Suggestion: Having Fun with Elvis on Stage
An Elvis Presley album without any music. 216.225.48.254 (talk) 23:08, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
Suggestion:
Shout-out to Bovine sports and List of nineteenth-century Major League Baseball players with unidentified given names. A caption I'd reckon for the latter is: "The stellar 1884 Washington Nationals had six of these players alone!" Badgogetter (talk) 00:04, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
- Retraction: focus more on "bovine bingo", which leads to the article, not sports that people in majority find legitimate. Badgogetter (talk) 00:06, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Add Dai Hong Dan incident to the list, as it resulted in a joint victory between the US and North Korea, which are two countries that some would not normally expect to work together in military (or in general). 172.112.199.166 (talk) 16:06, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Proposed addition: Philadelphia Flyers–Ottawa Senators brawl
The fact that this game broke the record for penalty minutes is crazy. Elisecars727 (talk) 03:26, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- I forgot to add this but it should be under the "Sports" section Elisecars727 (talk) 03:31, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
History page seems a bit broken?
Not sure where to put this but when I looked in the page history the latest edit was from 23 March 2023, and the page has definitely been edited since then! Why is this? TypoEater (talk) 18:38, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
- Each of the sections is a separate sub-page that's transcluded onto the main WP:Unusual articles. Edits to transcluded pages change the content of the main article, but do not show up in its history since they are separate articles. Randi🦋TalkContribs 10:17, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

The political system of Belgium is very strange, with many locals saying that,"If you understand it, we explained it wrong to you." Of course this is mostly satirical, but as this article itself is satirical, it should also be included. This is why Belgium, or the political system of Belgium should be included in the "Politics and Government" section of the government. SpinoAce (talk) 02:58, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

In Nova Scotia, there is a place with the street names of "This street","That street",and "the other street", I recommend an article on this to be put here. SpinoAce (talk) 13:24, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- This should be pushed to WP:Unusual place names. ! Quwoting2 {converse} 13:54, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- An article already exists on the place, see Porters Lake, Nova Scotia. Difficultly north (talk) Time, department skies 11:54, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Under the subsection for “Society, Economy, and Law” is the name “Varg Vikernes”. The text next to his name reads: “A Norwegian musician that is famous for being the first big stars of the Black Metal music scene in the country, and a guy that had many problems with the law. Both in Norway and later France, the later of wich it was for apperently saying positive things about Nazism.” Please change the text to say: “A Norwegian musician that is famous for being the first big stars of the Black Metal music scene in the country, and a guy that has had many problems with the law, both in Norway and later France, the latter of which was apparently for saying positive things about Nazism.” 2601:1C0:4D7F:87B0:0:0:0:D293 (talk) 04:38, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

The Immovable Ladder of the Holy Church of Sepulchre
Six Christian denominations own the Church of Sepulchre in Jerusalem and they must all agree on any alterations or additions to the church. They denominations often had bitter feuds, even violent confrontation over the centuries over ownership so people just agreed to leave the ladder where it is to avoid angering anyone. It's a longstanding attestation to Christian division and perhaps more pertinent, human pettiness

Wikipedia is meant to be neutral. Remove the very politically motivated description on the article for Donald J Trump State Park and put "A failed golf course made park named after the former US President Donald J Trump who tried to build it." 359AMPM (talk) 19:54, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

Possible contribution
i ask if this image and its description could be considered unusual and comedic enough in nature to be on this page User:Liance/Horngus of a Dongfish 2605:4A80:F002:2710:DC1C:99F2:337D:8502 (talk) 05:33, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- While funny and unusual, this is false and not a real article. (https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/horngus-of-a-dongfish/) ! Quwoting2 {converse} 05:40, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
