Private Direct Messages
-----------------------
`draft` `optional`
This NIP defines an encrypted direct messaging scheme using [NIP-44](44.md) encryption and [NIP-59](59.md) seals and gift wraps.
## Direct Message Kind
Kind `14` is a chat message. `p` tags identify one or more receivers of the message.
```js
{
"id": "<usual hash>",
  "pubkey": "<sender-pubkey>",
"created_at": now(),
  "kind": 14,
  "tags": [
    ["p", "<receiver-1-pubkey>", "<relay-url>"],
    ["p", "<receiver-2-pubkey>", "<relay-url>"],
    ["e", "<kind-14-id>", "<relay-url>", "reply"] // if this is a reply
["subject", "<conversation-title>"],
    ...
  ],
  "content": "<message-in-plain-text>",
}
```
`.content` MUST be plain text. Fields `id` and `created_at` are required.
Tags that mention, quote and assemble threading structures MUST follow [NIP-10](10.md).
Kind `14`s MUST never be signed. If it is signed, the message might leak to relays and become **fully public**.
## Chat Rooms
The set of `pubkey` + `p` tags defines a chat room. If a new `p` tag is added or a current one is removed, a new room is created with clean message history.
Clients SHOULD render messages of the same room in a continuous thread.
An optional `subject` tag defines the current name/topic of the conversation. Any member can change the topic by simply submitting a new `subject` to an existing `pubkey` + `p`-tags room. There is no need to send `subject` in every message. The newest `subject` in the thread is the subject of the conversation.
## Encrypting
Following [NIP-59](59.md), the **unsigned** `kind:14` chat message must be sealed (`kind:13`) and then gift-wrapped (`kind:1059`) to each receiver and the sender individually.
```js
{
"id": "<usual hash>",
  "pubkey": randomPublicKey,
  "created_at": randomTimeUpTo2DaysInThePast(),
"kind": 1059, // gift wrap
  "tags": [
    ["p", receiverPublicKey, "<relay-url>"] // receiver
  ],
  "content": nip44Encrypt(
    {
"id": "<usual hash>",
      "pubkey": senderPublicKey,
      "created_at": randomTimeUpTo2DaysInThePast(),
      "kind": 13, // seal
      "tags": [], // no tags
      "content": nip44Encrypt(unsignedKind14, senderPrivateKey, receiverPublicKey),
      "sig": "<signed by senderPrivateKey>"
    },
    randomPrivateKey, receiverPublicKey
  ),
  "sig": "<signed by randomPrivateKey>"
}
```
The encryption algorithm MUST use the latest version of [NIP-44](44.md).
Clients MUST verify if pubkey of the `kind:13` is the same pubkey on the `kind:14`, otherwise any sender can impersonate others by simply changing the pubkey on `kind:14`.
Clients SHOULD randomize `created_at` in up to two days in the past in both the seal and the gift wrap to make sure grouping by `created_at` doesn't reveal any metadata.
The gift wrap's `p`-tag can be the receiver's main pubkey or an alias key created to receive DMs without exposing the receiver's identity.
Clients CAN offer disappearing messages by setting an `expiration` tag in the gift wrap of each receiver or by not generating a gift wrap to the sender's public key
## Publishing
Kind `10050` indicates the user's preferred relays to receive DMs. The event MUST include a list of `relay` tags with relay URIs.
```js
{
"kind": 10050,
"tags": [
["relay", "wss://inbox.nostr.wine"],
["relay", "wss://myrelay.nostr1.com"],
],
"content": "",
//...other fields
}
```
Clients SHOULD publish kind `14` events to the `10050`-listed relays. If that is not found that indicates the user is not ready to receive messages under this NIP and clients shouldn't try.
## Relays
It's advisable that relays do not serve `kind:14` to clients other than the ones tagged in them.
It's advisable that users choose relays that conform to these practices.
Clients SHOULD guide users to keep `kind:10050` lists small (1-3 relays) and SHOULD spread it to as many relays as viable.
## Benefits & Limitations
This NIP offers the following privacy and security features:
1. **No Metadata Leak**: Participant identities, each message's real date and time, event kinds, and other event tags are all hidden from the public. Senders and receivers cannot be linked with public information alone.
2. **No Public Group Identifiers**: There is no public central queue, channel or otherwise converging identifier to correlate or count all messages in the same group.
