Alas it didn't occur to me! Or rather it did, but I couldn't remember
what the page name was where that junk went... somebody obviously made
it as a joke, but there were a lot more that were deliberate and crude
vandalism :(

I was very busy yesterday deleting empty pages and correcting poor
disabled redirects and deleting vandalised entries with no other
content, history or links... I really fail to see why some people find
it funny to take a blank entry and write an obscenity in it. There were
at least a dozen of them in the first page of the stub list... 

BTW, the 'delete this page' option is very handy in the stub and orphan
list... but I really doubt that it belongs in the 'long articles'
listing. It's rather dangerous! I doubt that the people who wrote
treatises on various things would like to see them casually deleted by a
passer-by or a troll...
