[edit]

The line: "The meme began to grow in popularity after it was used on Reddit in October 2010 in a post titled "LMBO LOOK @ THIS FUKKEN DOGE."[2][8]" does not mention that the original post does not feature Kabuso, but instead an image of a corgi. An archive of this post can be seen here: https://web.archive.org/web/20101023170519/https://www.reddit.com/r/ads/comments/dsxz3/lmbo_look_this_fukken_doge/

The comments on the post also clearly indicate the dog was in fact a corgi.

Given this paragraph begins referencing Kabuso, it should be clearly stated that the original post that is referred to does not actually include Kabuso. Trevorchedda (talk) 01:48, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done The second citation given for this sentence says just as much, leading me to believe the first citation is incorrect, resulting from a hasty conflation of the word with the image. With the factual evidence you present being backed up by the source already given in the article's sourcing, I've updated the wording accordingly as you've asked.

Request to add a section under "Government" in order to include Elon Musk and Donald Trump's proposed branch of the United States Government called "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE), as well as link back to the Wikipedia page for the Department of Government Efficiency.

You're probably looking for the Doge disambiguation page, which it is already linked on. Ringtail Raider (talk) 07:54, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the "Origin and pronunciation" section of this page, on the last paragraph, the word "meme", after the words "In Polish Internet this", is spelled "mem". 9AsphaltLegend (talk) 02:31, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
