So I was trolling around on my favorite linkspews… looking for cool stuff to add to this blog, and I came across this interesting comment:

“This Wikipedia article is longer than the entry on William Shakespeare.”

So…this article? Lightsaber combat. Yep. You read that right.

And just to verify his claim… I copied the text of both articles….

Yep. Lightsaber Combat wins by 30%.
