WikiDeal - Markets / Portal Content Structure

Markets — Portal Content Structure

🏛️ One Wiki, Many Apps — WikiDeal adapts the Wikipedia architecture: a single shared MediaWiki feeds many purpose-built apps. See how the architecture works →

Decision basis 2026-06-13: the marketplace dimension wins (≈55% Market / 45% Contract). We are clearly in the Market dimension — markets contain not only contracts but also lawyer validation, legal references, and compensations. The Contract: namespace becomes a set of content types inside Markets.

1. URL Pattern

wikideal.net/wiki / Markets / <lang> / Portal:<PortalName> / Main
<lang> = en (English) + fr (Français) only, phase 1 (other languages later, after first results) — e.g. Markets/fr/Portal:Babysitting/Main

Segments: Markets (plural) · /<lang>/ language segment (en, fr, de…; sits between Markets and the content type; /fr/ for French) · Portal:<Name> · /Main = the portal's rules of the game.

2. Content Types (as if already in MediaWiki)

About a dozen content types live under each market portal. The /en/ language segment applies throughout (multilingual).

Content type	MediaWiki URL (proposed)	Description
Portal Main	`Markets/en/Portal:<Name>/Main`	The portal's "rules of the game" — governing conventions for this market portal. One Main per portal.
Contract Base	`Markets/en/Portal:<Name>/Contract-Base:<Name>`	The base contract — where all the major clause cultures / clause groups are discussed. Includes the clauses (clauses are part of the base, not a separate URL segment). This is the foundation, not a template.
Contract Model	`Markets/en/Portal:<Name>/Contract-Model:<Name>`	Concrete models built on top of the bases. Several models can derive from one base. Models ≠ bases.
Contract Base — Amendment	`Markets/en/.../Contract-Base-Amendment:<Name>`	Amendment applied to a base.
Contract Base — Addendum	`Markets/en/.../Contract-Base-Addendum:<Name>`	Addendum (avenant) applied to a base.
Contract Model — Amendment	`Markets/en/.../Contract-Model-Amendment:<Name>`	Amendment applied to a model.
Contract Model — Addendum	`Markets/en/.../Contract-Model-Addendum:<Name>`	Addendum (avenant) applied to a model.
Contract Validated NEW — added per 2026-06-13	`Markets/en/.../Contract-Validated:<Name>`	Contract validated by lawyers. Proof that the market includes legal validation, not only templates.
Legal Reference	`Markets/en/.../Legal-Reference/<Country>:<Name>`	Database of legal references, organized by country (and by language, via the /en/ segment). Country + language pointers.
Compensation	`Markets/en/.../Compensation:<Name>`	Compensatory measures. Multiple dimensions (see below). A model can also exist for compensations.
