This is the homepage of the Onionpedia. I have this on Trisha Paytas because she is a celebrity with very strong lolcow traits with lots of material so I think she would be a good candidate. But if you have others you would like to work on, I am open to feedback. The theme used in MyWiki so this has a very wiki-like "feel" to it even though it is WordPress. Yes, more than one person can edit it.

This is a photoshop of the front page of the Onionpedia that I put together. I chose Trisha Paytas because she is an internet celebrity with very pronounced lolcow traits and lots of material to work with. However, I am open to suggestions on who you would like to do our "CWCKI" on. I used a MyWiki theme to this so even though this is WordPress it has a strong wiki-like feel to it. WordPress is very versatile so even if you wanted multiple people of interest on this it can be modified.

Yes multiple people can edit this though I would need to work out the details.

However, if you wanted something in a wiki format, we have four of them we can choose from (Mediawiki, Dokuwiki, PMWiki, and WikkaWiki).

In terms of people of interest there are four broad categories that Onionfarms covers: Lolcows, Celebrities (both regular celebrities and internet celebrities), Political Cows (Heads of State, government people), and General Public Figures who don't fit in any of the other categories. In terms of relative percentages, Celebrities, Political Cows and General Public Figures should have a combined total about 80% with lolcows totaling about 20%.

Talk about lolcows all you want but let's balance it out so it does not overwhelm the forum. The reason I am doing this is because I want to monetize the board in the near future without us getting blacklisted. Josh tried to open another payment stream for Kiwifarms and in less than a day they disabled it. This is a significant part of the reason why I emphasize countries and news.
 
If you have noticed, I have reorganized the thread prefixes to be more objective. Our prefix system labeling someone should be as unbiased as possible but accurate and easy to understand. I will come up with precise definitions of these thread prefixes. I will also come up with a much more precise definition of what a lolcow is. Which by the way you have noticed I have replaced the term lolcow with cowsphere. Cowsphere is somewhat broader than lolcow in its meaning. I will also explain this as well. This is long overdue since we cover a much broader scope of people than lolcow.org or kiwifarms.
 
I have introduced a new forum among others (Controversial Bloggers). And for the first thread, I am introducing the famous Witchfinder General (Samuel Collingwood Smith) as a blogger of interest.

His public blogs on the Witchfinder General are fair game for debate and discussion. His personal and private life is off limits. This is a blogger thread not a lolcow thread. His thread stays in the blogger forum. This is also a partial remedy against the fail trolls (i.e. Sigsegv) on lolcow.org trying to throw me under the bus. We are a splinter forum of the Kiwifarms but completely independent with a greater focus on political affairs so let's exercise some care.
