With the help of our comrade Syntrofos, we have opened a Greek language ProleWiki! Of course, since we have just opened it, you shouldn’t expect to find much, except an article on Marxism-Leninism at the moment. Irrespective of that, having an open Greek wiki will allow people speaking that language to contribute with the wiki independent of the English language instance.

Our editors have done an excellent job in ProleWiki, but it’s a job that is never really finished. There will always be something to add, a fact, a specific knowledge, and it’s wonderful that we are opening up to further languages so more people from more places can know about our project and contribute to them.

All glory to the comrades at ProleWiki! Thank you comrade Syntrofos for your work!

    BTW some things you can do if you join ProleWiki (skills or will to learn, as well as your time, permitting):

    • Work on the technical PHP/JS/CSS side
    • Patrol edits to make sure they have references and/or comply with our principles
    • Add works to the library (I also want to move the texts we already have away from marxists.org)
    • Work on social media (tweeting, making videos collaboratively, etc)
    • Work on our other language instances
    • There is a possibility to open new language instances but it’s very involved and based on trust, a starting point is translating English articles.
    • Analyze reader data, run surveys and feedback, etc. to learn how people read ProleWiki and how we can improve their experience.
    • Anywhere you have skills, we can and will use them

    The account request process is a bit involved but after that it’s smooth sailing.
