As revolutionaries, we don’t have the right to say we are tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We know that when the people understand, they cannot help but follow us.

Recently, the r/TheDeprogram subreddit was threatened with banning by Reddit admins. I got the go-ahead to mirror the subreddit wiki on lemmygrad in case. I have made a few formatting changes to better suit Markdown formatting and corrected a few typos. Full credit goes to the original authors of the wiki.

Your help and past efforts are extremely appreciated and helpful right now, thank you!

In the following days I will make sure to add and link everything you've backed up in a way that makes it easy to find

Are you adding them to Prolewiki? If you want, I can send you the raw markdown files. I have them stored on a personal archive

If not, I guess I'll try applying to be a Prolewiki editor again. I just don't like the entire backup wiki being my posts because no one else can add to them.

Thank you for the offer of the raw markdown files. Good question! I checked the page of the Deprogram podcast on Prolewiki and I saw that now users can make smaller edits without being an editor. However I'm unsure if it's the same for larger edits 🤔

Maybe we can ask @CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml or check with the editors over at c/Prolewiki for their opinions on how to proceed

I've been thinking about this for the past couple days, it would be possible to create a Portal on prolewiki to host the deprogram wiki but imo it would only thin out the information. E.g. instead of having one yeonmi park page there would suddenly be two containing different information, and it wouldn't be clear to the readers that there are two, and what makes them different and which one they should read.

Instead I think what makes the most sense is to consolidate main wiki pages and incorporate the content from the deprogram wiki - I love the style and some of the info we don't have yet. You can make any sort of edit on "main" pages (pages not preceded by a namespace) but it's easier for us to approve them if they're smaller. Since a while back you can also create new pages, we stealthily added that.

To get started we have guidelines: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/ProleWiki:Editorial_guidelines

And a user guide to use the editor: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/ProleWiki:User_guide

MediaWiki uses its own code markup so markdown won't work but it may be possible to copy the markdown output (that is the text that's already formatted, not the markdown code) and paste in the visual editor. AI can also change the markup easily.

If I remember correctly you can make small edits without an account, but making new pages requires an account.

Thank you comrade

[-] Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 3 days ago

Comrade, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[-] Comprehensive49@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Updated mirror with new articles on the subreddit wiki.

[-] Comprehensive49@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Updated with changes and new articles on Cuba and Che Guevara.

[-] layla@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Thanks for porting this over!

[-] Comprehensive49@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

No problem. Will Lemmygrad get its own wiki feature eventually, or should I post these on Prolewiki and link from there instead?

[-] layla@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 years ago

No, Lemmy doesn't seem like it's getting its own wiki system. Prolewiki+link sounds best.
