Från en annan lista. Nämnas kan att Fancyclopedia är det klassiska fandomuppslagsverket (med viss inriktning på terminologi snarare än att allt inom t ex fandomhistoria) som tidigare utkommit, på stencil, i två upplagor. Det sägs ingenting huruvida Fancy III avser att täcka fandomar utanför USA (man kan misstänka att det kunde bli ett väldigt stort arbete...). F ö har undertecknad redan skrivit en i någon mening svensk motsvarighet, kallad Fandboken (som finns online här och där). --AE


Please forward to fans everywhere

Fancyclopedia 3 is a collective enterprise of all of fandom. Based on he
previous works of Jack Speer and Dick Eney, it is to be written by fans who
want to contribute.

Unlike Wikipedia, Fancyclopedia is to be an edited encyclopedia. Your
editors will impose their own iron whim on content, style and resentation.
Nonetheless, like Wikipedia, fans are free to contribute and edit topics,
suggest authors, and argue with the editors on
matters of content, style or presentation.

Like most encyclopedias, Fancyclopedia will contain articles on people,
events and organizations. It will also have a Fanzines category.

People: Biographies of important fans and their achievements and exploits.

Events: History as well as formal events such as conventions.

Organizations: Fan clubs, including city clubs, apas, online lists, etc.

Fanzines: Influential or focal fanzines or fannish websites.

Articles will be selected on the basis of importance and relevance. Initial articles will include the articles from Fancyclopedia 2, identified as such.

A lot has happened in the 40 years since Fancyclopedia 2. Help us bring
Fancyclopedia up to date. We depend on your contributions; get busy and
write something. Articles will be credited.

Articles should be relevant to science fiction fandom as such. While comix fandom, animé, and the Society for Creative Anachronisms (as examples) arose from science fiction fandom, they are now largely independent. Articles on
other fandoms should note their relationships with science fiction fandom
and provide links to sites concerned with those fandoms.

Please register. Registration requires approval by the editors. If you are not known to the editors, please provide a reference to another fan who can
vouch for you. After vetting, you will be free to contribute as you like,
editing and adding articles.

editors & webminders:
Jim Caughran
