To be fair, Concord is not "focused" on the Wheel of Time.  WoT just
so happens to be a particularly large and successful fantasy series
that Alfvaen happens to be "an enormous fan of".  I do not think
Concord has deviated from its original purpose.  That would be like
suggesting Gameinfo deviated from its original purpose by adding Zelda
content when Zelda wiki exists... etc.

I personally would like to see Concord used for smaller, less popular
series and there be e.g individual Harry Potter and ASOIAF Wikis. 
(No, I haven't read those books yet, so I haven't checked if they
exist)

PS: I am very much looking forward to reading ASOIAF, but I've decided
to wait until it's finished.  Being in the middle of a single large
as-yet-unfinished series (WoT) is plenty, thank-you-very-much! :)
