1 Abstract Wikipedia link
  • abstracting from concrete languages
  • established name for the project
  • contains "Wikipedia", but it is not only for Wikipedia
  • contains "Wikipedia" people know, but is not like the Wikipedia people know
  • "abstract" is ambiguous, and can refer to research paper summaries, art, mathematical abstraction, etc.

Legal: Using an established trademark such as Wikipedia as part of the name gives us a lot of legal certainty.
Branding: OK branding — Existing name. It implies modification of the existing Wikipedia platform but deviates from the movement naming practice of using a Wiki prefix which creates a disconnect.
2 Multilingual Wikipedia link
  • intended to be multilingual, ie. usable by people with different mother tongues
  • straightforward, simple, clear, and plain
  • contains "Wikipedia", but it is not only for Wikipedia
  • contains "Wikipedia" people know, but is not like the Wikipedia people know
  • Wikipedia is already multlingual

Legal: Using an established trademark such as Wikipedia as part of the name gives us a lot of legal certainty.
Branding: Difficult branding — Deviates from movement naming practices and could be misread as a description of Wikipedia instead of a project itself. It is also confusing and misleading as Wikipedia is already multilingual.
3 Wikiabstracts link
  • generating data-based short texts similar to academic abstracts
  • conveys what it is about
  • seems confusing, and plays with a "misconception" about the project aim
  • "abstract" is ambiguous, and can refer to research paper summaries, art, mathematical abstraction, etc.

Legal: More in-depth legal review would be needed if this option wins, to determine if we could adequately protect it as a trademark.
Branding: Good branding — Makes clear use of movement naming practices (Wiki prefix) but uses a common word (abstracts) usually used to describe summaries which could be misleading.
4 Wikigenerator link
  • a project that generates text for Wikipedia
  • clear, immediately understandable, creative
  • will be confused with generative AI
  • sounds like a project to generate wikis (like Incubator), not just text for some wikis

Legal: More in-depth legal review would be needed if this option wins, to determine if we could adequately protect it as a trademark.
Branding: Great branding — Makes clear use of movement naming practices (Wiki prefix) and uses a common term (generator) to clearly communicate the project’s functionality.
5 Proto-Wiki link
  • "proto" meaning "before" or "original", as in "proto language"
  • following the pattern of Meta-Wiki; rolls off the tongue
  • unusual pattern with the hyphen and capitalization
  • this project is not a predecessor to a "real" wiki, which the name suggests

Legal: More in-depth legal review would be needed if this option wins, to determine if we could adequately protect it as a trademark.
Branding: Difficult branding — Somewhat follows movement naming practices by using Wiki as a suffix but uses an uncommon word (Proto) that could lead to misinterpretation and lack of clarity on what the project is about.
