*An online encyclopedia that may have inspired many Wikis, such as [[Chewiki|this very place]]. Also a frequent target of vandalism, though this is usually cleaned-up quickly.
An online encyclopedia that any user, [[anonymous]] or logged into an account, can edit (except on pages that are protected/semi-protected). It runs on some engine called "MediaWiki", who's logo is pretty much some big flower with brackets around it.
 
 
 
Wikipedia has inspired many Wikis; such as wikiHow, [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]], and even [[Chewiki|this very place]]. Also a frequent target of vandalism, though this is usually cleaned-up quickly.
 
 
 
Wikipedia has recently changed its default layout, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia&diff=361971836&oldid=361971521 resulting in backlash.]
 
  
 
==How It Came To Be==
 
==How It Came To Be==
Wikipedia was created by James "Jimbo" Wales. He created it because he wanted to create a compilation of all the knowledge in the world. This is despite the fact that he rejects things he considers "[[Wrong|not notable]]". It is believed that an overdose on information compiled on Wikipedia may greatly expand one's vocabulary to astronomical levels, possibly to the irritation of the flesh creatures around yourself.

==Common Vandalism==
 
Wikipedia is subject to various vandalism. Don't believe us? Check through the Recent Changes page there...if [[you]] can keep up. Seriously, those guys are quick bastards.
 
 
*Some vandalism may consist of [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sonny_With_a_Chance&diff=353429369&oldid=353422057 changing around random text], or [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Christopher_Walken&diff=329275464&oldid=328274729 altering statistics to say rather absurd stuff]. In fact, it has been theorized that 900000000000000300000d000% of vandalism consists of altering percentages.
 
*Some vandalism [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=October_29&action=historysubmit&diff=322832377&oldid=322819712 consists of unsourced facts.]
 
*Some vandalism is added by spambots, posting grammatically crude messages with external links about odd stuff nobody cares about. By the way, you can get "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0md6Flcrd0s Celebyrx for dogs rimadayl]", and free Viagra, at many local stores, worldwide!
 
**[http://youchew.net/wiki/index.php?title=Chain_Poop&diff=prev&oldid=78525 Looks like spammers have even targeted ''this'' very Wiki.]
 
***Hell, 99% of Chewiki's [http://www.youchew.net/wiki/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block Block Log] contains [[dead]] spambots.
 
*Some vandals may just simply blank a page without explanation.
