<p>knocking off some non-obvious phrases from Most Wanted Articles</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The &#039;&#039;&#039;wiki mission&#039;&#039;&#039; is the advertised purpose of a [[large public wiki]]. For instance [[Disinfopedia]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;&#039;mission&#039;&#039;&#039; is to create &quot;an encyclopedia of people, issues and groups shaping the public agenda&quot;. With this simple phrase it becomes relatively clear what the project is and is not doing. <br /> <br /> Sometimes, unwisely, a [[wiki ideology]] becomes overly dominant and confuses or distracts from the &#039;&#039;&#039;mission&#039;&#039;&#039;. This usually indicates a [[clique]] has taken over and perhaps [[usurper]] priorities contrary to the mission dominate. It may also indicate simple [[groupthink]] about what the mission is and how it is best performed, best countered by the [[New Troll point of view]].<br /> <br /> [[Consumerium:Itself|Consumerium, itself]] has several such mission statements that you can investigate at that page, finding statements like &#039;&#039;&#039;Consumerium is for...&#039;&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;&#039;Consumerium does...&#039;&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;&#039;Consumerium wants...&#039;&#039;&#039;, &#039;&#039;&#039;Consumerium needs...&#039;&#039;&#039;, in fact, any statement where [[subject-object problem|Consumerium appears as a subject and not as an object]] should be linked back to [[Consumerium:Itself]]. Similarly any statement of common mission or purpose by its users should be linked to [[Consumerium:We]] so it is clear what is being claimed, and [[what Consumerium is not]] can be updated.</div>
