Additional Source

Hello, I added in another citation to the article to expand on the introduction of internet memes. I added a quotation to the opening section that expands a little bit more on where memes come from.

An internet meme is often a "modifications or spoofs add to the profile of the original idea thus turning it into a phenomenon that transgresses social and cultural boundaries".

The citation is Bauckhage, C. (2011, July). Insights into internet memes. In ICWSM (pp. 42-49).

Messed up reference

The second reference for this article is so long that it covers the other references. The link is also doesn't lead anywhere — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.138.206.55 (talk) 23:52, 24 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing it out, I've removed the URL portion. Schazjmd (talk) 00:24, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Maximum length of a TikTok

In the "Short video" section of the "History" section the article claims, that the maximum length of a TikTok is 3 minutes. That claim is now untrue, because TikTok changed the maximum length of a TikTok to 10 minutes. 2A00:F41:1C54:9AB8:6EA0:FF1C:3E90:8774 (talk) 13:06, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure? They could still be 3:00 in length. Don’t use TikTok due to security concerns, so someone else might check.2001:8003:B1B8:BF00:DC70:AC4A:4821:E057 (talk) 11:41, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lacking hyperlink

In the "Social movements" section of the "By context" section there are hyperlinks to articles on Reddit and 4chan, but not Tumblr 2A00:F41:1C54:9AB8:6EA0:FF1C:3E90:8774 (talk) 13:18, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Short "See also" section

The "See also" section is short, especially for such a long article. Also from all the memes, referenced in the article, there is only one featured in the "see also section" 2A00:F41:1C54:9AB8:6EA0:FF1C:3E90:8774 (talk) 13:36, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
