This article is about the history and notable events that happened on ProleWiki. For a description of the wiki, see the About page.
ProleWiki is a free, collaborative Marxist-Leninist encyclopedia founded in September 2020 aiming to build an anti-imperialistproletarian online collection of pages and essays with information on history, current events, communist parties worldwide, and countries, as well as hosting a library of texts important to the international proletarian movement.
ProleWiki was first proposed as an idea on Lemmygrad. As of April 2024, ProleWiki is available in nine languages and has over 3,000 articles and almost 7 million page views.
One goal established for the project at the time of its founding was to make ProleWiki as self-sufficient as early as possible. An influx of new users in late 2022 led to democratic reforms, allowing editors to vote on account requests.
