The article of the day for 12 November 2010 on the German language Wikipedia is Futanari. I think there has been some tangential discussion here on WR about an image used in that article: (I would place it here, but it may not be safe for work if your work doesn't involve cartoon penises).

I think it is funny that they actually scrounged up enough quality info and sources and such to get an article on dickgirls to FAC.

Ahh, ze Germanz; esteemed in individual, wretched in general.

Presumably Jimbo will express his outrage and do nothing soon enough.

Actually, the surprising thing is that the pornopedia articles never get featured on en.wp. Is there an obscure policy about that somewhere?

Is it really so hard to figure out that this goes in the Articles Forum?

It takes longer to write articles when you only use one hand.

And the non-dominant one, at that.

Actually sometimes editing Wikipedia is more like wanking with the non-dominant hand...

You can all just save your come-backs for that. Too easy.
