My suggestion! Take parts from each of those article (ie the list of chukc facts, the repetive "weeeeeee", ect. Ragglefraggleking Is Eating Your Bagels 15:44, 14 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)
I think it's goal is to be the longest article, but also maintain some form of content. Because the top 4 articles in length have no actual reason to read. I just like to add stuff here if I have an idea or just am bored. --T3 15:48, 14 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)
Yeah. Let's add some content - maybe some info about long articles. --Galanoth 16:05, 14 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)
I added some funny stuff about drugs. --T3 16:58, 14 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)

Without the World's Longest Sentence (which I wrote, by the way), this article would be nothing. Nothing. —rms talk 04:25, 16 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)

Probably. --Galanoth 06:24, 16 Jumbly 2009 (UTC)

Wow. I actually quite like this article. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 19:57, 16 Arply 2010 (UTC)

Actually[edit source]

n² - 10 = n + 2n

n² - 10 = 3n

-n² -n²

10 = 2n

÷2 ÷2

5 = n

is

Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle n² - 10 = 3n}

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle n² -3n - 10 = 0}

/insert into quadratic



Check your math next time. —rms talk 05:27, 24 Arply 2010 (UTC)

Also, you can take this alternative factoring method:

n² - 10 = n + 2n

n² - 10 = 3n

n² -3n - 10 = 0

(n - 5)(n + 2) = 0

n = 5, -2

Geesh. —rms talk 05:32, 24 Arply 2010 (UTC)

  1. Fuck you.
  2. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I can get into any advanced class I want except math. I've always been the best in mainstream classes but I suck at it compared to everything else. But realistically, I made the problem with the intent of the number being 5. I never thought of anything else. Technically I'm not wrong but I'm not completely right. Logic, eh? --T3 15:40, 24 Arply 2010 (UTC)

I know[edit source]

...this was a troll edit, but it at least made me smirk slightly. -- Hindleyak  Converse?blogClick here! 18:54, 15 Octodest 2010 (UTC)

Accident[edit source]

I accidentally changed the article to its first edit. Now I'll need a mainframe to return it to its proper form.

6^123456?[edit source]

Someone on a past revision of this article had posted the digits of pow(6,123456) claiming to have calculated it with Python. It was wrong though so here's the correct digits. I made it with a small handcoded C program. They really are the correct digits. Simplest test: copy the digits to a file and wc. Then calculate ceil(123456*log10(6)). You'll get the same size.

Test 2: Using Python or anything else supporting bigints compute this number and match. If it cant go till that size calc. to a lower power of six, (say 123456/n) and then raise a number made from the first few digits of that number to the power of n. The digits you get should match with the initial digits of my result.

It's too late in the night so I'll be able format this into a line-by-line dump only by tommorrow.
