It's sad that this has to exist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.125.59.1 ( talk) 21:31, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
I hereby propose that nonconstructive edits made solely for the sake of an xkcd meme be officially called "randallism" ( Randall + vandalism). Idea from an xkcd forum post. — DragonHawk ( talk| hist) 14:56, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure it's actually a malamanteau — Preceding unsigned comment added by Craisintheroof ( talk • contribs) 01:34, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
Given the type of editor we're dealing here, I would strongly recommend not including any specific examples of what not to do at all. I'll leave the one that's been re-added back in for now, but if the article in question suffers for it then I'll be removing it again.

I think there should be a Wikipedia administrator whose duty is to check xkcd.com whenever a new comic is posted, and then immediately lock any Wikipedia articles related to that day's comic. Comics are posted at midnight on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, Eastern time. This would be fairly easy for an admin in a different time zone. For example, for an admin living in California, he'd just have to check xkcd at 9 pm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Navigatr85 ( talk • contribs) 17:44, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
@ NealCruco: regarding this edit, don’t you mean “not been updated since April 29, 2011”? or am I missing something on the blog? — DSGalaktos ( talk) 18:17, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
