Re: [WikiEN-l] Wikipedia on cracked.com

Well. I am looking at the entry on "List of 7th Heaven Episodes". Author mentions: "What was that, code? What the hell is this show about? We can't stress this enough, there are 29,601 words in this entry and not one of them gives us the slightest clue as to why even one person felt the need to devote that much thought to it. Sure, it ran for 11 years. But *The Simpsons* has been on for 19 seasons and its entry**<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_simpsons>is only a fourth as long." Now author omits the fact that individual Simpson's episodes have articles on them and is actually longer. Now guess what I found! You guessed right TTN: - http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=And_Away_We_Go_%287th_Heaven%29&a… - http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tit_for_Tat_%287th_Heaven%29&… - http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Some_Break_Ups_and_Some_Get_Toget… etc... etc.. (more examples exist for the same show, I do not care to list any more) Over the time article was barred from any info regarding the plot (content) of the show as visible in the current version unlike the old version: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_7th_Heaven_episodes&o… <sarcasm> The second we have people on the internet that complains about the extensive coverage on a topic we should race to remove as much info as possible rather than expand other similar articles. Imagine extensive coverage on fiction related topics! Surely thats not something we want. I would also recommend "a court order forbidding anyone from adding to, and thereby further ruining, the Star Wars franchise". </sarcasm> - White Cat On Jan 30, 2008 9:38 AM, michael west &lt;michawest(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote:
