| Details of the proposal | |
| Project description | An AI-assisted knowledge collaboration platform that enforces source verification and dynamic trust scoring. It will complement Wikipedia by focusing on real-time collaborative editing with built-in credibility validation mechanisms. As a Wikimedia project, it can leverage existing content while introducing innovative quality control tools. |
| Is it a multilingual wiki? | Initial launch as a multilingual wiki (like Wikidata), with language-specific subdomains later |
| Potential number of languages | Content in all Wikimedia-supported languages, with AI-assisted translation alignment |
| Proposed tagline | "Verified Knowledge, Collaboratively Built" |
| Proposed URL | https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/OpenPedia_(proposal) |
| Technical requirements | |
| New features to require | Requires new extensions:
ForceReferences (mandatory source validation), TrustScore (automated credibility rating), StructuredDebate (replaces talk pages). Needs integration with academic databases (DOI, PubMed) and machine learning APIs. |
| Development wiki | Test instance on Wikimedia Cloud VPS: https://openpedia-dev.wmcloud.org |
| Interested participants | |
| Initial team from WikiProject Reliability + AI researchers | |
