The Random Button On Wikipedia

What interesting things do you get from it?

I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Re: The Random Button On Wikipedia

i usually get obscure kinds of moths, foreign cities with a population of approximately ten, and slightly notable people who get about a paragraph or less
sometimes i used to turn to it in times of desperation for a story idea, it never worked though

Re: The Random Button On Wikipedia

I remember made a TBG based on the random button before - basically saying what you get and rating the one above you.

Anyway, usually when I click on it I get an article about a railroad station in Korea, list of people who won medals at the 1986 Paralympics, or an obscure genus of grass that only exists in a the Brazil plains.

I pressed that random button once before and got a page you wouldn't want to know about.

Re: The Random Button On Wikipedia

I tend to get small cities, minor people, and random stuff like sports.

Tip of the whatever: Don't post in threads older than 2 weeks unless your post will actually be useful.
It's the last day of 1.4! *cries* (quote from NeilWest, rest by me) by the time you read this it probably will be 2.0  sad
