Dear English lover,

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a Wikipedia for all things English
(literature, theory, etc.)?

Well now there is, and it's called Englipedia.com.

I created this site the other day, and it's just begging for content. So
please, if you have a moment, go create (or edit) a page about
Shakespeare, The Brothers Karamazov, or any other English-y subject (a
great chance to reuse old course papers!). This will be a really
valuable resource with your contributions.

Keep checking on the site in the coming months for new content, a
prettier layout, editing tutorials (for
now, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_edit is a great resource), and
more.

Thanks for your help getting this site off the ground!
