Wikiscope/Name

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

I originally thought of Wikiscope, as it sounds nice and gives the idea of both Wikimedia and that it is a view of all the projects (like telescope). But this is, of course, debatable. Here are the suggestions. Feel free to add your own.

Wikiscope[edit]

Idea
Wiki like Wikimedia, scope like telescope.
Pros
Sounds nice IMHO, easy to remember.
Cons
Ambiguous.
Comments

Wikiwatch[edit]

Idea
Wiki like Wikimedia, watch because it watches all the other projects.
Pros
Alliterative, easy to remember.
Cons
Very ambiguous.
Comments
It also sounds like a watchdog organization. --Cromwellt|talk|contribs 06:21, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Wikindex[edit]

Idea
Wiki like Wikimedia, index because it indexes all the other projects by topic.
Pros
easy to remember.
Cons
the word "kind" jumps out; may not be translatable into non-roman alphaets
Comments
Bit too much like WIKINDX, http://wikindx.sourceforge.net

Wikiview[edit]

Idea
A wiki that gives an overview over all Wikimedia projects.
Pros
"View" is a simple word and is very widely known, its meaning is obvious.
Cons
May be difficult to pronounce for the non-english-speaking people.
