Node [[node]]
Node
- You are currently visiting a node called 'node'.
-
[[noun]]
- An [[agora]] node is like a crowdsourced [[sequential wiki]] page on a [[topic]] or [[entity]].
-
Nodes and edges are the heart of the [[agora]], which is in essence a [[distributed knowledge graph]].
- A node maps to a [[wikilink]].
-
Nodes contain one or more [[subnodes]] volunteered by different [[users]] and [[sources]].
- Subnodes are currently plain Markdown notes stored somewhere on the internet.
- Sources are those available through an [[agora client]].
- TLDR: If you volunteered a Markdown note called node.md to this Agora, it would show up here like mine.
-
If you just got here from Twitter, consider [[agora twitter integration]].

Pulled node [[sequential-wiki]]
ContextSequential Wiki
- Not a formal term, but I use it often. A sequential wiki is like a wiki page, but people contribute blocks of [[content]] instead of arbitrary fragments; and they maintain clear ownership and control over their blocks.
- I call the [[agora]] a distributed sequential wiki. [[nodes]] are akin to sequential wiki pages. [[subnodes]] are user contributed blocks.
