Ikwipedia:Motivations for Ikwipedia

Ikwipedia was created based on a hypothesis, arguably unproven and possibly unverifiable, that a viewpoint's being counter to the mainstream narrative may negatively affect whether it is included in mainstream publishers like Wikipedia. This hypothesis seems to be supported by accounts of individuals, such as scientists and historians, who have allegedly faced retaliation for their counter-mainstream theories as well as whistleblowers or leakers involved in the alleged narrative-suppression and/or retaliation systems.

If a systematic disincentive to the inclusion of non-mainstream-aligned claims exists, it may be sized proportionally to the magnitude of a claim's deviation from the mainstream — possibly without regard to, or even in proportion to, a claim's alignment with the physical, metaphysical, reality-based, and metareality-based truth of the matter at hand — resulting in an unfairly extreme underrepresentation of extremely non-mainstream-aligned views. The consequences of this mechanism inhibit relatively credible witnesses from being seriously considered by secondary sources, particularly professional researchers who investigate published claims and accounts. The few testimonies that do gain traction may often go un-reviewed or unaggregated in publications like Wikipedia or scholarly articles. Presenting a more comprehensive view of the available information, therefore, logically requires counterbalancing this bias by amplifying certain narratives, testimonies, and theories that are aligned with extremely non-mainstream-aligned views and/or which have been inadvertently or deliberately misrepresented in mainstream discourse. Our observation that many seemingly disparate conspiracy theories are often aligned and reconcilable suggests they may warrant more consideration in that light. This encyclopedia is an attempt to explain everything without contradicting itself — with the assumption that written language (in the form of wiki articles) is adequate to do so, though it may not be). Presenting conspiracy theories fairly and examining the suggestive tendencies of language such as 'alternative narrative', 'conspiracy theory', and 'conspiracy' may allow a coherent theoretical understanding of reality to emerge.
