Favorite wikipedia article?

Mine is the Chernobyl incident.

I think it is a good example of how things can go from bad, to worse, to holy crap a nuclear reactors just blew up in a matter of seconds.

 

[OCGuy]

I would tell you but I can't choose a favorite. Maybe you should ask for our top ~10 favorites?

 

[BladeVenom]

I think the whole thing took more than 12 hours.

I don't have a favorite. I use it as a resource for information, not really entertainment purposes, though I can get sucked into reading many entries.

I put some wikipedia in your wikipedia so you could read your wikipedia while you're reading wikipedia.

I don't have favorites, but I think it's a great resource - it's amazing the things it has.

I suggest donating to support it.

I use Wikipedia for all kinds of stuff. My favourite topic is on Superpowers (the U.S. and the Soviet Union).

 

[John Connor]

I must read several Wikipedia entries a day. I like the nuclear topics and aviation topics.

I was just reading about Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson while I was reading about pirates and privateers. Very interesting. There are currently two of the worlds oldest ships in existence today and they are the HMS Victoria and the USS Constitution. I read about them both and did you know Paul Revere was a silver smith who made parts for the USS Constitution?

I use Wikipedia for all kinds of stuff. My favourite topic is on Superpowers (the U.S. and the Soviet Union).

I was reading about that too. Did you ever hear the soviet national anthems? I was curious as to what were the former satellite countries in the Soviet unioun.

[Mr. Pedantic]

That's like asking me what my favourite arpeggio is.

 

[Ancalagon44]

I like reading about late 60's American muscle cars - the era when horsepower increased dramatically, and cars were made specifically to compete in Nascar.

I also like reading about various foods - chocolate, donuts, ice cream etc.

I don't really have a favourite article. I like the history ones though because they're short but contain information that can't be found in many other places.

 

[nehalem256]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birth_control

That seems like an interesting article to "creatively" edit.

I like the List of common misconceptions. From there, I can read many interesting articles, mostly about science.

Mine is the Chernobyl incident.

I guess I missed this fact before, but why didn't the OP bother to link his favorite article? Sloppy sloppy sloppy OP.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster

Add to that one this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disaster

Incidentally, this is the one you should be a lot more worried about, because it's still releasing incredibly deadly shit into the environment on a daily basis by air and by sea.

 

[clamum]

I can't list just one, but most likey it's historical. I like military history, especially World War I and II, but I can get lost on there reading for hours about military aircraft, or some specific battle or Operation, and things like that.

Not seeing a lot of people saying they appreciate the importance of their donating to have a good and independant service.

When someone else pays for it, there's a price - same with media and politics. Who are they going to serve - the people paying the bill or the people not paying?
