If you look closely you can see the hand of infrogmation in at least one of the examples.

Hm, should be xposted to wikipedians.

Which one was my hand in? I was guessing Iraq (I think I started a bunch of the articles about the provinces and major cities) but didn't see myself, and I'm on dialup.

Have you contributed to Wikipedia articles?

I saw your name in their diagram for "Islam".

I just made my very first Wikipedia contributions today (anonymously); I expanded the articles for "phenakistoscope", "zoetrope" and "praxinoscope", with more explanation of how they actually worked.

Thanks. I seem to have made a very minor edit to the Islam article that I'd forgotten about.

Your contributions look good. I hope to see you around the Wikipedia again some time.

Cheers, -- F.

I anxiously await your kicking my ass for my recent Wikipedia entry for Kibology comment. Should I bend over now, or later?

Just remember that you've given me a standing offer to bend over at time of my discression.

Collectable!
