Googlepedia

Neologism created by bloggers when news broke that Google was offering Wikimedia hosting; as such, any content is original research and speculation. Furthermore, the entire concept is out of date, since nothing new has come of the Google talks, but Yahoo! -- and a handful of other organisations -- have gone ahead and offered hosting. Being discussed once-upon-a-time in blogs doesn't make a topic encyclopedic. - IMSoP 14:37, 7 May 2005 (UTC)
