Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox website Шаблон:Lang (English: Universal Free Encyclopedia in Spanish) is a Spanish-language wiki-based online encyclopedia, released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0. It uses the MediaWiki software. It started as a fork of the Spanish Wikipedia.

History

The Шаблон:Lang was founded by contributors to the Spanish Wikipedia who decided to start an independent project. Led by Edgar Enyedy, they left Wikipedia on 26 February 2002, and created the new website, provided by the University of Seville for free, with the freely licensed articles of the Spanish Wikipedia.[1]

The reasons for the split are explained on Enciclopedia Libre.[2] Key issues included concerns about censorship and the possibility of advertising on Wikipedia.[3] Edgar Enyedy stated the main reasons for splitting at that time as:[1]

  • Perceived expectation that Wikipedia would soon start hosting advertisements.[1]
  • Non-English Wikipedias were running older versions of MediaWiki.
  • When national groups offered help in software development and maintenance, access to theШаблон:Nbspservers was denied.
  • The downloadable database dumps of Wikipedia content were highly outdated.
  • Wikipedia was hosted on a .com rather than a .org domain.

Post-split history

In 2011, Enyedy said that the sole reason for the failure of Шаблон:Lang as a long-term project was that it "was not intended to last. It was merely a form of pressure. Some of the goals were achieved, not all of them, but it was worth the cost." He further said "Nowadays, the romantic point of view is that EL survived and is still going strong." He argued that while the viewpoint is positive, it is not factual.[1]
