Indeed.  NP patrol is also a good way to diversify your contributions 
and/or watchlist.  I think [[Furtling]] is probably the strangest page 
on my watchlist, though [[Teabagging]] and [[Bum darts]] come close.

Or, for plain oddness and obscurity, there are [[Pink Pippos of 
Portland]] and [[Fleagle Beagle]].  Or the ever-popular vandalism 
targets [[Anus language]] and [[Tate (god)]].

(I could also list [[Peräsmies]], but it doesn't really belong with the 
others -- I actually ''do'' know something about the subject myself.)
