The official Wikipedia Android app.
It is an electronic encyclopedia that is completely free and available online, containing over 32 million entries written in 280 different languages, making it one of the most detailed and widely cited sources of information created by humanity.
This app was first launched in January 2001.
The content includes over 1 million English articles written in 280 different languages, including French, Polish, Swedish, Portuguese, Spanish, and more. Wikipedia is convenient, constantly updated, and easy to use, citing a wealth of information and media articles.
It is not written by editors; anyone can edit articles, and its content relies on readers to create and verify it. However, the site has strict guidelines and systems to remove bad content. The transparency of content sources in Wikipedia is very high, with each article containing hyperlinks, including a discussion tab for comments and queries, an edit page tab, and a tab showing the page's edit history. Users can click on other linked websites through icons at the bottom of the page, making it very user-friendly and detailed.
In addition to Wikipedia, users can also search related sites such as Wiktionary and Thesaurus, the editable online manuals and textbooks of Wikibooks, the directory of plant and animal species in Wikispecies, the online source document site Wikisource, and user-created Wikinews.
