The web elf pointed out to me this evening that, of all communities, I had neglected to tell you lot about neilgaiman.info, the Neil Gaiman wiki.

Lucy Anne's idea, my coding and configuration, and a lot of GMZoe's time and effort, the idea is to have a wiki exploring Gaimania to its fullest. It's a reference work; it's a repository of trivia; it's a floor wax and dessert topping!

GMZoe has been putting an impressive amount of work into it. I've been adding stuff here and there as whimsy leads me. We could use your help. How about it?

Miss Elf rocks.

As does the Gaiman wiki

Hey now, is it me or has that site grown exponentially since the last time I looked? Good job, web elven.

Thanks! I suppose I'll keep them.


I used a picture you took (or at least posted) on the wiki's Nightwalker entry. I just went back and added attribution.

Well, you know, it's a wiki so it grows, and stuff. Right now it is largely a product of GMZoe's sweat and my whimsy.

I'm rather hoping some tipping point arrives whereupon the masses of Neil fans will descend upon the wiki like a horde of locust and populate it with their chittering spawn -err- with trivia and factoids and write-ups of whatever they like within the Neilsphere.

I haven't even tackled any big projects yet. I'm just doing a whole bunch of little side projects. Once people start actively writing, my stuff will look pitifully thin. Gives me a good reason to catch up on my reading though. I've had those Tekno Comix on my to read pile for years now

Nice job and good idea. I'll take a better look over the week-end and see if there's anything I can help with.

Yay! Help is good. Thanks.

The speech he gave at the Mythopoeic Society con in 2004 was excellent and I'm sure someone in the society would have the text if you need it -- www.mythsoc.org.
You guys rock for doing this, btw.
