== Description ==
Wipipedia is a Web-based free-content encyclopaedia about the {{tag|fetish}} and {{tag|BDSM}} lifestyle. It is "maintained by the fetish community for the fetish community," and is a [[wiki]], written collaboratively by volunteers: anyone can create and edit articles about any area that they feel they have knowledge about or a valid contribution to make, although editors must be logged in (anonymous edits are not allowed).  It helps to provide an {{tag|education}} to those new to the lifestyle, or simply wanting to know more about it, and applies equally to {{tag|men}} and {{tag|women}}.
 
Topics include those on {{tag|Art}} and {{tag|literature}}, equipment, {{tag|Law}}, safety, [[:Category:Lifestyles|Alternative lifestyle]] and 'how-to' guides.
 
The site was begun in March [[2005]] by the creators of the [http://www.londonfetishscene.com/ London Fetish Scene] website.  Although hosted in [[:Category:British|England]] and written in English (not American) it strives to cover topics around the world.
The name derives from a portmanteau of "whip" and "Wikipedia".
The Wipipedia is published under the {{tag|GNU}} {{tag|Free Documentation License}} also mirrored by the (non-wiki) [http://www.informedconsent.co.uk/dictionary/ Informed Consent] website, where it has been called the 'Encyclopervia' and is currently called their 'Dictionary'.
 
The Wipipedia has over 1000 articles; it also includes advice, stories, and descriptions of real-life experiences by Wipipedians. The Wipipedia attracts about 10,000 page views per day. It attracts visitors from around the globe and is quoted or referenced by other web sites.
 
Where reference is made to more general topics in Wipipedia, it often links to topics in [[Wikipedia]] or specialist wikis. For readers interested in finding out about the fetish / BDSM lifestyle, Wipipedia is a good source of information, willingly linking elsewhere when needed.
