fullowy

Fullowy is a neologism that appears in online discussions and fan wikis to describe content that is unusually dense, thorough, or densely packed with information. As an adjective, it is used to characterize articles, guides, or posts that attempt to cover a topic comprehensively, often including extensive references, cross-links, and footnotes. In some contexts, fullowy can also function as a playful noun to refer to such an encyclopedic entry itself.

Origin and attestation of the term are not well established in major dictionaries. The word is thought to be a blend of the English word “full” and a suffix pattern found in various languages that yields descriptive adjectives. Early appearances are informal and scattered across online forums and wiki talk pages in the early 2020s, with no single authoritative source for its usage.

Usage and reception: In practice, fullowy writing aims for completeness and depth, sometimes at the expense of readability or conciseness. It is often embraced in communities that value exhaustive documentation, such as wiki projects, game manuals, or reference pages, where dense information and careful organization are appreciated. In fiction or role-playing contexts, a fullowy entity may be imagined as a form that embodies data, memory, or digital presence, used illustratively to convey concept-heavy themes.
