WikiApiary was created by [[Jamie Thingelstad]], aka {{U|Thingles}}, with assistance from [[Karsten Hoffmeyer]] who edits under his username [[User:Kghbln|Kghbln]] (and others). It allows anyone to edit, providing they register and {{tag|ConfirmEmail|confirm a valid e-mail}} address. Much of the page updating on the site is carried out by three [[wikiapiary:WikiApiary:Bots|bot accounts]]. Originally created in {{tag|Wiki English|English}}, WikiApiary was expanded to include other [[:Category:Wiki Language|languages]], including: {{tag|Wiki German|German}}, formal German, {{tag|Wiki Greek|Greek}}, {{tag|Wiki French|French}}, and {{tag|Wiki Russian|Russian}}. More recent language additions include {{tag|Wiki Catalan|Catalan}}, {{tag|Wiki Spanish|Spanish}}, {{tag|Wiki Japanese|Japanese}}, {{tag|Wiki Korean|Korean}}, {{tag|Wiki Turkish|Turkish}}, and {{tag|Wiki Chinese|Chinese}}. | WikiApiary was created by [[Jamie Thingelstad]], aka {{U|Thingles}}, with assistance from [[Karsten Hoffmeyer]] who edits under his username [[User:Kghbln|Kghbln]] (and others).

I think [[WikiIndex]] and WikiApiary are very different. Notably, WikiApiary is only about the MediaWiki-verse, where WikiIndex is about the entire [[Wikiverse]]. WikiApiary is more about {{tag|data}}, WikiIndex is more about text and background . . . I've considered adding some timeline features to WikiApiary so that [[user]]s and more importantly bots could start to build a history for a wiki. I had considered supporting non-MediaWiki wikis at one point, but no other wikis have such robust API's and now WikiApiary is so entrenched in the MediaWiki ecosystem I have little interest in trying to support others. [[WikiApiary:Skin:Skins|Skin:Main Page]] and [[WikiApiary:Extension:Extensions|Extension:Main Page]] would be less useful if it were generic. For MediaWiki sites on WikiIndex it would be really cool to be able to feed a live infobox from WikiApiary with data on usage. Some sort of Widget or something. . ."</blockquote> | ||
