[[Image:WikiSynergy.gif|right|alt=WikiSynergy]]'''WikiSynergy''' is a new wiki which attempts to document and discuss "frontier thought" by presenting all viewpoints on controversial subjects.  The site is founded on the principles of collegiality and the Global Point of View, which means that each viewpoint remains uncensored and is given its own space.  However, by putting viewpoints side by side (including skeptical viewpoints) the reader is given a clear picture of the debate and thus has the information to form their own opinions.  The site is set up to deal with most highly controversial issues, especially those which are scientifically controversial, such as the paranormal, alternative medicine, conspiracy theories etc.  There may be no other wikis set up to deal with controversial issues in this way.


<b>WikiSynergy</b> is a wiki which attempts to document and discuss "frontier thought" by presenting all opinions on controversial subjects. The site is founded upon the principle of collegiality, and the rule that each opinion remains uncensored, and is given its own space. However, by putting contrasting opinions side-by-side (including skepticism), the reader is given a clear picture of the debate, and thus has the information to form their own opinions. The site is set-up to deal with most highly controversial issues, especially those which are scientifically controversial, such as the paranormal, alternative medicine, {{tag|conspiracy}} theories, etcetera. There may be no other wikis that are set-up to deal with controversial issues in this way.
