Cyclic Redundancy

[Beldaran]

I think it's funny that the article about Wikipedia on Wikipedia has a link to Wikipedia. You know, just in case you don't know the URL to Wikipedia whilst reading about Wikipedia on Wikipedia.






Wikipedia.

Wikipedia has a Wikipedia page that tells you what Wikipedia is while linking to Wikipedia?

Oh no! Infinite recursion!

Oh, man, sad face! The article on "Wikipedia" used to have among its "See Also" related article links a link to the article on self-reference (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-reference), but now it's gone. I found that to be an excellent and clever bit of subtle humor; I guess there's no room for that on Wikipedia.

Huh. You'd think that if they'd include a link to its own site on its own page, they'd include more information about stuff, as it's a site about information about stuff. (See, I can do it too, yay.)

Wikipedia does good recursive fact checks, as well. Slashdot had a story last week about a German politician with a complicated name. The Wikipedia article had his name wrong (he had like 4 middle names and they added a 5th), and it was corrected. However, a popular magazine used Wikipedia to look up his name before the correction and printed the wrong name, so the Wikipedia page was corrected citing the article.

Thus, the magazine used Wikipedia to get its facts, and Wikipedia used the magazine as a cited source.

I just realized the title of this thread is spelled incorrectly.

Yeah, damn typos. Also I left out the silent 'jkh'.

EDIT:

The current XKCD is brilliant today:
