Why is there an animated GIF on the side of the page? While cute as hell, it messes up the usual orientation of the entire article to screen size, and it's not like it's a short article... Please find this thing a better home. UpdateNerd (talk) 17:36, 28 February 2026 (UTC)Reply
OK, this is apparently called "birthday mode" and it can be turned off in the Appearance section of the site preferences. Although I still don't know why it showed up on this article but not others. UpdateNerd (talk) 18:12, 28 February 2026 (UTC)Reply
