'''Encyclopedia Greyhawkania Index''' is the creation of [[Jason Zavoda]]. Each entry shows the source material and what page(s) in the source material reference the listing. Below are the sources currently indexed with their associated abbreviations are in prentices and the common abbreviations used in each listing.
__TOC__
The '''Encyclopedia Greyhawkania Index''' (EGI) is a fan-created index of (most) every official {{smallcaps|World of Greyhawk}} source through 2001 and some additional sources through c.2008, giving page number citations by Topic, listing most every proper noun in the sourcebooks.


Look for specific Index entries on relevant pages in this wiki. If a page does not have an Index entry please add it from the Encyclopedia.
== History and development == 
The EGI originally began as the creation of [[Jason Zavoda]]. It was a tremendous project, cataloguing every proper noun in the {{smallcaps|World of Greyhawk}} sourcebooks—a similar project to Krista Siren's [https://greyhawkonline.com/gordmain/ ''Gord's Greyhawk''] project, indexing all the novels. Each entry showed the source material and what pages in the source material reference the listing in an ''Encyclopædia Britannica'' "location indexing" style.


The index itself is hosted here: [http://www.greyhawkonline.com/encyclopedia-2003-08-31.txt Encyclopedia Greyhawkania Index on greyhawkonline.com]
Zavoda described his work as an index for a theoretical encyclopedia that does not exist, but was imagined to be something similar to the [[Savant-Sage]]'s seven volume encyclopedia, the ''Catalogue of the Land Flanaess''. The EGI is the ''index'' rather than the ''encyclopedia'' itself.

When the ''[[Living Greyhawk Gazetteer]]'' was published, it did not have an index—which was considered one of the few flaws of the book.<ref>{{cite web |last=Mistretta |first=Will |title=Review of Living Greyhawk Gazetteer> |url=https://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/10/10074.phtml |format= |work=RPG.net |publisher=Dyvers Hands Productions |date=February 6, 2004 |accessdate=March 10, 2025 |page= |pages= |language= |quote=Problematically, the LGG includes no index at the end whatsoever. While the book is exceedingly well-organized, it can still be difficult to locate an obscure fact in a pinch.

The Encyclopedia Greyhawkania Index (EGI) is a fan-created index of (most) every official World of Greyhawk source through 2001 and some additional sources through c.2008, giving page number citations by Topic, listing most every proper noun in the sourcebooks.

History and development

The EGI originally began as the creation of Jason Zavoda. It was a tremendous project, cataloguing every proper noun in the World of Greyhawk sourcebooks—a similar project to Krista Siren's Gord's Greyhawk project, indexing all the novels. Each entry showed the source material and what pages in the source material reference the listing in an Encyclopædia Britannica "location indexing" style.

Zavoda described his work as an index for a theoretical encyclopedia that does not exist, but was imagined to be something similar to the Savant-Sage's seven volume encyclopedia, the Catalogue of the Land Flanaess. The EGI is the index rather than the encyclopedia itself.

When the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer was published, it did not have an index—which was considered one of the few flaws of the book.[1][2] However, Jason Zavoda independently indexed it, and that index was published in Living Greyhawk Journal #12, in June 2002.[3]

Zavoda compiled his work through 2008 (with one addition for Ghosts of Saltmarsh in 2019), and his work was continued and updated by Eric Johnson, Richard "Longetalos" DiIola, Jason "PupickDad" Jaobson, a French fan group, and numerous other fans over the years, even after his passing.

Though Zavoda passed away in 2021, his work continues to be useful and impactful, and forever changed the way fans were able to access obscure sources for their research.

EGI use on the Great Library of Greyhawk

On the Great Libraray of Greyhawk wiki hosted on GreyhawkOnline.com, the EGI takes the shape of the tables at the bottom of wiki articles. Each page populates the pertinent sources and references about a topic, using Template:Index.

In spring of 2020, Zavoda worked with GreyhawkOnline to work out the best way to tabulate EGI and have results from the EGI display on articles of the Great Library wiki.

For more information about the EGI, its history, and how it came to be in its current form, visit the EGI page on greyhawkonline.com as well as to see the original TXT file, and download an XLS spreadsheet of the current EGI used on GHO.

Source code abbreviations

Though they are not in general use by the majority of fans, the original EGI used product code abbreviations in place of titles. The Great Library of Greyhawk wiki uses titles, but below are the indexed sources with their associated abbreviations used in the original EGI.

"Problematically, the LGG includes no index at the end whatsoever. While the book is exceedingly well-organized, it can still be difficult to locate an obscure fact in a pinch. Pity the poor GM who has to look up what year Idee was absorbed into Ahlissa's South Province at the gaming table without benefit of a good index."
