-OpenStreetMap is a project aimed squarely at creating and providing free geographic data such as street maps to anyone who wants them. This is because most maps you might think of as free actually have legal or technical restrictions on their use, holding back people from all walks of life who would like to use a map for one reason or another.

-OpenStreetMap has created a cool online editing interface that allows anyone to upload their GPS tracks and contribute to the map. The data created can then be used in lots of different ways for free - something that isn't possible with commercial mapping.
+The '''OpenStreetMap Wiki''' ('''OSM Wiki''') is a very active [[wiki]] supporting the [[OpenStreetMap]] (OSM) project.  The wiki has project {{tag|documentation}} for the main OpenStreetMap server software and also for the myriad of other {{tag|open source}} offerings in and around the project, and branching out to document many {{tag|Geography|geo}}-technologies in general (but mainly from an OpenStreetMap perspective). Like OpenStreetMap, the OpenStreetMap Wiki is overseen by a {{tag|Non-profit|not-for-profit}} organisation registered in {{tag|England}} and Wales, the [https://wiki.OpenStreetMap.org/wiki/Foundation OpenStreetMap Foundation] (OSMF).
+A section of the OpenStreetMap Wiki documents [[OpenHistoricalMap]], a companion project that maps the world in all of history using OpenStreetMap's software and ontology. A different spinoff project, OpenGeofiction, maintains a separate wiki, the [[OpenGeofiction Encyclopedia]].
