Wikipedia:Unusual articles

[[:|WP:UA]]

This page is for Wikipedians to list articles that seem a bit unusual. These articles are valuable contributions to the encyclopedia, but are somewhat odd, whimsical, or... well, something you wouldn't expect to find in Encyclopædia Britannica. We should take special care to meet the highest standards of an encyclopedia with these articles so as to not give an appearance of unprofessionality.

If you wish to add articles to this list, a broad consensus amongst contributors has identified two main guidelines. If the article in question meets one or both of these categories then it could possibly be deemed "unusual"

The article is something you would not expect to find in a standard encyclopedia.
The article contains some form of juxtaposition that most people would find unusual. eg Killer Cockroach, Henry VIII in Space, edible computers.

Note that this is a broad definition. Some articles may still be considered "unusual" even if they don't fit the guidelines above.

For unusual contributions that are not so valuable, see Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense.
