Hello,
Is this Android application [1] endorsed by Wikiapiary?
The only reference or link to the app I could find [2] was for User:Admin [3], which seems a normal user of the website (despite its name).

Hi Jesús,
wow, I did not know that something like this is possible. I personally was not aware of this until your very email.
Let's wait for Mark to comment about this before we clear the stuff.
Cheers,
Karsten

Interesting.
No, the app is not endorsed by WikiApiary. But, fiendishly, I wonder if we can claim the app and its revenue? The MediaWiki.org link does not seem to be from a spammer, but from an actual user of the app.
We should probably reach out to them.
Mark.

I'd say "User:Electopedia" from mediawiki.org is the same as "User:Admin" from Wikiapiary, The later one mentions in his user page a wiki with the same name.
And if you look at the domain of those wikis (*.guail.es) and the developer name (GUAIL) and email (guail*@*), you may conclude he's the developer of that app.
He's also subscribed to this mailing list. We have probably reached to them already :)
