<strong>About this wiki</strong>
==About this wiki==
 
This wiki exists as a collaborative notepad to collect and organise content and resources relating to the Collapsible project, harvested by members of the Mastodon instance at [https://collapsible.systems Collapsible.Systems]. The end goal is to create a 'real' wiki, with useful articles and conforming to a common editorial style, a 'collapsipedia'. For this a domain has already been registered. The wiki will be built primarily as an online archive, but with offline networking applications in mind, able to be served wirelessly (WLAN/LoRa/mobile data) and over Ethernet from small low powered computers.
 
This work will be done in English, translated into other languages where translators are available.
 
Enthusiastic editors should feel free to fleshing out articles and/or writing up detailed notes as they wish, but please create special pages for those under the relevant category. For the time being however the priority is to gather all the external resources we can into one place (this wiki), using our Mastodon community as a knowledge harvester.
 
== The Collapsible Project ==
 
 
 
Collapsible is intended for those interested in sharing strategies, skills, disciplines, technologies, ideas, designs, systems and critical thought that contribute to the thriving of the many in a time of great upheaval, an era of collapses (plural). It is not a submission to 'The Collapse' and nor does it seek to romanticise an end times. Within this frame individual-centered survivalist and prepper cultures are not welcome, while we identify that both have much that may be of direct use to communities facing tough times.
 
In contributing to this wiki you:
 
   
* identify that we face not some future Collapse, but are already in the midst of multiple converging collapses.
*    recognise that the climate and extinction crises are due to the stresses our growth-addicted civilisation has placed on the Planet, and with that comes consequences for all alive.
*    understand and accept that climate change and mass extinction can not be undone, that we are already locked in for decades of consequences regardless of any mitigating steps made today.
*    believe that openly talking about the challenges we face is not 'dark', nor pessimistic, but essential to surviving them.
*    understand that environmental defense and biome conservation are crucial to our continued survival.
*    recognise that true resilience means togetherness, and that strong communities are built atop a commitment to inclusivity.
*    honestly think tardigrades are amazing, not only because they are collapsible.
