They had me going up until Pedia Lyte.

Both Lost and Wookie Pedia are in my favorites.

Uncyclopedia stopped being funny what, three years ago? OMGOSCARWILDELOLBBQ!

It's like the encyclopedia version of Mos Eisley: a hive of scum and villainy.

Your mom (various birth dates) is the woman who gave birth to you; the person who nurtured you, changed your diapers, raised you, supported you, instilled in you a moral and ethical center; is the proud, beaming parent who loves you more than life itself; and a dick.

Shouldn't it be "the best non-pedia wikis"?

Wiki is the general term, Wikipedia is the brand.

And in case you're one of the six people left on the planet who aren't aware:

Unless your employer is OK with rampant racism, sexim, antisemitism, porn, gootse pics, animated GIFs of suicides, and so on -- Encyclopedia Dramatica is NSFW.

That said, if you can stomach it, it's frequently funny as hell.

This. I will note that it's impossible to explain to your wife why you're laughing at a guy in a fursuit humping a table. There's nothing you can say. Just lie and say you slept with her sister, it'll go over easier in the long run.

I read it on 'ki-pedia.

/Someone impress me nah...

Wait.. they have Wookiepedia but dont have WoWWIKI!

I love wookiepedia, but Ive spent hours reading through parts of the Warcraft Lore. Some of it is really interesting stuff.

Warcraft is proof that a game can have an expansive, dynamic storyline.

/gnomes FTW

ED is the Event Horizon that is 4Chan. It lets you creep up to the edge, look over yonder into the teaming mass of unbirth and slime, without being completely pulled into the untamble singularity of madness and insanity that is 4Chan.

Like standing on the precipice of doom and never jumping.

 
LesserEvil [TotalFark] 2008-06-02 01:20:08 PM  
You'd think that an article featuring web sites would, um, you know, have like LINKS to the sites so readers could also just click on them to hit the places they are discussing in the article....

I guess Wired needs to catch up with the times.

 
Marquis de Sod [TotalFark] 2008-06-02 01:20:09 PM  
There should be a Farkipedia for the noobs

 
Third Day Mark 2008-06-02 01:20:24 PM  
My favorite is the one they used to have for Tucker Carlson.

"Tucker Carlson is a smarmy douche." Never got past the opening line. Laughed too hard.

For punting, maybe. Seriously, they destroyed their own hometown and sponge off the dwarves now, which is only slightly more pathetic than the Trolls who can't reclaim their home islands from Zalazane the level 15 witch doctor.

Pfft! Its been established that gnomes are the only race that have figured out how to use Fission and Radiation.

All it would take would be a Gnome Kamikaze attack with a Gyro Copter to produce a mushroom cloud over Orgrimmar.

Hell, grab a Goblin Rocket Launcher and you've got an IRBM.

..as for morality.. Gnomes never put anyone in a concentration camp like the humans!

Zalazane is level 10.

Wikipedophilia.

Chikipedia.

I started the entry for Daisy Fuentes. I was buzzed and didn't spend to much time on it at first, but hey it's my little contribution to the tubes.

That's... that's a really good description for ED/4chan. It's disturbingly apt.

/Now please pull me back from this precipice.

Another vote for ED.

It's a great way to learn about Ebaumsworld.

All those things about my mother are true. I wonder if she would become up-set if I sent her that article.

I was going to write a full page of Lovecraft style descriptions but sadly I got pulled away from work.

The best Wiki by far is TV Tropes. Entire days are wasted there.

disagree, I got sucked into 4chan because ED talked so much about it.

I would love to see something like that. Complete with all of the standard phrases and pics and, when possible, an explanation of their meaning and/or origin.

I'm waiting....

Wiki is the general term, Wikipedia is the brand.

What are you talking about?


A wiki is a general term for a collection of webpages that anyone can edit.

Wikipedia is a single implementation of it, and they used it to create an encyclopedia, hence Wikipedia.

However, this is not the only use for a wiki. All of the examples in the article ARE in fact, wikis, yet the headline calls them "non-wikis," and lays the label of "pedia" on them which makes no sense.
