A year or so ago, the Best Editor Hugo got split into long form and short form. This was done in order to recognize the great work being done by book editors, which was being overlooked by the Hugo process in favor of magazine editors.*
The problem is, who edits which books? Tor lists its editors on the copyright pages of its books. But no one else does. So I decided to create a wiki about science fiction and fantasy editors. Shortly after making it, I realized that the wiki was a great resource beyond helping people nominate editors for the two Hugo Awards.
Unfortunately, I didn't have time to promote and make it work. Some people were pretty active on it. Most people weren't. I was contacted last year by the people who run SF Awards Watch about the possibility of them taking over the wiki. Today they've announced that the wiki has gone live.
You can see the wiki here and my entry here.
