It was created by the website's owner Sherrod DeGrippo on December 10, 2004. The wiki is a parody of ''Wikipedia'', containing much more offensive/vulgar content, and harassment campaigns; however, much of the offensive content is done solely for "the [https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/lulz lulz]."<ref>https://www.laweekly.com/news/my-date-with-anonymous-a-rare-interview-with-the-elusive-internet-troublemakers-2158139</ref> | ||

Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was originally established in December 2004 at ''encyclopediadramatica.com'' and was originally meant to document [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]] drama. In 2011, the site moved to a safe-for-work website called ''OhInternet'', which also closed the same year. | Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life.

*'''Seebeen: 2017-2019''' - Took over for Zaiger after he turned out to be a massive junkie. Already had a bad reputation beforehand. As in, he would enforce arbitrary rules. Assured ED that he was an amazing tech wizard; but, when the site eventually crashed, it turned out he never had a single backup, and so he just disappeared. | *'''Seebeen: 2017-2019''' - Took over for Zaiger after he turned out to be a massive junkie.

*'''Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020''' - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED. He Was in charge for a while but disappeared for a while. After he got hit by a car, he later came back for a while, but then disappeared again after he went to jail. The site would eventually crash along with the forum. | *'''Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020''' - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED.

*'''Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Aediot): 2020''' - Restored the site after it crashed. Crashed multiple times after he restored it, and was not able to keep it up for more than a couple of weeks at a time. Got sued and tried to crowdfund lawsuit money. Later tried to sell ED to his dark web friends, and was quickly booked. He also talks to an imaginary 6yr old girl, can't drive, and was grooming 16-year-old boys to be his husband. | *'''Jacob Stellmach (A.K.A Aediot): 2020''' - Restored the site after it crashed.
