Scott Hwang (February 14, 2024). "Hwang: Wikipedia is what the internet promised to be". The Daily Northwestern. Retrieved February 15, 2024. There are pages that list helicopter prison escapes and sexually active popes, not to mention the list of unusual Wikipedia articles from which I found these examples –– or the wonderfully recursive list of lists of lists.

Classification of stations

Newhaven Marine railway station is in Places and infrastructure, but Wallsend Metro railway station is in Transport. As they're both British railway stations they should be in the same category, but I don't know which one. Your opinions? YttriumShrew, 04:27, 11 December 2019

i ask if this image and its description could be considered unusual and comedic enough in nature to be on this page User:Liance/Horngus of a Dongfish 2605:4A80:F002:2710:DC1C:99F2:337D:8502 (talk) 05:33, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Grammar Mistake in Latin American and the Caribbean > Hacienda Nápoles

There's a grammar mistake under the Latin America and the Caribbean > "Hacienda Nápoles" article . The description ".. that may lead to an invasive hippopotamus population in Colombia." be changed to "...that may have lead...".

Strictly speaking, the introduction of hippopotamuses to the Hacienda Nápoles did in fact lead to the overall introduction of hippopotamuses in Colombia, so the correct phrasing could also be "which led to the introduction of an invasive hippopotamus population in Colombia."
