LPW Wiki:About


 * Main article: Lords of Pain Wrestling

The LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia (or LPW Wiki for short) is Lords of Pain Wrestling's first Wiki, and an attempt to document the past, present and future of the e-LPW community in all aspects.

The LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia was founded on February 24, 2009 by (User:Spriggins), the head writer of the Insanity brand and handler of the Krimson Mask and Little Red Riding Hood characters.

History of LPW Wiki
The LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia was founded, as mentioned above, on February 24, 2009 by Dave Boice. It's creation came about due to the lack of organization and broad scope of the LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia. All contributions of LPW was transferred to the LPW Wiki and improved.

Mission statement
The goal and mission of the LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia is to, over time, become a full picture of the LPW universe. Hopefully, with the help of the handlers themselves, the [e-wrestler]]s of today can be fully covered, along with the vast history the 'hobby' has become for many participants. The ability for everybody to contribute will, hopefully, result in factually correct, solid information never before available to the community at the click of a mouse.

Some of the things which the LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia hopes to cover are:


 * Past and present wrestlers, managers, tag teams, staff members and other characters.
 * The handlers behind the characters (which have their own area of the Wiki).
 * Anything else which can be written about - title belts, major events, tournaments.

The LPW Wiki will not succeed without your contributions, and your help. To be a success and a clinical part of e-wrestling, as many contributors as possible need to write about themselves and even others to make this the most complete LPW eWrestling Encyclopedia yet.

Wikia owns the hosting, but has no extra copyright protection over the material. This is your encyclopedia - Everyone who contributes has ultimately got a share of it.


 * Q: I'm not sure how to  [Insert problem] .
 * A: There is a help guide at Help:Contents, available at all times from the main menu (click "Help"). If you can't find what you're looking for, try contacting us (see here).


 * Q: Can I affiliate with this site?
 * A: We are happy to affiliate with sites, and welcome you to show your support by linking to us, but due to technical limitations 88-by-31 links cannot be created. We are not, however, willing to show a clear bias to one federation on the Wiki.


 * Q: How notable does my wrestler/federation have to be to be included?
 * A: As long as you aren't handling a real wrestler/aren't a real wrestler federation, you can be included here. There are no limits on importance.


 * Q: What's in it for me?
 * A: The eWE won't be able to pay or reward you for your contributions. However, the idea that this will be a resource in five years time to see information that is otherwise hard to obtain should be enough for any good editor to be happy to contribute. Without eWE, many handlers and federations will be forgotten, as over time the face of e-wrestling changes and leaves behind its past.
