"Anti-wikis" like this and Uncyclopedia have always fascinated me, mainly as they stand as a ground for people to just make funny, "memey" wiki pages.

The "Niggers" article was the first one I read and don't think I have ever laughed that hard at the internet. It introduced me to Chris Chan too which led me to Kiwi Farms. And for some reason Jessi Slaughter seems to be a protected hefier around here (even more in Witness Protection than Wallflower and Suitress) so ED was the only real source of info on that one.Exactly, that's how I wound up discovering it. I'm still split whether my first lolcow would be Jessi Slaughter or Chris Chan, but it was the Jessi Slaughter stuff where I discovered it all.
isn't there evidence that this part of the article was admitted to be faked by the guy who wrote it? would like to see the proof added here if possible
I think lots of the Jessi Slaughter stuff is also troll's remorse since she went through a lot, and if I recall her dad hit her? The last thing I knew what happened with her is that she trooned out and became a pooner.The "Niggers" article was the first one I read and don't think I have ever laughed that hard at the internet.

since dank says a gamer word in here, gonna archive itCount Dankula even made a video about Zaiger:
Good thread! I think it's worth pointing out in the OhInternet section that part of why EDiots were so livid about it was because, at the time, they were carefully constructing a SFW version of ED themselves called WhatPort80. Rather than give them a chance to finish it, DeHippo fucked them all over. She's also sitting on a dragon's hoard of every image on pre-2010 ED, which is why so many older articles only have thumbnails and not full images.
Great work so far @The Noise, would it be worth having a section on EDF in this OP as well?
I have added this information to the OP.since dank says a gamer word in here, gonna archive it

I was going to do this big thing about the conclusion I came to about why that bit was made up and then I came across this post from Null:isn't there evidence that this part of the article was admitted to be faked by the guy who wrote it? would like to see the proof added here if possible
So there you go. Someone probably got banned, called Null a pedo out of spite, tried to take it back, and then ED reverted the takeback and locked the page because they think libel is funny.I'll bite.
The quote on the ED page you're referring to was added by a user called NeufNeuf who has edited no other page.

The quote was the 2nd thing added to the page.

He tried to remove it the next day saying he made it up.

Someone reverted the edit and later a sysop locked the page. It has remained there since.

Because it is constantly down. Ever since Zaiger got kicked out, none of the admins have been able to keep the site up for very long. Despite Null literally having a list of deplatforming-resistant service providers publicly available, they continue to insist on webhosts that shut you down if you get one too many angry emails.There's already like 4 ED threads. How many more times is someone gonna post "I didn't even know it was still up"
(I think the gif that's shown in the An Hero infobox is from an actual video of a guy killing himself.)
It was definitely possible to maintain the site but I ultimately think the thing that killed them was not having a Null of their own. There was no "adult in the room" to handle issues with the site when something would break or when a powerful person would find their article and threaten a lawsuit.Great OP! I think this rundown really spells out the reason why the site keeps going down and why the site admins are almost always drug addicts or degenerates: The site's very culture attracts such individuals. You have to be lolcow-tier yourself in order to be even the slightest bit interested in keeping such a site alive.
I will add him if I feel I can find enough good info but his only contributions to ED history seem to be:One question, how does @LikeicareKF fit into all of this? Or was he an EDF admin and not a wiki admin?
How the hell did she manage to fail upward into becoming Director of Threat Intelligence Strategy at MicrosoftIn modern times, DeGrippo thrives in her professional life (a) as Director of Threat Intelligence Strategy at Microsoft,
For all of her faults, DeGrippo seems to actually be quite Good At Computers. I think in the ED wikipedia article it states that some of the earliest articles added to the wiki were about computer hackers that she was following. She is probably the most technically competent admin they ever had.How the hell did she manage to fail upward into becoming Director of Threat Intelligence Strategy at Microsoft
sounds about right>Girlvinyl couldn't handle what she created and attempted to destroy it.
He first put pop-up porn ads on the wiki before attempting to sell it. Might have made some cash in the short term, but they were almost certainly riddled with warez, and combined with Atchison's 15 minutes of terror they scared off a lot of the "target audience".>Zaiger was addicted to heroin and attempted to sell ED out for drug money.
Retard. Singular. Onideus got banned from the ED subreddit, and then Reddit in general. He then shared his cogent, rational viewpoints on the subject by phonebooking Sibin and scaring him off. @SeeBeen, if you're watching this, I wish you well.>Sibin was a pretty cool guy who just didn't want to deal with retards harassing his family., [Not mentioned in the OP]
We think it had something to do with stolen valor.>Conrad got arrested for cyber crimes
Mr. Stellmach would have you believe assnapkins are not, in fact, diapers, but the rest is true>Aediot was a diaper-shitting faggot whose girlfriend left him to fuck Conrad
And the grooming victim in question went on to lead a Discord cult of personality>Umk couldn't just ask adults for footjobs like a normal person, [Not mentioned in the OP]
He still visits from time to time, but is more focused on [REDACTED] nowadays.>kaizen couldn't handle having pizza sent to his house, [Not mentioned in the OP]
Only Kaizen could tell you about this one, and he wouldn't tell me, soz>PAX probably didn't even exist [Not mentioned in the OP]
IIRC the porn and warez ads were what made the most money. That's the only reason he pikced them.He first put pop-up porn ads on the wiki before attempting to sell it.

The arrest states it was computer crimes + four counts of stolen valor.We think it had something to do with stolen valor.
