Hmm.. That is correct. There is no such thing as random, or randomness Who has randonness locked? and why? Is this related to the Muro Bot? Thank You. -mapsurfer@yahoo.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.66.233.207 (talk) 15:57, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Umm, a question comes to mind, as to why exactly this page even exists...

A: because there are many notable things which are, in some way or another, named "random." Next? --Lenoxus 08:01, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Random Article[edit]

Perhaps a link to Special:Random should go here as well (some people don't have the common sense to look at the menu on the left) 24.88.85.21 (talk) 03:01, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit repeatedly reverted[edit]

My edit has been reverted multiple times by multiple people claiming it was vandalism. I am unlucky enough to share this IP with the rest of my school, and some of my peers have in the past vandalized Wikipedia. However, I personally do not. Obviously the editors in question could not have known this, but now that they do I expect to be taken seriously. In my reverts I gave reasons for my edit, and these were ignored by the editors who continued to revert back. I am simply asking how the edit was vandalism and not a valid example of randomness. It appears that the editors in question have simply dismissed my claims, and consciously teamed up on me until the three revert rule forced me to make this request on the discussion page. I hope this is not truly the case. 75.68.50.138 (talk) 18:03, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If we allowed any random example of randomness on the page, it would quickly be filled with unhelpful examples that would overshadow the useful information on that page. If your intent was to be helpful, it by definition isn't vandalism, but at the same time, it was also not something that should be included. Monty845 18:13, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you so much for clarifying this for me. Your reply makes complete sense and I understand why it could have been mistaken for vandalism then. 75.68.50.138 (talk) 18:19, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
