Introduction
This project will guide us into the possibilities of Codes of Conduct, user guidelines, and other informal documents to manage online hate. Community rules are not only written files but labour intensive routines that imply human effort and affection. This project shares the experience of users and custodians, it comments on existing documents and celebrates the networks of care generated together.
Technical Documentation
In the forefront of the fight against hate, there are users committed to creating better social media experiences for them and for others. These users offer support with their work on moderation, technical knowledge, emotional labour, and many others.
Technical knowledge is relevant to:
- use moderation tools
- adapt, fork, customise moderation tools
- create new tools
- adapt, fork, customise social platforms
- create new platforms
- use software and hardware
- question autonomy
- experiment with protocols
- self-host
- understand tutorials
- write and send reports
These actions can be challenging, and they demand time, money and effort from a community. Networks of Care goes through some of these technical hurdles, it exposes processes and documents the experience of creating and maintaining this project.
Networks of Care is hosted on a Raspberry Pi and uses MediaWiki software to organise the content. It uses extensions such as Semantic MediaWiki and Page Forms. The main page shows a diagram that uses the API to get access to wiki features. It also uses Leaflet, a JavaScript library.
