• Where is the discussion of Wikipedia being "hit by the Streisand effect?"Edison (talk) 04:23, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia was not literally hit "hit by the Streisand effect", but something related to the Streisand effect was featured on Wikipedia. I'd rather not go into Gilbatrarpedia stuff in FC — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:29, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
• Under Streisand Effect in Featured Pictures, doesn't "phenomena" have to be "phenomenon" as it's discussing only one thing? - a boat that can float! (watch me float!) 12:16, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

• Yeah, that's right. Fixed. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:27, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

• No mention of the Streisand effect being the basis for there being no centralized revdel/oversight request pages? — Francophonie&Androphilie (Je vous invite à me parler) 22:29, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
  • OR ;-) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:13, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
    • Nuh-uh! ;) See WP:REVDEL#How to request Revision Deletion. — Francophonie&Androphilie (Je vous invite à me parler) 23:22, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
      • Hmm... shame putting it here could be seen as OR. I'd hate to have to block myself for "unconstructive content" — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:31, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
        • Haha it's just a strange coincidence - I only learned about this term last week, after reading the revdel policy. When I saw this headline, I assumed it was going to be about us screwing up in that regard! — Francophonie&Androphilie (Je vous invite à me parler) 23:36, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
          • That may have been where I learned the term too, actually. Don't remember. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:54, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
