Wikisorcery

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

This project is a multinligual initiative aiming at producing content on Commons, Wikidata, Wikisource and Wikipedia about sorcery and witches.

It started on a project on the francophone Wikipedia to list all executed witches and produced an interractive map of executed witches.

Context[edit]

According to Wikipedia (en), Witchcraft or witchery broadly means the practice of and belief in magical skills and abilities exercised by solitary practitioners and groups. Witchcraft is a broad term that varies culturally and societally, and thus can be difficult to define with precision, and en:cross-cultural assumptions about the meaning or significance of the term should be applied with caution. Witchcraft often occupies a religious divinatory or medicinal role, and is often present within societies and groups whose en:cultural framework includes a magical en:world view.
