A [[Community TLD]] is a regulated type of [[gTLD|generic top level domain name]] (gTLD) made possible through [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]]; it is intended for community groups that are interested in operating their own TLD [[registry]].
Community TLDs must represent a clearly delineated group or groups of people or entities. Examples could include cultural, religious, social or industry associations. The existence of the group must be clearly established.
Community groups are given precedence for TLDs in contention; that is, if there are multiple applicants for a given string, and one of the applicants applies and proves community status, the community group is automatically given precedence to the TLD. Community status is proven through a process known as '''Community Priority Evaluation'''.<br /><br />

[[.com]] is one of the first [[TLD]]s to be used on the Internet's [[Domain Name System]]; it was originally intended for commercial purposes, though there are no current restrictions limiting it to commercial entities. It was introduced in 1985 by [[IANA]], which is responsible for the overall coordination and management of the DNS; the organization was led by [[Jon Postel]] at the time. On January 28, 1986, the entities overseeing the DNS met and restructured its makeup to correspond to 8 TLDs, including .com, the others are: [[.gov]] (government), [[.edu]] (American higher education), [[.mil]] (American military), [[.org]] (organization), [[.int]] (international, specifically NATO relations), [[.net]] (sites related to the Internet itself), and [[.bitnet]] (computers on the BITNET network).

Featured Article

From the article featured during this season: "ICANN's Contractual Compliance and Consumer Safeguards department is charged by ICANN with enforcing the contractual compliance of registries and registrars through complaint-driven informal and formal resolution processes, ICANN-initiated monitoring, and compliance audits." Read more!

Current Focus

Our focus this season is: ccTLDs. Our community is working together on surfacing information about these stakeholders, including going over documents, blog posts, Working Groups (including the already great article on Working Groups!), and all other relevant information.
