'''Wiki ideology''' pervades [[large public wiki]]s. [[Consumerium:We|We]] should avoid it:

*[[neutral point of view]], i.e. [[community point of view]] is [[God's Eye View]], which encourages [[systemic bias]] by bringing in and reinforcing one's own [[faction]] by [[technological escalation]]
*[[virtual community]], i.e. confusing [[epistemic community]] with [[no body]] at risk with real bodily reality community where [[some body]] needs protecting, this leads directly to such other-body-risking games as [[outing]]
*[[developer vigilantiism]], a form of direct [[technological escalation]]
*[[sysopism]], just trusting a gang of thugs to judge and mediate the above

Many people believe these are just variants of [[fascism]] and [[racism]], or a particularly virulent sort of [[capitalism]] where those with [[infrastructure owners trust]] can run rampant, and this is justified by [[property rights]].
