The site, in 2008
A wiki where fans record the history of fandoms and fan works: zines, archives, conventions, terms and communities.
The Organization for Transformative Works, which also runs the Archive of Our Own, opened it in beta in 2008 and fully in December 2010. It had about 45,000 articles by 2018 and passed a million edits in January 2021.
In 2008: Opened in beta this year as one of the OTW's projects to preserve fan history.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2008 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2008, then plays a short scene. Want Fanlore in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
