[edit] Prediction by date

For the date of creation of the last article, see my predictions at Wikipedia:Eleventy-billion_pool#2038. Of course, we'll have pretty hefty servers by then, maybe they'll cope...-gadfium 23:57, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia will change its name??

If Wikipedia changes its name, what would it change to and what reason would there be?? Georgia guy 20:36, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Of all the humorous pools for the media to pick up on...

Wikipedia hits the million mark:

"And in the event that Wikipedia goes under, the earth ends or the site is finally completed "with the sum total of all current and future human knowledge", users have set up a last topic pool with suggestions including "Three easy steps to building your own nuclear weapon", "Quantum black hole safety" and "How to delete the internet in one simple keystroke"."

Congrats to God of War, Endomion, and Pellaken. I like how they're all science entries too. Melchoir 08:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Sure, go ahead and congratulate them :-/ 02:51, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't understand. Melchoir 07:06, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

I created this page and all of the quotes in that article on the topic of this page were from me, with the exception of the three votes. --Cyde Weys 06:12, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Ah, indeed you did. Well, congrats to you too! Melchoir 07:14, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No last article

What about the belief that there won't be a last article on Wikipedia. Some people might think that that is the case. 64.192.107.242 20:19, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

That doesn't work, if only for thermodynamic and cosmological reasons. Melchoir 20:58, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm impressed by the phrase "There may undoubtedly be". That's a sentiment that I think I'm certain I've never encountered before. According to Google it may be found in 75 places. Abu Amaal 01:35, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
