I'm inclined to think that a list of epitaphs is not a good idea.
I'd agree, I guess as wikipedia is not a dictionary this entry should be deleted.Alternativly it does provide for another avenue into the Biographies!
I also agree that a list of epitaphs is suboptimal, but I wouldn't delete it. Hopefully as it develops someone might put together a history of how epitaphs have been viewed and used over time, which would be a very interesting article. A list would provide material for that article.
That's a constant difficulty of working on Wikipedia. Almost any subject, however remote, has the potential of eventually gaining an interesting and informative article. Which leads me to the observation that the Wikipedia will *always* have stubs. But imagine what arcane, hidden corners of Knowledge will be explored. --Dmerrill
I deleted the weird news story. As per my invisible source comment, Ananova has been known to pull stories out of their rear ends, so I say this goes until it can be confirmed by another independent news source. --Gus 00:24, 2005 Jan 7 (UTC)
