| | |
| * specific issues -- ranging from the local (such as maintaining the vitality and relevance of [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_New_Seattle_Center The New Seattle Center]) to more sweeping (such as [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=Animal_rights animal rights]); and
| |
| * specific documents -- for example, the [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=Bill_of_Rights Bill of Rights], where the point is clarify the document and elicit more general engagement.

| While there is fairly little concrete detail about the structure of or motivations behind the project, the wiki seems open and inviting by design and text is available under a Creative Commons CCASL license.

| More Perfect also has a few properties of interest to wiki developers, most notably
| |
| | |
| * a streamlined, [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=Recent_Changes cruft-free RecentChanges page] (with full details behind a "Click for more details..." prompt);

| * a fairly detailed set of "[http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=What%27s_A_Wiki%3F Getting Started]" pages which, while too long and text-heavy to really be of much use, represent a good attempt at creating an invitation to participate; and
| |
| * a convention started by the founders, [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=User:Timothy Tim] and [http://www.moreperfect.org/wiki/index.php?title=User:Chad Chad], of listing specific "issues of interest to me" on user pages.
