Wiki Frakr was a satirical encyclopedia ('mockapedia') covering the Battlestar Galactica television series. It is similar in nature to Uncyclopedia, which doesn't take its subject matter seriously.
In essence, Wiki Frakr is to Battlestar Wiki what Uncyclopedia is to Wikipedia; if you needed a simile to make the connection.
Our purpose is to mock and create humorous encyclopedia entries for anything pertaining to Battlestar Galactica, including the television series and what not.
The prose should be encyclopedic-like, but with a humorous slant. Sometimes being scathing elicits humor, sometimes being ironic does better... depends on what the subject of the 'mockapedic' article happens to be. It's really a collaborative endeavor to create a humorous resource that fans and non-fans alike can share a jolly few laughs in.
Also, unlike the Battlestar Wiki, we do permit fan fiction... But it needs to be funny and enjoyable.
Some pages will be funnier than others, it just depends on the taste.
It was powered by MediaWiki, and used a custom skin from Paul Gu.
