Wikipedia:Unusual requests

This page contains material that is kept because it is considered humorous.
Such material is not meant to be taken seriously.

A number of curious or strange requests occasionally appear on the Wikipedia Village pump and other community forums; apparently some visitors have Wikipedia confused with other, unrelated sites. Many times, such questions are posted by people seeking information about a particular subject, and are quite appropriate for the reference desk, so if you encounter such a question on the pump or elsewhere, please try to be helpful and direct the questioner to the reference desk instead.

However, some requests are just so off-the-wall that they would be inappropriate even on the reference desk. In keeping with the spirit of archiving other Silly things, this page lists some of those strange requests for the purpose of a little harmless amusement.

Names and contact information have been removed for the sake of protecting the innocent and/or confused.

Remote possibilities

My friends and I were recently (3/2/04) playing Milton Bradley's game "Remote Possibilities" and noticed one question regarding who recieved the most Oscar (Academy) nominations. Until the 2004 awards held on 3/1/04, Titanic had the most nominations in history, but it no longer does, thereby making your game incorrect, by stating Titanic as the answer. I am a huge fan, i know two other people who have this game, and we want to know if you will be making a new version.

Bootleg copy

Hi:

I recently purchased a DVD from E-bay that was a grouping of banned cartoons. Several studios were on this copy including yours. It was a burned copy and they are advertising it as new. The listing was called Banned & World War II caroons Vol. 1 and Vol 2. I did not know if you knew about this but thought you would like to know.

Since you have obtained a bootleg copy of a Wikitoonpedia Cartoon, Wikipedia will punish you for theft. Think of how Jimbo drew 500 000 frames by hand for those cartoons! Alx xlA 00:51, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

student exchange

Hello,

My name is [name deleted] and I am a student at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I am enquiring about the student exchange program. I have been trying to locate information on this subject for some time now and have recieved none. My Uma lives near Ruhr and i am thinking about living with her for the school year and getting transfered to your university. I do not know if your university deals with the University of Manitoba in this way so this is the reason i am writing you. If you could get back to me with any information on this subject it would be greatly appreciated. My e-mail address is [email deleted]

Sincerely, [name deleted]

The University of Wikipedia does not currently have an exchange program with your university. However, if you want to organize one we would be willing to participate. Bensaccount 15:30, 19 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Bad tire

Where do I post a complaint? I have a tire with a bubble on the side wall, and your agent (Discount Tire) is claimimg it is road hazard.

What do you think?

I talked to my psychologist Monday and told him that perhaps I would do better getting in the Engineering field. He told me I might do better with a degree in Veterinary Technology. He knows I am better at science (Chemistry, Biology, and Medicine) then I am at Math, and getting a Bachelor's degree in engineering is more relient on higher math then veterinary technology. What do you think? And what are the advantages/disadvantages in being in these fields and getting an education in them (through comparing the two for the advantages/disadvantages)?

The engineering I want to take in school is Electrical/Electronic and Mechanical engineering.

Thank you.

HELP!!!!! Anybody have a good remedy for massive welts and itching?!?!?!?!?!

Forgive me if this is covered somewhere or this isn't the proper forum but I'm squirming and yelping from intense itching and almost body wide welts from bites. I live in Florida (am hoping to move to a drier climate, at least less mosquitoe infested soon) and this season is particularly bad. I've tried ice, cold water, alcohol (applied to the skin) benadryl spray and am still covered in welts and going nuts. Any help would be appreciated. I'm at (e-mail removed) or call (phone number removed) (I'll call you back and reimburse any long distance charges).

My Dears,

I want to know which ragam was to playback in a wedding VIDEO CD.

And tell me where i will get.

I'm sorry, but it doesn't serve the purpose of an encyclopedia to tell you which ragam was played on a CD. Besides, we don't know which CD you're referring to.--Siva 20:32, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I think the humor in this lies less in the quirkiness of the request (and the lack of understanding on the part of the writer about what we do) than in the laughable English. (It should be noted that the name with which the posting was originally signed was an English one. Obviously an Indian with poor English trying to pass off as someone he's not.)--Siva 19:54, 16 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm I think the guy had a legitimate (if somewhat unusual) query. My guess is the guy is a wedding videographer, shooting a south indian wedding for the first time and is looking for a classical soundtrack to play over the video. So he is looking for the name of a ragam which would be appropriate as a soundtrack for a wedding and wants to know which (audio) CD he can find that ragam in. --Spundun 03:10, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

adjust headlights

From Wikipedia:Village pump (assistance).

I have a 95 oldsmobile ciera with low miles. Does anyone know how to adjust the headlights on this vehicle. It takes bulbs and I can not find any adjusting screwes. The book shows how to adjust with seald beams but not with bulbs and there are no adjustments where it shows for sealed beams

Variety

Would it be possible to provide a bit more variety rather than repeating the same old content every few months. Examples would be the older movies such as Convoy and Smokey and the Bandit. I have been a Foxtel customer for four years and keep watching the same programs repeatedly. More Australian content would also be appreciated such as the old Paul Hogan and Norman Gunston shows. I am also appalled by the lack of Western Australian (Eagles) football available to Sydney residents.

Thanks! An entirely innocent text in proper place can create a dood deal of laugh. However, Willy on Wheels, the King of Internet, unfortunately has no control of TV-based media yet. Fortunately, here, on Wiki, you'll never get the same content again. -- CP/M^comm |Wikipedia Neutrality Project| 07:27, 12 August 2006 (UTC) (P.S. Delete as needed).[reply]
