You may have noticed something weird going on here at Know Your Meme. Advice Animals and Feels Good Man on the front page? Aren't those memes well-documented?

Yes and no. Over these last 10 years, some of our most popular, cited and important entries have collected a lot of digital dust. We aim to change that.

So this year, we plan on cleaning, updating and front-paging roughly 1,200 legacy entries, none of which have been on the front-page before.

This project also needs your help. As always, if you have information to contribute to a meme or entry, please share it with the team, so we can ensure that these internet artifacts are as comprehensive as possible. You can reach us via DM or the suggestion submission field. Not only do we need your meme knowledge, our site depends on it.

Many of these entries haven't been touched since the site launched, yet some have collected millions of views. It's our job as the internet's largest and most complete meme and internet phenomena database to make sure that the information in those entries is easy-to-read, comprehensive and up-to-date. Use this as an opportunity to fill in some gaps in your meme history or simply ignore the memes that are not relevant to you. But keep in mind, these memes account for some of the Internet's most legendary, important and influential trends. And as the internet's premier custodians, it's our job to keep them clean.

Let the 2021 Database Restoration begin!*
