Encyclopædia Dramatica was created on December 9th, 2004, while [[girlvinyl]] was impatiently awaiting the delivery of her [[P-p-p-powerbook|ibook]]. [[ghettofinger]] and [[girlvinyl]] were [[bawww|outraged]] and [[lol|amused]] by the ill-treatment of [[internet celebrity]] [[jameth]] by the [[nazi|moderators]] and idiots at [[Wikipedia]], and [[girlvinyl]] decided it was time to present an alternative to the fascist hold they had over information on the internets.

U.S. Route 491 (US 491) is a north–south U.S. Highway serving the Four Corners region of the United States. One of the newest designations in the U.S. Highway System, it was created in 2003 as a renumbering of U.S. Route 666 (US 666). With the 666 designation, this road was nicknamed the "Devil's Highway" because of the belief by many Christians that 666 is the Number of the Beast.[1] This Satanic connotation, combined with a high fatality rate along the New Mexico portion, convinced some people the highway was cursed. The problem was compounded by persistent sign theft. These factors led to two efforts to renumber the highway, first by officials in Arizona, later in New Mexico. Since the renumbering, there have been safety improvement projects, and fatality rates have decreased.[3]


The highway runs through Colorado, New Mexico and Utah, as well as the tribal nations of the Navajo Nation and Ute Mountain Ute Tribe. The highway passes by two mountains considered sacred by native Americans, Ute Mountain and an extinct volcanic core named Shiprock. Other features along the route include Mesa Verde National Park and Dove Creek, Colorado, the self-proclaimed pinto-bean capital of the world.

Hide Route description
The site's title was coined by [[user:33mhz|33mhz]] on [[jameth]]'s [http://archive.fo/irykZ journal]. On the inaugural install and first operational night of ED, [[scarlet]] and [[jeremyjx]] were added as [[Special:Listadmins|moderators]], with others following. Once the site was posted on [[LNN]], its audience and content grew exponentially.


US 491 serves the states of New Mexico, Colorado and Utah. Before 1992, US 666 also served Arizona. The Arizona portion was renumbered separately and is now part of US 191.[4] The former US 666 was the only highway to have passed through each of the Four Corners states at the same time, even though it never came near the Four Corners Monument, which is accessed via US 160.[5] At several points along US 491, mountain ranges in all of the Four Corners states are visible from a single location. The alignment of the highway is mostly north–south, however the Utah portion is signed east–west.[6]
Like all [[website]]s with user-generated content, ED quickly degenerated into a forum for [[unfunny]] revenge attempts by [[butthurt]] individuals of every description -- bigots, [[ban]]ned website users, [[lolcow|trolling victims]], failed [[troll]]s, and [[virgin]]s rejected by hot girls. [[99.9%]] of all ED articles are [[tl;dr]] ravings about things the person dislikes, or unknown and uninteresting [[LiveJournal]] or [[deviantART]] users who made someone mad by existing. The other .1% are archives of dead [[YouTube]] embeds. But nevertheless, it is still filled to the brim with lulz of every sort.


New Mexico
All users are welcomed to create and modify content to more accurately reflect the internets and help archive the never ending supply of e-drama. Please continue to add articles so that the encyclopedia will provide answers to questions like "What the hell is [[mediacrat]]?" and "Where are the [[lulz]]?"


Not to be confused with [[Dramapedia]], silly [[Not4chan|pedophiles]].


