17 brilliantly odd deleted Wikipedia pages
Wikipedia is heavily monitored, so when someone changes a page to say something rude – even if it’s true – about a politician, for example, the edit will be reversed pretty quickly.
Imagine, then, how quickly these very odd subject pages will have been deleted, before being added to Wikipedia’s own page of …deleted pages.
These brilliant examples have all been gathered by the Twitter account Deleted Wikipedia Titles, and for that we can’t thank them enough.
