Appropedia's Vision

When defining a Mission Statement, it's useful to describe a vision, which is a context for the Mission Statement

The Appropedia Vision is that all members of the international development community have the ability to find and connect with each other, and to collaborate in sharing the latest information, with multiple views on best practices, for sustainable development, poverty reduction and capacity building. They will have speedy access to each other and to this knowledge-base worldwide and in every desired language.

Specifically, this Vision includes:

Copyleft availability and usage rights for all sustainable development knowledge in developing nations
What are the best technologies for solving these challenges, by region and by culture
What labour / capital trade-off options exist for various solutions
In detail, how are these technologies deployed and what are the common pitfalls to avoid
What are the best techniques for engaging and partnering culturally and regionally
What are the best site assessment techniques for each project
Where can supplies and services best be secured, by region?
What are the best shipping / delivery options regionally?
What experts are open to being contacted with questions?

And more!

Appropedia's Mission

What does Appropedia regard as its Mission (its role and challenges) within the vision above?

Appropedia's Mission is to provide an easy-to-use, highly-available, fast, stable, open, fairly managed and multilingual library for sharing all the information, and to promote the use and expansion of the wiki in order to best support the advancement of Appropedia's Core Goals of:

Sustainability
Poverty Reduction
International Development and Capacity Building

Specifically, the Mission includes:

Assuring the presence and availability of adequate hardware resources.
Assuring timely firmware upgrades
Providing adequate system admin resources to keep the site available and spam-free
Assuring the development of clear and effective policies
Active recruitment of contributors, editors, admins, engaged consumers and commentators.
Ensuring up-to-date infrastructure (enhancements, templates, categories, and so on)
Requests for permission to republish original content
Pursuit of useful regional info, e.g. travel, supply chain, services, or links to same.
Aggressively discouraging inappropriate material or use (e.g. copyright violations)
Continual pursuit of features (wiki and non) to increase community effectiveness
Maintaining privacy of information as appropriate
Continual low key querying of community for improvement opportunity
Continual low key querying for potentially missed community elements
Promoting the Vision above (ads, articles, conferences, T-shirts, stickers, comments)

For purposes of clarification, the mission does not include:

Driving internet accessibility to remote locations.
Providing translation services
Responsibility for delivering all content
Purchasing rights for protected intellectual property
Validating accuracy of content

See Appropedia_talk:Mission for discussion about this mission.
