MorlochWiki

I plan on sharing my knowledge as best I can in this wiki. If I make a mistake, don't harass me, just correct it! It is a wiki after all. As a hobby I help out in Wikipedia, so I know some basic editing stuff, but nothing complicated. If you have any tips, please post them in my talk page! Also if there is a page you would like to see added let me know.
