Wiki and discussion sites
[edit]Wikis related to appropriate technology:
Note that these three wikis are all in early stages with few articles. Appropedia and the Village Earth project appear, in part, to attempt to duplicate Wikipedia's approach. The Development and Sustainability Wikia, however, aims to be a complement to Wikipedia. All three wikis allow material which would not be suitable for Wikipedia, such as information on original research, projects detailed how-tos, collaborations, and event notices.
- Appropedia, a wiki aiming to be "a living library of appropriate technology."
- Development and Sustainability Wikia a wiki for material not suitable for Wikipedia, such as original research, personal experience, and ideas.
- wiki.villageearth.org Village Earth's Appropriate Technology Wiki Project
Discussion sites - non-wiki:
- Worldchanging (choose a category and click "Go." Some interesting appropriate technology articles.)
- CREST has discussion pages - see also the links on left side of this page.
