Here's an article I wrote for Wikipedia about Peter Is the Wolf. It's part of the Wikiproject Webcomics.
Any input you could give would be great, such as adding pictures and additional information that I don't have (maybe add the bit about mating rituals

), expanding the information, and keeping it updated so that I don't constantly have to stay on top of it.

Oh, my, I have a LOT of editing to do. I'm going to leave up the spoilers for now, but here are the factual errors I'm going to correct:
The plan to have parallel adults-only and general-audience pages was from the inception of the comic. It merely took a while for differences between the two to become apparent.
Although the word "thrall" comes from an old word for slave, Sarah is not Peter's slave- merely a "created" werewolf Peter is responsible for.
Sarah is holding Butch Cramer's throat at the end of their fight- holding it, not biting down. Further, it's not secondary infection of lycanthropy that kills in this situation; wounds caused by werewolf fangs or claws don't heal rapidly in the same fashion most other wounds do.
Gus doesn't "come to blows" with anyone; no punches are thrown, bites inflicted, etc.
Sarah wasn't enraged at Con, she was terrified.
Butch Cramer has not given up on Peter.
Most of the pack is not aware of the existence of the capture squads; for whatever reason, they only appear to bedevil Peter.
Thanks for the entry, though; I didn't post it directly to Wikipedia myself because I felt that, if it were important enough for it to be on Wikipedia, someone else would start a post. Now that someone has, I can fix the factual errors.

I'm going to have to sit down and write up Gus Cramer tonight for the WikiWLP, it appears.
Uberman5000, you need to be more careful about jumping to conclusions. Nancy Vulthar was never married to Gus Cramer.

I guess information is more valuable than I make it out to be.

I really need to learn all the facts before I commit to them. I guess Cramer didn't seem like that much of a kook from what I had seen and read up to then.

Well, if WikiPedia leaves it up. They're notorious for deleting stuff like this, despite the number of fans. The only ones I've seen are the "Mainstream Webcomics" (which is an oxymoron if you ask me) such as Sinfest, Penny-Arcade, CTRL+ALT+DEL, MegaTokyo... basically anything under KeenSPOT, Blank Label or any "accepted" group.
Wikipedia's bias towards webcomics has seemed to have tapered off over several years, though. I remember when I tried to put up a Sinfest wiki entry in 2002-3ish, they deleted it within a matter of minutes. It was kinda impressive, really...

I'd already put an article at WikiFur; when the Wikipedia entry was made, I copied the WikiFur article over to Comixpedia.org .
If PitW gets the finger, there will still be entries. One reason for CfDs is the presence of excessive detail, or "fancruft", in entries which are not officially "notable." A shorter, concise entry that sticks to basic fact is less likely to get deleted than one which includes every known detail on the comic.
