Welcome to Wikinp

Wikinp is Nepal’s open, non-profit knowledge hub — built by the community for the community. Anyone can contribute well-sourced articles to document Nepal’s people, places, history, science, and culture. It is 100% free, ad-free, and operated for public benefit.

What is Wikinp?

Wikinp is a community-driven encyclopedia focused on Nepal. Our mission is to keep knowledge accessible, neutral, and verifiable. Anyone — students, teachers, researchers, or everyday citizens — can write, edit, and improve articles in clear, simple language.

Wikinp starts in English and will gradually expand to Nepali and other languages, so that knowledge reaches both local and global audiences.

Use Wikinp to record Nepal’s rich history, living cultures, scientific ideas in local context, and important social topics — building a reliable national archive for future generations.

Why Wikinp Matters
  • Preserves local knowledge: Dialects, traditions, and community stories are documented in digital form.
  • Free and open: Anyone with internet can read and contribute factual, referenced information.
  • People-powered: Content is not controlled by any company or institution; it grows through public contribution and review.
Who Can Contribute?

Anyone can contribute — no degree or special software required. You can:

  • Write about your hometown’s history, heritage sites, or festivals
  • Profile local heroes, educators, artists, or community changemakers
  • Explain scientific or educational topics in simple terms
  • Translate useful global knowledge into Nepal’s context
How Contributions Work
  • Submit an article using the Wikinp form (infobox + sections + references).
  • Provide at least two independent, reliable sources (news, books, research, official sites).
  • Editors review for neutrality, accuracy, and formatting before publication.
Our Vision

With thousands of contributors, Wikinp will become Nepal’s trusted, multilingual knowledge base — built for us, by us — and freely available to everyone.

Join the Movement

Wikinp is more than a website. It is a public effort to build a smarter, better-informed Nepal. Every well-sourced paragraph you write strengthens our shared knowledge. Start contributing today — your ideas matter here.

“Wikinp is about giving every Nepali a voice — and keeping knowledge free, neutral, and powerful.”

Important Note
  • Wikinp is not for self-promotion or advertising.
  • Articles must be neutral, fact-based, and supported by independent sources.
  • Personal blogs, self-written press releases, or unverifiable claims are not accepted.
Suggest Edit — How it Works

Suggest Edit lets any reader propose corrections or improvements without changing the live article directly.

  • Quote the text to be corrected and provide the updated version.
  • Explain briefly why the change is needed (error, outdated info, missing detail).
  • Attach at least two independent sources (news, books, journals, official sites).
  • Optional: attach a copyright-safe image or supporting document.

All suggestions are reviewed by editors before being published. If rejected, the reason will be shared for transparency.

Editorial Rules
  • Write in a neutral, encyclopedic tone.
  • Use independent, reliable sources for verification.
  • No personal opinions, promotions, or unverifiable claims.
  • End every article with a References section.
Future Plan

Currently, all submissions go through admin review. As Wikinp grows, we will expand to:

  • More Editors & Admins: trusted volunteers gaining review rights.
  • Direct Publishing: verified contributors may publish instantly.
  • Community Moderation: edits, deletions, and disputes handled openly.
  • Multilingual Growth: Nepali and other languages will be added.
