Welcome to the War Resisters' International Wiki -- WRIWiki. Experienced and beginning Wiki users are welcome to come on board. Please make sure to create an identity for the WRI website and log in to every session. You need to be logged in to write new messages or edit existing messages, though you are free to look around the site as an anonymous guest.

Users can change the website and the wiki's default operating language -- after you have logged in, look under "my account" in the left menu bar, where you can change the default language. You can also temporarily change the language using the language switcher in the top left of any page.

Our cheat sheet will give you some help about how to edit a Wiki page - it works very similar to well-known Wikipedia.

WRI Programme related Wiki pages

Right to Refuse to Kill

The Wiki is also being used to create a knowledgebase around WRI's Right to Refuse to Kill programme.

Globalising Nonviolence

The War Resisters' International Triennial Conference Globalising Nonviolence took place in Germany from 23-27 July 2006. It is expected that the existing Triennial wiki pages will become inactive, but users are encouraged to start new wiki pages for evaluations of the conference, workshop reports, and so forth.

Translation resources

You are free to write in any language. We hope to use the wiki to increase both the speed and accuracy of our translations; see the Translation resources page for help with specific translation terms.

Website manuals

The Wiki is also used to create and develop a series of Website manuals, which will help users to contribute to the WRI website. Please help to improve the existing manuals and add ones that you think are missing.
