I don’t know for sure, but I believe the details to the edits of individual Wikipedia articles can be seen in the discussion page and in the revision history page. Nobody ever looks there, but the information is provided.
Pawel,
Thank you for the suggestion.
I was unaware of that availability and will check into it.
Maybe I should giggle a Wiki article on how to check a Wiki article…[^o)]
So…wait. Political correctness, then Nazis, then the Japanese, then back to Nazis, then Iceland, then Vikings, then Wikipedia, then beer girls, then back to Wikipedia?
BTW, does this tie in with Doog’s blog post in any way?
EDIT: and FSM is censoring “N-A-Z-I”. Thanks FineScale forums [8-)]
A Nazi was in a beer hall and met another Nazi. So there were two Nazis at the table.
The “censorship” or as I call it the Nanny Bot looks for flame wars. It’s been explained, and I believe, that the plural term is banned if you will in the context of following the word “rivet”, a pejorative used on those accused of being too obsessed with detail correctness.
Calling anyone a Nazi is a pretty unacceptable insult.
We’ve had this specific discussion before, I’m pretty sure, in another thread, when I noticed what Moff is talking about, in one of my own posts. Looks like the nannyware allows it in the singular, but not in the plural.
Whether or not the author meant to troll, he certainly created an entertaining thread [:D]
And GMorrison, was that actually you ranting in one of those threads linked to? I can’t picture you ever getting that heated, especially in that context. Or were you being sarcastic?
