It has been widely believed that Macintosh computers are immune to malware, such as viruses,[359][360] though recent developments are correcting this belief.[361][362] Although much less frequently than computers running Microsoft Windows, they can and do get malware.[363]

quote:This is a list of works in terms of length it would be inappropriate to exclude something that meet requirement simply because someone has a personal problem with the type of literary work. You are basically asking Wikipedia editors to remove content simply because it doesn't meet your standard of notability. You seem to be unable to rationalize what WP:NOTESAL states; the individual entries on the list need not be notable enough to have their own article as long as they meet the criteria for a notable list. The works meet the criteria for the list in terms of length and are not serial works. What your argument boils down to is that you have an issue with it fanfiction and sharing a list that notes their length. Let's not be so selective and picky with what type of works which meet criteria be included. It meets a notable criteria and that alone warrants it. I am not going to entertain you with how a notable sub-culture's work is independently notable when it has no such requirement, but let me warn you the sheer volume of its derivative fanbase eclipses what most consider notability. Namely because Project Horizons is currently the longest recursive fanfiction in the world. Lets not even get into its multi-media options and inclusion into video gaming, artistic circles and conventions. Hate to say it, but under WP:GNG it probably deserves its own article. Refute the fact that Equestria Daily which follows these two works also has its own Wikipedia article which is officially recognized by the shows creators as well as the The Hub TV channel for being a premier MLP resource. I could even make a case for notability because anything which tops an officially recognized media source for all things related to the franchise and its works could actually count as notability itself due to its place as the top works. The deeper I probe the work and its culture and the official recognition the resource on which it reports the more and more notable it becomes. After digging up this much information... I might just have to make a whole article about it.

Jeffrey Hudson (1619 circa 1682) was an English court dwarf at the court of Queen Henrietta Maria. He was famous as the "Queen's dwarf" and "Lord Minimus", and was considered one of the "wonders of the age" because of his extreme but well-proportioned smallness. He fought with the Royalists in the English Civil War and fled with the Queen to France but was expelled from her court when he killed a man in a duel. He was captured by Barbary pirates and spent 25 years as a slave in North Africa before being ransomed back to England.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Younger_versions_of_cartoon_characters Since the 1980s, there have been many animated characters which are either junior versions (e.g., children, nephews, nieces, or protégés) or younger versions (i.e., the original characters presented as children) of other well-established characters. An example of a younger character is Scooby-Doo as a puppy, and an example of a junior character is Scrappy-Doo, Scooby-Doo's nephew.
