegaWiki:Help:Expression|expressions]]'' and ''[[OmegaWiki:Help:DefinedMeaning|defined meanings]]'' (which correspond in a printed dictionary roughly to entries or words and to numbered definitions).  The number of [[OmegaWiki:Special:Ow_statistics?showstat=exp|expressions]] in various languages is [[OmegaWiki:Special:Ow_statistics?showstat=dm|readily accessible]] at one of the OmegaWiki statistics pages.  The most recent check in July 2023 of this information showed 11 languages with more than 10,000 expressions, another 63 languages with 500 or more expressions, 151 with fewer than than but still more than five expressions, and 57 languages with five or fewer expressions.  As of July 2023, its stats showed it had 1,051 languages, [[OmegaWiki:Special:Ow_statistics?showstat=dm|51,229 defined meanings]], and [[OmegaWiki:Special:Ow_statistics?showstat=exp|567,060 expressions]].

OmegaWiki, founded in 2004, is self-described as a "collaborative project to produce a free, multilingual dictionary in every language, with lexicological, terminological and thesaurus information". In other words, "information on all words of all languages", a multilingual dictionary whose entries have definitions translated to as many languages as possible and which provides synonyms and translations for the word in even more languages. Significantly, the OmegaWiki data is available in a relational database, and it uses 'wikidata', making it possible to use the wikis data for many purposes.

OmegaWiki uses an unusual edit mode – "As an anonymous user (OpenEdit, aka IP editor), you can only add new data. If you would like to also modify existing data, please create an account and indicate your languages on your user page" (LoginToEdit). The primary language used on the wiki is British English, but all other languages can be user selectable. The wiki content is released under two licenses: the GNU Free Documentation License 1.2 (GFDL 1.2) and the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 (CC-BY 2.5).

As of February 2011, OmegaWiki had portals in 292 languages, representing the theoretical number of languages a word could be defined in. In its paging structure, OmegaWiki differentiates between expressions and defined meanings (which correspond in a printed dictionary roughly to entries or words and to numbered definitions). The number of expressions in various languages is readily accessible at one of the OmegaWiki statistics pages. The most recent check in July 2023 of this information showed 11 languages with more than 10,000 expressions, another 63 languages with 500 or more expressions, 151 with fewer than than but still more than five expressions, and 57 languages with five or fewer expressions. As of July 2023, its stats showed it had 1,051 languages, 51,229 defined meanings, and 567,060 expressions.
