The A.P.E.S. Wiki

The A.P.E.S. Wiki is a platform for site-level information on ape status and conservation. The wiki provides summarised and standardised information about ape population status, threats, and conservation and research activities in an accessible way. The information is compiled from scientific publications, reports, and experts with work experience at the sites.

The A.P.E.S. Wiki is a collaborative effort of the IUCN SSC Primate Specialist Group Section on Great Apes (SGA) and Section on Small Apes (SSA). We are currently expanding our efforts to include all 34 great ape and small ape taxa. Entries are categorised by region, country and site. Original ape survey data are curated by, and accessible from, the IUCN SSC A.P.E.S. Database.

How to contribute

The A.P.E.S. Wiki is open to everyone for contributions. You can contribute by editing information on existing wiki pages, or by creating a page for an ape site not yet included. A moderator currently manages the input of information. As we learn from experience, we aim to expand the content moderation by country or region. To edit or add a new ape site, please contact Isabel Ordaz-Nemeth, at inemeth[at]rewild.org.

Your input is extremely valuable for the growth and maintenance of the wiki. The wiki will enable information exchange among conservation practitioners, scientists, donors, and other stakeholders involved in ape conservation. It is also a great opportunity for many ape sites to increase their online presence and in the future become more visible to donors. We look forward to your contributions!

A Propos du A.P.E.S. Wiki

A.P.E.S.-Wiki est une plate-forme d’informations au niveau du site, sur la recherche sur les grands et petits singes et leur conservation. Vous trouverez ici des informations sur l'état des populations de grands et petits singes, les menaces auxquelles ils sont confrontés, les activités de conservation mises en œuvre et les recherches menées. Les informations sont compilées à partir de publications scientifiques, de rapports des organisations de conservation et à partir des opinions d'experts ayant une expérience de travail avérée sur les sites concernés.

La plateforme A.P.E.S.-Wiki est un effort de collaboration de la section des grands singes (SGA) du Groupe des Spécialistes sur les Primates de la Commission pour la Survie des Espèces (SSC) de l'UICN. A.P.E.S. Nous travaillons actuellement pour intégrer au A.P.E.S wiki, tous les sites connus où vivent des populations des 34 taxons de grands et petits singes. Les entrées sont classées par région, par pays et par site. Les données brutes sur les singes, collectées sur terrain, sont reçues de divers contributeurs, traitées et archivées dans la base de données sur les grands singes (IUCN SSC A.P.E.S. Database) où elles sont accessibles à toute personne intéressée, sur simple requête adressée au gestionnaire de la base de données.

Comment contribuer

A.P.E.S.-Wiki est ouvert à tous pour les contributions. Vous pouvez y contribuer en modifiant ou en complétant les informations sur les pages wiki existantes, ou en créant une nouvelle page pour un site, non encore inclus, qui abrite des singes. Un modérateur coordonne actuellement la saisie des informations sur APES-Wiki. Nous visons à étendre la modération des contenus, progressivement aux pays et aux régions, au fur et à mesure que nous avançons et gagnons en expérience.Pour modifier ou ajouter un nouveau site de singes, veuillez contacter Dr. Tene Sop à tenekwetche_sop[at]eva.mpg.de.

Votre contribution est extrêmement précieuse pour la croissance et la maintenance APES-Wiki. Cette plateforme permettra un échange d'informations entre les praticiens de la conservation, les scientifiques, les donateurs et bien d'autres parties prenantes impliquées dans la conservation des singes. C'est également une excellente occasion pour les conservationnistes et les chercheurs qui travaillent a des endroits peu connus, de donner une présence en ligne à leurs sites et leurs activités afin d’accroitre leur visibilité pour le public et surtout pour les donateurs. Nous attendons vos contributions avec impatience!
