LifeWiki is a wiki dedicated to Conway's Game of Life,[1] with over 2000 articles on the subject[2] and a large collection of Life patterns stored in a format based on Run-length encoding that it uses in common with other Life software such as Golly.[3] LifeWiki serves as a focal point for one of the many mathematical communities John Horton Conway's work brought into being.[4] The URI of the main page is https://www.conwaylife.com/wiki/Main_Page.