Gallup, New Mexico
== What's with the '''æ'''? ==
US 491 begins at Gallup, at a junction with Interstate 40 (I-40), and currently runs north along Muñoz Drive.[7] The routing has changed to bypass the downtown area. The original route used 9th Street, starting at US 66.[8] US 491 leaves Gallup and passes north through the eastern half of the Navajo Nation.[9] Along the way, the road passes through the small tribal communities and trading posts of Tohatchi, Buffalo Springs, Naschitti, Sheep Springs and Newcomb.[10] The Navajo tribal capital at Window Rock, Arizona, is just west of the highway corridor, accessed by State Road 264 (NM 264). The largest city served by US 491 in the Navajo Nation is Shiprock, which takes its name from one of several extinct volcano cores in the area. Shiprock is known as "the winged rock" in the Navajo language, and the mountain is considered sacred by the Navajo people.[11] Shiprock is where the US 491 crosses the San Juan River and is briefly concurrent with US 64. After passing Shiprock, the route continues north to the Colorado state line. The New Mexico portion has been designated the "John Pinto Highway" by the New Mexico state legislature.[10]
[[Image:Aelogo_black_on_blue.png|thumb|right|120px|A very good character]]
The proper spelling of Encyclopædia Dramatica includes the little '''æ'''; however, those characters are not allowed to be registered in domain names, so we used the mundane spelling. Feel free to use alt+145, alt+0230, or alt+z (option+' on OS X) if you'd like to experience it. As '''æ''' is confusing and mysterious like ED itself, it became the mascot for the site. æ is also a normal character in the Danish, [[France|French]], Icelandic and Norwegian alphabets.

Visitors touring Mesa Verde National Park, along US 491
Short Answer: <big>'''PROBABLY?'''</big>
The New Mexico–Colorado state line is where the highway passes from the Navajo Nation to Ute Mountain Ute tribal lands. The highway passes to the east of Ute Mountain, for which this branch of the Ute tribe is named, and believed to belong to a great warrier God of the Ute People.[12] US 491 proceeds diagonally to the northwest in the extreme southwestern corner of the state.[13] The highway exits tribal lands near Cortez and Mesa Verde National Park. After leaving Cortez, the road gradually rises in elevation while proceeding towards Utah. Here, the route features large pinto bean farming regions including Dove Creek, which bills itself as the "pinto bean capital of the world".[14] Canyons of the Ancients National Monument is located along the ascent, just west of the highway. Along this ascent is an access road for Hovenweep National Monument at the state line. A portion of the road in Colorado has been designated the Trail of the Ancients, a National Scenic Byway, which uses US 491 as an access for these parks and monuments in southwest Colorado.[15]


Utah
While there is a lot of material on ED that many find upsetting, the [[William Atchison|admins]] and users come from a variety of backgrounds. Some people understand [[satire]] and [[lulz]], even when the minority group they are a part of is targeted,  some know it was not a serious attack on them, and counter lulz to lulz the lulz are always an option.


Once in Utah, US 491 gradually ascends to the Abajo Mountains. Still visible are large farming regions. Upon reaching an elevation of 7,000 feet (2,100 m), the highway arrives at a weigh station and reaches the town of Monticello. US 491 enters the town on Central Street and terminates near the city park at an intersection with US 191, which runs along Main Street.[16] All highways in Utah are codified into law; US 491 is defined at Utah Code Annotated §72-4-137(11).[6]
The wiki takes a no-holds barred, nothing is sacred approach to everyone and everything, we create highly critical articles about everything [[interbutts|internet]] related, so as to make readers [[lol]] at its cruel, unforgiving and occasionally revealing qualities. Some [[EDiots]] don't purposefully set out to offend people, but the [[William Atchison|admins]] intend to make you die in a high school bathroom in [[New Mexico]]. Some EDiots portray the ridiculousness of many ignorant views that infect the world in a [[lulzy]] manner, because when you laugh at the more harsher aspects of life, the world becomes a better place. Of course, according to [[Meepsheep's Law]] where irony is confused with sincerity, other [[User:AlGore|fucktards]] take it seriously because they are soulless [[ginger]]s and go on to actually [[murder]] two random people at a high school after taking [[gun]] selfies in front of their bunk-bed in [[New Mexico]] and writing poems about how females are [[Srsly|"ten thousand kilometers away from my pee pee."]]

What most everyone is unaware of is that Encyclopedia Dramatica, in its original form, cost something akin to an arm and a leg to run. Most people probably forgot the constant begging for donations and complete site shutdowns that used to plague the site, but indeed it was bleeding dollars from every available [[goatse|orifice]].


