💡 In simple words: WikiDeal has lots of clever, fair ideas built into it — about money, trust, sharing, and solving arguments. This page is the big list where you can find every one of them and read what each does.

⚠️ Not yet approved. This page describes a proposal that is still under community review. It is documented here so it can be discussed, improved and endorsed.

WikiDeal Socio-Economic Innovations

Innovations index — WikiDeal R&D

This page is the comparative hub for the socio-economic innovations embedded in the WikiDeal model. Each innovation has a named origin — a foundation, movement, or individual thinker — and combines existing traditions (Wikimedia governance, the cooperative movement, token economics, free software, the Semantic Web) in ways specific to WikiDeal. The list is open and unlimited: the count does not matter, only the innovations do.

Boost (Funding Stabilizer)	Auto-regulation adjusting maximum Cash Rewards based on funding vs. incompressible costs.
Collaborative Contract Editing	Contracts are wiki-edited, versioned, and community-validated like Wikipedia articles.
Co-opetition	User Groups compete and cooperate at once — quality without destructive rivalry.

Peer Endorsement	Volunteer lawyers endorse contracts and take named, accountable responsibility.
Revenue Spreading	Dialoguers choose 100% payout in year 1 or 20% spread over ten years.
