Most Wiki'd Item? HTTP 404

<< < (2/2)

justice:
maybe some botnet or virus or spider that guesses wikipedia pages and it actually means 404 pages were returned?

Eóin:
Perhaps but HTTP 404 is a proper Wikipedia page explaining the error, and a Google for even just 404 turns up that page as 1st result so my instincts are that something on those days prompted alot of people to look up what 404 actually means when seen online.

Fred Nerd:
Facebook/myspace probably went under.... those users would be stumped.

They'd go into shock withdrawl symptoms

Lol, somehow I could see a huge group of people all logging onto facebook/myspace at the same time, and they all see 404. "What the heck does that mean?"

...now I'm curious to see what the wiki article says, I have never read it.

This may be a quick starting urban myth but I heard it was in Eastenders - look it up if you're not a Brit - someone called someone else 404, so perhaps all the carrot crunchers were looking it up?