The Abajo Mountains near Monticello
In an attempt to profit off the interest of [[NORP]]s without scaring them off with pictures of severed dicks and esoteric Internet nerd humor, WP80 was born. Whatport80 served as the work-safe alternative wiki to ED, meant to mirror the content of ED with sparkly graphics and sparing use of zingers all while trying to deny some of that sweet sweet traffic money to [[Know_Your_Meme|KYM]]. But WP80 sucked, was used only by three people, and nobody gave a shit. KYM still made a ton of cash.
Before the Mexican–American War, when this area was ceded to the United States, the main trade route through this part of Mexico was the Old Spanish Trail. This trail extended from Santa Fe, New Mexico to Los Angeles. The trail had multiple routes; however, the main route proceeded north towards Moab, Utah, one of the few places where the Colorado River can be crossed without having to traverse steep cliffs. The modern US 491 roughly correlates with the main route of the Old Spanish Trail between Cortez, Colorado and its northern terminus.[17]


Before 1926, all of modern US 491 existed as state routes. In New Mexico, US 666 absorbed a portion of State Road 32 (NM 32) from Gallup to Shiprock, and completely replaced NM 121 from Shiprock to the Colorado state line.[18] The portion in Colorado was numbered State Highway 108 (SH 108) from the New Mexico state line to Cortez, and SH 10 from Cortez to Utah.[19] At the time, SH 10 traversed the southern portion of Colorado. While most of this route was absorbed by the U.S. Highway System, a portion of it still exists.[20] In Utah, the route was originally numbered State Route 9 (SR 9), which also included what is now US 191 from Monticello to Crescent Junction. Utah has since re-used the SR 9 designation for a different road.[21]
Failing to stop the monetary hæmorrhaging, ED then introduced [[ClickBangPop]]. CBP was an ad network that exclusively dealt in advertising on ED itself and offered more leniency in the types of advertising that would be allowed.


U.S. Route 666
But then... That flopped. Everyone installed [[AdBlock|AdBlockPlus]] because they were sick of lag, pop-ups, pop-unders, re-directs, and seeing [[Hentai|Princess Peach's tits]] or women with [[dildo|flashlights]] in their anuses on the sidebar.


Early warning signs of DeHippo preparing to turn that which was [[awesome]] into a SFW shithole included the modification of ED's famous, world-class [[Offended]] page to change it from the epic torrent of shock and gore that it was, into a sign reading [[Lies|"no human race is inferior, no belief or creed is superior"]], or some such shit. According to Sherrod's [[sockpuppets]], this [[LOL WUT|out of place, politically correct equality message was more offensive than several hundred images of mutilated cocks, rotting vaginas, and exploded people]]. [[Uncyclopedia|Does this sort of "humor" and "irony" sound like a certain other wiki we happen to know?]] That's right, towards the end, Sherrod decided that [[Unfunny|"ironic"]] humor was in and actual lulz meant nothing. Then she decided to fuck it altogether, and made a site where the [[retards|people of the internet who weren't interested in seeing shock images]] could look up information about memes from across the internet, [[Know Your Meme|because obviously, noone has ever done that before]]. 


Old and new route number at the intersection with US 191 in Monticello
Finally, in a last ditch effort to save ED, an idea was born: save the idea of a snarky Internet clubhouse and throw out the excessive content. Understandably, [[DELETE FUCKING EVERYTHING|trashing the work done by countless, countless anons]] sparked a rage not matched even by over 9,000 to the power of 9,000 bees... And now... Here we are backing up the old wiki, because a gem like this just can't disappear.
The route was upgraded to a U.S. Highway in 1926, as U.S. Route 666. This number was appropriate, per the numbering guidelines for U.S. Highways, as the sixth spur along the highway's parent, U.S. Route 66, branching off at Gallup, New Mexico. The number was assigned by the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHO), a coordinating body that created the U.S. Highway System.[1] At that time, the northern terminus of the route was in Cortez, at an intersection with then US 450 (modern US 160).[22]


Over time the route became known as the "Devil's Highway", a reference to the Number of the Beast.[23] This nickname and association made some visitors uncomfortable,[24] as well as making the signs targets for theft.[25] Because of the highway's number, accidents and other phenomena became repeated as legend. These legends convinced some people the highway was cursed.[26] One unnamed highway patrol officer was quoted in USA Today as stating a drunk-driving suspect told him, "Triple 6 is evil. Everyone dies on that highway."[1] Skeptics point out that the highway has a lower than average fatality rate in Utah and Colorado,[27] only the New Mexico portion is statistically a dangerous highway.[26] Skeptics further state the high fatality rate in New Mexico can be explained by an inadequate design for the traffic loads at the time. Several people suggested the highway improvements, started at the same time as the renumbering, have done more to reduce fatalities than the renumbering itself.[26]


The curse of US 666 is briefly discussed in Jonathan D. Rosenblum's book, Copper Crucible, which investigates the Arizona Copper Mine Strike of 1983. This strike occurred along the highway near Morenci, Arizona.[28] The highway was used as a plot element in films and television, including Route 666, Natural Born Killers,[1] and Repo Man, as well as a two-part episode of the series Married With Children, titled "Route 666".[29] These pieces are not accurate in portraying the route; for example, one depicts the route in Nevada.[29]

Extensions into Arizona and Utah
Given OI's purpose being nothing more than profit, it is an obvious example on how some shit on the efforts of many for the own moneys and the anti-lulz of the internets.


By 1942, the southern terminus of the route was extended to Douglas, Arizona, at the Mexican border.[4] It ran concurrent with US 66 for 30 miles (48.3 km) before the turn south.[1] The Arizona portion of the highway is known as the Coronado Trail Scenic Byway, as it approximated the path of the Spanish explorer, Francisco Vásquez de Coronado.[30] This portion is noted for mountainous terrain, with hairpin turns and steep grades, that reaches an altitude of over 9,000 feet (2,700 m). The curves force a speed limit of 10 miles per hour (16 km/h) in spots.[1]
Yet those anons who still stand for the justice of the internets had made ED the very phoenix, so that was is then reborn from its ashes. Regardless of how much was lost (which was mostly nothing of value), there is a lot of stuff to be brought back and infinitely more OC to add up.


''See the "How can I help" section below for details.''


US 491 was originally US 666.
== The great struggle for at least 10 minutes at April 27, 2011 ==
In 1970, several U.S. Highways in the Four Corners region were re-aligned. As part of this change, US 160 was rerouted west of Cortez to serve the Four Corners Monument and enter Arizona instead of Utah. US 666 was extended up part of the old route of US 160 to Monticello, Utah, at an intersection with then US 163 (now US 191).[31]


In 1985, the Utah Department of Transportation petitioned to extend US 666 northwest to Richfield, but the proposal was rejected. The proposed extension followed SR 95, SR 24, and SR 119. A concurrency with US 191 would have been routed through Blanding and Monticello to connect to the rest of the route. One of the reasons cited for rejecting the proposal was that portions of SR 24 were not built to standards desired for additions to the U.S. Highway System.[32]
On April 27, 2011 Encyclopedia Dramatica was killed for at least 10 minutes. Anons felt an indescribable amount of rage. But finally, the horrific manwhale Dehippo was brought to an end.

Shiprock, a sacred mountain to the Navajo people, is accessed via US 491
==What Happened Since Then==
In 1985, the US 66 designation was eliminated, leaving US 666 (and others) as orphans. This fact would be used as a supporting factor in later petitions to renumber the highway. In 1992, the part in Arizona was renumbered as an extension of US 191. This truncated US 666 again at Gallup, New Mexico, now at I-40.[4]
* New owner Zeiger started the site back up and by 2013 it was running again
* Zeiger ran out of drug money and started putting ads up everywhere, which sucked ass
* Site went down in 2019 because someone forgot to back it up
* After bouncing around, the site came back and by 2021 things were stable
* In 2024 someone AGAIN forgot to back shit up
* Now in 2025, new owners CLU and fleacollerindustry are making sure shit stays up and paid for. We'll see how long THIS lasts before they forget to back up the servers


The route in the other three states became U.S. Route 491 in 2003, mainly through efforts of New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. He requested the change due to the "infamy brought by the inopportune naming of the road".[1] While campaigning for governor, Richardson promised to renumber the highway as part of a larger plan to improve the highway and build relations between New Mexico and the Navajo Nation.[23] Although traditional Navajo culture does not share the belief of 666 being an evil number, some Navajos had attempted for years to change the number as a way to raise awareness about the dangerous highway.[26] The highway had largely been ignored, with few improvements made since it was first paved.[23] By 1997, US 666 was named one of the 20 most dangerous highways in the United States.[26] Some Navajo leaders were concerned that efforts to reduce poverty on Navajo lands, via promoting tourism and outside investment, were being hampered by the Christian aversion to the number.[1]

