''' What is Forteana? '''

Forteana is a factoid, a tidbit, a small note, that relates the information concerning a strange or anomalous event! This concept has been named after Charles Fort, who was the first to collect this kind of information in a systematic, cross-referenceable way. We are trying to duplicate such efforts here, on this Wiki, so that Fortean researchers can have a community-driven resource available to them that they can use for their own research, and also help build it for others interested in studying the weird and sifting through these 'facts of the Damned!'
