All I've come up with is a half-formed joke about how human females really are intrinsically attractive after all.
While an appealing hypothesis, if that were the case I would expect roughly the same percentage for the general public. The wiki of a million lies suggests the actual rate for the general public is in the low single digits.
As clever as this phrase is, it is tragically ambiguous. I'm guessing 65% chance Wikipedia, 30% RationalWiki, 3% our local wiki, 2% other. How did I do?
I meant Wikipedia. I've actually never heard the phrase applied to any other wiki. It's certainly not original to me.
Thanks!
None of the other wikis you list are big enough to have more than maybe 75,000 lies.
Are you counting talk pages? I'd expect those to have a higher density of lies than the main namespace.
Sure, but I'd expect that smaller wikis have exponentially less talk, because there's fewer people to do the talking.
