Great work Johnm. I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I thank you for your time spent and dedication to the task.

Hear hear!  Quite an accomplishment, thanks in very large part to you Johnm!

Yes indeed. What a mammoth task and a huge resource. Thanks Johnm and all contributors.

Thanks for the good words, guys.  It has been a lot of fun and I've learned a lot.  I have no idea of how much people are using Weeniepedia, but there is really a lot of information in there at this point, and not just lyrics.
All best,
Johnm

That's probably one of the eternal laments of all archivists. It's hard yakka (kiwi expression, I have no idea how it originated but always liked the sound of it) accomplishing the task of collecting and making available historical material to the world without getting day to day feedback. Strangely that makes it all the more worthwhile. So just go for it, I reckon. If you need any help just holler.

I transcribed Bo Carter's "Old Devil" a while back but it's not on weeniepedia. Is there a criteria for the songs that are listed? How does this work?

I must have missed the transcription, Harry.
