This is very cool! Are there any children oriented wikis in other languages?

Hi All,

I'm pleased to let you know that Wikimini in French (http://fr.wikimini.org) has reached 10 000 articles. For those who don't know our project, Wikimini is a free encyclopedia written by children and young teenagers, both at school and at home. It currently exists in French and the site is based on Mediawiki (same software used by Wikipedia).

Word cloud:

On this very special occasion, our aspiring encyclopedists were asked to choose 3 words that would best describe the project in their eyes. A word cloud was built using the words we had received and their frequency. I wanted to share it with you, so I translated it in English:

I hope you'll find it interesting and inspiring.
