WikiSim

What is WikiSim? WikiSim is not like any website I know of. The best description I've got so far is "A Public Commons for Democratic Sense-Making"... I'm sure there's a better way to describe it and I'm open to suggestions!

I've (finally!) produced an attempt at explaining what WikiSim is and what problem it's trying to solve. This is version 1 (or 3 depending on how you count it!). Thoughts, criticism, confusion, crickets, encouragement, excitement all very much appreciated 🙏

How to unify conflicting perspectives - v1 Some initial thoughts on how one or more people can unify their conflicting perspectives.

Some of the experiences and thoughts that have been swirling around my head for a while now on how we help ourselves and each other to better understand our complex world and all the diverse array of opinions and viewpoints in it. I welcome your comments & feedback!

This content is looking like the front page of @wikisim.org I was hoping it would become one day! The seeds of data driven surprise, cautious optimism, and challenges to do solved. More and better will come ☺️

WikiSim now has three new features for building and exploring models: a "Use Previous Result" option, and a table and a graph view to complement the JSON data view.

A Noughts and Crosses (aka Tic-Tac-Toe and Xs and Os) game board mid play. It describes how this game is powered by the Noughts and crosses (Tic-tac-toe) game model code from WikiSim: https://wikisim.org/wiki/1021v6

First post! Excited to announce you can now upload your own games, simulations and interactive mini sites to WikiSim! For example here's Noughts and Crosses (Tic-Tac-Toe) wikisim.org/wiki/1031

It's been a long journey to get to this point 🌱 The end of the beginning awaits!...
