OK, I went. And this is the result: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AFOL
As with any Wikipedia article, everyone is free to correct or improve
the entry.

Updated a bit, under the 'community' bit, since RTL was really the second online
community, being preceeded by ATL. There was mention recently about the Lego
community in 1991 (in reference to the switch to 9V tracks), but I don't know if
that means ATL was around pre-1993, or whether there was some other venue where
Lego enthusiasts had discussion. Or if people were just mis-remembering. Anyone?
Hmm... Wonder if the wikipedia has entries for RTL/ATL...

Thank you for the correction. I joined the community back in about 1994
on RTL, and now that you mention it, I remember to have heard of an
alt.toys.lego, although not more than hearsay.

Well, just do it. Wikipedia is a new encyclopedia every day ;-)
BTW, if you would create an account there, you're no longer a simple IP
address in the articles history ;-)
