| − | Organic Design is an organisation set up to facilitate the development of a number of [[projects]] being worked on by a small group of [[people]] working together as a team. The members of the team all share common ideals regarding [http://www.fsf.org free software], [[w:Peer-to-peer (meme)|decentralised solutions]] and the general idea of maximising re-usability of these solutions and actively sharing them with others.

| − |
| |
| − | There are many diverse software tools required across the diverse aspects of the projects and organisations, but its the shared documentation system that ties them all togther into a single unified structure. This site is our ongoing effort at creating an organised and reusable system for organising all these aspects using [[w:wiki|wiki]] software.
| |

| |
| − | This [[wiki organisation]] system involves establishing and refining a set of [[best practices]] which are conventions for all the members to adhere to when working together on projects managed within the site. In addition to these, all the [[procedures]] are documented and refined through use which optimises reuseability and knowledge sharing. It also reduces human error and makes tasks require less mental energy to perform.

| − | Our site is based on the [MW:Main Page|MediaWiki]] software which was designed for the [[W:Main Page|Wikipedia]] online encyclopedia. Wikipedia is a massive project involving thousands of tasks being performed by thousands of users, so it's a very good example which we've learned a lot from during the development of our own system. Some of our ideas for wiki organisation are more specific than Wikipedia, so we've developed many [[:Category:Extensions|extensions]] to the software to help it support our way of working more effectively.
