Pretty interesting to have a list, but I was kind of hoping there'd be more information. The FAQ is a good start, and there's the link to wikipedia, but I was hoping for more insight than "Moai are cool. And video games are cool." More information that moves the site from a plain dataset to a more complex discussion. Just as an example, I was wondering what present day Rapa Nui people think of depictions of moai. Are there kinds of depictions that they feel represent/misrepresent their culture?

The project is likely "just" a meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/moai-emoji
