'''Encyclopedia Dramatica''', often abbreviated '''ED''' or '''æ''', is a website consisting of a satirical MediaWiki based wiki and a XenForo based discussion forum. It was created by the website's owner Sherrod DeGrippo on December 10, 2004. The wiki is a parody of ''Wikipedia'', containing much more harassment and offensive/vulgar content; however, much of 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>

The wiki contains five infamous [[shock site|shock pages]] including [[Offended]], [[The Pain Series|Kittens, and Puppies]], and [[Reporting Un-Islamic Content]]. Many articles on this wiki contain shock images such as [[Goatse]], [[Blue Waffle]], and [[Lemon Party]] among many others, as well as numerous other gruesome images. Encyclopedia Dramatica is known for having something vulgar/disturbing on every single page.

Encyclopedia Dramatica has moved domains many times during its life. It was originally established in December 2004 at ''encyclopediadramatica.com'', but said the site was later moved to a safe-for-work website called ''OhInternet'', which also later closed.

After that, the site moved domain extensions plenty of times from .rs to .se to .ch, and many others, usually because of the owners being arrested or banned.

For a while, there were two sites for Encyclopedia Dramatica, which were created by Jacob Stellmach<ref>https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_nv/E4292822020-1</ref>(dubbed Ædiot), and were the main domains for a while. However, after Jacob attempted to sell the site off to dark netters, the rest of the ED staff forked the wiki and moved the domain to where it currently officially is, at encyclopediadramatica.online.<ref>https://archive.is/CLT7L</ref>

The .wiki domain, however, was still the more popular domain as Google put that site first and Wikipedia does not list .online. Later on, however, .wiki shut down which signified even more that .online was the true æ.

*'''Seebeen: 2017-2019''' - Took over for Zaiger after he turned out to be a massive junkie. Already had a bad reputation beforehand as an Ellen Pao type figure on the Encyclopedia Dramatica Forums (EDF), 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.

*'''Conrad Rockenhaus: 2019-2020''' - Took over for Seebeen who was formerly known to be completely insane, and was generally hated by the rest of ED.

The site would eventually crash along with the forum.
