This wiki attempts to aggregate the various fan efforts to document the Harmontown podcast.
The initial episode data was sourced from the podcast RSS feed, the Podcast Dynamite website (guest lists, episode minutes, and lost episodes), and the Harmoncity website (auto-transcripts and some episode descriptions).
The remaining episode information and articles come from Harmontown fans.
Interested in chipping in? Any and all contributions are welcome. All you need is a GitHub account.
The episode articles are still missing quite a bit of metadata (see the Progress section above). That is probably the easiest information to add.
Alternatively, feel free to document Episode Minutes, Bits, Characters, Raps, Anecdotes, or anything else people might want to look up.
Check this guide on how to get started.
Two reaons: Money and data ownership.
GitHub is the only platform I could think of that offered free hosting without forcing ads on you. I could have self-hosted a MediaWiki instance, but that costs money.
By using GitHub we get free hosting, a mechanism for collaborating (which is, admittedly, a bit opaque), and all of our data is open to everyone. You can even run your own instance of the wiki if you want to!
Having control of the data also means we can more easily migrate to another wiki technology later.
