History
Super-wiki was initially established in June 2006 as "Super-canon", a resource to hold as much canonical material for Supernatural as possible. In August 2006 it was converted into a wiki format in order to both better organise the information and broaden its scope from simply the text to the fandom as well.
Ideology
The goal of Super-wiki is to provide an extensive information resource and compendium of fan knowledge, including not only the documentation of canonical information but the documentation of the Supernatural fandom.
Reflecting this ideal, the wiki format of Super-wiki means that anyone who signs up to this site has the ability to add to and create pages of information.
In order for Super-wiki to function reliably and independently (of moderator control) this particular free-for-all dynamic needs to be tempered with an attitude that recognises the validity of each fan's opinions, beliefs and interpretations..
