Well not many people have seen everything published about Glorantha and I doubt those who have can remember all of it. If you're look at what's published it is almost all about a tiny part of the world. So as soon as you decide on the topic you're immediately reduced to a manageable list. You then find just how many gaps there are and ask on this list or the Glorantha digest if anyone has any relevant campaign notes or similar they're prepared to share. That'll also bring to light the obscure stuff because someone will remember an article published ten years ago in some magazine or con book which is relevant. If no one remembers it, it was either not very good or as been superceeded.
