Wikigovernment: Not really a new word, but a new definition. Definition: The governing of a sovereign people, population, constituency, state(s), cities or otherwise via consensus or, even, wiki. The portmanteau of wiki and government. Reference: The American Political Handbook, Monday, May 5, 2009. ("Government for the wiki, by the wiki and of the wiki").
To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln "We here highly resolve that the dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth. 1809-65: address at the Dedication of the National Cemetery at Gettysburg, 19 November 1863; the Lincoln Memorial inscription reads 'by the people, for the people' " from the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations.
