[LINK] The Scottish Wikipedia

[Stephen Loosley]

Haha .. this is the Scottish Wikipedia ..  https://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

As it happens, almost all of the Scottish Wikipedia, with more than 57,000 articles,
was written by someone who obviously has nae the slightest idea of the language.

That’s right, someone doing a bad impression of a Scottish accent, and then writing
it down phonetically, is a chief maintainer of their online Wikipedia Scottish edition.

And .. they have been doing this for the best part of a decade.

Eg: Here’s the entry for Australia and it’s not in the Scottish language. Hahahahaha!

https://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australie
