It is multilingual and everything is translatable (including polls and forums). It also supports revisions. Anybody can submit content but a user with an appropriate role should review that revision before publishing it. The site also incorporates multiuser chat module written by me using Node.JS and Socket.IO. Another interesting module written by me in this project is a unique taxonomy module for positions politicians held in their political career. There are also links between articles and public figures or politicians and also between businesses and public figures. All users including anonymous users can upload images and videos in the articles they submit. The site uses CKeditor for WYSISWYG editor. There are several CKeditor modules written by me for that site. Anyone who is interested can try everything out on the live site. CKeditor uses KCFinder (redevelopped by me to meet site needs) as a file browser. I also created a module for online petitions with mail confirmation and comments attached at the bottom. Another interesting part of the site I did is the random politician carousell at the front page with their ratings.
