LOL @ Wikipedia article on "Software Cracker"

[earthpigg]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_cracker

it currently redirects to the article on "URL Redirection".

i don't know if the real article was one of the 'protected' ones or not and Wikipedia's security had to be bypassed/cracked, but that seems to be the inferred claim by this cute little malicious redirect... considering what was redirected.

edit: awww, someone fixed it! all well, screen shot attached :P

Wow. And you'd think Wikipedia was biased!

Here's my favorite Wiki Family page (technically on Wikiversity)

Bleh. *slaps myself and the bot.*

Can someone fix these links?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Cracker_%28computing%29

Please point each link to Software cracking instead of Cracker (computing)

bots like those get confused by these sometimes. I need to go to bed, and have already fixed Software cracker links.

Make sure though, that the text that appears on-screen is the same. For example, if it links to [[Cracker (computing)]] make it [[Software cracking|Cracker (computing)]]

Meh. Most of the high-profile articles are accurate.

Who added that?

it got a chuckle out of me but... seriously, that type of crap isn't going to reflect well on the Ubuntu community.


and you forgot to cite it anyways.

I'm sure there have been much worse things happen on/to Wikipedia.
