The other day I was wondering about writing (or providing) information an entry for wikipedia about "noddegamra". Whilst I doubt we will benefit from it greatly, I do think it will be interesting.
Would anyone be interested in writing something? Does anyone have any experience in writing for wikipedia? I'm not sure if I have to meet any criteria for the entry to be accepted.

I've read a bit into it and it seems i need external sources like newspapers or famous people to somehow reference it. Noteable sources etc. So yes, doesnt look too likely at the moment  + dont want my own wiki, I can make one myself. I meant have an entry for "noddegamra" in wikipedia, covering like history of the site, the little logo/demon, what its about, how its evolved etc.

It's not well known enough to appear on Wikipedia. It'd just get deleted.
I have experience writing for Wikipedia so if you do need any help, give me a buzz.
I actually think a noddegamra-only wiki would be a good idea, (but it would have to be in the same style as Wikipedia as other Wikis I've seen on the Internet look shit, including that Wikia link that Yali provided), and would be useful to keep track of in-jokes, etc.

Also old comics, topics, competitions, etc. etc. I'll even volunteer to write random stuff down as well!

Well, a Noddewiki could be cool, but is it something we really need? And would it be used much?

About as much as the Arcade, I imagine... EDIT: Found the software package for making a wiki like Wikipedia, (it's free).

Who cares? I care. If there's no use for it, it will be "funny" for a week or two, then die.

What we really need is someone to write to a local newspaper as a furious citizen about how we encurage raping children and suicide (to name a few recent topics). Its what exploitation producers used to do when they want publicity for thier low budget movies. Then we would have our exteral source.
