Project:Electorama! (local link: Electowiki:Electorama!) is a project led by Rob Lanphier. It was started in 2003 when Rob first registered electorama.com. He created "Electorama.com" as a shared blog in the style of Slashdot, Kuro5hin or Daily Kos, and intended as discussion site to complement the election-methods mailing list (started in 1996, also by RobLa). But then the Electorama wiki really started to take off, and for a while, "Electorama" and "Electowiki" vaguely synonymous (since "Electowiki" was located at "wiki.electorama.com"). That changed in 2018 when "electowiki" was moved to the Miraheze infrastructure, and electowiki.org was registered.
