💡 In simple words: WikiDeal helps people make fair deals. This page shows how to build a deal website for any market, like babysitting or pet sitting. It has nine parts: the contract, alerts, changes, laws, numbers, messages, quality rules, ready-to-use contracts, and guides.

🎯 In 20 seconds (scientific summary): This hypothesis proposes a modular architecture for decentralized market governance where contract ecosystems encompass nine interdependent sections beyond base documents. The emerging trend suggests movement toward transparent, legally-validated templates with community-driven quality standards, emerging as platforms increasingly delegate contract stewardship to user communities while maintaining lawyer review checkpoints and anonymized usage analytics for market optimization.

Market Portal Model

Purpose

Every WikiDeal market portal is intended to follow one shared structure, so that a user who has learned one market can find their way in any other. This page and its nine subpages form that structure, with neutral example content in each section. A new market (babysitting, small loans, pet sitting, housing, and so on) starts from this model: copy the nine sections, replace the neutral examples with market-specific content, keep the section names and their order.

The model starts from a simple idea: a contract is not a single document but a small ecosystem. Around the contract text live alerts, amendments, legal references, statistics, follow-up messages, quality criteria, packaged versions and tutorials. A portal that offers only the contract text leaves users alone at every difficult moment. A portal that offers all nine sections accompanies them from first contact to final signature and beyond.

The nine sections

# Section What it holds
1 Contract The base contract model: preamble clauses, substance clauses, annexes. Every clause carries an optional pedagogical commentary: why it makes sense, its advantages, risks and limits.
2 Alerts Short messages sent when a contract needs attention: deadlines, late payments, safety issues, pending signatures.
3 Amendments and addenda How a living contract changes: amendments modify existing clauses, addenda add new elements. Templates for both.
4 Legal references Applicable legal texts, quoted and linked, organized by country and language, with plain-language notes.
5 Statistics Anonymized usage statistics showing trends, ordered from the most important indicator to the least important.
6 Follow-up messages Message templates for before, during and after the contract: proposals, reminders, alternatives, renegotiation, closing.
7 Quality criteria Measurable standards the market community sets for itself: process, service, safety, satisfaction, dispute handling.
8 Contracts in action Packaged contracts for apps and platforms: fixed parameters plus predefined variables, intended to be validated by lawyers.
9 Tutorials User guides to carry a contract through to success: educational, funny, spectacular. Run by a tutorial sub-community that can organize its own open calls.

How to instantiate the model

  1. Choose a short, popular portal name (one or two everyday words) and a full descriptive name.
  2. Create Markets/en/Portal:<Name>/Main with the market's story: the real-life problem, who the parties are, what trust mechanisms apply.
  3. Create the nine subpages, following the naming pattern Markets/en/Portal:<Name>/<Section>:<Name>.
  4. Replace the neutral examples of each section with market-specific content. Keep every clause commentary honest: state risks and limits, not only advantages.
  5. Mark every draft as a draft. Contract clauses and packaged contracts are intended to be reviewed and validated by lawyers before any operational use.
  6. Mark every figure that is not measured as illustrative.

Editorial rules

  • Drafts stay drafts. Nothing on a portal is legal advice. Clauses, packages and legal notes are working material, intended to be validated by lawyers.
  • Say which data you mean. Variables typed into a contract (names, amounts, addresses) are private by default. Aggregated anonymized statistics and contract states (signed, completed, in dispute) are published by design.
  • Short beats filler. A clause with a three-line commentary that names a real risk is worth more than a page of generalities.
  • Both sides of every clause. Each pedagogical commentary answers four questions: why the clause makes sense, what it protects, what risks remain, where it stops helping.
