Wiki Graffiti in New York’s Subway
Posted 8 Jan, 2008 under Culture by Chris Baskind
Check the “citation needed” sticker that’s been plastered on this poster:

You can tell wikispeak has gotten under our cultural skin when it starts turning up in New York subway graffiti.
Thanks to our rockin’ Digg commenters, we’ve got a detail of this poster. It’s “Wikiffiti” from Bekathwia at Flickr.

That’s freakin hilarious.
Advertisements are not graffiti
it’s called wikiffiti.
read the boing boing article at: http://www.boingboing.net/2008/01/02/wikiffiti-stickers-t.html

Not in this case, but the [citation needed] sticker sure is.
Durrrr, you’re a complete moron.
While paying respects to the almighty wiki, this is actually from a webcomic by xkcd: http://xkcd.com/285/
i bet someone cites it.

It would be great if someone cited it with a sticker under the poster
looks like it’s from the 49th street station. (N/W/R)
Oh man, xkcd for the friggin’ WIN.
If your going to post a pic like this… for GODS SAKE!!!… crop the image so you a ACTUALLY read the thing that is supposed to be so funny. Thanks.
Funny Funny Stuff
Thanks for the lead on the Wikiffiti detail at Flickr, Diggers. We’ve added it.
@Apex Blue:
If you’re (not your) going to make a post like that… for GODS SAKE!!!… look at all the images so you ACTUALLY see the thing that is supposed to be funny.
I know its difficult, but there is TWO whole pictures you need to look at, one a wide shot showing the whole area so you can get a feel for the surroundings and then a close up giving you the details of the funny parts.
I took the liberty of making an emoticon out of that particular comic.
