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.

How about we run [[Exploding whale]] again - it /looks/ like a hoax,
but it isn't.
