Encyclopædia Dramatica - History
Encyclopædia Dramatica's history began when LiveJournal blogger and LJ Drama co-founder James Lee from Seattle, Washington, started using Wikipedia, an on-line, user-modifiable wiki, and created an article about LiveJournal blogger Grayden Rayne (former legal name Joshua Williams). The article was subsequently deleted, despite LiveJournal users, including members of LJ Drama, lobbying to keep the article.
LiveJournal user and LJ Drama administrator Sherrod DeGrippo heard of the deletion of the LiveJournal-related article, and, as a response, came up with the idea of creating Encyclopædia Dramatica so LiveJournal users could write about their experiences on LiveJournal and other blogging Web sites, as well as various Internet phenomena. DeGrippo stated in a Wikipedia discussion that "[avoiding] vanity pages and personal flame wars on wikipedia is the reason Encyclopedia Dramatica exists".
Since its creation, Encyclopædia Dramatica has grown to over 2000 articles. By September of 2005, Encyclopædia Dramatica had surpassed five million page views.
