ProleWiki:Governance

This page is for listing our comrades who are currently managing our wiki development, as well as those who have skills who can be useful for future site administration. If you'd like to contribute to development, you can add yourself as a candidate in the discussion page.

Administration

Administrators are tasked with political and technical work. Political work include reaching other organizations and representing ProleWiki, as well as building consensus and handling internal contradictions among our editors. Technical work is related to managing the MediaWiki software.

If you have shown an effort in the developing the project selflessly and you're usually active and respectful with others, you'll be eventually able to contribute with administrative work once needed, either through election by active editors or appointment by current admins.

Currently, we have four administrators:

• Forte - technical maintainer (front and back end), maintains Portuguese instance, project founder
• CriticalResist - technical maintainer (front-end), maintains French instance, veteran
• 420dengist - Discord moderator, maintains Library and Essays, elected by editorship
• General-KJ - Discord moderator, English wiki patroller, elected by editorship

Language maintainers

Since late 2023, the administration has brought forward candidates for election by the Stewardship to fulfill certain maintenance roles in stead of the administrators. These are:

• Jaiden - maintains German instance
• CriticalResist - maintains French instance (looking for new maintainer to offload work)
• ComradeSyntrofos - maintains Greek instance
• Sudo halt - maintains Persian instance

Agitprop Secretariat

The agitprop work involves creating content to be pushed in our social media accounts, mostly Twitter, but also TikTok, Youtube, or even Instagram. This work can be done by any editor through our Discord channels.

Secretaries of agitprop coordinate efforts to create content directed towards bourgeois social media to spread propaganda about our project. They discuss and propose directions towards improving this work.

Current comrades on this task are:

• CriticalResist
• MG

If you are interested in participating on social media, contact CriticalResist!

Tech stack

• Software: MediaWiki

Right now, site uptime relies on the skills of our technical contributors. In the future, we'd like to explore tech stacks which can improve our resilience if any of our technical contributors were unable to fulfill their roles for whatever reason. Suggestions about how to achieve this are welcomed in the discussion page as well.
