⚠️ 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!

Wikitruth
Wikitruth is a dead website once dedicated to exposing the awful truth about dirty Wikipedophiles. Demise notwithstanding, any newcomer to the sport of kicking Wikipedia to death would have loved to read the articles there as an element of their preparatory education. Their collection of old and pre-censoring versions of Wikipedia "articles" was once unsurpassed. Bear in mind, however, that each and every Wikitruth editor was a batshit insane Nazi fucktard who was originally banned from Wikipedia for levels of sheer faggotry beyond even the scope of TOW.
History
Wikitruth was a Wiki but only for a very small group of bores who absolutely did not want you signing up for it. The site said that Wikipedia was a pile of pelican shit and that Jimbo Wales and all the other retarded editors (e.g. MONGO) were a gang of dictators who ruled the wonderful world of Wikipedia. Now who could believe that?
Over the few months when the site had some semblance of life, it also accumulated twenty or so original articles worth reading at least once. Then on February 5, 2009, it was locked down. [1]

Then in October 2010, the wiki closed down for good.
And then Wikipedia Review learned that Wikipedia:User:Silensor is the one who founded the site. He was never an administrator and quit editing in 2007.

Editors
The site was supposedly run by a bunch of butthurt editors from Wikipedia who were probably kicked off for being bores. Before they all died, Jimbo Wales claimed that "they are probably all trolls banned by Wikipedia" and "the site is a hoax" in spite of the fact that some articles on Wikitruth could only have been obtained by a Wikipedia administrator or the most compulsive watcher-and-copier or cache seeker. Now that the site is long dead and Wikipedia provides more drama every few weeks than Wikitruth's original articles ever covered, it looks like Jimbo might have had some inside knowledge when he called it a hoax.
The very few and very inactive (dead?) users all have stupid names:
- Badlysketchedbob - in all the ways that Badlydrawnjeff was a good name, this one is complete fail.
- Bob Johannsen
- Brass tacks
- Buttafuoco
- Climbing Jack
- D3str0y (Bot)
- Grammarbitch
- Hightimes
- Honeycomb Hideout
- Jachin
- KITTYLOAF
- Kira
- Lane (Bot)
- Leper Messiah
- Mastigoteuthis flamea
- Nibbler (Bureaucrat, Sysop) - some lame conspiracy name
- Nittygritty (Bot)
- Seek (Bureaucrat, Sysop)
- Will.i.am.tell (Bureaucrat, Sysop) - a dumb play on words
There were any guidelines on how to register as a member to be able to edit the Wikitruth wiki. This is presumably decided through some other form of interaction.
