I would like there to be a purely fictional Wikipedia, Fikipedia. It would be a collaborative attempt to create an entirely fictional universe. You would have fictional science, history, art, politics, languages, music, you name it, fictional references that all had there own fikipedia page. It would be so cool

@RobertoArchimboldi Microscope works this way, and is a lot of fun to write! https://pdfcoffee.com/microscope-rpg-resumo-2-pdf-free.html

A long time ago I did another one with friends that could only be played on a wiki host, in which you all write entries for a letter of the alphabet each day, and you have to cite previous and future articles as you go, but it wasn't as flexible or coherent as Microscope.

@RobertoArchimboldi This website offers a fun space for playing Microscope and sets up the wiki in a really neat and well-organized way: https://utgars-chronicles.app/

@carrideen thank you so much. I was hoping that someone would pop up to tell me that it already exists

@robhughes @RobertoArchimboldi Lexicon is the other one I was thinking of! It's not as elegant as Microscope, but very fun too. https://web.archive.org/web/20080617213627/http://www.20by20room.com/2003/11/lexicon_an_rpg.html
