What on earth is going on at NaNoWriMo HQ? Here's a high level summary compiled by an anonymous community member.
Main Page
Hi Wrimos past and present,
If you've visited Wikiwrimo anytime in the past ten years, you may notice that this homepage text is new. That's intentional.
We do not associate with the NaNoWriMo organization, their headquarters, or their shenanigans.
What does this mean for the wiki? To be honest, I haven't decided yet. Some of you may have noticed that I stopped updating the regional directory around 2022. Part of this was due to the near-impossibility of gathering regional stats, while another part was due to the changing timeline of onboarding MLs and the removal of retiring MLs' powers, a timeline that I couldn't keep up with. It became harder and harder to determine who was an ML for the previous year and who wasn't. And of course there were no MLs in 2024 because Kilby Blades fired all of them.
While this is a wiki for everything NaNoWriMo, the historical perspective was positive. Unfortunately, it's becoming less and less feasible to continue that perspective when covering the organization.
What I can tell you is that if you are a real human with an account here, you will get more notice than you'll care about if something changes about this site.
To everyone who has contributed, sent me tips on things to include, used a Wikiwrimo link as an explanation for something, told a friend... thank you for everything. You made Wikiwrimo what it was, and by extension, showed the best of what NaNoWriMo once was.
Sad to no longer be a forever Wrimo,
Your Wikiwrimo founder,

P.S. What the heck is going on, anyway? nanoscandal.com has you covered.
