The Wikipedia page that my mystery admirer wrote about me has been nominated for deletion. Apparently, "the subject of the article may not satisfy the notability guideline for biographies." In other words, I am not important enough.
Bjarni is unsympathetic. He says it's amazing I ever got a page written about me in the first place — am I sure it wasn't my mum who wrote it? Yes, I'm sure! At least, I think I'm sure. Hmmph. I wish I'd never had a stupid Wikipedia page to begin with. Now I understand how Pluto felt when all of a sudden it wasn't a planet anymore.

Don't worry! You're still my favourite ginger.
ReplyDeleteOh, wai...
Are you 'wicked' or something then ... I know you're a ginger but still
ReplyDeleteAh nuts. You having a Wickipedia page gave me hope for the sanity of this world.
ReplyDeleteyou're still a star to us, annie.
ReplyDeleteI called the Pluto naysayers Plutopoopers. Down with the Rhiannonpoopers!
ReplyDelete*warm blonky glow*
ReplyDeletePlease set up wackipedia (when you're done with faceblonk) and we can all have entries.
ReplyDeleteEr, why does 'entries' sound sooo wrong?
Now, are you SURE you didn't write it yourself?!
ReplyDeleteYes! I had thought about adding all my achievements to it (like the Young Envinormentalist of the Year Award that I won when I was 12) but you have to register to edit, and then it says who put the new bits in and everybody would know it was me.
ReplyDeleteFacebonk is going very slowly. I'm still trying to sell the name to the sex blonking community.
Well, I think it is our sacred duty to add more info, so that the saps at Wikipedia know what a groovy chick you are. Come on everyone. Get wiki-ing! (Or whatever the verb is.)
ReplyDeleteIncidentally, your secret admirer seems to know a heck of a lot about Bangladeshi cricketers...
ReplyDeleteThis Wikipedia entry is too funny and very clever. Whomever made it, congrats. Shame it's on the deletion process!
ReplyDeleteAnnie you mean, you just learned you're not a planet?
:D
Delete you from Wikipedia?! Those gits at Wikipedia will feel really dumb when you hit the big time. They'll be sorry then, mark my words.
ReplyDeleteIn the meantime, I know a guy who can have them killed.
Is it Twenty Major, Fat Sparrow? Because he has already offered to kill Sid Trotter for me.
ReplyDeleteI don't know anybody who knows a lot about Bangladeshi cricketers. It must be a "red herring".
I'm very excited about this whole Facebonk thing after talking to Bjarni about its possibilities all morning. I picture us as millionaires, like those guys who sold YouTube to Google (of course we will give you a slice of the profits, Tim). And then he said, "but I'm not helping you with any of the technical side because it's too complicated and not really worth it."
Not worth it?! What is not worth being a dot com millionaire?!
What, twenty has offered to kill me. Now there's a shock, it was only the other day that he offered to 'take me out' - I didn't think he liked me that much ...... but now its becoming clearer (gulp)
ReplyDeleteWiki has no taste.
ReplyDeleteI never understood all the fuss about Pluto not being a planet. Was it only me that knew he was a dog all along?
I was just wondering how you realised you had a Wikipedia page.
ReplyDeleteIt has never crossed my mind to see if I have one, until now...
...nope haven't got one. Huff!
Now that's cool!
ReplyDeleteWell who'd want to be a silly old planet anyway? Much more fun to be a star - always shining brightly and admired by millions of people. But completely oblivious to all the jealous sneers in the tabloids. And no worries about cellulite....
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad. I've been there. I made a Wikipedia page for myself once, which linked me sexually with Kiera Knightley. Sadly the entry was deleted within a fortnight.
ReplyDeleteJames, I realised I had one because somebody left an anonymous comment on my blonk saying, "hey everybody, who wants to contribute to Annie's Wikipedia page?!" and nobody did.
ReplyDeleteI think Chris has identified a potentially fatal flaw in Facebonk. I will, of course, be using it to detail how I had that Lucy Liu begging for seconds.
ReplyDeleteBut Facebonk will work like Facebook in that the person you claim to have boffed has to check a box confirming it.
ReplyDelete"We met randomly", "We went to school together", "I don't even know this person" etc.
I'm sorry to hear you were nominated for deletion (sounds like something from Dr. Who and the Cyberman - "Delete. Delete." - but that's the nerd in me speaking). I often wondered about posting a page about myself in Wikipedia, or making someone up altogether, just to see if anyone was paying attention about people being able to post anything. You have my sympathies.
ReplyDeleteActually when I googled "Annie, blog, dublin" combination blogger.com and wikipedia were the first two the results showed, so I visited both. It's a pity they deleted the bit about you. Fear not friends! Wikipedia will come back crawling when you are a world-famous writer, film-maker, musician, photographer, blonk extraordinaire and faceblonk multi-millionare. Then, and only then you can smile and say "Pffrt, thanks, but no thanks."