In New Mexico's motion to renumber the highway, they selected U.S. Route 393. Since the route came nowhere near US 93, AASHTO instead suggested US 491, noting it as a branch of US 191 at Monticello, Utah. Although the next three-digit child of US 91 would have been U.S. Route 291, both the 291 and 391 designations were already in use as state route numbers in at least one of the affected states.[1] At the news that the motion had passed, a New Mexico spokesperson stated, "The devil's out of here, and we say goodbye and good riddance."[26] Referring to the motion passing with a different number from what New Mexico requested, another spokesperson responded, "As long as it's not 666 and it's nothing satanic, that's OK."[1] US 666 officially ceased to exist on May 31, 2003, although temporary "New 491 – Old 666" signs were posted after the change to aid travelers using old maps.[26]

Although sign theft has always been a problem along this highway, thefts reached epidemic proportions when the pending number change was announced. Within days of the announcement, virtually every US 666 sign had been stolen, some for sale on eBay.[33] Officials in Utah reported that five entire sign assemblies had been cut down with a chainsaw and stolen, while New Mexico officials reported that even signs welded to metal posts, as a theft deterrent, had been stolen. Officials speculated from one scene that someone had intentionally crashed a car into the sign post to break the welds.[25]

The dedication of the "new" highway was postponed until July 30, 2003, to coincide with the start of construction projects to improve safety on the highway.[23] At the dedication George Blue Horse, a Navajo medicine man, performed a ceremony to remove the curse from the highway. In the Navajo language he stated, "The road itself never ends. It goes on generation to generation. The new number is a good one. The new road will be a medicine."[26]
== Gallery ==


Newspapers and television stations interviewed people along the route about their opinions on the changing of the highway's number. Even some people who believed in the 666 curse disagreed with the change. One went on record as stating highway officials, "are messing with the wrong guy. They're making the devil mad. They should have left the 666 alone." Others were more sarcastic. One Monticello resident stated, "We'll really miss all the potheads stopping and taking pictures of the Route 666 sign." Most residents took pride in living along the Devil's Highway and opposed the change. Some commented that no matter the number they would still call the road the Devil's Highway.[23]

Since the renumbering in 2003, portions of US 491 in New Mexico have been upgraded to a four-lane divided highway, with grade separations at the busiest interchanges. The New Mexico Department of Transportation has noted that, as sections are upgraded, fatality rates improve on the four-lane portions, but remain high on the two-lane portions. As construction has proceeded, the most dangerous portions of the highway have moved to points where the four-lane portion ends, and traffic merges to two lanes. This has caused the department to coordinate the phases of the upgrades to minimize the number of two-lane/four-lane transitions.[3] Construction on the final phase was originally scheduled to begin January 2008,[10] however the state has applied for American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds to finish the project and completion has been rescheduled for early 2012.[34]

Encyclopædia Dramatica (edramatica.com; previously at encyclopediadramatica.com, .ch, .es, .rs, .se, .wiki, .online, .top, .wtf, .gay, and .win.) is a central catalog for organized reference pages about drama, memes, e-pals and other interesting happenings on the Internets. It is the tour guide for your journey across the Internets. ED is also the final arbiter of truth and human destiny, and can be used to settle any dispute, anywhere, evar and a wiki-encyclopedia that enjoys deep web benefits.

Encyclopedia Dramatica was killed for at least 100 minutes in April of 2011. Now it's all better because the enemies of the lulz were stopped and the horrific manwhale Girlvinyl was destroyed.

Origins

ED's version of Wikipe-tan is rich and beautiful like Mediacrat, and classy like ED's content.
Not a dickgirl or supreme slut as suggested, but this works also.
 
