Activities/Proposals/Children's Wikipedia
From Wikimedia UK
< Activities | Proposals
Produce a children's version of Wikipedia.
Contents |
Outline [edit]
Most of the Wikipedia material, although complete and rigorous, is too complex for children (and many adults). Produce a simplified and more colourful version aimed at children aged about 14.
Benefits [edit]
Make the knowledgebase useful to children studying for exams (and many adults too). Can also, help children find out information.
Requirements [edit]

Discussion [edit]
- There is already the Simple English Wikipedia, though it is not specifically aimed at children. Such a project may not just be applicable to the UK, unless you focused on UK topics. Camaron · Christopher · talk 20:42, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
- I forgot to mention, there is already Wikipedia Selection for schools which does something similar. Camaron · Christopher · talk 14:08, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
