I started editing wikipedia in 2002, when there were just a few hundred editors, and you could still measure the zeitgeist by trolling Recent Changes. I used to get very annoyed at how much time people wasted editing 'List of songs whose title is not in the lyrics'. The early years were rocky.

Ha, that page. I haven't looked at it for years and years but it used to be one of my favorite examples of Wikipedia nonsense -- the page was created in order to have "Bohemian Rhapsody" on it: that was the entire purpose of its existence. But eventually a few editors decided "Bohemian Rhapsody" didn't count and started edit wars whenever someone tried to add it back in. Good times.
