Hi Derric,
Have any of you ever heard of Non-Violent Communication (NVC).
NVC is amazing and I very much encourage anyone to take it up. It goes
way beyond a method of thinking, it is a spiritual path. Like other
spiritual paths that means it may work if you practise

Good goals but I think you're doing several things wrong here.
1) Attempts to pose this as an external tool. Not many people who visit the
wiki will ever learn about the external website. You're effectively opening a
new contributors influx channel while not making the life of people who reached
