More scenerererios:

Lamp is an oil lamp and out of oil or supernatural beings.
Lamp is battery powered and they're dead, missing, or inserted the wrong way.
Lamp is solar powered and the sun is dead, missing, or inserted the wrong way.
No electricity because it's the fucking Bronze Age. The time machine was malfunctioning or something.
You stopped taking your pills because you actually enjoy the hallucinations.
Throw a surprise party for no one in particular after removing the wallpaper from the walls. 75.4.146.213 (talk) 03:33, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the user should have the option to buy a candle. —Centrx→talk • 04:20, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There should also be arrows relating back to the initial problem; ie: when the bulb has been replaced, returns 'Does the lamp work?' —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.22.77.171 (talk) 14:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quality[edit]

If this is an SVG image, why are there jaggies and a lack of clarity at any resolution, such as the default one here? - KitchM (talk) 23:26, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Brilliant! Should be a featured image[edit]

Ever since my venture in alpaca breeding failed to pan out, I have been, so to say, living in the dark. You see, electricity bills being so high I can only afford one source of light in my entire apartment. Ever since my lamp stopped working I have been more in the dark than ever. I was at a loss of what to do. I haven't been doing my laundry, because I can't see it. Dishes are piling up because there is no light to wash them by. The dull, barely luminescent glow of my LCD screen only illuminates a few square metres of my surrounding area. I have forgotten what my cat looks like because I can only see her eyes.

Then, while editing Wikipedia, I found WikiProject Computer Science and this image. I followed the steps and, after putting on a very colour uncoordinated outfit I got out of the house and bought a new lamp. Now I can see again!

Thanks Wikipedia. Great eBayer. Would read again AA++ DubiousIrony ^yell 08:47, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is this right?[edit]

I've used this to diagnose problems with my lamps and I just keep going to the store to buy new ones. They work in the store but don't work when I get them home. I plug it in and the bulb isn't burned out so I go to the store to buy a new one. I'm starting to wonder if the switch on the wall is to blame. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.211.41.195 (talk) 14:21, 23 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
