Reading about the recent Christian Laettner's apology to Aminu Timberlake in March 2015, almost 23 years after the unfortunate "stomp" incident during the Kentucky-Duke game in 1992, critics say one of the most, and to my mind, I say theeee most famous game of college basketball ever, I discovered in horror and utter disbelief that we in Wikipedia despite our +4,750,000 articles and contributions from tens of thousands of Wikipedia editors, still didn't have an article on Kentucky's Aminu Timberlake. This newly created article of mine today (27 March 2015) is to rectify this great oversight of ours and is my very humble nod to Aminu and a sort of a token apology from me personally as well, an avid Christian Laettner fan for ages now, from his first-ever year in the NCAA to today, which makes this contributed article to Wikipedia all the more worthwhile for me. I have contributed literally hundreds upon hundreds of new articles to Wikipedia throughout the years and amassed more than 200,000 edits to the project. But I personally find this particular article about Aminu Timberlake symbolically a very important contribution indeed, long overdue and way way more relevant and meaningful than the many hundreds of articles I contributed elsewhere, and I must add an absolutely necessary and must page I had to establish on Wikipedia. And being a huge basketball fan, a fan who finds basketball is the most beautiful of all sports ever, a very touching moment in praise of the game that gripped my imagination from the first time I watched it as a young kid in school, a game that still fascinates me even today at no end, a game I still follow with great awe and admiration. werldwayd (talk) 14:50, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
