From XKCD Wiki

This is a list of denizens of #xkcd. Anyone can be added provided they are in #xkcd either frequently or memorably. Don't screw up anyone else's stuff, and if you provide too little actual info your entry may be removed. ^{[citation needed]}

READ THIS

If you add a long answer in a column where you're supposed to put a short piece of text, and it makes that column wide when it used to be narrow, it will make the table too big for browser windows.

Ages should be numbers, gender should be a single character, everything in the 'links' column should be single short words, etc. If they are not, find the person whose entry is widening it most and MOCK THAT PERSON MERCILESSLY. Also, fix it by editing or deleting their entry.

You may also want to add yourself to the Frappr map. The deprecated denizens page can be found here.

If you add yourself to this list, please register your nick first! All images must be uploaded (see "upload file" to the left) to be used on this page (you cannot use an off-site image). Any questions can be directed to #xkcdwiki
