Crap people do with Wikipedia(NSFW)
« on: June 04, 2011, 08:49:21 pm »
I was browsing some of the paradox lie math equations I enjoy reading about and came upon 1+1+1+1+1=-1/2. Well the article on it has been vandalized to include the image of a naked man. who can fix this and why do you think people do this

Do not go to this if you are somewhere obscene images would get you in trouble. Its not a good thing to see

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_%2B_1_%2B_1_%2B_1_%2B_%C2%B7_%C2%B7_%C2%B7 is the page

Try ctrl-f5 it's a hard refresh.
Yeah it can be pretty irritating when stuff like that happens :/

ctrl-f5 is pretty much like clearing the cache, it refreshes all content on the page instead of just loading from the cache what it can.

My friend changed the biography of "Richard Face" to "Dickface Cocker" and he said it apparently took 5 months before it was cleaned.

Well, there's people who spend their lifes to check the Recent Changes page for major edits, checking if the edit is accurate.
