So those of you who read the Top Picks section...

http://www.cracked.com/article_17557_top-picks-july.html

Know that with every episode we try to feature a truly insane/bizarre/arcane/"who would possibly bother to write that" Wikipedia page, or page section. For instance, this section on Jughead's hat:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jughead_Jones#Jughead.27s_hat

But there is no reason for us to keep this project to ourselves. If you spot any such Wikipedia pages, reply with them here and we'll give you a shout out from the Top Picks if we use yours.

I know it was all over Digg, so I'm not sure if this was used or mentioned somewhere already, but Gropecunt Lane was a featured Wikipedia page on July 9th.  This one falls under the "holy crap they have a page that says gropecunt in the name" category.

The 44th largest page on Wikipedia is Tennis performance timeline comparison (women). I'll let the article speak for itself:

Quote
When completed, this article will present in a tabular form the career tennis Grand Slam, World Hard Court Championships and Olympic singles results of every woman who has reached the singles final of at least one Grand Slam, World Hard Court Championships or Olympic tournament during her career. The Grand Slam tournaments are the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.

EDIT: While rummaging through the article archive, I saw that Matt Blair's The 8 Most Needlessly Detailed Wikipedia Entries article from a couple of years ago mentioned this page.  Sorry, Matt; I only remembered the ass shot of Anna Kournakova.

I have yet to find a more ridiculously large page devoted to a relatively obscure video game side-kick.

Along that theme, here's (potentially NSFW) a page about snowballing (complete with tactful illustration).

Just pretend that she's drinking a banana milkshake, and everything will be okay.

Armies and Hosts of Middle-Earth Warfare. The content is ridiculous, yes, but the number and the detail of the references makes it a bit insane. I've seen less comprehensive references in scientific journal papers.

oh canada your nicknames are hilarious.

and dont hit the random button on wikipedia looking for cool posts, there are alot of small communities in the world that have wiki pages

The entry on conservapedia was far less exciting then i would have hoped

The movie Alien Vs. Predator.  Now having an entry for any movie is pretty typical.  The bizarre thing is how the A v P article somehow attained "featured" status as one of the best written articles on Wikipedia.

Here's one on National Socialist Black Metal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Black_Metal

For those who might not know what it is, it's black metal with the intent to be heard by Nazis. What I think makes this article special is the fact that there's a section devoted to "Fascist Satanism".

There are quite detailed lists on people who died in an unusual manner that make for an interesting (and sometimes unsettling) read.
