Ported Fancyclopedia to mediawiki and radically changed the design. Abandoned the project in August 2020 over disputes about rudeness, site quality and direction. Much of his design has now been deleted or compromised.
Entering Retro Hugo data as if it were awarded in the year of publication instead of in the year it was actually awarded really seems like putting out deliberate misinformation. One can’t expect all users of this site to understand what the Retro Hugos are about. It makes more sense for the 1945 Retros to be “2020 — 1945 Whatever Retro Hugo” and not as if awarded in 1945, and for links to lead to an explanation of the Retros rather than the regular Hugos. Otherwise, it’s seriously confusing. [[User:Leah Zeldes Smith|Leah Zeldes Smith]] ([[User talk:Leah Zeldes Smith|talk]]) 14:15, 30 July 2020 (PDT)
