⚠️ Encyclopedia Dramatica is currently being restored by automated scripts ⚠️
There's been a lot of questions as to what's going on with the site and what comes next. So we have this (ordered) roadmap of what's being worked on and what's to come. This will be updated until the roadmap is complete as Æ has a lot of missing features and ideas that I'd like to fix in regards to its offerings before I implement big plans for the site's popularity and well-being in 2021.
Æ Roadmap
Content restoration (Mostly done, few things missing that will be restored sporadically)Image restoration (Being run in background, nothing I can do cept wait)
Æ Imageboard (Currently being worked on)
Mediawiki upgrade and backend fixes
.onion domain for Tor-friendly editing and viewing
CSS overhaul (Fixing things like the videos on mobile, and overall a rehaul of the wiki's look to be more friendly to readers)
Paid bounty board for new articles (Won't be managed by me for legal reasons however I will ensure it runs smoothly)
Anonymous phone # service for those seeking ban evades from Twitter as well as a phone number not tied to their name (more details at launch)
Currently we are nearing our annual LLC renewal fee ($650) as well throwing the funds required for these other changes and aspects. If you would like to support Æ consider purchasing a copy of The Hustler's Bible or securing some Merch. Donating is also appreciated however I would rather give something back as per the two options above.
If you have any questions you can join our public Telegram chat to DM me privately or @ me in chat.
You can also email me via [email protected]
Merch notes: Thank you to all who have purchased merch. We will ship late January or mid February depending on our provider's speed.
Here's to setting the world on fire in 2021!

Danny Wool lives with his gay lover Ryulong in Miami, Florida -- they used to live together in New York. Danny is an ex-administrator on TOW and one heckuva guy, just like Essjay. After slaving away for years, pushing pencils, shining Jimbo's wiener, and denying Daniel Brandt satisfaction, he recently decided he'd had enough and resigned all his steward access, checkuser, bureaucrat, administrator, etc. on Wikimedia, and Wikipedia.
Then, while snorting a few lines between breakfast and brunch, he got nominated for administratorship once again, after leaving his position with the Wikimedia Foundation just days ago under shady, unknown circumstances, by Wikipedia's resident fatty, Cyde. The nom was accepted, and thinking it'd be a cakewalk, Danny took the steps to shit on exactly every single opposer (at this stage, around 50), dismissing all the opposers as "fatty fat fat fat lusaz" and ". When you've got the whole cabal behind you, one has nothing to fear.
Despite reaching WP:100 faster than a nigger on the hunt for a bucket of KFC, rather stubborn and infinitely better opposition arguments were presented:
—Bunchofgrapes, On Danny's RfA | ||
Yet, despite the absence of motherfuckin' consensus, Danny was promoted by Raul654 and his basement dwelling cronies - not really a surprise, but MOTHERFUCKING SURPRISE! Hilarity ensued[1][2] as the many butthurt wikipedos bitched and whined about how the bureaucratic fucks totally disregarded all opposing arguments and passed the RfA. A reform of the administrator promotion process was even suggested, lolz! But in the end, the only person who cared was Grace Note.
Veropedia
On October 2007, Danny announced Wales' new slimy tentacle in the expansion of Wikimedia Foundation: Veropedia. This project, like Wikipedia, is for-profit, but the site at least says it publicly. Wool will act as a puppet.
Veropedia is supported by advertising. In the words of some blogger, "It’s an interesting way to try to monetize all of the information contributed by Wikipedia’s huge group of volunteers... And I’d be surprised if anyone who thinks that Wikipedia is not reliable enough is likely to put any more faith in the editors of Veropedia."
Jimbo’s Piggy Bank
In March 2008, Danny revealed what everyone else had known for a long time; that Jimbo was using public donated funds to finance his lifestyle [3]. However like a vengeful ex who shouts about all the illegal stuff they did while they were together, Danny doesn’t seem to realise that he has dropped himself into the shit by publicly acknowledging that he knew about these “financial irregularities” at the time.