3. **No Moderation**: There are no group admins: no invitations or bans.
4. **No Shared Secrets**: No secret must be known to all members that can leak or be mistakenly shared
5. **Fully Recoverable**: Messages can be fully recoverable by any client with the user's private key
6. **Optional Forward Secrecy**: Users and clients can opt-in for "disappearing messages".
7. **Uses Public Relays**: Messages can flow through public relays without loss of privacy. Private relays can increase privacy further, but they are not required.
8. **Cold Storage**: Users can unilaterally opt-in to sharing their messages with a separate key that is exclusive for DM backup and recovery.
The main limitation of this approach is having to send a separate encrypted event to each receiver. Group chats with more than 100 participants should find a more suitable messaging scheme.
## Implementation
Clients implementing this NIP should by default only connect to the set of relays found in their `kind:10050` list. From that they should be able to load all messages both sent and received as well as get new live updates, making it for a very simple and lightweight implementation that should be fast.
When sending a message to anyone, clients must then connect to the relays in the receiver's `kind:10050` and send the events there, but can disconnect right after unless more messages are expected to be sent (e.g. the chat tab is still selected). Clients should also send a copy of their outgoing messages to their own `kind:10050` relay set.
## Examples
This example sends the message `Hola, que tal?` from `nsec1w8udu59ydjvedgs3yv5qccshcj8k05fh3l60k9x57asjrqdpa00qkmr89m` to `nsec12ywtkplvyq5t6twdqwwygavp5lm4fhuang89c943nf2z92eez43szvn4dt`.
The two final GiftWraps, one to the receiver and the other to the sender, are:

NIP-54
======
Wiki
----
`draft` `optional`
This NIP defines `kind:30818` (a _parameterized replaceable event_) for long-form text content similar to [NIP-23](23.md), but with one important difference: articles are meant to be descriptions, or encyclopedia entries, of particular subjects, and it's expected that multiple people will write articles about the exact same subjects, with either small variations or completely independent content.
Articles are identified by lowercase, normalized ascii `d` tags.
### Articles
```js
{
"content": "A wiki is a hypertext publication collaboratively edited and managed by its own audience.",
"tags": [
[ "d", "wiki" ],
[ "title", "Wiki" ],
]
}
```
[INSERT NORMALIZATION EXAMPLES]
The content should be Markdown, following the same rules as of [NIP-23](23.md), although it takes some extra (optional) metadata tags:
- `title`: for when the display title should be different from the `d` tag.
- `summary`: for display in lists.
- `a` and `e`: for referencing the original event a wiki article was forked from.
One extra functionality is added: **wikilinks**. Unlike normal Markdown links `[]()` that link to webpages, wikilinks `[[]]` link to other articles in the wiki. In this case, the wiki is the entirety of Nostr. Clicking on a wikilink should cause the client to ask relays for events with `d` tags equal to the target of that wikilink.
### Merge Requests
Event `kind:818` represents a request to merge from a forked article into the source. It is directed to a pubkey and references the original article and the modified event.
[INSERT EVENT EXAMPLE]
### Redirects
Event `kind:30819` is also defined to stand for "wiki redirects", i.e. if one thinks `Shell structure` should redirect to `Thin-shell structure` they can issue one of these events instead of replicating the content. These events can be used for automatically redirecting between articles on a client, but also for generating crowdsourced "disambiguation" pages ([common in Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Disambiguation)).
[INSERT EVENT EXAMPLE]
How to decide what article to display
-------------------------------------
As there could be many articles for each given name, some kind of prioritization must be done by clients. Criteria for this should vary between users and clients, but some means that can be used are described below:
### Reactions
[NIP-25](25.md) reactions are very simple and can be used to create a simple web-of-trust between wiki article writers and their content. While just counting a raw number of "likes" is unproductive, reacting to any wiki article event with a `+` can be interpreted as a recommendation for that article specifically and a partial recommendation of the author of that article. When 2 or 3-level deep recommendations are followed, suddenly a big part of all the articles may have some form of tagging.
### Relays
[NIP-51](51.md) lists of relays can be created with the kind 10102 and then used by wiki clients in order to determine where to query articles first and to rank these differently in relation to other events fetched from other relays.
