Wikispooks is an online wiki dedicated to collecting information about deep politics. In Marxist-Leninist terms, deep politics are the "private" affairs of the bourgeoisie, which are in contrast to the "public" affairs of the so-called "democratic" state.

The content on Wikispooks is not always of a high enough quality for use by ProleWiki, but it does provide a counter-hegemonic perspective to contrast the mainstream narratives promoted on Wikipedia and in the corporate-controlled media. While some perspectives promoted on Wikispooks can be considered right-wing, there as also some very good left-wing (materialist) analyses of imperialism and the capitalist ruling class.
