I think a particular hurdle for a standalone WMF-affiliated kidipedia project
is the COPPA, and other similar laws both in the US and elsewhere that could
potentially increase civil liability. Another hurdle is that America is very
aware, perhaps overly aware, of the potential safety risks when
The English Wikipedia has a “plain language” wikipedia, the Simple English
Wikipedia. It’s targeted not only towards children, but also towards people who
aren’t fluent in English and/or have learning disabilities. A few “internet
hack” memes say “If you can’t understand the Wikipedia article,

Is that one sentence at least backed up by a source that confirms the
information? Were the stubs possibly created by a bot instead of human? (Hey,
it’s happened before!) If the answers to the questions I asked were “No” and
“Yes,” then it reflects even worse on the quality of articles written
One concern I have is that all “oldbies” like myself have all seen bots
basically decay after whomever is maintaining goes inactive. Of course, this
could be mostly rectified by having the AI be open source. This leaves the
“people” aspect; that is, not only does the AI need to be maintained,
Of course Wikipedia has an article on it. :-) It refers to “the Middle East and
North Africa.”

I wouldn’t be surprised if there was already an official Wikimedia blog. I do
have a vague memory of one. However, I don’t believe it’s a wiki, just a blog.
There could be benefits to a non-Wikimedia wiki that’s used in a blog-like
fashion, but I really don’t see any use for one that’s
I know there are cultures in the world that regard English as a litmus test
with regards to whether or not you’re educated, and was wondering if that added
a layer of nuance to the conversation. However, this changed my mind:

While a good stop-gap measure, VPNs can be expensive enough that it’s not
really a permanent solution. The ultimate solution is to get Commons unblocked,
if that’s possible. Of course, getting it unblocked might prove impossible.
