The bastard love child of a threeway between reddit, wikipedia and tv tropes, it provides cutting, satirical commentary on internet phenomena, a large chunk of human population and many popular fandoms. Presumably 4chan was involved as well.
The true genius of the Encyclopedia Dramatica is how it manages to offend the very people who offend everybody else.

A tongue-in-cheek website mimicking Wikipedia. Chronicles internet culture rather than factual information, and is largely built on sarcasm and hyperbole.

A stupid wiki full of Autism shaming, Retard shaming, Brony shaming, Gay shaming, meatspin, goatse, lemonparty, ads that give you viruses, and stereotypes.
The average Encyclopedia Dramatica user is 14 years old. He is at the stage of life where he things homophobia is good. He is also at the stage where mental diseases are fair game for insults disguised as jokes, and thinks shock sites are funny.
The developers of Encyclopedia Dramatica don't care about quality control; anything goes there. They just want to put ads that give viruses to appease their advertisers, sites like playpickle and many generic porn viruses.
The basic framework of an Encyclopedia Dramatica page: This person's autistic and he can't take an insult; be nice. Gay nigger faggot I love Meatspin wee!
Thankfully, there's a joke wiki that is actually FUNNY. It's called uncyclopedia. This is a better version of Uncyclopedia that doesn't use stereotypes or shock images to be funny.

I went on Encyclopedia Dramatica today; I had to go on Uncyclopedia for 13 hours to recover from how unfunny it was!

A severely biased and somehwat cruel wikipedia for the internet (among other things). Though written in a sardonic voice tends to have at least a grain of truth in what's written.
This feud would eventually cause each author to take out her frustration on her friend's cameo character out of spite. Raven by way of grade demotion and disposition change - Tara by way of expulsion, death, and postmortem rape. Moar quotes:
“
“BTW Willow that fucking poser got expuld. she failed al her klasses and she skepped math.” (an: RAVEN U FUKIN SUK! FUK U!) Maybe Willow will die too.” I said.
“Kawai.” B’loody Mair shook her head enrgtically lethrigcly. “Oh yeah o have a confession after she got expuld I murdered her and den loopin did it with her cause he’s a necphilak.”
“Kawai.” I commnted happily .

Basically, a hilarious site that makes fun of everything imaginable. If you dislike ED, you probably are either 1. incredibly liberal or conservative (IE narrow-minded), 2. an idiot, or 3. somebody who takes the internet too seriously. It's a funny website as long as you don't take it too seriously.
Guy: Hey, did you see Encyclopedia Dramatica's article on Halo? It's really funny.
Guy 2: Oh, I hate that site. It makes fun of everything.
Guy: It's just parody. Don't take it so seriously.
Guy 2: Now that I have my head out of my ass, I can enjoy some comedy. Thanks, Guy!

Basically a rip off of the much more interesting and hilarious wikisite Uncyclopedia, as in, it's not that interesting or hilarious at all, as is with all rip offs. Often the people who write articles for the site overuse bold font and the word "gay", then end up finding a way to make themselves look dumb.
Note that all the articles are written by people who can't do come backs for shit and using it's "exclusiveness"(much like Gmail was with invites) to avoid the people or fans of whatever subject to reply back, thus, meaning they can't be seen as even more lame then what they already appear to be. But then again, the best way to know a person is a complete cockshit online is to see if they belong to the site.
