All I can tell you is bought RockyWiki.org about a decade ago, and then things got in the way.  Now, it's different, now we have time to put into this again.  Create a wiki for the stars of Rocky Horror, and no I don't mean just the people who were in the movie. The people who act it out every weekendLike the Fan Database that used to be on Cosmo's Factory back years ago.
