I apparently banned Jimmy Wales, does that
count?

Subject: [Wikimediauk-l] Any suggestions of interesting article histories for a comedic
talk?
Hi all,
I'm doing a comedy-science talk on Wikipedia with the theme of 'histories' at
a [[Bright Club]] Manchester early next month. My current plan (which is still subject to
change) is that I'll talk about the histories of Wikipedia articles, and show some
interesting/amusing changes made to articles.
An example would be this one:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Guantanamo_Bay_Naval_Base&dif…
which was a change purported to be made by the FBI back in 2005:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:64.165.110.114
If you know of any interesting diffs/article histories that could make people laugh, then
please could you send me some pointers to them (preferably offlist)?
Thanks,
Mike
