I am not aware of any good solar punk wiki projects. There are however several other great wiki projects online that we can link and and contribute to. Here are a few wiki projects related to the environment, sustainability, and various diy technologies
Hacker | Solar - A knowledge repository on all subjects related to the practical application and praxis within the Solarpunk movement
Appropedia.org - The sustainability wiki
Energypedia.info - A wiki for renewable energy, energy access, and energy efficiency topics in developing countries
Open Source Ecology.org - A wiki for the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) – a set of the 50 most important machines that it takes for modern life to exist – everything from a tractor, to an oven, to a circuit maker
Localwiki.org - A wiki for anyone, anywhere to be able to learn about where they live — their local government, the history of their neighborhoods, streets, social movements, noteworthy local figures, social services, schools — every facet of life in their community.
On the topic of high quality information of the commons, I think what we really need is a decentralized federated wiki technology, like lemmy but for wikis. One that uses some combination of consensus based peer review, version control, and author accreditation. As far as I know, nothing like this even remotely exists - yet.
Edit 01 - Added Hacker | Solar! There are some good articles, not alot of activity in the past year
Edit 02 - I just saw the post talking about the official slrpnk.net wiki! Great work folks!
I am currently stuck on the account integration for the official SLRPNK wiki though and probably will not have time to revisit this before early next year. I documented the necessary SQL queries here, which seem to return the correct answers, but I can't get Dokuwiki's built in AuthPDO plugin to work with them. My suspicion is that there is something non-standard in how this Dokuwiki plugin handles bcrypt password hashing. Help appreciated.
This is pure gold! Thank you
Thanks for all the links, they are close to what I imagine. I need to check them out in detail.
Yeah this would be pretty cool, similar as something like forgefed, There are so many wikis floating around, not being seen by potentially interested people, having something like that could enable easily linking between wikis and their different philosophies, or enable a federalized search for all kinds of topics. Hmm maybe I'll look into that...
