I take it from the emoticon that that was a negative comment?
Not sure what happened to you. I note that Aaron edited the OP.
Aaron? Was there some dodgy code/script embedded in the links? I checked them first before posting and they were fine.
Didn't touch the links. What are they supposed to be exactly? I'm totally clueless as to what we're supposed to be looking at.

Well, the links work for me. They should lead to a German spoof of Wikipedia, called "Stupidedia": first link is their entries for "Pele" (check their list of Popes); the second is "Paul Gascoigne" (spot the Beckham joke).
Can you read German or does it appear in English for you?
I can read German but, according to their Wikipedia entry (yes yes, I know), there is a Stupidedia English site. There is a Wikilink to the site, but unfortunately, it's translated into English by those Google machines, and the translation is, at best, poor... at the worst, terrible. Most of it in their English translation is nonsensical.
Google translator usually does the job, but yes it was terrible.
