Wikipedia:WikiTown/Freopedia

Freopedia is a WikiTown project in Fremantle, Western Australia.

Originally envisaged as a project to install QRpedia codes at various sites around Fremantle, Western Australia it was based on the original concept created for Monmouth in Wales.

It has since evolved into the WikiTown concept project.

It originally evolved as a wikipedia content expansion project and then developed into a collaboration between the Fremantle Society and Wikimedia Australia supported the City of Fremantle, State Records Office, and other organisations in Fremantle.

The appellation Freopedia reflects both the vernacular name for Fremantle and the tradition of appending '-pedia' to projects of this nature. This page is being set up as a focal point for the organisation of Freopedia; to register your interest, please add your name to the list of contributors below.
