G'day Mark,
Since I hope Wikipedia will become, in the long term, a compendium of all human knowledge, I think it sad that an unexplained decision to unilaterally remove content has poked holes in its coverage of internet culture, an important area of current sociological research at which Wikipedia ought naturally to excel.
Fear not, my good man! I'm sure the denizens of Encyclopedia Dramatica are more than ready to step up to the plate and document the phenomenon of Mr Peppers' deformity; if anything, their coverage will be more complete, and feature more swearing and callous mockery. As such, they can do a much better job of recording Internet culture than we'll *ever* do.
