OccupyMediawiki was the wiki about the wiki farm for the Occupy and related protest wiki communities.

The wiki family formed to pool our expertise with the MediaWiki software (with a GrassRoots Theme custom skin, originally by ArxNet Design Team) so our wikis would take less of our time to maintain, but be better looking, less vulnerable to spam and other harmful use, and be more helpful to the social protests movements world wide. In doing so, we try to adhere to a few simple ideals. Our teams are still forming, but plan to have support staff available as near to 24/7 as we can from our volunteers.

The wiki farm is using dedicated servers in the Netherlands to make the wikis available. The choice of the hosts was a long and involved process to select the most secure option which also used green-sourced energy (and is carbon offset in addition) in an environmentally-certified data-centre. Our servers run BSD, and the software which make up the website can be viewed online.

OccupyMediawiki was actively accepting applications for hosting. If your protests-related group is in need of a wiki, please contact us.

As of December 2016, the link to the home page and the recent changes page both don't go anywhere, returning a "Cannot open page because you have attempted to connect to an undetected or unknown server" error message. In February 2018, the wiki has been confirmed dead and archived - a similar situation to what happened with MW Zip.
