Where to start

Getting started is as simple as requesting an account, which will be approved as long as it does not appear to be intended for spam or malice. Then, make sure to read our short content guide to get a feel for what belongs in the wiki. You may also want to have a look at some data source suggestions on where to find reliable data. That's it, happy editing!

Current Focus

Our focus this season is: ICANN History. Our community is working together on surfacing information from ICANN's history, including going over its documents, blog posts, Working Groups (including the already great article on Working Groups!), and all other relevant information that can help us understand how ICANN arrived where it is today.

-The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) brings together smaller stakeholder groups, which in turn bring together constituencies and other groups, together into one [[Supporting Organizations|Supporting Organization]] to develop policies, form consensus, and make recommendations related to [[gTLD]]s to the [[ICANN Board]]. This body was previously known as the [[Domain Name Supporting Organization]] (DNSO), which it replaced in 2003. The main objective of the GNSO is to keep gTLDs operating in a fair and orderly manner across the Internet, while promoting innovation and competition.

-A [[Name Collision]] describes the circumstance in which a term attempting to reach a private [[Domain Name]] results in resolving to a public Domain Name unintentionally. Private domain names are used in Intranets and in many corporations and organizations throughout the world. A domain name on a private network that matches a name in the public Internet can create security risks, confusion, and systems failure. Although the Name Collision issue is not new, a renewed interest in the issue came about in 2013 as [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]] was preparing to delegate hundreds of new domain names to the [[Root Zone]]. The topic was debated fiercely within the ICANN community when a report by Interisle Consulting was prepared for and released by ICANN.<br /><br />
