Queer Spore

QueerSpore aims to note and map queering approaches in wiki-making and de-norming of things taken for granted in the wiki-cultures. It is initiated here to be able to freely host experiments, as well as to register the ideas, concepts, topics and themes, but also projects, programs and discourses that challenge norms elsewhere. It is accessible via https://Queer.WikiSpore.org/
