A cereal bar that looks like E.T. The German language. A 16,000-ton aircraft carrier. The nation of Iceland -- not including Björk. Wikipedians have rounded up the weirdest items for sale on @eBay.

Cool! Should we add something to clarify what E.T. is in case non-U.S. folks aren't familiar? Something like "the famous fictional alien, E.T."

Love it, just not sure how I feel about the juxtaposition of "Wikipedians" and "weird".
Are these actually *Wikipedians collecting *or *Wikipedians recording/editing/contributing these edits*? Might want to clarify that. Fb copy is fine, but Tw is a little ambiguous to me.
