Wikipedia:Fart

Gossip magazines such as Confidential offer breathless reports about a range of celebrity body functions.

Some Wikipedia editors[A] often have a desire to put the latest, breaking wind news in articles. However, just because a piece of trivial information was printed in a newspaper or gossip magazine, or on a website, there is no requirement for it to be included on Wikipedia. Keep in mind: not every fart or burp is notable.

Magazines such as People and Us Weekly print information that interests readers that week regarding celebrities' purported dating activities, family disputes, and weight gain or loss. It's verifiable. That does not mean that Wikipedia needs to reproduce all of it. While there may be many articles in the space of a few days on a topic,[1][2][3] that does not mean it is of lasting significance.
