While I think Wikipedia vandalism is 4chan-like puerile nonsense at its lowest ("Look at me, I can anonymously change an open wiki so it says something funny...LOLZ"), it is always amusing when you stumble over it accidentally. The best sort is where it is inserted subversively into a block of text on a serious subject, like a silent fart in a classroom. Alternatively it can be idiotically childish like so: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_bar Hopefully it won't be corrected too soon. What have you come across lately? Just don't ask why I was looking up Mars Bars on Wikipedia.
yes please! on another note - the school i go to gets a talk page update daily. Well, it used to, untill it got a 3 month ban. The edits those kids make are sometimes hilarious. Dont ask me why i looked up my school's talk page.
Wasn't quick enough for those wily Wiki censors. Swooping down like Batman on Robin. I got a screen capture, I'll post if you care, but the essence of it was that Mars Bars were made from God's "leavings" and the caramel was his "contributions". I can't get more delicate than that for those faint of manners. Edit - Link to handy and quick free image hosting. Don't look if you are a Victorian spinster.

My favourite ever Wiki vandalism was a subversive little entry on some obscure Central European Archduke or whatever, describing in base detail what exactly got him hard. It was just so random! Language was just the right sort of offhand neutrality, and inserted (no pun intended) within a text block it came as such a lovely surprise. I couldn't imagine that the entry would have gotten more than a handful of views a year, but somebody took the time to mess with it. I got on to it through one of my Wikipedia splurges where I go there to look something up about USB 3.0 specifications and I end up linking through and reading an entry on a 14th-Century nobelman from a principality that hasn't existed for 500 years via steam trains of the Great Western Railway. And it is 8 hours later. And I'm dying for a piss.

Although The Youth Of The Countries Did Not Like The Taste, So Mars Changed The Moon Cheese To Soft Nougat. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mars_Bar&diff=316560016&oldid=316546896 it was originally founded as a food for astranouts as they were used to moon cheese, which up until 2001 was what the mars bar was made of. yeah, that guy is really cool
