Cliff Pickover and Wikidumper

As a profound admirer of the prolific polymath Clifford A Pickover, I am delighted to have found yet another of his fascinating projects, WikiDumper.org. It is endlessly fascinating. this compendium of articles that have been slated for deletion from Wikipedia, so I've added it to my blogroll of favourites in the left sidebar of the Blogmanac.

Articles such as List of notable moustaches in art and fiction, Effects of Christmas on the Environment and List of people who died in the bathroom are typical WikiDumps. I could stay all day if I had time.

Wikipedia says here: "WikiDumper.org is a website created by Clifford A. Pickover that promises to permanently record a snapshot of the 'best of the Wikipedia rejects', articles that are slated for deletion at the site. WikiDumper was launched on November 4, 2006, and accepts user submissions."

Get to know Cliff Pickover through his various online projects. May he live long and prosper.
