Wikipedia's Sisters

Wikisource is an online library of free content publications, collected and maintained by our community. We now have 273,676 texts in the English language library.

Wikiquote is a free online compendium of sourced quotations from notable people and creative works in every language, translations of non-English quotes, and links to Wikipedia for further information.

Wikispecies is a free species directory that anyone can edit.

Wiki Commons is a database of over 12 million freely usable media files including images, audio, and video.

Wikibooks is a collection of open-content textbooks.

Wiktionary has grown beyond a standard dictionary and now includes a thesaurus, a rhyme guide, phrase books, language statistics and extensive appendices. Thus etymologies, pronunciations, sample quotations, synonyms, antonyms and translations are included.
