Eric: An admittedly personal note.
Gossamer Commons has been added to the new comics wiki. No, I didn't add it.
For the record, it had been cut from Wikipedia as non-notable. I supported that decision. I voted for its deletion.
But, I have to admit... it's very very nice to see the entry in the new encyclopedia.

Well, this does not come as a surprise, seeing as you're a definite core person for this project.
Anyway, congratulations!

I was "core" in suggesting it in the first place. It's very much got a life of its own, and there are folks out there who've put a lot more into it than I have.
This right here? This is a project without an iconoclast in the middle. And that's darn nice.

Not notable. hrmph. That's.. I hate that phrase, btw. It's like saying to someone "hey, you know that work you did? it's insignificant, and thus, of no value." bleh.

Just added a section on Trudy, hope it's okay.

It's fantastic. Thanks, Sean.

No problem! I wrote it from memory and your cast page rather than reading the archives, so I was hoping I didn't mess anything up due to laziness.
Is Mercy important enough for me to add one for her? I assume she'll be back...

Seems to me that as many charecters as possible should be added and if they turn out to be minor they can be put into a minor charecters section.

I figured you wouldn't create the article, so I quickly threw something together to encourage other people to contribute to it. Gossamer Commons is a good example of a webcomic that can be delved into really in-depth at ComixpediaWiki, and be useful and of interest to readers.

Eric, I hope you don't mind that I've added an entry for Unfettered by Talent: http://www.comixpedia.org/index.php?title=Unfettered_by_Talent

I find it amusing that when I first clicked on the Comixpedia Wiki's "Random Page" link it came up with the "Eric Burns" entry. (I smell conspiracy! ;)

Shit, Eric. That's quite the novel written on your wiki bio page there.

William -- that's what was on my Wikipedia entry. I didn't move it over -- someone else did.

(Someone, I'd add, who apparently read my old journal as well as my new one.)
