THPedia:About THPedia
The primary purpose of THPedia is to spread accurate, accessible, non-sensationalistic information about transhumanism among the general public. THPedia is also an opportunity for transhumanist enthusiasts to work together, thereby strengthening the transhumanist community. THPedia welcomes constructive contributions from everyone interested in the future of humanity.
What's it all about?
THPedia aims to follow the principles of Wikipedia. At the same time, the THPedia editorial team seek to demonstrate greater awareness and appreciation of transhumanism and radical futurism. This will be reflected by the inclusion in THPedia of material which might not pass the Wikipedia tests for notability, as currently applied by Wikipedia editors. The guiding principles of THPedia are described in more detail in the THPedia Principles.
Contributors policy
THPedia is an open project, meaning that anyone may contribute either under their own name and public identity, or pseudo-anonymously via a preferred username.
The project focuses on techno-optimistic and realistic futuristic thought and trend analysis, rather than taking a popularist position that dystopian scenarios are inevitable and unavoidable.
Original research is welcomed at THPedia, however such contributions are expected to draw heavily upon reliable resources and other internal THPedia references.
Users who hold a specialist interest or expertise are invited to write about this on their user page or article page to better contextualise their contributions.
Etiquette
As with Wikipedia, discussions should to be focused around the content of a contribution rather than the user who made it. However in the event that an individual is sufficiently disruptive to the THPedia project or wider community they may no longer be allowed to contribute.
