Calling all pedants and statistics nerds

[franzeska]

I'm cross-posting this from LJ for great justice even more nerd power. Along with our annual squee, recs, wank, IRC shenanigans, and flist-spamming, we also have the tradition of Excessive Listmaking to uphold.

Who wants to help me work on the Fanlore article on Yuletide's history? Most of the dates and numbers there already have citations from yuletide for 2003-2007 and yuletide_admin for 2007 on, but the un-cited ones could use links as well. (Yes, it seems petty, but it does help if one has a question about a date later.) The article is currently almost entirely missing figures for nominated fandoms, requested fandoms, signups, works, and pinch hits/defaults. You know you want that data. You know you want to make pretty charts. Who wants to help me find the rest of it?
