A fact from Monty the meerkat appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 15 March 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The image is admittedly (and pretty obviously) a Photoshop - am I right in thinking that this isn't appropriate for Wikipedia? If the image were circulated when the hoax was believed, it would have significance, but it's only a couple weeks old. 64.238.164.98 (talk) 16:22, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
A photoshop and a bad one to boot: the camera is mirror-image. If this is one of the ones used in the hoax, what idiot was taken by it? If it isn't, why is it in the article?

The image was made to make the article funnier because it is a funny article, but it was removed now to satisfy some boring :-) readers.--Mbz1 (talk) 16:48, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