 
That isn't Wikipedia, but the Encyclopedia Dramatica. It's that infamous site that's been made by a**holes who got kicked out of editing at Wikipedia so they made their own Wiki where standards of good taste, common decency, and the avoidance of NSFW pictures do not exist. They made pages for about a gazillion people whom they deem unfit to live, including myself.
 

 

David Gonterman, on Encyclopedia Dramatica[1]

Encyclopædia Dramatica was created on December 9th, 2004, while girlvinyl was impatiently awaiting the delivery of her ibook. ghettofinger and girlvinyl were outraged and amused by the ill-treatment of internet celebrity jameth by the moderators and idiots at Wikipedia, and girlvinyl decided it was time to present an alternative to the fascist hold they had over information on the internets.

   
 
Guess it doesn't matter at this point because everyone seems to have made up their minds. Oh well. I'll just post this thing elsewhere. -Jameth 02:36, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 

 
 

Jameth, December 8, 2004

The site's title was coined by 33mhz on jameth's journal. On the inaugural install and first operational night of ED, scarlet and jeremyjx were added as moderators, with others following. Once the site was posted on LNN, its audience and content grew exponentially.

Like all websites with user-generated content, ED quickly degenerated into a forum for unfunny revenge attempts by butthurt individuals of every description -- bigots, banned website users, trolling victims, failed trolls, and virgins rejected by hot girls. 99.9% of all ED articles are tl;dr ravings about things the person dislikes, or unknown and uninteresting LiveJournal or deviantART users who made someone mad by existing. The other .1% are archives of dead YouTube embeds. But nevertheless, it is still filled to the brim with lulz of every sort.

All users are welcomed to create and modify content to more accurately reflect the internets and help archive the never ending supply of e-drama. Please continue to add articles so that the encyclopedia will provide answers to questions like "What the hell is mediacrat?" and "Where are the lulz?"

Not to be confused with Dramapedia, silly pedophiles.

What's with the æ?

A very good character

The proper spelling of Encyclopædia Dramatica includes the little æ; however, those characters are not allowed to be registered in domain names, so we used the mundane spelling. Feel free to use alt+145, alt+0230, or alt+z (option+' on OS X) if you'd like to experience it. As æ is confusing and mysterious like ED itself, it became the mascot for the site. æ is also a normal character in the Danish, French, Icelandic and Norwegian alphabets.

Is Encyclopedia Dramatica racist?

Short Answer: PROBABLY?

While there is a lot of material on ED that many find upsetting, the admins and users come from a variety of backgrounds. Some people understand satire and lulz, even when the minority group they are a part of is targeted, some know it was not a serious attack on them, and counter lulz to lulz the lulz are always an option.

The wiki takes a no-holds barred, nothing is sacred approach to everyone and everything, we create highly critical articles about everything internet related, so as to make readers lol at its cruel, unforgiving and occasionally revealing qualities. Some EDiots don't purposefully set out to offend people, but the admins intend to make you die in a high school bathroom in New Mexico. Some EDiots portray the ridiculousness of many ignorant views that infect the world in a lulzy manner, because when you laugh at the more harsher aspects of life, the world becomes a better place. Of course, according to Meepsheep's Law where irony is confused with sincerity, other fucktards take it seriously because they are soulless gingers and go on to actually murder two random people at a high school after taking gun selfies in front of their bunk-bed in New Mexico and writing poems about how females are "ten thousand kilometers away from my pee pee."

If you are part of a minority group and are offended by ED take note from PCBIZNUSS in the below video and try to understand we stand for free speech however threatened you may feel by that. After all, without free speech, no minority group would have ever received rights to begin with.

Even black people love ED!



Life, Death and Rebirth (The "Last Thursday" of ED)

ED: A History of The Conflict.
Though this tragedy happened, ohInternet recently died, nobody cared, and the corpse was never found ... and nothing of value was lost
Paul Walker's driver had no shame about his love for Encyclopedia Dramatica. Rest in peace, you won't be forgotten.

What most everyone is unaware of is that Encyclopedia Dramatica, in its original form, cost something akin to an arm and a leg to run. Most people probably forgot the constant begging for donations and complete site shutdowns that used to plague the site, but indeed it was bleeding dollars from every available orifice.

