Wikipedia

Wikipedia is a website that parodies Uncyclopedia, which parodies Decyclopedia, the website you're on right now.

History
All the way back in 1999, Jimbo Whales started Nupedia, the predecessor to Wikipedia. It was a wiki project that had a verification process (to prove that each new article was a human). It flopped and went defunct in 2003.

In 2001, Jimbo Whales decided that people needed a free encyclopedia to edit, so he started Wikipedia, which had twice as many letters before the -pedia, making it twice as good an idea and meant that it would be twice as successful. In 2002, someone made a porn article, but as the admins couldn't delete articles at the time, it stayed. Now Wikipedia has a lot of porn.

In 2008, Google started their own wiki project, which was called Knol, but first, it had to get rid of Wikipedia. Thus...

Wikipedia Zero
In 2013, Wikipedia Zero was born! It was a secret project by Google to get rid of Wikipedia by blanking its pages, one page at a time. However, it was very ineffective, as the content was almost always immediately restored. In 2018, the program ended, because of its ineffectiveness and because the U.S. government slapped a $1 billion fine onto Google for operating it.

Content
It is very content with itself. After all, it is the largest MediaWiki wiki.

Controversy
Corrupt admins. Especially Jeff G.
 * It isn’t as funny as Decyclopedia. This has caused lots of people to migrate here.
 * It has racism. Using the n-word is just mean.

I got blocked for no reason.
 * Potato.
