Featured article: LPediaLPedia is a collaborative digital archive and document repository dedicated to preserving the history and records of the Libertarian Party in the United States that was established in late February 2005. LPedia has evolved from its initial focus on party history to become the largest online collection of Libertarian Party information, documentation, and historical records. Beyond encyclopedic articles, LPedia maintains an extensive digital archive of official party documents, including governing documents, committee minutes, membership reports, resolutions, and state party records. By 2025, LPedia hosts over 6,000 articles and more than 11,000 uploaded files, serving as both a historical encyclopedia and a comprehensive repository of party documentation.

You Can Help!
- Find an identified needed article with a red link, click here for a list of missing but linked to articles, or create your article as shown below.
Check your state party article. Is it up to date? Do you know information about its history or some of its past chairs, officers, and the like that can be added? DO you have information on a topic listed on one of these lists? Can you think of things to add to one of those lists?

How to Help
You may create new pages, edit, discuss or update any content within this site.
This is a resource provided by the Libertarian Party to its members and the general public.
First, create an account by going HERE -- or else donate your content anonymously (however, anonymous accounts are restricted on protected pages).
To improve, update, or correct an article, sign in and click on the article's edit tab at the top of the page. You can click on the Show preview button to test your revision and press Save page button when you are finished with it.
To create a new article, simply add the name of the page that you would like to create to your browser's address bar. If the title contains two or more words, add an underscore instead of a space. For example, the address for the article about current national chair Bill Redpath is written as follows:
http://www.lpedia.org/index.php/Bill_Redpath
You would then see a page telling you that the article did not exist (unless it already exists, as is the case). Simply click on the edit tab to create and save your entry as described above.
If your editing skills aren't as good as you wish they were, note that you can improve the article later, and so can any other editor.
You can also create a user page in the form of User:YourUserName or just click on the red link of your user name to tell other editors about yourself and decorate it with Wikipedia-style userboxes.
- An offsite guide to Wiki formatting can be found Here.
- You can download a very useful one page Wiki Reference Card as a PDF.
- Or a less comprehensive, but much nicer looking, single page Wikipedia Cheatsheet, also as a PDF.
