Wikipedia is trying to freak me out
-
I occasionally hit random page on Wikipedia just to expand my mind. Just now, not 5 minutes ago, I got served this page[^]. How do they know I'm interested in flight, inventions and famous Hungarians, and how did they find a page that combines all three?
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

My tin foil hat is working just fine: I got a German Alpine Club hut[^] in which I have no interest whatsoever... [edit]Link fixed - originalGriff[/edit]

Just so you know it wasn't a one-off: I tried again and got the Romania women's national football team[^] In this case, it appears to be a subject no-one (not even the Romania women's national football team) has any interest in. [edit]Link fixed - OriginalGriff[/edit]

It's a bug in the link paste - if you highlight the human readable text first, the link gets truncated when you paste that. I just realized and reported it. http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4002104/Pasting-link-onto-highlighted-text-truncates-the-l.aspx[^]

You copy your pasta? That is impressive, mine never fits in the scanner...

You've got two :thumbsup: for that. I've been getting cack links for a while, but I couldn't figure the cause.

Hmm, when hitting random page at Wikipedia or the "I feel lucky"-button, I always get something about bacon. Always. :)
