CryptoParty Design Patterns in Howto section in chapter_00 ?
Yeah I agree that this is the best place. Was having a debate with Pettter on IRC about where or not the whole section should be in the book! From reading the entire page on the handbook ( https://cryptoparty.org/wiki/CryptoPartyHandbook) it appears that the book should be a crypto manual with a low barrier of entry for all in the first place but then also a resource dedicated for people attending cryptoparties second (So I see a well written howto section with lots of cultural references as essential to make it an effective outreach tool).

I agree that there should be some of this stuff in there. However, I am not convinced that it should involve "lots" of cultural references. The focus of the book should imo be usable and practical cryptographic tools, not politics, ideology or culture.
Cryptoparty London has inherited a culture of Do-ocracy, Sudo-Leadership, and Excellence from here:
https://cryptoparty.org/wiki/CryptoParty#Suggested_Conduct
which derives from:
Noisebridge's 'Tripartite Pillars'
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge_Vision#Tripartite_Pillars
and
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge_Vision
also ancestrally, from the international hackspace design patterns (from the 24th CCC in 2007,
