Original content was slowly amassed on the LUUG Wiki in preparation for some time. Thanks to funding for a server from the Student Engineers' Council and member contributions for the domain, the Linux and Unix Users Group put together the necessary infrastructure in the fall of 2010 and spring of 2011 to finally launch gobblerpedia.org. During the fall of 2010, there was talk that the Student Government Association would be launching a wiki. The status of their project is currently unknown.
