I posted a response to user @goosefetisch@lemmy.ml here because they deleted their post after a deserved backlash from the Lemmy community. I didn’t want to discard the effort in compiling this information, so I thought I’d post it here.

It’s wonderful to see that Leftypedia is picking up again! Leftypedia is what inspired ProleWiki in the first place, before it went down for a while. I wish all the best in your work, and hope you’re able to bring more people to edit the site over time.
For those who will say that since ProleWiki is there, there’s no need for Leftypedia, or something like that, I profoundly disagree. To have more leftist wikis is always good, we need to be more present online in every form possible. But ProleWiki is specifically a Marxist-Leninist wiki, we are strict and don’t allow other “strands” of leftist ideology.
To have a wiki dedicated to other leftist thoughts can be very useful because our wiki may scare off those leftists more affected by anti-communist propaganda. And through their participation in Leftypedia and they can be eventually educated towards a more radical thought.
P.S. @Parabola@lemmy.ml I love Parabola too! In fact, I even created the image you use in your profile. Unfortunately, I no longer use it because I depend on some proprietary software to do some work, but I intend on using it if FOSS substitutes ever appear. It was the most stable system I ever used in my life, so I get really happy that others use it too
