The synergy of cannabinol and nicotine is such that users mixing them risk quickly getting addicted to nicotine and becoming part of the at-risk population of smokers (WHO 2003 estimate: 5.3 million deaths per year attributed to cigarette smoking). Many young persons don't know that the wrapper leaf from a cigar, used to wrap a cigarette-sized dosage of cannabis, contains nicotine.

It has been alleged that since the early 90's tobacco-marketing companies or organizations fed funding, promotion opportunities or other rewards to rap singers who included references to "blunts" in song lyrics. The presence of artists with names like "Tu-Pac" or "Cool" speaks for itself.

A massive wall of text arguing over whether a a word invented in a joke about wikipedia editors from a webcomic needs an article and what form such an article should take. Of course this is probably what the author of the comic wanted and he is probably fuelling the debate through several alt. accounts.

the important part of farting is that it's available under a license that's free (as in freedom)

wouldn't using a non-creative-commons photo (like this press photo) on wikipedia be covered under fair use?

they do poo poo like that all the time provided it's for strictly non-commercial use

They won't allow a "free use" image unless there is zero possibility whatsoever that a CC/whatever image can exist. also encourages exhibitionist dick shots instead of actual medical diagrams

I'd like to reduce the font in the left part of the template, because the text currently stretches a little beyond the standard size of similar templates. On any page containing this template among many standard templates, this template will stand out. I'd like to reduce the footprint of this template.

There is nothing wrong with it standing out, nor it not being a "standard size". It is not important that every template be the same size at all. --Mistress Selina Kyle (Α⇔Ω ¦ ⇒✉) 23:58, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps there are many more Wikipedian Aspies who do not use this template because it is too loud. You may not feel there is anything wrong, I considered that there might be. -- Ec5618 00:14, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Year 2038 problem

After 2038, it turns out that some computers are also going to run into date issues in the year 292,277,026,596, well after the predicted end of the universe. Which means we've still got some time to discuss whether the article should include a sentence that says "this is not widely regarded as a pressing issue".[89] [90] [91] [92] Apparently saying that it didn't matter itself didn't matter, because the phrase was deleted when nobody was watching and nobody even seemed to notice. And then the reference to the problem was deleted as well, so if you're reading this after finding a copy of Wikipedia amidst the fallout of the war caused by the Year 292,277,026,596 problem, the Wikimedia Foundation extends its condolences.

The Blue Spider is in reality a young political consulant residing in Central Michigan.

He is a first generation American citizen.

He hates Wikipedia.

He edits Wikipedia pages only to improve on people's knowledge and not for the sake of Wikipedia.

His topical weblog is Apologies Demanded.

He obviously rocks hard and is incredibly unappreciated.
