== Wikimedia Nomenclature — WikiDeal Adaptations == | |||
'''Purpose of this page:''' WikiDeal draws explicit inspiration from the Wikimedia Foundation's principles, governance model, and open-knowledge philosophy. This page maps 12 Wikimedia principles (WM-01 to WM-12) to their WikiDeal adaptations. "." WM-01 | |||
Wikimedia References | |||
WikiDeal is built on the conviction that the principles that made Wikipedia the world's most trusted encyclopedia can be applied to the economy — creating fair, transparent, community-governed marketplaces for everyday services. Below are 12 foundational principles borrowed and adapted from the Wikimedia universe. | |||
=== WM-01 — Free Knowledge → Fair Deals for Everyone === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Knowledge should be free and accessible to all. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' Fair deals should be accessible to all — not just those with legal resources, social capital, or access to professionals. WikiDeal's libre licensed contracts democratize access to quality agreements. ''"."'' | |||
Applied in: All marketplace modules, open contract templates, transparent pricing. | |||
=== WM-02 — Open Collaboration → Community-Built Marketplace === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Anyone can contribute; contributions are reviewed by the community. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' Any individual can become a service provider, contract contributor, or [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:User Groups|User Group]] member. Contracts are reviewed by peer communities, legal volunteers, and researchers before adoption. | |||
Applied in: Community roles (Developer, Researcher, Lawyer), User Group creation, open contract review process. | |||
=== WM-03 — Community Governance → User Group Democracy === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Governance is distributed — no single entity controls Wikipedia. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal governance is distributed across User Groups, each with elected officers, transparent mandates, and community accountability. No single organization controls the platform. | |||
Applied in: User Group structure, elected delegates, operational bureaus, regional coordination. | |||
=== WM-04 — Neutral Point of View → Balanced Contracts === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Present all significant viewpoints fairly, without bias. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal contracts are drafted from a neutral, balanced position — protecting both the service provider and the client equally. No contract defaults to favor one party. | |||
Applied in: Bidirectional evaluation system, base contracts, dispute resolution protocols. | |||
=== WM-05 — Commons Anti-Monopoly → Winner Takes All → Shared Bonding Curve === | |||
Wikimedia principle: The commons (shared knowledge) resists monopolization — what benefits one benefits all. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' The bonding curve mechanism prevents monopolization of Rewards. As more members join, the curve benefits early funders more — but ''everyone earns''. This is the anti-"Winner Takes All" mechanism: no single actor can capture the full reward pool. | |||
The bonding curve is designed so that community growth benefits the collective — Gift flow to all User Group members, not just top performers. | |||
Applied in: Rewards, [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Miles-Credits|Miles Credits]] (P1), [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Cash-Rewards|Cash Rewards]] (no guarantee*) (P2), [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Funding Stabilizer|Boost mechanism]]. | |||
=== WM-06 — Incentive Alignment → Boost Mechanism === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Incentives should align contributor behavior with the common good. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' The Boost mechanism dynamically adjusts the Personal/Gift split based on supply/demand. This ensures that harder tasks (low attraction events, difficult periods) are compensated more individually, while popular tasks generate more community benefit. | |||
'''Priority target: social s and volunteers''' — the multiplier effect ensures these groups receive proportionally higher rewards for the same effort. | |||
Applied in: Street Fundraising Boost, all marketplace modules with variable demand. | |||
=== WM-07 — Verifiability → Contract Auditability === | |||
Wikimedia principle: All claims must be verifiable; sources must be cited. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' All contract clauses must be traceable to legal sources, community decisions, or auditable processes. Every contract carries a version history. Revenue distributions are publicly auditable. | |||
Applied in: Contract audit clauses, version control, User Group transparency reports. | |||
=== WM-08 — No Original Research → Evidence-Based Contracts === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Wikipedia does not publish original research — it synthesizes existing knowledge. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal contracts are based on existing legal frameworks, labour law, cooperative models, and tested contract types. New contract elements require community review before adoption. | |||
Applied in: Contract approval process, legal review by volunteer lawyers, reference to APTES, Coop statutes, Swiss/EU law. | |||
=== WM-09 — Free Licensing → AGPL v3 / GNU/Linux === | |||
Wikimedia principle: All Wikipedia content is freely licensed (CC BY-SA). | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal's entire codebase is published under '''AGPL v3''' (GNU Affero General Public License). Running on GNU/Linux, the platform cannot be made proprietary. Any derivative must also be libre licensed. | |||
Applied in: GitHub/Codeberg repositories, platform code, contract templates (CC BY-SA). | |||
=== WM-10 — Decentralization → Distributed User Groups === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Wikipedia is edited by thousands of independent contributors worldwide. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal operates through geographically distributed User Groups, each independently governed but connected through the common platform and protocol. No central hub controls local operations. | |||
Applied in: User Group creation, regional autonomy, bidirectional evaluation, data portability. | |||
=== WM-11 — Participatory Learning → Horizontal Training === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Knowledge grows through peer contribution, not top-down instruction. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' Training is participatory and peer-to-peer. Seniors coach juniors. Regional meals are learning spaces. Committees are thematic, not hierarchical. Credits are earned for teaching. | |||
Applied in: Street Fundraising training model, onboarding modules, mentor rewards. | |||
=== WM-12 — Technology as Enabler → AI as Tool, Not Authority === | |||
Wikimedia principle: Technology serves the mission, not the other way around. | |||
'''WikiDeal adaptation:''' WikiDeal's AI provides real-time suggestions, alerts, and analytics — but all decisions remain human. AI cannot modify contracts, override community governance, or take autonomous actions. | |||
Applied in: Internal AI push messages, session monitoring, fraud detection — all advisory only. | |||
