Equestripedia is a database focused on all aspects of the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchise, its spin-offs, merchandise, and so on. What distinguishes this wiki from the FANDOM ''My Little Pony'' wiki and ''My Little Wiki'' is that we're a wiki dedicated to the '''entire''' ''My Little Pony'' franchise, with a focus on the media and as some have described, 'lore' of the franchise, whereas the former tend to be based exclusively on the 4th-5th generations and toyline respectively.

==What we cover==
===''My Little Pony'' franchise===
The ''My Little Pony'' franchise is a very vast series with numerous television programs, films, specials, comics, and more. Each entry of the ''MLP'' brand is covered on this equal as (in theory) much as anything else. As such, every subject from every official ''My Little Pony'' episode, book, game, comic, etc, no matter how obscure it may be to the greater franchise, is allowed on the wiki.

===Spinoffs===
In the 80s and 90s, Hasbro produced a number of toylines and even some media franchises that used the ''My Little Pony'' label. These include ''[[My Little Kitty]]'', ''[[My Little Puppy]]'', ''[[My Little Mermaid]]'', ''[[My Little Bunny]]'', and the daringly titled, ''[[Fairy Tails]]''. These series are given equal coverage as they are apart of the greater ''[[My Little Pony]]'' brand.

''Equestria Girls'' is given equal coverage.

===Crossovers===
Crossovers are covered as extensively as any other media. Characters, places, objects, concepts, etc, from crossovers are covered on the wiki (see: [[Megatron]], [[Dan Mandel]], [[Cobra Commander]]), however, they are only covered as far as they're relevant in crossover media. As such, their images, history, personality sections, ect, should only reflect how they're presented in the crossover. You can write about their history and characterization in the original properties in the "Behind the scenes" section, but it has to be kept brief.

===Anthologies===
Different from crossovers are anthology releases, such as ''[[Synergy: A Hasbro Creators Showcase]]'', an anthology comic tat featured stories from various [[Hasbro]] media, including ''My Little Pony''. The comic itself and all staff members are allowed pages, but stories not featuring MLP characters are not.

===Segmented media===
The original airing of ''[[My Little Pony (TV series)|My Little Pony]]'' included unrelated shows, ''[[The Glo Friends]]'', ''[[MoonDreamers]]'' and the ''[[Potato Head Kids]]''. We currently have no hard standards for these. They are ''technically'' media under the MLP branding, as opposed to the aforementioned anthologies which were media that ''used'' the MLP brand, and thus for now at least, they may be covered.

There are numerous home media releases that feature episodes of MLP and other Hasbro cartoons; these are not covered.
