`Twas Jayjg, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and edit in the diffs: All sysop were the permablocks, And the userboxes tiffs. "Beware the vandalbots, my man! The socks that write, the trolls that catch! Revere the arbcom nerds, and ban The frumious Bandersnatch!" He took his barnstar then in hand: Each newbie then he wikistalked -- So jousted he with meatpuppetry, He disambigged, he blocked. And, as in mergist thought he stood, The vandalbot, with three reverts, Came wikifying through the wood, With fancruft in its skirts! One, two! One, two! And through and through His POV went snicker-snack! He left a stub, and with his club He went galumphing back. |

Hard to follow a bit. I also don't know what the wikipedia lexicon project is.
I'm not one to evaluate poetry. Maybe somehere on this forum is knowledgeable at poetry, maybe they studied it, maybe they if asked can make a List of a their favorite Poets. |

OK, in no particular order:William Wordsworth John Milton W B Yeats Robert Louis Stevenson Alfred Tennyson Lewis Carroll William Blake W H Davies Rudyard Kipling John Masefield Cue - long thread rubbishing some of these names and adding others? But please, don't mention Rosemary Tonks.  |
