Sky-Map.org (or WikiSky.org) is a wiki and interactive sky map that covers over half a billion known celestial bodies. WikiSky is designed, in part, as a wiki. Users can edit information about different stars by writing articles, adding Internet links, uploading images, or creating a special interest group for a specific task.
The website, although still available for users to visit, has shown little activity since 2010. A significant amount of vandalism, in the form of adding unrecognized proper names to stars, exists and is still occurring as of now.
