I started this page for us to '''think aloud''' about how to arrange the [[wikis|production wiki]] or [[wikis|production wikis]] as opposed to this being the [[Development Wiki]]. '''This is one of the biggest problems along with [[license|licensing]] and [[Alternate wiki-implementations|software]] decisions that is stopping us from entering a [[pilot]] [[stages|phase]]

This page is assuming a '''[[one wiki model]] for simplicity's sake''' (No distinct [[Signal Wiki]]/[[Research Wiki]] or [[Content Wiki]]/[[Opinion Wiki]] distinction.) [[How many wikis]]? is a problem too that has to be solved. The most appropriate forum for figuring this out is to get some clear idea of '''[[Consumerium Process]]'''

We must focus on '''how''' information '''is divided''' and how it '''is integrated'''. This is '''crucial''' to building a functioning [[Transparent Consumerium]].

*an international wiki eg. http://global.consumerium.org for [[transnational]] [[companies]], [[brand]]s, [[trademark]]s and [[product]]s with languages as in http://fi.global.consumerium.org for [[w:Finnish|Finnish]] texts about transnational issues.

*Local wikis for local products etc. eg.

*:http://fi.fi.consumerium.org (~~For~~ Finnish, about Finland)

Or we could have wikis arranged according to [[trade bloc]]s:

Retail [[product catalogue]]s will have to fit somewhere in this scheme. If it is assumed that there are no [[friendly retail]]-operators then [[product catalogue]]s will have to be [[wiki]] based, so that ordinary [[consumer]]s can contribute into building the catalogues for each store.

Many [[retail chains]] seem to have '''fairly uniform''' product offerings from one store to another, depending mostly on the [[store class]]:

*a [[micro market]] specializing in a wide offering of grab-and-eat products and only minimal stocks,

*a [[normal market]]

*a [[supermarket]] with offerings expanding to [[clothes]], [[toys]], [[household appliance]]s, [[DIY]], and even [[Furniture]]

*...

[[Logistics]] is a field where there is lots of improvement for enhancing the availability of [[local food]]. Now it is commonplace to have huge [[logistic center]]s where the stuff is transported first from the producer and then to the [[store]]
