I'm glad to know that we're making personal attacks because of a
failure to put fake material on the front page. It displays a maturity
and respect for the project that speaks volumes.
What? Silent is a volume.

[[Nintendo Entertainment System]] will be the Featured Article

Featured_article_candidates#European_toilet_paper_holder]]. It seems
to me a spectacularly lame and unimaginative choice. If running a
genuinely ersatz text was too daring, at least we could have run an
oddball article that looked like a hoax, but I guess even that was too
much for the timid souls at the steering wheel.
I am disappointed by the process by which this decision was reached
and I especially disappointed by the outcome, but I guess it reflects
the fact that Wikipedia EN is overpopulated by geeky teenagers who
probably prefer Red Bull to red wine and Game Boys to sex.
