Of the over one thousand and sixty-nine articles and counting in the Austral TSPedia there are some articles that TSP Encyclopedians have identified as being somewhat unusual. These articles are verifiable, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia, but are a bit odd, whimsical. We should take special care to meet the highest standards of an encyclopedia with these articles lest they make TSPedia appear idiosyncratic. If you wish to add an article to this list, the article in question should preferably meet one or more of these criteria:
- The article is something a reasonable person would not expect to find in a standard encyclopedia.
- The subject is a highly unusual combination of concepts, such as frankist unicorn, death from coconut, etc.
- The subject is a clear anomaly—something that defies common sense, common expectations or common knowledge, such as Government Island, Pazar am Fluss, Grovne effect, Snow in FiHami, etc.
- The subject is well-documented for unexpected notoriety or an unplanned cult following at extreme levels, such as The Shark of Izaakia or SPIT.
- The subject is a notorious hoax, such as the Lampshade syndrome or there is nothing outside the South Pacific.
- The subject might be found amusing, though serious.
- The subject is distinct amongst other similar ones.
- The article is a list or collection of articles or subjects meeting the criteria above.
This definition is not precise or absolute; some articles could still be considered unusual even if they do not fit these guidelines.
Each entry on this list should be an article on its own (not merely a section in a less unusual article) and of decent quality, and in large meeting TSPedia’s manual of style.
In this list, a star (*) indicates a featured article. A plus (+) indicates a “Good article”.
Society, Economy and law
* Grovne Suggestion | Grovne Convention? More like Grovne Suggestion... |
Losavral Irredentism memes | The entire multiverse is Losavra. |
Rohadek estate v. Ikoania | Guess there’s nothing barring a country from changing the name (and legacy) of the dead but you can’t… and we almost got banned in a country. |
Popular culture, entertainment and the arts
+ Lindenau Effect | Repeating occurrences of sighting historical figures, oftentimes in the less fun side of history, seen in the Weissersteiner city of Lindenau… Meinhard Frank, Stjepan Masic, Jakob Strasser, etc. (popularized by the internet) |
