This was on digg, found it interesting. Also, funny.

It's a large compilation of some of the biggest Wikipedia "edit wars".

-Should the entry on "anus" show a picture of a person's bum? Male or female? Hairless or moderately hairy? (2000 edits)
-Should the entry on "cow tipping" include a picture of a cow with the caption "an unsuspecting potential victim"? (2000 edits)

:lol: Arachnophobia - Appropriate to include a huge picture of a tarantula on a page about fear of spiders?

I liked the cow tipping one too. I think I would have let that one go and allowed the caption.

While I agree its funny I dont understand why a few dozen lines of text must be transformed into a 1000x2000 pixel image.
Probally so people can repost it on their blog.
The site seems cool though.
