National Lampoon
I've just reverted your claim in Hippo eats dwarf on the grounds that there is a reliable source stating that this is not in National Lampoon. But just to make sure, do you actually have this magazine? If you do, please provide a page number. Better still, email me a copy of the page or put it up on a dropbox.

I downloaded a PDF collection of a whole bunch of national lampoon magazines. It's definitely in there, because that's how I knew to do a Google search for that hippo story, and came across the Wikipedia article on the matter. I'll have to see if I still have that PDF because I usually delete them after skimming through it. SeaLion572 (talk) 02:13, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

August 1988 edition. Page 35-36, depending on how the viewer labels the page number, in the lower left corner labeled "From the Las Vegas Sun:" I can send you a copy of the PDF but not sure where the drop box is,of your email. I'll try again later... SeaLion572 (talk) 08:25, 2 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I found a download myself on Internet Archive. Sorry for doubting you.  I've restored your contribution, it needs editing to remove the argumentative tone, but I'll do that later.
 * To email someone on Wikipedia, you go to their user page and click on "email this user" in the sidebox. You won't be able to add any attachments unless/until they reply to you which will give you their direct email address.  I would have emailed you straight away, but you don't seem to have registered an email address on Wikipedia.  Dropbox is a way of passing information used by people who don't want to use email for privacy or security reasons. SpinningSpark 09:19, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. Yes please edit the information as you see fit. I like knowledge to be shared and accurate, so I'm happy to see it updated. SeaLion572 (talk) 18:20, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * No, thank you for finding this out. It is information that makes Wikipedia what it is, not getting the right kind of dashes everywhere. SpinningSpark 18:24, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
