[[electowiki]] is a [[wiki]] which tries to make [[electoral systems]] more understandable for [[advocacy|advocates]] of electoral reform. It has existed since 2005, and still enjoys frequent updates. We aim to help new participants quickly get up to speed on the best systems and the conclusions of many long discussions.

== About electowiki ==
Ever since its foundation in 2005, the community of editors of this wiki have served two roles:
 
* Passionate advocates for [[electoral reform]]
* Believers in open and honest discussion about [[electoral system]]s
 
As a result, even though this website looks a lot like [[Wikipedia]], we don't pretend to have a dispassionate "neutral point of view" (or [[NPOV]]) that [[Wikipedia]] strives for. That said, you might find that the "electowiki point of view" (or [[EPOV]]) is very similar.
 
We encourage you to edit the site. Though it's possible to edit electowiki "anonymously", when you edit, your [[Wikipedia:IP address|IP address]] is revealed. Because of that, we recommend that you [[Help:Account|sign up for an account]], and help us edit '''electowiki'''!
 
electowiki has a long history, divided into two phases which you can read more about in these two pages:
 
* '''[[Project:About Electorama wiki]]''' - this page describes the first phase (from 2005 until 2018 or so)
* '''[[Project:About electowiki]]''' phase (2018-now) - this page describes the website you are on right now. Read this page to learn about the transition to the current phase of [[electowiki]] development
