Wikipedia

Wikipedia was an ancient organization of civilian archivists that existed from 20,000 BBY and continued on into the Imperial era. It was considered to be the most accurate and abundant source of historical information in the galaxy.

History
Wikipedia was formed circa 20,000 BBY and was initially comprised of Coruscanti scribes that traveled across the Galactic Republic and provided education and news to locals as a department of the Republican government. Over the millennia, Wikipedia gained autonomy as an independent organization and relocated its headquarters, the Templum Wikipedia, to Alsakan, where they kept their archives and raised new members for thousands of years. During the New Sith Wars (2000-1000 BBY), members of Wikipedia worked with the Jedi Order as intelligence agents. Following the rise of the Internet, Wikipedia reformed itself into a corporation that continued providing information through Internet networks. While it remained an independent corporation, it was funded by the Senate.

During the Clone Wars, Separatist agents made an attempt to disrupt Wikipedia's networks by destroying connection nodes across the galaxy, though this attempt was thwarted by Republic special forces. As the Galactic Empire rose to replace the Republic, many of Wikipedia's archives were seized and classified by Imperial officials in their attempt to "modify" the public's perception of galactic history. Some Wikipedia members aligned themselves with resistance groups throughout the galactic community and continued the development and maintenance of various archives. The Imperials dedicated many of their assets to hunting down and capturing these rogue archivists, though they managed to thrive long enough to be reformed as part of the New Republic in 4 ABY.
