beskrivelse:

Wikipe-tan, a moe anthropomorphization of Wikipedia, similar in theme to an OS-tan. In Japanese animation, "moe" characters are those designed to elicit a protective or loving response from the audience. Moe anthropomorphism is a form of anthropomorphism where moé qualities are given to non-human beings, objects, concepts, or phenomena. Like many moe characters, Wikipe-tan is designed to be a cute young girl.

Wikipe-tan first appeared in the Futaba Channel on an unspecified date, drawn by Japanese Wikipedia user Kasuga~jawiki. She is drawn in the "anime style" seen in many animations in Japan. Wikipe-tan is shown here in a kind of cosplay of a maid. She is seen with two of the Wikipedia logo puzzle pieces as hair ties, with a third piece decorating the front of her maid outfit.

In June 2006, this particular image surfaced as a mascot sample for the English Wikipedia's Wikiproject Anime and Manga, after the previous mascot (a fan-art image of the title character from Midori Days) was removed from the commons due to copyright problems.
