There was considerable resistance on the part of Nupedia's editors and reviewers to the idea of associating Nupedia with a Web site in the wiki format, so the new project was given the name "Wikipedia" and launched on its own domain, wikipedia.com, on January 15 (now called "[[ويکيپېډيا:Wikipedia Day|Wikipedia Day]]" by some users). The [[Bandwidth (computing)|bandwidth]] and [[server (computing)|server]] (in San Diego) were donated by Wales. Other current and past [[Bomis]] employees who have worked on the project include [[Tim Shell]], one of the cofounders of Bomis and its current CEO, and programmer Jason Richey. The domain was eventually changed to the present wikipedia.org when the not-for-profit [[Wikimedia Foundation]] was launched as its new parent organization, prompting the use of a ".org" domain to denote its non-commercial nature. In March 2007, the word ''wiki'' became a newly recognized English word.<ref>[http://www.oed.com/help/updates/Prakrit-prim.html "Quarterly update to OED online: New edition: Prakrit to prim"], ''Oxford English Dictionary'', March 15, 2007</ref>