### Contact lists
[NIP-02](02.md) contact lists can form the basis of a recommendation system that is then expanded with relay lists and reaction lists through nested queries. These lists form a good starting point only because they are so widespread.
### Wiki-related contact lists
[NIP-51](51.md) lists can also be used to create a list of users that are trusted only in the context of wiki authorship or wiki curationship.
Forks
---------
Wiki-events can tag other wiki-events with a `fork` marker to specify that this event came from a different version. Both `a` and `e` tags SHOULD be used and have the `fork` marker applied, to identify the exact version it was forked from.
Deference
---------
Wiki-events can tag other wiki-events with a `defer` marker to indicate that it considers someone else's entry as a "better" version of itself. If using a `defer` marker both `a` and `e` tags SHOULD be used.
This is a stronger signal of trust than a `+` reaction.
This marker is useful when a user edits someone else's entry; if the original author includes the editor's changes and the editor doesn't want to keep/maintain an indepedent version, the `link` tag could effectively be a considered a "deletion" of the editor's version and putting that pubkey's WoT weight behind the original author's version.
Why Markdown?
-------------
If the idea is to make a wiki then the most obvious text format to use is probably the mediawiki/wikitext format used by Wikipedia since it's widely deployed in all mediawiki installations and used for decades with great success. However, it turns out that format is very bloated and convoluted, has way too many features and probably because of that it doesn't have many alternative implementations out there, and the ones that exist are not complete and don't look very trustworthy. Also it is very much a centralized format that can probably be changed at the whims of the Wikipedia owners.
On the other hand, Markdown has proven to work well for small scale wikis and one of the biggest wikis in the planet (which is not very often thought of as a wiki), [StackOverflow](https://stackoverflow.com) and its child sites, and also one of the biggest "personal wiki" software, [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/). Markdown can probably deliver 95% of the functionality of wikitext. When augmented with tables, diagram generators and MathJax (which are common extensions that exist in the wild and can be included in this NIP) that rate probably goes to 99%, and its simplicity is a huge benefit that can't be overlooked. Wikitext format can also be transpíled into Markdown using Pandoc. Given all that, I think it's a reasonable suspicion that mediawiki is not inherently better than Markdown, the success of Wikipedia probably cannot be predicated on the syntax language choice.
# Appendix 1: Merge requests
Users can request other users to get their entries merged into someone else's entry by creating a `kind:818` event.
```js
{
"content": "I added information about how to make hot ice-creams",
"kind": 818,
"tags": [
[ "a", "30818:<destination-pubkey>:hot-ice-creams", "<relay-url>" ],
[ "e", "<version-against-which-the-modification-was-made>", "<relay-url>' ],
[ "p", "<destination-pubkey>" ],
[ "e", "<version-to-be-merged>", "<relay-url>", "source" ]
]
}
```
`.content`: an optional explanation detailing why this merge is being requested.
`a` tag: tag of the article which should be modified (i.e. the target of this merge request).
`e` tag: optional version of the article in which this modifications is based
`e` tag with `source` marker: the ID of the event that should be merged. This event id MUST be of a `kind:30818` as defined in this NIP.
The destination-pubkey (the pubkey being requested to merge something into their article can create [[NIP-25]] reactions that tag the `kind:818` event with `+` or `-`

NIP-FF
======
NUDs
----
`draft` `optional`
This NIP defines the creation of **NUD**s: _Nostr Unofficial Documents_, which are descriptions of standards and sub-standards that do not pertain to this NIPs repo.
Anyone can create a NUD and they are immediatelly valid as soon as they are published. NUDs have owners and can be modified by these owners at any time, but they can also be forked or reinterpreted by others.
NUDs MUST declare the event kinds they use and then those kind reservations SHOULD be taken into account in the NIPs big table of known kinds, with a link to the NUD.
Multiple forks of a NUD can exist at the same time -- although eventually it's natural that one of them becomes the _de facto_ winner. The NIPs repo SHOULD make reasonable judgements about which is which when considering what NUD to add to its big table (it's also ok to have multiple forks added, if there aren't clear winners).
The NIPs repo SHOULD make reasonable judgements about what NUDs to actually add to the big table in the first place, as some may not meet basic decency criteria or may not be used at all, so they SHOULD NOT be added, or they SHOULD be removed later if the assumptions change.
