'''Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis''' is a [[:Category:Wiki Multilingual|multilingual]], [[:Category:Open content|open content]] Pokémon wiki [[:Category:Encyclopedia|encyclopedia]] project. | |||
==History== | |||
The first person to conceive the idea of a {{tag|Pokémon}} wiki was Meowth346 of [[Pokémon Forever]]. Eventually, [[Bulbapedia]] itself was created in December [[:Category:FoundedIn2004|2004]], and opened to the public the following February. In April [[:Category:FoundedIn2005|2005]], nYoo suggested a [[:Category:Wiki German|German]]-language version. Later in the year, in August, the idea that would eventually spawn [[PokéWiki]] came to be. | |||
Due to their both being open content wiki Pokémon encyclopedias, PokéWiki and Bulbapedia soon allied to form Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis, hoping that soon more would join the group. Eventually, the [[:Category:Wiki Japanese|Japanese]]-language [[ポケモンWiki]] answered the call in June [[:Category:FoundedIn2006|2006]], having been created in April of that year. | |||
On 6 April [[:Category:FoundedIn2007|2007]], the [[:Category:Wiki Polish|Polish]]-language [[Wikinezka]] joined the group. The [[:Category:Wiki French|French]]-language [[Poképédia]] joined in September 2007, and the [[:Category:Wiki Portuguese|Portuguese]]-language [[LANDpedia]] joined in December, 2007. The [[:Category:Wiki Spanish|Spanish]]-language [[Pokéteca]] joined in August, [[:Category:FoundedIn2009|2009]], while the [[:Category:Wiki Italian|Italian]]-language [[Pokémon Central]] joined the group in August [[:Category:FoundedIn2010|2010]]. The [[:Category:Wiki Chinese|Chinese]]-language [[52Poké Wiki]] joined in March [[:Category:FoundedIn2013|2013]]. The [[:Category:Wiki Spanish|Spanish]]-language [[WikiDex]] joined in May [[:Category:FoundedIn2018|2018]]. | |||
The seven wikis [[interlink]] to each other, and navigation between articles on the same [[:Category:Wiki Topic|subject]] is made possible by links in their respective [[sidebar]]s. | |||
==Name== | |||
Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis is [[:Category:Wiki Latin|Latin]] for ''Encyclopedias of Pokémon''. This translation takes the idea that 'Pokémon' is both the singular ''and'' plural one step further, by using the singular 'Pokémonis' rather than the plural 'Pokémonum'. | |||
==Logo== | |||
The [[:Category:WikiLogo|logo]] of Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis is a Poké Ball image superimposed over a polar [[wp:Azimuthal equidistant projection|azimuthal equidistant projection]] of the planet [[:Category:Earth|Earth]], reminiscent of the [[wp:Flag of the United Nations|Flag of the United Nations]]. The color of the Poké Ball, as well as the color of the underlying Earth, differs among the individual members of Encyclopaediae Pokémonis: Bulbapedia's is green, PokéWiki's is teal, Pokémon Wiki's is blue, Wikinezka's is red, Poképédia's is yellow, Pokémon Central's is indigo, 52Poké Wiki's is vermilion, LANDpedia's was orange, and Pokéteca's was brown. | |||