In an attempt to profit off the interest of NORPs without scaring them off with pictures of severed dicks and esoteric Internet nerd humor, WP80 was born. Whatport80 served as the work-safe alternative wiki to ED, meant to mirror the content of ED with sparkly graphics and sparing use of zingers all while trying to deny some of that sweet sweet traffic money to KYM. But WP80 sucked, was used only by three people, and nobody gave a shit. KYM still made a ton of cash.

Failing to stop the monetary hæmorrhaging, ED then introduced ClickBangPop. CBP was an ad network that exclusively dealt in advertising on ED itself and offered more leniency in the types of advertising that would be allowed.

But then... That flopped. Everyone installed AdBlockPlus because they were sick of lag, pop-ups, pop-unders, re-directs, and seeing Princess Peach's tits or women with flashlights in their anuses on the sidebar.

Early warning signs of DeHippo preparing to turn that which was awesome into a SFW shithole included the modification of ED's famous, world-class Offended page to change it from the epic torrent of shock and gore that it was, into a sign reading "no human race is inferior, no belief or creed is superior", or some such shit. According to Sherrod's sockpuppets, this out of place, politically correct equality message was more offensive than several hundred images of mutilated cocks, rotting vaginas, and exploded people. Does this sort of "humor" and "irony" sound like a certain other wiki we happen to know? That's right, towards the end, Sherrod decided that "ironic" humor was in and actual lulz meant nothing. Then she decided to fuck it altogether, and made a site where the people of the internet who weren't interested in seeing shock images could look up information about memes from across the internet, because obviously, noone has ever done that before.

Finally, in a last ditch effort to save ED, an idea was born: save the idea of a snarky Internet clubhouse and throw out the excessive content. Understandably, trashing the work done by countless, countless anons sparked a rage not matched even by over 9,000 to the power of 9,000 bees... And now... Here we are backing up the old wiki, because a gem like this just can't disappear.


   
 

[13:55] <DX27> what tool was used to automatically add the cached shit back onto the wiki?
[13:56] <Kashiwaba_Tomoe> a computer

 


 
 

IRC

Given OI's purpose being nothing more than profit, it is an obvious example on how some shit on the efforts of many for the own moneys and the anti-lulz of the internets.

Yet those anons who still stand for the justice of the internets had made ED the very phoenix, so that was is then reborn from its ashes. Regardless of how much was lost (which was mostly nothing of value), there is a lot of stuff to be brought back and infinitely more OC to add up.

See the "How can I help" section below for details.

The great struggle for at least 10 minutes at April 27, 2011

On April 27, 2011 Encyclopedia Dramatica was killed for at least 10 minutes. Anons felt an indescribable amount of rage. But finally, the horrific manwhale Dehippo was brought to an end.

The great struggle for at least 10 minutes at April 27, 2011.
Amount of rage which was had.
Anon describes pain from ED being for at least 10 minutes down.
   
 

I'm so in rage now, I could rip the Dehippowhale with my bare hands in two pieces!

- Anon
 


 
 

   
 

If it is an attack from the outside: whoever it was will suffer over 9000 times the pain of the amount of rage I right now feel inside me. I already curse this person with the worst case of cluster headache, and no possibility to treat it in any way.

- Anon
 


 
 

   
 

We wait for info. If it was faggots from OhIntershit then lets unleash <insert hell, terror, furries... etc. here>, for great justice!.

How the problem was dealt with.



What Happened Since Then

  • New owner Zeiger started the site back up and by 2013 it was running again
  • Zeiger ran out of drug money and started putting ads up everywhere, which sucked ass
  • Site went down in 2019 because someone forgot to back it up
  • After bouncing around, the site came back and by 2021 things were stable
  • In 2024 someone AGAIN forgot to back shit up
  • Now in 2025, new owners CLU and fleacollerindustry are making sure shit stays up and paid for. We'll see how long THIS lasts before they forget to back up the servers

How can I help?

You helping ED.
Our state of the art servers require alot of expensive maintenance.
  • If you can't be bothered to do any of the above, at least pray to the ghost of OldDirtyBtard and thank him for his beyond-the-grave help in rescuing ED from the clutches of the prior fascist regime(s).
