Cancerous DYK suggestion[edit source]
I've witnessed a DYK suggestion that wasn't funny. Like hell, it was more stupid in a bad way. The "Angel number" suggestion actually, sucked. Please delete it. --Robo1699 (talk) 16:48, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
Idea stolen?[edit source]
My recent suggestion, "...that you can nearly eliminate the risk of contracting HIV by killing yourself?", was featured on the Main Page today, with slight rewording: "...that you can nearly eliminate the risk of contracting STDs by killing yourself?". However, it is not listed in this article. Would an Admin please include it? --none 01:51, April 10, 2011 (UTC)
- Hi. Since this is a wiki, please add it yourself. The best way for it to be kept is to put it within the article in literate language, and in an appropriate place. That should get it kept. You don't need an admin to help you write here, and please feel free to write more. Good to meet you. Aleister 1:54 10-4-'11

problem with showing a DYK on the main page...[edit source]
"...that Gerry Adams IS the Lord of the Dance ?" is taken from the image caption of the Did You Know page, but when listed on the main page it is missing the bullet ("*" syntax missing?) 131.130.121.106 11:22, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Main page adjective[edit source]
I propose that the "Did You Know" on the main page have a short description to parallel that of Wikipedia, "from Wikipedia's newest articles:" Instead of "newest", what should it be here? "stupidest", "glorious", "yummiest,", or maybe "most _____"? —Lenoxus 16:27, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Half graduate in bottom 50%?[edit source]
A recent "Did You Know" states:
"half of all American schoolchildren graduate in the bottom 50% of their class"
Would it be more accurate (and possibly more humorous) to say:
"over half of all American schoolchildren graduate in the bottom 50% of their class"
(due to dropouts, etc)?
No.
