French fancies

22 Feb 2011

Disappointment for fans of bad Wikipedia pages, as this week the Château de Versailles
appointed its first Wikipedia intern. Benoît Evellin, who (according to Wikipedia, so this might not be true) likes role-playing games, trains and the cuisine of Brittany, will organise contributors to improve the pages about Versailles.

In case Ben wants to include us, we’d point out that Louis XIV was a regular contributor of helpdesk anecdotes to Backbytes, and once submitted an amusing Haiku about Ethernet cabling. That’s “fact” as in “not true”, but that’s why Wiki­pedia can be better than truth.
