(Instead of creating a separate introduction for this useful resource, you could read the general introduction of WikiPilipinas through its About page, partly reproduced here.) WikiPilipinas is an online, free content encyclopedia on the Philippines. In addition to encyclopedic entries on history, culture, sports, politics, and other knowledge areas, WikiPilipinas also features the following components:
  • A Who's Who of prominent Filipinos
  • A directory of schools, corporations, government institutions, and more
  • An almanac of useful and interesting records and data on the Philippines
  • A community portal for discussing and preserving the heritage of different cultural and social groups in the Philippines

The name WikiPilipinas is a portmanteau of the words wiki (a type of collaborative website) and Pilipinas, the Filipino term for Philippines. The project was conceptualized in February 2007 by the editors of Filipiniana.net. Together, Filipiniana.net and WikiPilipinas.org aim to become the two primary portals to Philippine knowledge.

WikiPilipinas is an ongoing project written collaboratively by Philippine volunteers around the world in an effort to build the largest Philippine knowledgebase. With few exceptions, the contents of WikiPilipinas can be edited at any time, by anyone with access to the Internet, but contributions should be guided by the policies and guidelines that WikiPilipinas editors have identified. In this respect, WikiPilipinas is similar to Wikipedia; however, WikiPilipinas differs from Wikipedia in some very important ways.
