=== Stable versions ===
The Wikimedia Foundation has developed a process to create "stable versions" of articles in its projects. Wikipedia will be initially testing this process in the German Wikipedia encyclopedia, a trial that will be evaluated, and potentially implemented on all languages, in all Wikimedia projects.
