Hi It seems that someone has set up a walon encyclopedia using the mediawiki software (ie. the software developed for and used by wikipedia): http://wikipedia.walon.org/ The problem is obviously that they call themselves the walon "wikipedia", even though they are not sanctioned to do so by wikimedia (governing body of all the wikipedias & wikiquotes, wiktionary, etc.). I think this would constitute the kind of term dilution that are dangerous to our aspirations for trademarking "wikipedia". Best, Sascha Noyes -- Please encrypt all email.
