This flash-short fiction by Desmond Warzel is a brilliant mix of Ballard-esque ‘invisible literature’ in the style of a message forum, the juxtaposition of wikian impermanence with reality, historical Eurocentrism, flamewars, moderator pedantry, and time travel tropes - “everybody kills Hitler on their first trip.” Paradoxes figure predominantly, including a reverse ontology projection (”if we kill Hitler then time travel won’t be invented”) and an oblligatory Grandfather Paradox. This must also be a singular exception to Godwin’s Law.

Abyss & Apex : Fourth Quarter 2007: Wikihistory

I have a particular weakness for futurist pseudohistory (fiction written as future historical document, such as The Dune Encyclopedia - not to be confused with the related cryptohistory, sensationalist dogma masquerading as fact such as Holocaust denial) and this prompted fond memories of reading The Complete Time Traveler.
