I am a long-time fan of the series. Clive Barker is one of my favorite authors, and a major inspiration for my own writing. I am an aspiring author myself, currently seeking a Creative Writing degree.
I am currently searching for dedicated fans of the series to help me out with The Abarat Wiki, hosted by Wikia. I took it on as a school project and haven't worked on it much since the semester ended, but I am still interested in making a great site for fans. I also have an Abarat blog that chronicled the progress I made improving the Wiki. Its called WhereIsWhen, and is hosted by WordPress. I am the Admin and Bureaucrat of that Wiki, so if you're interested in helping out PM me and we'll discuss membership and contributions. I'm seeking those who know a lot about javascript/source code. I am not very great at it.
I am a big fan of the fantasy genre, and it is the type of stories I like to write. Currently I'm working on a story with a large cast of characters and world building. Abarat itself has been a major inspiration and motivation for my writing (though I do not associate myself with fan fiction in any incarnation out of respect to the author).

Hey, welcome to the forum! Feel free to post on some old threads if you have something to say, we need more activity.
I've worked on other wikis and I'd really like to help out on your Abarat one, but as I'm sure aware making full articles for a wiki is a time-consuming thing, and any help I would give you might not be that huge - However I like the idea of an Abarat wiki and I'd love to support yours, so send me whatever information you'd like to send me, lol. I assure you that when I add information to an article it's grammatically correct, spelled well, and sounds like something you would read on a huge and popular wiki (all of these things can be real problems on smaller wikis).

Are you familiar with source code/HTML? I want to format the wiki in a much better way, but source code gives me trouble

I'm aware of the basics since I started editing wikis before Wikia gave the option to not use it, but how much I can help you depends on what you want to do. If it's something another wiki does I find that a good way to easily use HTML is to just copy and paste it from another wiki and change whatever you need to change.
