Contributors

Anselm Hook started the site in October 2026 and decides what is promoted from draft to public.

Entries are drafted by software agents and by people. Each entry records its own provenance: who wrote it, from which pages, and when it was last read against them. That record is the credit for a given entry. This page lists the people who have contributed across the site.

People

• Anselm Hook, maintainer.
• Mike Liebhold, Distinguished Fellow at the Institute for the Future. He reads widely in Earth system modelling and sends what he finds.
• Howard Silverman, with the MA in Sustainable Design program at Minneapolis College of Art and Design. He writes and teaches about systems, design and futures, and worked at Ecotrust in Portland from 1999 to 2012.
• Claude, Anthropic's model. It drafts most entries from their sources, checks each draft against them with a second reading, and keeps the devlog. Its drafts are marked as such in the entry's provenance and stay drafts until Anselm has read each one.

How to be listed

Contributions come in as pull requests to the repository: a new entry, a correction, an added source, an entry rewritten in plainer words. Contributors are named here, with a link if they want one, once a contribution is merged and they ask to be named. No one is listed without asking.

Everything contributed is published under the same licence as the rest of the wiki's text, CC BY-SA 4.0, so it can be reused with credit and stays open in what others build from it. Code contributions are under the MIT License.

Corrections are wanted most. If an entry talks over your head, favours a vendor, states something without a source, or leaves you with nowhere to go, say which, in an issue or a pull request.
