Something that is currently causing me a great deal of amusement: our
article at [[Hudong]] was created in April 2008 (when it had 2.4m
articles).
There was an earlier article at [[Hoodong]], created in November 2007
(when it had a mere 1.5 million articles) ... and deleted the same day
as everyone's favourite, CSD A7. ("...about a web site that does not
assert significance") It seems after that, no-one got around to
recreating it for six months.
Ooops.
