Halupedia, the Encyclopedia of Things Made Up On the Spot

I believe Halupedia got its name from the word hallucination. You can jump from any link in the existing articles to another, or do a search, and if it didn't exist before, the algorithm will write something for you to read. The main page has a few suggestions, like The Great Pigeon Census of 1887, The Ministry of Terribly Wrong Maps, or The Society for the Prevention of Unnecessary Tuesdays. They are all nonsense, but they are surprisingly well-written nonsense. 
  
I clicked on the words Inter Municipal Hydrology Commission in an article titled Greater Bellevue, and I had to wait a few seconds while this encyclopedia wrote an article for me. The Commission, located in several fantasy towns including Vernal Drip, has a complete history that is grammatically correct and makes plenty of sense on the surface, but may remind you of Grand Fenwick or a Monty Python sketch. Really, the Commission was de-commissioned after their 700-page report on fog. This can be a lot of fun if you just want to revel in verbiage. You can leave comments, but you can't use your own name. If you get caught in a loop of links, reddit has some suggestions for more AI generated Halupedia articles. -via Nag on the Lake
