The Justice For Animals Wiki is an encyclopedic, collaboratively developed resource useful for animal rights and vegan advocacy—as well as for living vegan. We already offer useful content, but we are just getting started.

{{jfa-share}}
  
We use the same software platform as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia], 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 living vegan.
+
== Main Articles ==
  
Like Wikipedia, we place importance on supplying creditable sources for factual statements that are not general knowledge.
+
=== Beginner  ===
  
And also like Wikipedia, users can write new content and edit existing content. See[[Help:Writing and Editing for the JFA Wiki | Writing and Editing for the JFA Wiki]].

=== Usefully organized ===
+
{{#dpl:
 
+
| namespace=Assignment
The site is organized into the kinds of information we use in advocacy—basic information, objections to veganism, facts to back up assertions, and summaries of various kinds. This way of organizing also inspires discovery and learning.
+
| format  = ,\n* [[%PAGE%|%TITLE%]],,
 
+
| ordermethod=title
The further division of information in each section into the topics of ''animals'', ''ethics'', ''earth'', ''health'', and ''humanity'' provides a uniform structure to help you get to the information you are interested in.
+
| noresultsheader = * No results for Namespace: Assignment
 
+
}}
=== Evidence based ===
 
 
 
When we present a piece of information as fact, that information should be based on credible supporting evidence, not conjecture or unsubstantiated claims. We provide citations or links to credible sources for factual statements that are not general knowledge. We minimize using animal rights organizations for sources in cases where believability would be an issue to a non-vegan audience but not because the information is inaccurate.
 
 
 
=== Non-hyperbolic ===
 
 
 
Hyperbole and sensationalism are not welcome here. The case for animal rights and veganism is strong, and the objections are weak. There is no need to exaggerate.
 
 
 
In talking about the cruelties inflicted on animals, the reality of what's happening may seem to be an exaggeration when it is not. It's especially important that when we make claims that may seem hyperbolic but in fact are not that we are able to back up those claims with supporting evidence.

"The philosophy of animal rights stands for, not against justice. We are not to violate the rights of the few so that the many might benefit. Slavery allows this, child labor allows this, all unjust social institutions allow this, but not the philosophy of animal rights, whose highest principle is that of justice." Tom Regan
