People are always posting links for interesting Wiki links but they get lost pretty easy.

Some of my favorites are not the articles themselves, but the records of them:

- [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:LAME]Lamest Wikipedia Edit Wars ever[/url]
- [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DAFT]Deleted Articles with Freaky Titles[/url]
[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:UA]Unusual Articles[/url]

For example:
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_buffalo_Buffalo_buffalo_buffalo_buffalo_Buffalo_buffalo.[/url]

Or...
- [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%46%75%63%6b%69%6e%67,_Austria]Some city in Austria...[/url]

i mostly just use Wikipedia to look up facts on cars.
I guess my favorite page is

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

cause I've looked at it more then any other article. it is the eppicenter of my favorite car company.
