gizaSo, I was tooling around on WikiFur last night, and with it being my birthday, I figured that my entry on WikiFur should list my birthyear in a category similar to what WikiPedia does. Since there was no existing category system on WikiFur for birth years and death years, I pinged ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
greenreaper in IM and we kicked around some ideas. Then I searched for the string "born" and "died" over all of WikiFur and started creating categories en masse.
The end result:
- WikiFur Births by year
- WikiFur Deaths by year
This is just a start, though. We're hoping that from here on, things listed on WikiFur can start having dates associated with them. Perhaps at some point in the future we'll be able to turn it into a wiki-based timeline of the furry fandom. Wouldn't that be cool!
Oh, and speaking of my birthday,furahi made a version of my icon (seen with this post) that has me with gray hair. :-) Thanks for the hookup, dude!
