I of course understand the joke, but I'll give someone else the pleasure of explaining it...

The LLM answer was deleted even before I posted the link. As mentioned the header is always a joke, and in this case it's referencing that, but over the next few days I expect that link to become increasingly useful.

I mean, it wasn't deleted before you posted the link, because I clicked the link and saw it, but I do see that it's been updated now.

I mean the actual text that was LLM generated was deleted. The header had been left mentioning it as a joke. Note the discussion section:

"... But I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume this mostly vapid explanation is as good as no explanation, and remove it for now. 108.162.216.132 05:42, 2 January 2025 (UTC)"
