Line 1: :''[[Project:History]]'' The '''Electorama wiki''' (also known as "Electowiki" with an uppercase "E") is the predecessor website to [[~~Electowiki:About~~electowiki]] ("electowiki~~\|electowiki~~" with a lowercase "e", served by [[Miraheze]]). As"Electowiki" ~~with~~and "electowiki," share the ~~goal~~same ~~was~~goal: to describe a variety of different [[Voting system\|election methods]], and their effect on the quality and timbre of elections and democracy. Electowiki was started in 2005 by Dan Keshet and Rob Lanphier ([[User:~~RobLa\|~~RobLa]]) as a free-content, [[~~w:MediaWiki\|~~MediaWiki]]-based wiki dedicated to discussing election-methods related material. It is a spinoff of [~~https://electorama.com electorama~~[Electorama.com]], which was a [[Dreamhost]]-hosted website started in 2003 by ~~[[User:RobLa\|~~Lanphier]] as a complementary site to the [[election-methods mailing list]] (started in 1996, also by ~~[[User:RobLa\|~~Lanphier]]). InEver ~~the~~since ~~twelve~~2005, ~~years~~the ~~between~~Electorama ~~2006 and 2018,~~wiki ~~Electowiki~~has ~~was~~been hosted at wiki.electorama.com. In 2018, [[User:~~Psephomancy\|~~Psephomancy]] ported the wiki.electorama.com content over to [https://electowiki.miraheze.org electowiki.miraheze.org], hosted by [[m:Miraheze\|Miraheze]]. In response, Lanphier registered "electowiki.org", and began slowly redirecting traffic from wiki.electorama.com to electowiki.org. In December 2019, Lanphier finished the redirect project. The Electorama wiki is no longer available as wiki.electorama.com redirects to a default page. == Journal == Below is a reverse chronological set of site notices, which also serve as a slightly-more detailed history of this wiki. than the paragraphs above. === 2019-12-09 note from ~~[[User:~~RobLa~~\|RobLa]]~~=== :''posted by [[User:RobLa]]'' Last night, I set up redirects from almost all of the main namespace content on wiki.electorama.com to point here (e.g. [https://wiki.electorama.com/wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=0&hideredirects=1 almost all of the main namespace pages on wiki.electorama.com]). As of right now, the pages are explicitly listed, so new pages created on wiki.electorama.com won't automatically redirect, and the page histories for everything should be intact. === 2019-12-01 note from [[User:RobLa\|RobLa]]===
