ProleWiki is a Dengist and Maoist-third worldist MediaWiki site founded in September 2020. The site has promoted itself as "the proletarian encylopedia". Although a self-described "communist (Marxist-Leninist)" and "anti-imperialist" project, the site militantly defends revisionist ideology, imperialism, and social-imperialism.
ProleWiki is infamous among the few socialist circles who are aware of it for its exceedingly narrow range of accepted ideological trends, with most of its editors being militant Dengists and those who are not often getting banned, its extreme sectarianism (with them denouncing anti-revisionists such as Maoists and Hoxhaists as being revisionists themselves, falsely) its nearly uncritical support for the economic and political system of China, Russia, and other modern capitalist states (of which they codify their support of in their "principles," which were determined solely by the site's founder in an ad-hoc manner), its extremely closed and numerically small administration, and its support of anti-science movements. Despite claiming to maintain 95 fully active editors as of December 2023, the site in reality has less than a dozen editors who are even moderately active. The site's administration is linked with online harassment and cyber-stalking campaigns and uses their closed Discord server to link to the unrelated websites of their critics, making the site's community more a web brigade as opposed to encyclopedists. The site's vetting process has been described by its administrators as being comparable to Stasi interrogations.
The site is greatly connected to other ideologically-aligned communities, such as Lemmygrad and GenZedong, and is dependent on these external sites for their recruitment of editors and preservation of the ideological line of the site, in many regards functioning as a front-organization. ProleWiki often serves as a "gateway" for Communists to be indoctrinated into chauvinistic and revisionary ideology, with the site actively promoting "Patriotic Socialist" and other social-chauvinist points of view and allowing users of those persuasions into the project. For example, the site openly defends members of the social-fascist and self-declared Patriotic Socialist "Party of Communists USA".
