==Status==Gobblerpedia has been online since Friday, February 11th, 2011. Please add (or import from an appropriately licensed source) any information you think might be worth sharing. Work is ongoing on templates that will ease the documentation of common classes of articles, such as courses, textbooks, and departments, but the templates can easily be added to existing material so don't wait on them to add material. If you have experience in creating MediaWiki templates, we invite you to assist in this process. Several [[template:infobox|infobox]] templates have been imported from Wikipedia for general use, until more specialized ones can be created.
