Wikipedia’s article
What began as a friendly correction to a few friends — blogged by JOHO to his world-renowned water cooler
— has turned into a battle for the very soul of the articleless
pastiche. Don’t fret; I won’t give up fighting the good fight, on
The Longest Now or The anything else’s turf, as long as there is breath
left in me. Once more, for the record:
Wikipedia takes no article. Neither does Wikimedia, Mediawiki, or kerfuffle.
EB, OED, and ACS all may and often do
because when you expand their acronyms or full names, you find a common
noun within that proper noun which itself would normally take an
article.
