Anyone thought about creating an ultimate Lord of the Rings Obsidian vault?

  • Includes all books in Markdown format
  • Scrapes data from sites like The One Wiki to Rule Them All | Fandom and put into vault
  • Interactive maps with labels using Leaflet
  • Arts or Mindmaps with Excalidraw
  • All locations and characters documented
  • Organize in chronological order
  • Include Timestamps from the Movies
  • etc ...

I know this would be a massive amount of work and probably not very practical — just a something I think I would enjoy doing.

I guess the question now is how to scrap data from those lotr website and put in our vault so that we could have a solid start organizing those info and stories with Obsidian plugins.

Yeah, it's not the most practical idea—just something fun I think I'd enjoy. As an Obsidian user, I have a tendency toward 'pathological collecting. It would just be satisfying to wake up and see a neatly organized Lord of the Rings folder in my vault.

Or maybe there is some project of lotr I could host my self?
