Via a PC in Wick Library (Ordnance Survey grid reference ND362507) this page was created in Wikipedia in 2005 circa Imbolc in the northern hemisphere, Lughnasadh in the southern.
The creator was born beside Hadrian's Wall (NZ228646). He is both male and very heterosexual, and enjoys wearing the kilt or toga. He listens to too much Radio 4.

[edit] A view on Wikipedia
The more he works on Wikipedia, the more the creator sees that is wrong with it, largely due to poor research, and the greater the personal work and expense involved in trying to put it right.
He is beginning to feel, November 2007, that the flame may not be worth the candle.
