Abstract Wikipedia/Abstract Wikipedia naming contest/WikiNexus

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

WikiNexus

[edit]

The name WikiNexus combines "Wiki", representing the collaborative and open nature of the wikimedia movement, and "Nexus", meaning a central hub or connection point. Together, the name evokes the idea of a universal connection hub for knowledge - where abstract knowledge structures and natural languages meet.

  4. Support Support This name didn't immediately click with me (perhaps with the CamelCase capitalization it feels a little too flashy?), but I found I've warmed up to the name. I like how it invites thinking of the project as a convergence point, both for content that then spreads to multiple language-specific projects, and for the people, which are bought together to work towards a shared resource that benefits everyone, even those outside one's community — a nice call back to the core of the wiki spirit! --Waldyrious (talk) 23:17, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  6.  Weak support where the weakness is only due to the comparison noted by Arlo Barnes, which I can't say I knew prior to this contest. Mahir256 (talk) 21:12, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  9.  Weak support since I don't see how it relates to the natural language or computational aspects of the new project, but it at least invokes the idea of being a source for the sister projects. YoshiRulz (talk) 13:52, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
