Template:Wikimedia Foundation: Difference between revisions

The '''[[Wikimedia Foundation]]''' ('''WMF'''), founded June [[:Category:FoundedIn2003|2003]], is the [[:Category:Nonprofit|non-profit]] [[:Category:Organization|organization]] responsible for a very large number (over 850 in total) of very active [[wiki]]s, grouped together and known as 'projects'; as well as the [[:Category:Wiki Engine|wiki engine]] software initially developed for them known as [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]].  The foundations' [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] projects include [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] (encyclopedias), [[:Category:Wikiquote|Wikiquote]] (quotations), [[:Category:Wikibooks|Wikibooks]] (open content textbooks), [[:Category:Wikinews|Wikinews]] (news source), [[:Category:Wikisource|Wikisource]] (free content primary and secondary source texts), [[Wikispecies]] (a free species directory), [[:Category:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]] (dictionary), and many others as listed below.  Most of these projects have separate wiki versions written in [[:Category:Wiki Multilingual|many]] different [[:Category:Wiki Language|languages]].  There is also the [[Wikimedia Commons]] (for images, videos and other media files that can be used by all the Wikimedia projects), [[Wikimedia Wikidata|Wikidata]] (central space for data used on all WMF projects), and the [[Wikimedia Meta-Wiki]] (for issues common to all Wikimedia projects).  Its most recent project, [[:Category:Wikivoyage|Wikivoyage]] (a 'travelpedia'), was added in late 2012.
