Since | Since 2016 Shaunak Chakraborty is watching the [[Indian]] people who are struggling to create a page in [[Wikipedia]], but we all knew it very well that how much difficult it is. He develop sympathy for those people of his nation and want to do something for them. On 1 April 2018 he invited his school juniors Anandita Bist, Sai Gaurav, Daksh, Akansha Kumari and Tejas for a group discussion on this topic, they suggested to create a site like [[Wikipedia]]. It was too difficult to create a same site. On 25 July 2018 Shaunak Chakraborty visited to a website makers for some suggestions, he told him the entire process that how he can create a site like [[Wikipedia]]. On 16 August 2018 '''Gyaanipedia Foundation''' was formed by ''Shaunak Chakraborty''. Under this foundation finally the website [[Gyaanipedia]] was formed on 30 August 2018 which was an online historical day for those struggling people of India. This site was formed under [[Fandom|Wikia]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://gyaanipedia.wikia.com|title=Gyaanipedia Wiki|website=gyaanipedia.wikia.com|language=en|access-date=2018-11-26}}</ref> which was powered by [[Wikia|Fandom]], then the MediaWiki site was finally launched on 31 October 2018. The first [[Indian]] online [[encyclopedia]] with no restrictions and also it is the first wiki website which have [[Indian Standard Time|IST]] (Indian Standard Time) time zone. It works under the same [[MediaWiki|Mediawiki]] open source software which [[Wikipedia]] is using. On 09 November 2018 the Hindi<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://hi.gyaanipedia.co.in|title=ज्ञानीपीडिया|website=hi.gyaanipedia.co.in|language=hi|access-date=2018-11-26}}</ref> and Bangla<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://bn.gyaanipedia.co.in|title=জ্ঞানীপিডিয়া|website=bn.gyaanipedia.co.in|language=bn|access-date=2018-11-26}}</ref> version was launched, on 12 November 2018 Telugu<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://te.gyaanipedia.co.in Telugu] |title=గ్యానిపెడియా|website=te.gyaanipedia.co.in|language=te|access-date=2018-11-26}}</ref> version was launched. | ||
==Wikia== | |||
Initially some of the Gyaanipedia versions are hosted on Wikia therefore many domains are ending with Wikia.com, the first wiki has the domain https://gyaanipedia.wikia.com but in late 2019 it was changed to fandom.com as it was the decision of the company. Due to this change many wikis with less articles has been deleted from Fandom. | |||

==Imitation & Vandalism== | |||
In August 2020 after an user become administrator of Gyaanipedia due to his efforts and contributions, he started to copy exactly the same content from [[Wikipedia]] and other sites, which is known as vandalism. Due to this sudden change in his attitude, the team Gyaanipedia becomes anxious and confused. The owner [[Shaunak Chakraborty]] was totally confused why he was doing this. This vandalising activities reached to such peak that [[Miraheze]] has globally blocked him. | |||
=== Follow-up events === | |||
After getting blocked he made a duplicate site of Gyaanipedia with same pronounciation at [[Wikia]] but with a slightly different name ''Ganipediya''. All the layout of that site was exactly the same. Later he found to be an administrator and Bureaucrat of the site [[Uncyclopedia]].<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20201108134238/https://www.facebook.com/Skhsourav2</ref> | |||
