I mean, staring our own Wiki is cool and all, but in reality, this is still just an elaborate self insert fan fiction. I'm not saying that there's any thing wrong with that, just that I feel like we're getting ahead of ourselves. This isn't a spin-off(we have on help from RT) and it's not "expanded universe"(Monty has given no blessing). In all honesty, I feel like this belongs on the Fanon wiki sometimes.

That being said, I'm not trying to degrad what we're doing here. It's still a lot classier than most fan fiction(although that's not a high bar to reach) and Red vs. Blue is fan fiction by this definition.

If we're moving through with this, then I guess there's no point in stopping, but I think we all need to keep in mind, that this is not anything that special, and it appears our fan base consists of only ourselves, and possibly a few other contributors. I'm sorry if I'm coming off as a downer(it's still kinda early), but I'm just afraid that we're going to find ourselves overestimating what we do. I don't want to be that guy, but somebody's got to do it. You have a few points (which I must admit does embarress me on how we missed though) but we are different from other fan fics, this is more than just the story, this is a visual thing, it includes art for the reader to see all the time, no text to imagine. It has substance, and, more importantly, it breathes with the life of many fans already. This is a great endevour we embark upon, and we can hope and pray it is a success.

Though we are simply a fan fiction, I think the organizational benefits of creating a wiki would be rather useful rather than fitting everything into a few blog posts or a train of ideas with a forum thread.
