Wikipedia:WikiProject Weirdness
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a new Wiipedia project created solely for the purpose of collecting and shepherding those Wikipedia articles that are unlikely to be found in any "Britannica" type encyclopedia. The members of this project believe that the coverage of offbeat and unusual subjects in Wikipedia is a positive attribute, one that makes Wikipedia superior to any Encyclopedia that considers itself too "good" to include those subjects.

Please feel free to expand this list (alphabetically) with the addition of topics that the "traditional" encyclopedia just won't have:
- Crushing by elephant
