I noticed that it's not a free-edit Wiki. How hard is it to obtain permissions?<br><br>Furthermore, what is the spirit of this thing? From what I've seen there isn't a lot of consensus about the interpretation, so perhaps the sections pertaining to places and characters should focus on objective facts to avoid editorial battles.
<br>However, I would rather like to see an interpretive FAQ of sorts for the story also, perhaps in a separate section for each of the books.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/24/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Dan'l Danehy-Oakes

<br><br>I'm trying to systematically *start* pages. But a lot of what I am<br>doing is *just* a start. This is a wiki, and the whole point is to<br>mobsource content -- I'd really like people to take the stuff I've
