The '''electowikiElectorama wiki''' is athe predecessor website whichto [[Electowiki:About electowiki|electowiki]]. As with electowiki, the goal was to describesdescribe a variety of different [[Voting system|election methods]], and their effect on the quality and timbre of elections and democracy. See [[electowiki:About]] to learn more general information about electowiki.

electowikiElectowiki 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.com], which was started in 2003 by [[User:RobLa|Lanphier]] as a complementary site to the [[election-methods mailing list]] (started in 1996 by [[User:RobLa|Lanphier]]).

In the twelve years between 2006 and 2018, Electowiki was 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 the site you see todayelectowiki.org.
