This is a great question. I actually spent a bunch of time searching since there was no citation but all I could find were references to the wikipedia page. So this is possibly made up. I went back and found the original diff[1] where it was added. It is from an IP in Redmond in March of 2007. Wikipedia needs a better interface to search through diffs. I had to manually do a half-interval search. :/ [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wingdings&diff=prev&oldid=117048909 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wingdings&diff...
