Welcome to the SWIL Wiki! SWIL is the Swarthmore Science Fiction and Fantasy club, a Wiki is a user-editable website, and this, therefore, is where we define and delimit our deviant designs for such debauchery as we deem decent. In other words: here you can read about SWIL's illustrious history, past and future events that we run, and other things that we think are amusing.

Furthermore, we want you to get involved. Yes, you. All the content on this site was written by SWILlies past or present, most of it collaboratively, and there's still a lot to do. Take a look at the Community Portal page to learn how to set up an account and start contributing. At the moment, this Wiki contains 409 unique articles - with a little help, we can do better!

And of course, if you find yourself wondering exactly who you're dealing with, well - we're trying to figure that out, too. So lend us a hand with our Wiki - we are, after all, infinitely interpretable.

Thank you,

--The Wiki Administrators
