Why this page
editAll mention of the incident has been deleted from Wikipedia following the closure of discussion by an involved editor.
But I'm convinced it will eventually be reinstated.
The discussion was somewhat lame.
- Essays were cited as if policy, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Wikipedia essays#Some problematic essays.
- In this case I would doubt that the registration is known to thousands of people. [1]] The youtube has had 303,612 views, and this figure is low because there have been several versions and that has reset the view count. I invite anyone who has watched it or the almost as popular epilogue (653,688 views) to ask themselves... do you think that thousands of people know the registration, or callsign, or not, or don't you know?
Note that the comment about doubting thousands of people was made by the same user who subsequently closed the discussion.
There is a film in the pipeline

which will make it even harder to deny that the incident is encyclopedic. Andrewa (talk) 03:10, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
