Wikipedia Plays Zero Games

A few weeks back, I wrote a blog post called Hangover Helpers For When You're "Never Drinking Again" about the Wikipedia page for hangover helpers and how none of my helpers were in attendance. After an especially long, almost never-ending weekend, I found myself back at the Wikipedia site, hoping to come across some new words of wisdom. While there were no new words of wisdom to cure my self-inflicted illness, there was also none of my self-acclaimed hangover remedies! I haven’t checked back to the website since I made my additions, so I’m not exactly sure when they were removed, but they were definitely removed. Every single one of them.

While I’m not ecstatic that somebody thought my ingenious additions were dispensable, I am a little relieved that when Wikipedia pages are altered without professional supervision, action is taken to return the page to it’s normal state. I didn’t feel very comfortable altering the page in the first place, so I can’t say I’m devastated that my alterations are now a thing of the past.

Even though the minions over at Wikipedia don’t approve of my methods, I still think I’m a creative little genius. So if you are in need of assistance this upcoming Taco Tuesday, journey on over to my post about Hangover Helpers. Come Wednesday, you (and your boss) will be happy you did.
