The wiki fuses art, technology and education, to create a website about our planet and its future. We need plans that show how things work. We need plans to make things work better. We need planetary awareness. Climate, Ocean Currents, The Natural World, The Whole World, on down to the molecular and the fundamental principles on which things are built. Information is not enough. Emotion and understanding are needed too. On this site, good explanations take centre stage. It should be fun to be a learner here. It should be fun to share understanding. It should be satisfying to collaborate.
Individual voices, rather than just neutral encyclopedic content can sometimes be heard here. We offer vistas and technology, lenses and images for the future. We offer tools for understanding and creating a better future. Some of tools and content that we make here, we hope, will feed on into Wikipedia, helping Wikipedia have more planetary awareness too.
How it Works
- Everything here must be licensed on terms that are compatible with Wikipedia, so that content created here can be freely used on Wikipedia itself.
- Wikiworld makes extensive use of the Wikidiagrams mediwiki extension, to make data driven, interactive diagrams.
- Article-Rating is central here. Read about Good Article and Featured Article status to understand what we aim for.
