Sky-Map.org (or WikiSky.org) is a wiki and interactive sky map that covers over half a billion known celestial bodies.[1] WikiSky is designed, in part, as a wiki. As such 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.[2][3]
The website, although still available for users to visit, has shown little activity since 2010. Significant amounts of vandalism by adding unrecognized proper names to stars exist and are still occurring as of now.
