In June 2008 there are articles in {{tag|Wiki English|English}}, {{tag|Wiki German|German}}, {{tag|Wiki French|French}}, {{tag|Wiki Croatian|Croatian}}, {{tag|Wiki Italian|Italian}}, {{tag|Wiki Portuguese|Portuguese}} and {{tag|Wiki Latin|Latin}}.  The wiki is very much more active.

'''Wikinfo.org''' is a wiki fork of the whole [[English Wikipedia]]!  The main difference (and perhaps the reason for the fork) is that Wikinfo supposedly tries portray a [http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Wikinfo:Sympathetic_point_of_view 'sympathetic point of view'] (SPOV) rather than Wikipedias' [[NPOV|'neutral point of view']] (NPOV).  In reality, the majority of pages are unmodified copies of Wikipedia content.
