Documenting since November 11, 2013.
Featured Article
A screamer (also known as a thunderbolt, banger, rocket, belter, or worldie) is an informal term used in association football to describe a spectacular goal, typically characterised by exceptional power, long range, and an element of audacity or technical brilliance that elicits a visceral reaction from spectators, commentators, and players alike. The term is deeply embedded in the lexicon of football culture, particularly in English-speaking football communities, and has been in widespread colloquial use since at least the 1980s. Though the word has no official definition within the Laws of the Game, it is universally understood among fans, pundits, and players to denote a goal of extraordinary quality—one that, as the name suggests, causes those who witness it to scream in astonishment, delight, or despair.
The screamer occupies a unique and revered position in the cultural mythology of football. While tap-ins, penalties, and deflected goals all count equally on the scoresheet, the screamer transcends mere statistical record-keeping. It is the type of goal that gets replayed thousands of times on highlight reels, the type of goal that children attempt to recreate in playgrounds and car parks for years afterwards, and the type of goal that can define an entire career in the collective memory of fans.

If you need help getting started, do not worry. There are plenty of helpful articles and guides available on the Help Portal. You can help by creating new articles, adding information to pages, or fixing stubs and cleanup pages. If you're not sure what to edit, you can click Random page under Navigation on the side of the page and help fix information/grammar on any random page. If you want, you can also refer to the Quick Links section at the top to know where to start.
To add a new page, search for the name of the page you want to make in the search bar; if the page does not already exist, there will be a prompt allowing you to create the page. Give the page the same name as the screamer, for example GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!. You are now ready to write your page!
You can also help Screamer Wiki by saving already existing screamers, shock sites, and videos to the Internet Archive (https://web.archive.org/save). If a screamer or shock site gets deleted, banned, or removed, then it can still be viewed on the Wayback Machine.
If you really want to help, then get familiar with IPFS and archive screamers on IPFS, plus pin them to make sure future generations can watch them!
