Eve has a lot of specific terminology, like Point, Scram, long point, slowcat and so on.

There are a bunch of sites out there with definitions, but it's not their main function, so I bring you https://evelexicon.com/

A lexicon for players, by players.

(Play nice. I don't want to moderate it too heavily)

Woo! CSM XI!

Moved to My EVE.

I like the concept. I hope it works out and can be kept in relative order.

Great job, this will be something very useful for new players and old players alike!

Perhaps it could be interesting to allow multiple definitions for a word and allow people to vote for the best definition?

I added in reporting of definitions last night. voting is my next step. Multiple definitions are already allowed (though I need to make the interface a touch clearer for that. If you use the regular form, for a term that already exists, it just adds a new definition.
