I’d like to gauge interest for a nice solarpunk wiki - an easily searchable repository of knowledge for everything solarpunk. While a lemmy instance is great to share articles, links, meet like-minded folk, give quick tech advice, there is a lot of useful slrpnk knowledge worth collecting in a more systematic manner. Are we enough active people here to get that started yet? It might be early at this point, as @poVoq@slrpnk.net mentioned in a comment elsewhere, but as a wiki fan I’ll put that out here. Or are there other wikis out there worth supporting instead?
I started a small link list for now: https://wiki.f-hub.org/books/slrpnknet/page/other-solarpunk-links
Please share links that would be interesting to add.
I’ll probably look into adding a dedicated wiki once I finished the server optimisation and the xmpp account link.
https://wiki.sunbeam.city/doku.php?id=start
Sunbeam city started on awhile back. I’ve not been in that community for a while though to say if they’ve been keeping up with it.
https://hacker.solar/ seems also interesting, but the server is very weak and not well maintained I think.
Looks very cool and with a good category setup. Going to have a closer look tomorrow, thanks for sharing!
Looks like a https://www.bookstackapp.com/ instance
What might be a good start is a link collection. As basicly a sticky post, with a bunch of intressting lemmy instances, blogs, websites, organizations and maybe even some cool wikis. Getting a good number of links with a sentence of description would be relativly easy and a good places for newcomers to find some general info.
I think this is a great idea. I nominate the HydroponicTrash substack: https://anarchosolarpunk.substack.com/archive
@orvorn @MrMakabar I won’t be participating on a site that promotes racism like substack does. I’m also not a huge fan of losing federation and joining an silo.
having run community wikis, unless there are 2-3 dedicated people willing to put active work on improving the content; I advise against creating another wiki, when other existing ones could be improved.
I hear you, that’s where I’m also happy if anyone knows of worthy alternatives to participate in.
is a good option and local mirrors are possible as well
