Translingual Wikipedia

[edit]

This was proposed (by Deryck Chan) in the previous naming discussion, and still seems appropriate.

Discussion

[edit]
  • It might be relevant to review the conversation surrounding the original proposal. --Waldyrious (talk) 07:53, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Weak oppose due to the "Wikipedia" in the name. This project should not be limited to encyclopedic articles; instead, it should enable (and encourage) the community to produce multilingual content of many kinds (for Wikivoyage, Wikiversity, Wikinews, Wikidata item descriptions, Meta page contents, Commons category descriptions, etc.). I would suggest the proposer to consider "Translingual Wiki" instead. --Waldyrious (talk) 21:52, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Oppose It's not a Wikipedia but a few sentences of Wikidata statements being turned into natural language. It's misleading, especially for most readers who aren't very active editors, and inadequate to give it a 'Wikipedia' name. This is closer to Wikidata than to Wikipedia so I wonder why there is only one proposal with Wikidata in the name. --Prototyperspective (talk) 23:16, 21 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
