Consumerium - Enhancing Consumer Informedness since 2002 - Kuluttajisto - Kuluttajien voimaannuttamista jo vuodesta 2002
Consumerium itself
Consumerium itself is a not-for-profit effort to enable display of product information to consumers and feedback to producers and their owners in all countries of the world to enhance the consumer experience and to keep this planet as hospitable as possible. To this end Consumerium is compiling information on the countries of the world, technologies, convenience services for the consumer and more.
Our intent is to provide a knowledge graph and services for which we need infrastructure built with technologies.
Welcome, newcomers to our set of 1,173 Consumerium Effort development wiki articles crafted in the spirit of our philosophy where fairtrade, human rights in business, political consumerism, copyleft, free software, moral purchasing, w:consumer activism and w:shareholder activism are close to the core.
We are collaborating under the GFDL license, to design a healthy buying infrastructure. We are identifying hardware requirements for storage, transport and display of varying levels of product information to consumers and feedback to producers at the point of purchase to enhance the consumer experience, advance product development and to keep this planet as hospitable as possible.
Today is Monday 25 November 2024 and it is week #48. The wiki has 4,272 pages out of which 1,173 are articles with 51,040 edits. There are 36 uploaded files.
There are 68,093 registered users out of which 4 users are admin. Today the wiki is running on mw:MediaWiki 1.39.10 (2967077).

Footnotes
- ↑ The translation from Consumerium to Kuluttajisto was done by a bloke, whose name I cannot recall, on the ATTAC Finland bus trip to the Second European Social Forum 2003 in Paris by the time we had reached w:Töölö
Use [[w:Fairtrade]] to link to Wikipedia's article on fairtrade and [[w:fr:Commerce équitable]] to link to the article in the French Wikipedia as simple as that. ( works for all languages, just insert w:the correct lang code ). Avoid unnecessary replicating, we're in the GFDL part of the world after all :)
