Simple English Wikipedia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simple English Wikipedia is an English edition of the Wikipedia encyclopedia, written in Basic English or "layman's terms". The site's stated aim is to be useful for children, those learning English as a foreign language, those wanting to know basic information about a topic (not in depth), and to be a basis for translating articles to other Wikipedias.[1]
Many articles are shorter than their English Wikipedia counterparts.
On July 26, 2006, the Simple English Wikipedia reached 10,000 articles. As of March 23, 2007, it has 14,922 articles, 40,361 pages and 8,919 registered users.
