Wikipedia:Parodies/Wickerpedia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wickerpedia is a parody of the Wikipedia online encyclopedia. As the pun in its name suggests, Wickerpedia claims to be a reference work that focuses its articles on wicker materials, and describes itself as the "hard woven plant fiber encyclopedia". Wickerpedia emulates Wikipedia's look and feel for comic effect. It also parodies Wikipedia Sister Projects, such as Wickerquote, Wickerbooks, Wickerspecies and so on.
The website does not run with MediaWiki software, and is not a true wiki. The only article on this "wikiproject" is "wicker", which is available only in English and is not editable (though the site's front page states that the site has 601,000+ articles). The only pages on the whole site are the index, the main page, the wicker page, the disclaimer page and the about page. Most of the site's "links" are simply coloured text. The "Random Page" link goes straight to the "wicker" article. When something other than "wicker" is typed in the search bar, the site reads:
Sorry, there were no exact matches for "[what you typed]". Did you mean "wicker"?
