Welcome to The Genius of Autism Wiki

Welcome to The Genius of Autism Wiki! We are a Wiki about the gifts of autism and autistic people with remarkable achievements. Our goal is to help defeat prejudices and ostracism as well as to highlight the many positive aspects of autism and give these extraordinary people the praise and encouragement they deserve. The Genius of Autism Wiki has been created by the Autism Hall of Fame team, but anyone can contribute. Create an account, click "add new page" (top right) to create a new page or the "edit" button at the top of any page to get started and contribute. You can also add people who are not (or not yet) in the Autism Hall of Fame, but you do have to describe their achievements (as for the Autism Hall of Fame our criteria for genius are "creativity and eminent achievement"). You are also more than welcome to add people who are in the Autism Hall of Fame and whom we haven't added to the Genius of Autism Wiki yet. It would actually be a great help to us. If you prefer you can also contact us at our aol (America Online) email address indicated at the bottom of the Autism Hall of Fame page if you wish to change something (in particular if it is about you and you want either to have details added or removed or you want to send as a different photo or want to have your page protected), but it is really easy to create an account. If you want to see who is already included an easy method is to go to the Photos Section. There are currently three pages in the Photos Section (pages can have a maximum of 48 images, then a new page is automatically created). Of course you can also use the Search Function, but in the Photos Section you can see photos of all people who have been included and you can then click on their name to go to their own page and read more about them. The Photos Section also has some quotations we consider relevant for autism. Our favorite quotation is: "Prejudice is a great time saver. You can form opinions without having to get the facts". (E.B. White) Perfect for those who refuse to look at the evidence that autistic people can accomplish great things. All the awesome people featured in the Genius of Autism Wiki are on the spectrum (even if not specifically mentioned in all entries).

Photos and videos are a great way to add visuals to your wiki. Find videos about your topic by exploring Fandom's Video Library.
