Meta:Content and features

Content and features overview
In March of 2009 we launched the OpenCongress Wiki. It was a merger between OpenCongress and the now-defunct Congresspedia, and the move and upgrade has resulted in several exciting new things:
 * Many articles on the OpenCongress Wiki are integrated with OpenCongress, including:
 * Profiles for members of Congress
 * Wiki articles on legislation
 * Community projects have been improved as well. Some to check out:
 * RaceTracker &mdash; your source for every race in the 2010 congressional elections
 * Transparency Hub &mdash; a one-stop-shop for transparency-related resources
 * Enhancements to the profiles for members of Congress include:
 * Video from their YouTube channel (if available)
 * Their latest tweets on Twitter
 * Direct e-mail links to contact your lawmakers

You can also find some oldies but goodies, which we've polished for the OpenCongress rollout:
 * Profiles of important bills and votes
 * Detailed How Congress Works articles
 * Profiles of congressional candidates
 * Local blogs about Congress
 * Maps for every congressional district
 * Members of Congress under investigation

Community-driven policy
While we’re using the Congresspedia content as a starting point, we do want to make the OpenCongress Wiki a user-driven community. That means we’re looking for your input on editorial policy, the structure of the wiki, etc. Join that conversation here.
