At this stage, open participation takes place in the [[Markets/en/Portal:All Portals/Main|Markets]] space, where anyone can propose use cases, contract templates and complete structures. The rest of the platform (governance, policies, institutions, everything outside the Markets) can currently be edited only by people holding administration rights. If you would like to take part in that work, the first step proposed is to identify yourself and contact us at info@wikideal.net, so that these rights can be granted to you. This arrangement reflects the current stage of the project and is offered as a working basis, open to discussion.

💡 In simple words: Researchers study how people share and cooperate. They can join WikiDeal to test ideas and learn what works. This page explains how to take part.

🎯 In 20 seconds (expert summary): Entry page for researchers: the Living Labs through which WikiDeal is being developed (social economics, algorithmic fairness, decentralized governance, legal automation) and the current way to get involved. There is no selection filter: open participation currently takes place in the Markets space, while contributing to governance, policies and institutions goes through a simple contact step (info@wikideal.net) to request administration rights, granted case by case. Participation is open to grant holders, thesis students and independent volunteers alike.

Contribute as a Researcher

Help validate the cooperative model. WikiDeal is being developed through Living Labs in sociology, economics, and algorithmic fairness. Researchers are invited to analyze usage data, test governance models, and document systemic impacts.

Living Labs

  • Ecopol Living Lab (social economics)
  • Algorithm Fairness and Transparency Lab
  • Decentralized Governance Lab
  • Legal and Contracts Automation Lab
  • Or propose a new Living Lab

How to get involved

There is no filter and no selection process: you can start right away.

At this stage, open participation takes place in the Markets space, where anyone can propose use cases, contract templates and complete structures. The rest of the platform (governance, policies, institutions, everything outside the Markets) can currently be edited only by people holding administration rights. If you would like to take part in that work, the first step proposed is to identify yourself and contact us at info@wikideal.net, so that these rights can be granted by an administrator, after analysis and case by case (see the criteria envisaged). This arrangement reflects the current stage of the project and is offered as a working basis, open to discussion.

When you write to us, tell us your academic institution or organization, which Living Lab interests you, and describe your proposed research contribution. You can take part whether you hold an independent grant, are seeking a WikiDeal research grant, are working on a student thesis, or are contributing as an independent volunteer researcher.

For the broader picture, including the planned integration webinars, see Get started: how to contribute.
