Not sure how to include this ...
»Hans Diller and his works are also read at the University of Copenhagen. However, visiting scholars should observe that the name Hans Diller has a special meaning in the Danish language. Since hans is the personal pronoun corresponding with the English his. The word diller is a normal term for the male organ of reproduction. Some students include this renowned professor in graffiti art. During 2008 the students of philosophy wrote graffiti at a wall near campus: "Facoult is dead." Student from classical philology added: "... but Hans Diller lives".«
Any thoughts? --Law Lord (talk) 21:17, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
2nd draft
Since I thought my originally proposed text was a bit abstract, I found a source (there are more than one), and re-wrote to the following:
»The 2009 graffiti incident
Hans Diller and his works are also read at the University of Copenhagen at the Faculty of Humanities. However, visiting scholars should observe that the name Hans Diller has a special meaning in the Danish language. Since hans is the personal pronoun corresponding with the English his. The word diller is a normal term for the male organ of reproduction.
In 2009, some students included this renowned professor in graffiti art. In February 2009 it was discovered that students of philosophy wrote graffiti at a wall near campus: "Foucault was/is gay." Students from classical philology added: "... but hans diller lives."« [1]

- I think this is puerile, and has no place in a serious biography. I doubt you will find anyone else to support inclusion. Fences&Windows 16:21, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Agree with Fences. Looks juvenile and out of place to me, inappropriate. I could edit the article about Dick Whittington and say that his first name means a penis and children laugh at his name. It is exactly the same thing about the name Diller meaning penis in Danish. Himalayan 18:44, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Well, the section is not about the humour (which some find funny and some not as with most humour) but rather about the incident. On that I guess I can see that the incident is a bit out of place for such a small article. --Law Lord (talk) 19:19, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Its not the same
Diller is way more hillarious than the name Dick in Dick Whittington. Dick is a normal name, whereas Diller is just plainly hillarious to any Danish person. Its probably not worth writing in a serious biography, but the only reason people google Hans Diller in Denmark is because of the grafitti. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.71.135.72 (talk) 19:25, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
