The encyclopedia used to be published under [CC0](cc0.md), which is of course amazing, but they seem to just be switching licenses however they like -- maybe to support a bit of a drama anyway -- however even with CC0 much of the content simply by nature comprises of copy pastes, screencaps, anonymous works and fair uses (sometimes perhaps also illegal unfair uses), so in general you can't really treat it as a "tidy" [public domain](public_domain.md), more like a chaotic "we shit on any [copyright](copyright.md)" philosophy, which given the situation (impossibility of achieving true PD) is probably the least evil. As of writing this it also doesn't sport any [shit](shit.md) like [ads](marketing.md) (though there were ads in the past, but they managed to get rid of them) or Turing test bullshit and it also only works on plain HTTP (no HTTPS nonsense, even though there are logins and passwords lol), which is simply amazing and shows a high standard of this magnum opus, but of course everything may change at any time so better not speak too early. ED also has pretty nice forums.

Dramatica has firmly stood towering as the giant among the people's encyclopedias since its establishment on December 9 2004, it can only be compared to such places like [4chan](4chan.md). It was established by a [WOMAN](woman.md) who got piseed at Wikipedia, who was called called Girlvinyl (Sherrod DeGrippo), which would make her one of the few based women wasn't it for her betrayal of the project in 2011 when she caused a **major drama** by trying to milk the project and replaced ED by some shitty normie friendly website (called "Oh Internet") that soon went bankrupt, by which she confirmed she indeed was just a woman unable to control her lust for golds (and even failing at digging it after going all in lol). Fans however kept ED backed up and going under different domains. ED is mainly a work of [oldfags](oldfag.md), a place of classic, old style, porn-rich [meme](meme.md) culture, nowadays in contrast with the lame zoomer shit like soyjaks and whatnot. The articles are visually rich, joyful, with many flashing colors, flying [CSS](css.md) pictures and many catchy quotes and phrases with a lot of exclamation marks!!11!1! The editors call themselves EDiots. The work achieved a legendary status despite facing the hardest forms of censorship, for example being excluded from [Goolag](google.md) search results; Wikipedia also tried to ban and censor the whole article about Dramatica but eventually had to give in because ED actually became very notable and referenced in mainstream media. This couldn't go without inspiring similar projects, so ED has since its inception been competing with other similar encyclopedias, however it might be better to say it's simply been copied and mimicked without anyone so far reaching the high quality. Some competing wikis are for example the Lurkmore wikis (English, Russian and Ukrainian ones), Nigrapedia or the Soyjak wiki -- nevertheless these hardly ever managed to get on the same level. The "competition" usually does have some valuable material but overall generally fails by several points, like for example being quite small, having low effort articles consisting of unfunny spam, forced self serving vulgarity without any artistic vision (Family Guy style), having too many rules, putting on ads (revealing its motives for just grabbing some internet cash), putting on [cuckflare](cloudflare.md) and basically just not valuing the work enough, not keeping the standard that ED seems to be valuing and tryharding too much to dethrone Dramatica. Dramatica simply knows what it wants to do and does it to the fullest, it puts no barriers, no "this is too far" lines, an artist wouldn't put just 50% effort in his painting and he wouldn't stick a sponsor logo on it. ED is about memes and shitposting but that is [art](art.md) like any other -- awareness of this is key for a quality wiki. Dramatica makes fun even of itself, it won't censor its own failures, it writes about the competing wikis (when these, on the other hand, may pretend Dramatica doesn't exist), it simply truly only follows the [lulz](lulz.md), at least that's how it seems.

Dramatica can also be seen as a more extreme (read better) version of Uncyclopedia. Uncyclopedia is like a children humor site while Dramatica is for normal adults.
