Hi everyone.

Thanks to Hidetchi's Twitter, I was reminded about this fantastic igo
wiki, Sensei's Library. Every time I look at SL, I think about how
nice it would be to have a wiki like it for shogi, that way it would
be so much easier to keep all sorts of shogi information in one place.
And then I remembered why The 81-Square Universe exists - because my
co-founder and I wanted something that didn't exist yet.

So applying this to the concept of a shogi wiki, I decided to go ahead
and start one.

Shogi Wiki:
http://wiki.81squareuniverse.com

I didn't want to call it "The 81-Square Universe Shogi Wiki" since
that's such a long name, so I was originally going to call it
Wikishogi, but Yamajunn got to that name first. So, to keep it short,
I went with "Shogi Wiki," which is straightforward and gets to the
point.

With the shogi community's help, I think we can get this wiki to the
same heights as Sensei's Library. If everyone helps making even one
article, or editing errors they see in articles, then it will become a
huge success, and a vital resource to English-speaking shogi players.
And then maybe the internet shogi world will come together as one
community. :)

I've started it by making the following articles:

* Main Page
* Shogi
* Shogi Wiki
* The 81-Square Universe
* Hidetchi's Shogi Videos
* Yagura Castle

If you can help, I encourage you to do so.

Thanks,

Eric De Las Casas
