Ferret legging could be deleted from Wikipedia.

Luckily, it is now safe at Encyc.

Is there any chance of getting Dwile Flonking deleted as a hoax? After all, that's real too.

I've never heard of this, but a look at the article implies that the practice takes place in the Lewes Arms in Lewes, Sussex.

The Lewes Arms is a famous pub, and is the hub of most of the oddness that eminates from Lewes. Comedian Mark Steele recently presented a radio show from Lewes which delved into the bizarre history of the pub, and the town. Thomas Paine is Lewes's most famous son, which may explain something.

I remember when the entire town of Lewes constructed a huge effigy of TV presenter Anne Robinson and set it alight on a bonfire.

Obviously this is original research, but I played it on the Isle of Sheppey in 2003!

The article is terrible, though.
