I have been reading about this form of electronic democracy called wikidemocracy. The article on wikipedia talks about attempts to implement Wikidemocracy in 2011, but it doesn't mention any modern experiments. So I want to know, are there any major attempts by a local or nation government to implement/experiment with wikidemocracy that have been going on post-2019?

    Frankly it seems like a buzzword that either has little substance, or can mean pretty much anything... Sep 26, 2021 at 20:57

    What's the 30 word, no-buzzword, blurb on what wikidemocracy is supposed to achieve and how it is going to do that? Failing that, what is its 30 word, no-buzzword, definition? Sep 27, 2021 at 19:09

"wikidemocracy" seems to be a concept entirely derived from a single internet published polemic. No actual country, state, region or subdivision has actually created a publicly editable document that would actually be the law of the land.

If one had, we would probably have had "Law-y Mac-lawface" And Rick Astley as god-emperor.

The usual objections to direct democracy apply to the wikidemocracy, with the added caveat of "digital exclusion".
