Yes, it seems that some people just need a dumbed-down Wikipedia. I was browsing the Japanese Wikiwiki, when I noticed that the main page was also written in English and simple English! Surely this must be a translation error, but no!

Alas, the 10000+ articles that make up Simple English Wikiwiki are all dumbed-down quite severly, almost to the point of putting "Route 66 is a road" as the only text on the page. In place of 'Random Article', it introduces 'Show any page".

Check it out yourself, and post links to particularly hilarious sites!

Main Page - Wikipedias are places where people work together to write encyclopedias in different languages.

http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House

It is called the White House because it is white in colour.

HAHA!

I cannot think of any reason for this wiki other than humor... seriously, who's going to go there and think, "Ohh, I thought the colour was just a coincidence!"

I don't think it's humour...

It's endorsed by the Wikimedia Foundation...

I'm guessing it's the WikiPedia for kids.

Have a look at the page for Sydney: http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney

The way it's written, it's like for primary school kids, no?

lol!

Quick, is there an entry for 'sex'?

Yep!

And it's surprisingly long! LOL

"...is hat humans and animals do to make babies. Sometimes people do it for other reasonds than making babies..."

ROFL!

hehehe

From today's "Did you know...":

• ... that rabbits are found in many parts of the world?
• ... that in France there are 36,781 communes?
• ... that Thomas Jefferson was the 3rd president of the United States?

"In algebra, adding z to y (or y plus z) is written as

y + z

. Subtracting z from y (or y minus z) is written as

y − z

."

XD wow

Speaking of things for idiots:
