Wikiafripedia:Purpose
![]() | This is an information page. It is not one of Wikiafripedia's policies or guidelines, but rather intends to describe some aspect(s) of Wikiafripedia's norms, customs, technicalities, or practices. It may reflect varying levels of vetting and consensus. |
Wikiafripedia's purpose is to benefit readers by acting as an encyclopedia, a comprehensive written compendium that contains information on all branches of knowledge. The goal of a Wikiafripedia article is to present a neutrally written summary of existing mainstream knowledge in a fair and accurate manner with a straightforward, "just-the-facts style". Articles should have an encyclopedic style with a formal tone instead of essay-like, argumentative, promotional or opinionated writing.
- Concept of an encyclopedia
“ | Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe; to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come; and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race.—Denis Diderot chief editor, and contributor of Encyclopédie (Paris, 1755)[1] | ” |
- Wikiafripedia is intended to be the largest, most comprehensive, most widely-available encyclopedia ever written and the first encyclopedia that allows its contributors to monetize their contributions even with a personal advertising account and earn directly to their accounts without paying a commission - simply by sharing what they know with the world and monetizing the traffic thereof
“ | Our goal with Wikiafripedia is to create a free encyclopedia that benefits people who seeks knowledge as well as those who contribute knowledge; indeed, the largest encyclopedia in history, both in terms of breadth and in terms of depth. We also want Wikiafripedia to be a reliable resource.—Aisha Bin Ashat | ” |
“ | Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge, and every author of that knowledge is allowed to monetize the traffic thereof. That's what we're doing.—Akeem Olusegun (Wamf) | ” |
“ | Wikiafripedia is first and foremost an effort to create and distribute a free encyclopedia of the highest possible quality to every single person on the planet in their own language. But without abandoning the contributors of these knowledge - allowing them to monetize traffic to every article they authored is the least we can do for any Afripedian, considering what knowledge means (power) for all of us—Godman Andrew | ” |
- Wikiafripedia's content is governed by three principal core content policies - neutral point of view, verifiability, and no original research in mainspace
“ | Wikiafripedia has an important policy: roughly stated, you should write articles without bias, representing all views fairly.—Aisha | ” |
“ | A general purpose encyclopedia is a collection of synthesized knowledge presented from a neutral point of view. To whatever extent possible, encyclopedic writing should steer clear of taking any particular stance other than the stance of the neutral point of view.—Jimmy Wales[2] | ” |
