We are excited to announce that the JusticeforAnimals.org wiki is now live, and existing content has been migrated to the new wiki platform. This is the same platform that Wikipedia uses, and like Wikipedia, anyone can author and edit content (see below). But unlike Wikipedia, all articles are written in the context of animal rights and veganism, with an emphasis on information that is useful for advocacy and to those exploring animal rights, veganism, and animal studies.
We have moved to this new platform to help us realize the site's expanded mission of providing a collaborative, encyclopedic, evidence-based body of knowledge useful for animal rights and vegan advocacy, and helpful to those exploring these subjects.
Articles that were in Basics Section on the old site can now be found in the Beginner Listing, and those in the Objection Section are now in the Replies Listing.
In moving to a wiki platform, the scope of the site has expanded. The new already site has lots of useful information that has been migrated, especially in providing talking points for replying to objections to animal rights and veganism. But a wiki takes an encyclopedic approach, calling for articles on a wide range of related topics.
