Wikipede

[edit]

If the centipede/milipede is chosen the name Wikipede as a play on Wikipedia sounds neat! User:ILVI

  • Yep - another reason to support the Wikipede! :) --mav
    • Great, now what about all 198 Wikipedias we host? -- user:zanimum

Wiki

[edit]

Wiki, the quick Wikipedia Wikipede. Minimal name for the centipede-like or millipede-like wikipede.

Miwiki

[edit]

I found it when I worked on an alternate ant's logo.

Why? More reasons :

  • In french 'ant' means 'fourmi' ....Last sentence 'mi' ;o)
  • And when I see beautiful thing, I always say that it's 'mimi' !!! :op
  • Me <---> Mi <---> My
  • 'Wiki'....I must explain why ? :o|

But this name could be used for every mascot, no ?

  • A name based on puns, ununderstandable in other languages. -- user:zanimum

Pedi

[edit]

Just playing around. Probably one part of Wikipedia will be in the name. So why only take the Wiki part ;-) Fantasy 14:50, 11 Aug 2003 (UTC)

  • It doesn't work in a good majority of other languages. -- user:zanimum

Pede

[edit]

If it's not a centipede or something leggily similar (as for instance, an owl or otter), this at least has the virtue of stressing the pedia part of WP. On the other hand, it is short enough to be perhaps unacceptable in some language I don't know. Lots of choices there, of course. ww 17:16, 2 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Pythia

[edit]

Pythia is pithy.

Wykee or Wyki

[edit]

I think Wykee is a nice twist, or Wyki. Ruiz

Wicked

[edit]

What about this one? LOL Ruiz

  • Wicked = bad. It's also a pun, puns don't work in other languages. -- user:zanimum
