"Wikicrimes is a software that allows posting and accessing criminal occurrences in a digital map. For this reason this activity is called crime mapping. The philosophy that drives Wikicrimes is the same as Wikipedia: mass collaboration produces valuable knowledge. That is to say, if everybody participates, the criminal mapping will be made collaboratively and everybody will leverage crime information digitalized in the map. That is the reason for the slogan "Share crime information. Keep safe!".
Wikicrimes is not a project developed by any security institution. In fact it is a project from the citizen to the citizen. It is also important to say that we cannot, neither is our desire, to act as the police. The fact of registering a criminal occurrence in WikiCrimes does not exempt the citizen from registering it with the suitable security institution."
