This approach suggests emerging trends in decentralized platform governance that challenge traditional marketplace ownership structures.}}

	~~# A "contract builder" which allows you to use one of the contract templates on our wiki, customize it with your own information, and export the result.~~
	# A "contract uploader" which allows you to contribute contracts that you have used in the past, so that the WikiDeal community can use them as inspiration to build new contract models or improve existing ones.
