No, but that was funny, especially the comment from number 7. Thank you! It was good that there was a spoof of the LotR movies in the next scene: "There may come a day when the strength of wikipedia fails, but it is not this day! A day when wiki becomes piki, and Pikmin conquer wikipedia, but it is not this day! This day we fight! Remember what you are fighting for: the random article, the wikiprojects, the featured content, and the use of square brackets everywhere!" At least I think it was a spoof of Aragorn's speech at the Black Gate in the third LotR movie. That was itself probably a homage to something else, so it might be a spoof of that hypothetical original. Carcharoth PS. OMG, I just scrolled up to the top and saw the movie poster of Jimbo! _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
