Welcome to Donkipedia
Donkipedia is a Guernsey Society initiative is to collect and share knowledge about Guernsey's People, Places & Heritage. Guernsey is the second largest of the Channel Islands.
This is a wiki. This means that there is some useful content here, but it is work in progress, it is not yet complete. It also means that anyone can contribute to it.
If you want to browse around, we hope that you find it interesting and useful.
If you would like to contribute, please see the Community Portal for details of how to get started.
It uses the same underlying technology as Wikipedia, which means that anyone can contribute. It is not, however, an attempt to duplicate Wikipedia - but to contain a lot of useful more detailed information for people interested in the island, which would not necessarily be relevant to Wikipedia.
