I thought I'd let you know that the facebook
("Rogue's
gallery" as Andrewa humerously called it) is open at
[[Wikipedia:Facebook]]. It's a compilation of pictures of our
contributors.
The idea itself is pretty good, but the page already demonstrates that
it doesn't really work because almost everybody is going to try to be
special and either distort their image beyond recognition (e.g.
LordSuryaofShropshire) or use something that barely even depicts their
self (e.g. Anthère). To a non-Wikipedian, this kind of thing reinforces
the belief that Wikipedia is run/controlled by a bunch of weirdos.
