WikiSpooks is an open licensed, open source encyclopedia of deep politics.
We currently have 31340 user-generated pages (13694 people, 4967 groups, 1394 events... ) supplemented by a further 2322 third party documents.
WikiSpooks was set up in 2010 to establish a collaborative space for the joint re-examination of recent history, focusing particularly on the last 60 years or so.[1] We are free to research people, events, groups and concepts not subject to much scrutiny by corporate media and as such, not tolerated in Wikipedia. Since official narratives do sometimes change, it follows that they are not always correct, and WikiSpooks provides assistance for those researching such possibilities.

Editorial Policy

The fundamental premise of WikiSpooks' editorial policy is that authority opposes anything which it perceives as a threat, and can bring greater resources to bear than are available to individuals or small groups. This power imbalance becomes especially acute where matters of deep politics are involved. For more on this, see Media Lens, a media-monitoring website.[2] Wikispooks therefore does not aim for a (status-quo friendly) Neutral Point of View[3] and noting that newspapers and broadcasters (like governments) can and do lie with impunity, it does not assume the commercially-controlled media's publication of evidence to be a reliable indication of its veracity.
What Is Wrong With Wikipedia?

Wikipedia/Problems
- Full article:
Wikipedia's editorial policies guarantee a blind spot around matters of deep politics, so information on such topics is superficial and fragmented at best and increasingly no more than a smokescreen. Its adherence to the official narrative as promulgated by establishment-friendly 'reliable sources' effectively means that, to use the astrolonomical analogy from Gallileo's time, "the heavens must always be represented as revolving around the earth".[4]

Wikispooks is inspired and informed by several other open source collaborative projects, including Cryptome, Wikileaks, The Deep Politics Forum, SpinProfiles, SourceWatch and last but not least, that keeper of the official narrative on the internet, Wikipedia, with which it shares a common software platform, MediaWiki.[5]
