Wookieepedia, the all-Star Wars online encyclopedia, just celebrated its second birthday. And it's a pretty damn big 2-year-old: with 45,000 articles, it's the biggest encyclopedia on its host, Wikia. As a point of comparison, though, Wikipedia has over 1.5 million articles. So Star Wars can't compete with the whole of human knowledge quite yet.

For its birthday, the Wookieepedians also announced the beginning of their regular Wookieecast, which will hopefully be much better than the Star Wars Christmas Special of yore.

Like Wikipedia, Wookieepedia suffers from a terrible problem when it comes to choosing "articles of the day." They pick topics that hardly seem flattering to their own site. Today's featured article begins:

General, Representative and later Senator Jar Jar Binks was the first Gungan to represent his people in the Galactic Senate, first serving as a Junior Representative along with Senator Padmé Amidala, and then, after her death, serving as full Senator himself.

So informative!
