Platformwiki:About

From Platformwiki

The Republican Party Platform Wiki is a project that envisions modifying the 2004 platform, as adopted on August 30, 2004 by the delegates to the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York City, using the the collaborative resources of the wiki. The founders of this project hope that the end result will be consideration of this platform at the 2008 Republican Convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

The 2004 platform is the standing vision and statement of the Republican Party’s values and principles. Although dated as a result of the passage of more than two and half years, we believe it is important to begin here so that our progress can be traced from that date to today and beyond through the wiki edit capturing feature.

In the end we will have a new platform, but we will also have a record of the debate over each item in the record each user edit leaves behind.
