This is the very model of a Web encyclopedia,
It's got a zillion topics by the grace of Wikimedia,
It lists the kings of England, and it notes the fights historical,
From Marathon to Karbala, in order categorical;
It's thoroughly inclusive, too, of topics mathematical,
It talks about equations, both the simple and quadratical,
About binomial theorem it's teeming with a lot o' news,
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse.

(A chorus of editorial voices chimes in--)
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse;
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse;
With many cheerful facts about the square of the
hypote- potenuse.

It talks about both integral and differential calculus;
It states the scientific names of beings animalculous;
In short, its zillion pages by the grace of Wikimedia
Make it the very model of a web encyclopedia.

In short, its zillion pages by the grace of Wikimedia

It covers mythic histories, King Arthur's and Wild Bill Hickok's;
It helps you with acrostics and it chats about the paradox,
It covers elegiacs and the crimes of Heliogabalus,

It speaks in lovely prose about the Legio Germanica,

We sometimes have some trouble with rude vandals who'll confuseya
(Although they're much less cruel than the ones from Vandalusia)
When such reverts and edit wars cause stress for Wikipedians,
Administrators try to make it better with expedience
So editors can concentrate on cleaning featured articles
And clarifying facts about rare subatomic particles
Because providing information free on public media's
The overriding purpose of a web encyclopedia.

Yes, all our gathered knowledge, though we're plucky and adventury,
Has only been collected since beginning of the century;

Make it the very model of a web encyclopedia!

Thorpe RFA nomination

I wrote that message because I saw some clear vandalism from a known user, Thorpe. I dug just a little to find a number of pages had been vanadalised in a very short window of time, so I sent the message. I presumed it wasn't the real Thorpe (I wondered if Thorpe remained logged on while some other person did some mischievous edits), as Thorpe's history indicated reliable contributions. But there's no way for me to know, and I haven't investigated since. Cheers, Daniel Collins 15:06, 11 July 2005 (UTC).
