WikiWiki for Participatory Democracy

  • Artigo

Now this is inclusive politics.  IMO, WikiWiki is the most democratic social computing medium.

The Green Party of Canada goes a step beyond political blogs: They let their members work on their policies for the upcoming elections using a Wiki platform.
[via Jens Ohlig via BoingBoing]

Kudos to the Greenies. Your Wiki is outstanding.  Features that merit emulation include but are certainly not limited to:

  • Rank-a-Plank (user ratings of platform planks)
  • Lock Glyphs
    If a registered user has locked a page, a lock glyph appears to the right of the TopicTitle.
  • The “Living Platform“ Concept
    “Parallel to the public website which displays our current platform is our Living Platform where you can jump in , suggest new ideas, edit or add to the existing planks. The Planks are here .“

For WikiWiki Junkies, this is a tiki wiki implementation.
