Vanna, give me an 'A'!

[wheel]

I'd like to register a 'pedia' type of domain. Like wikipedia (though not wiki, it will be a wiki in a niche).

But what vowel do I use before the pedia? a? i? o?

widgetopedia
widgetipedia
widgetopedia
?

Which one is the commonly accepted variation?

[rocknbil]

widgetopedia
...
widgetopedia

You're dead before you start, what you have there is duplicate content.

:-)

I would guess that the i, a, or o would really depend on the content of "widget."

fooapedia
blaopedia
wiiopedia

lol. I meant widgetapedia for the last one. Darnit Jim, I'm an engineer not a proofreader! :)

I'm leaning towards widgetopedia, from encyclOpedia, but was hoping there was a convention for this.

I agree with rocknbil, the best-sounding choice would depend on what the first word was.

No matter which one you decide to use, spend a few extra bucks to register the other versions and make sure you have control of them.

All I have to say is...

"How do you spell that?"

I'd expect there to be more than a handful if you take into consideration all the typos.

>>I'd expect there to be more than a handful

Not forgetting the non-voweled version 'widgetpedia'

I think 'encyclo' is a Greek root, as opposed to 'encycl'+'<random vowel>'.

Running a few words around my mouth, 'o' feels best for most words, although some single-syllable words feel better with an 'a'.

No convention I'm aware of.

wheelopedia sounds better for instance than the rest.

[wheel]

to compound things, the root word ends in 're'. Like say, dare. Dareopedia. Daropedia. Darapedia.

Geesh, I'm making things worse!

poopopedia

but that will cost you royalties.

I can put you in touch with my intellectually property attorney.

I'll settle cheap, maybe half a mil.
