Talk:Differences between Wikipedia, Wikimedia, MediaWiki, and wiki/Archive

All of these concepts put together are sometimes described by the portmanteau "WikipmediaWiki." Leucosticte (talk) 13:44, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

What is the main meaning of "Wikimedia"?
Doesn't the term "Wikimedia", when used by itself, usually refer to the Wikimedia Foundation? Everything else seems to require a qualifier - sites are Wikimedia projects, servers are Wikimedia servers (I don't know if this page really needs an entry about "Wikimedia servers", by the way), and so on, but when people say "Wikimedia" by itself, I think they're usually referring to the nonprofit organization - like "How many people work for Wikimedia?". On the English-language Wikipedia, "Wikimedia" redirects to "Wikimedia Foundation", for what it's worth. Yaron Koren (talk) 14:14, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
 * @Yaron Koren: No. Wikimedia Foundation is only one of the organizations existing inside the Wikimedia movement. It might be the biggest and the richest one, but there are many different Wikimedia organizations all around the world. Wikimedia refers to the movement as a whole; the English Wikipedia just got that wrong. odder (talk) 12:51, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

Video
Nothing against The State of Wikipedia video on YouTube, but as long as it doesn't come with a license for an upload to commons it has no business here. –Be..anyone (talk) 00:50, 3 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Why is that? Yaron Koren (talk) 01:52, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
 * It does not have a free license&mdash;i.e., I haven't found one&mdash;and its purpose appears to be promotional (for the company of the creators, apart from Wikipedia.) –Be..anyone (talk) 03:06, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
