Hint: copy/paste the weird looking text into the text field provided in the above mentioned website. Even after decryption, I couldn't follow what he meant, but I was hoping someone out there can do so and then explain it differently, thanks. It's a real mystery.

::I think we are missing out on this section. I would like to have a separate page for this as we have for other larger comics. And also a separate transcript with the text that can be read on the large picture. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 21:24, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

:::And now it is being created, and categories belonging to this comic is being added. This makes sense comparing with all other large comics explanation pages. It is relevant to know that there are also hamster ball, boomerangs, kites, Richard Stallman and Star Wars lightsabers etc. But it's a huge work and it is not yet complete... To make it possible [[1000: 1000 Comics/Numbered images|a numbered image]] has been created and the [[1000: 1000 Comics/1000 characters|table with description of all 1000 characters]] are in progress. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 15:10, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

Why is this still Incomplete? Unless someone wants to catalog all 1000 characters, there's not much left to do.

:Well there is someone who wish to do that, and it is happening right now. So that's why it is incomplete (again) now. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 15:10, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

MIT hackers commemorated [[1000]] by posting all xkcd comics ever published around Lobby 7, a high traffic entryway near 77 Mass Ave. The comics were attached to both pillars and walls (using easily removable adhesive so as to avoid damaging the walls).  http://hacks.mit.edu/Hacks/by_year/2012/xkcd_1000/  [[User:Tericee|Tericee]] ([[User talk:Tericee|talk]]) 20:32, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
