'''WikiPartner''' is an online [[encyclopedia]] and knowledge platform established in 2026. It publishes articles about people, companies, organizations, places, and other subjects using an editorial review process and source-based article structure.

The project was developed to provide a structured place for documenting subjects that may receive limited coverage across existing online encyclopedias and knowledge databases. WikiPartner uses [[MediaWiki]] software and combines encyclopedia-style articles with editorial review, article histories, categories, and source documentation.

WikiPartner is intended to operate as an independent knowledge platform rather than as a mirror or copy of [[Wikipedia]]. Its content policies include guidelines covering notability, reliable sources, editorial review, corrections, conflicts of interest, and article submissions.

== History ==

Development of WikiPartner began in 2026 as an independent online knowledge project. The platform was created with an initial focus on building structured and reviewed articles about people, businesses, organizations, and other subjects that may have limited representation in existing global knowledge resources.

During its development, WikiPartner adopted [[MediaWiki]] as its publishing software. The platform was configured to support encyclopedia features including article histories, categories, internal links, source citations, contributor accounts, and editorial review.

The project also developed its own policies for article eligibility, sourcing, reviewing, corrections, and publication.

== Content and scope ==

WikiPartner covers a range of encyclopedic subjects, including:

* People
* Companies
* Organizations
* Places
* Educational institutions
* Business and industry
* Technology
* Culture
* Other subjects considered suitable under its editorial and notability policies

The platform is not limited to a single country or industry. Its early content development has included an emphasis on subjects from regions and communities that may have comparatively limited representation in major global knowledge databases.

Articles are intended to provide factual summaries of their subjects rather than advertising, promotional profiles, or personal biographies written by the subjects themselves.

== Editorial model ==

WikiPartner uses an editorial model in which submitted or created articles may be reviewed before being treated as approved content.

The editorial process is designed to assess factors including:

* Whether the subject meets WikiPartner's notability requirements
* Whether important statements can be supported by reliable sources
* Whether the article is written from a neutral point of view
* Whether promotional or unsupported claims have been removed
* Whether potential conflicts of interest have been disclosed or appropriately handled
* Whether the article follows WikiPartner's formatting and content guidelines

Articles may be updated when new information or better sources become available.

WikiPartner maintains policies covering editorial standards, source selection, article suggestions, corrections, complaints, copyright, and reuse of content.

== Notability ==

WikiPartner uses notability criteria to determine whether a subject is suitable for a standalone article.

Notability is considered separately from popularity. A subject is not necessarily considered notable solely because it has a large social media following, operates a business, holds a professional title, or has published information about itself.

The platform's notability process is intended to consider the availability, quality, independence, and relevance of information about a subject.

WikiPartner's notability rules are maintained independently and are not required to be identical to those used by Wikipedia or other encyclopedias.

== Sources and verification ==

WikiPartner articles are intended to use citations to identify the sources supporting important factual claims.

Sources may vary depending on the subject and may include news publications, books, academic material, government records, official documents, industry publications, and other sources considered suitable under WikiPartner's source guidelines.

First-party sources may be used for appropriate factual information about a subject, but they are distinguished from independent sources when evaluating notability and independent coverage.

Source quality and independence may be considered during editorial review.

== Contributions ==

WikiPartner allows registered contributors to participate in the development of its content.

Contributions may include creating articles, improving existing articles, suggesting subjects, correcting factual information, adding sources, and updating outdated material.

Changes to articles are recorded through the platform's revision history. Content may also be reviewed by users with editorial or reviewing permissions.

The separation between contribution and editorial review is intended to allow community participation while maintaining review standards for published information.

== Corrections and article updates ==

WikiPartner articles can be revised as new information becomes available.

Readers, contributors, article subjects, and other parties may report factual errors or suggest corrections through the platform's correction and contact processes. Requested changes are subject to editorial review rather than being automatically accepted.

Previous versions of articles can be recorded through MediaWiki's revision history system.

== Licensing ==

Unless otherwise stated, WikiPartner textual content is made available under the '''Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International''' license ([[CC BY-SA 4.0]]).

Individual images, media files, quotations, or externally sourced material may be subject to separate copyright or licensing terms.

The platform maintains separate copyright and reuse policies governing the use and redistribution of WikiPartner content.

== Technology ==

WikiPartner is built using [[MediaWiki]], the open-source wiki software originally developed for Wikipedia.

The platform supports features commonly associated with wiki-based knowledge systems, including:

* Article revision histories
* Internal linking
* Categories
* Contributor accounts
* Article editing
* Source citations
* Printable article versions
* Editorial and reviewer permissions

WikiPartner also uses custom design and editorial components developed for its own publishing and review model.

== DataPartner ==

'''DataPartner''' is a related structured-data project developed alongside WikiPartner.

While WikiPartner is designed primarily for human-readable encyclopedia articles, DataPartner is intended to organize structured facts about entities such as people, companies, organizations, and places.

The two projects are designed around the broader goal of making factual information available in both readable and structured formats.
