The Foresight Wiki is a web-based, collaborative project supported by the Executive Agency for Higher Education and Research Funding from Romania, and developed during the project Quality and Leadership for Romanian Higher Education. The name indicates that the wiki technology for developing collaborative websites is being used. This allows members of the Future Studies & Foresight community of practice to write articles that any other member can edit. The Foresight Wiki employs an open editing model where every article may be created or edited by any registered userand changes to an existing article become instantly available without review. No article is owned by its creator or any other editor; all the articles are collectively owned by the FORwiki community. Only the FORwiki Policies and Guidelines are restricted from editing, and changes can be made only by the Administrator after a consensus among members was reached. Other than that, any user of the Foresight Wiki can take advantage of features made available by Media Wiki. The "Discussion" pages associated with each article represent an essential component of the platform, as they materialize the dialogical nature of the Foresight Wiki. (more...)
