There was a request for comment regarding proposals to change the name of the Wikimedia Foundation to use the name Wikipedia. The use of Wikipedia as a name for the Foundation was thoroughly rejected by the community. |
The Wikimedia Foundation Board of trustees has resolved to pause the Movement Brand Project until March 2021. Read the full resolution on the Wikimedia Foundation Governance Wiki. |

“Wikipedia” is our best-protected and most well known trademark, so it is relatively easy and straightforward to begin to use “Wikipedia” more broadly and prominently in movement branding. In general, we do not own “Wiki” as a registered trademark, and it may be extremely challenging to obtain sufficient protection of “Wiki” as a stand-alone mark to be able to use it in formal contexts (such as the names of movement organizations). To make this hybrid structure work, we would need to be intentional and careful about how we use “Wiki” as a stand-alone term. There will be organizations who use or will begin to use the Wiki name causing confusion around the delineation between who is part and not-part of our movement.
All proposals seek localization from communities. Initial recommendation: “Wiki” and “Wikipedia” stay the same as they are currently represented in different languages, and all other terms (“Foundation”, “group”, “Antarctica”, “Penguins”) are localized.
