Wow! neat stuff from everyone.  I'm going to spend way too much time drooling over these.

Here's my list.  No much, but not aweful.  I could pimp out one festive dwarf in cool-looking armor.  He might die quickly though...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Some notable ones:
Mergevoiced the Dispersed Musics (make your mind up!)
The Alchemical Violence, an adamantine short sword
The Spiteful Glee, another adamantine short sword
Spatteredskinny, another... well, let's just say that about three kobolds have made it off the map after being discovered, and those were because they ducked out of dwarven sight and I didn't feel like clearing up the mess.
The Taciturn Rampage...
The Harvester of Owls, not a sword but a statue (shock). I just really like the name and I have no idea why.
Coveracts THE BLOOD OF WRATH. It's a shield. But at least it's copper?
The Crested Mother, another name I just like.
Hornflame the Bites of Comedy, a green glass ring created by a dwarf who I think was possessed and refused the more expensive glass types. Ha ha ha. Enjoy your new title, you wanker.
A quern called The Delights of Chopping, in a fortress that does very little milling.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

I feel remarkably inadequate.

Don't worry about it.  I'm probably never going to stick to a fort long enough to come close to some of these mega-lists, but short one's are fun too.  That's what she said.  Let's see what you got.  It would be hard to be less impressive than mine.

only 2 artifacts so far. the one that made me laugh most? thingy (lets say "sharped"), so Sharped, the green glass crow, encircled with a band of granite and adorned with - a picture of Sharped, the glass crown. I wonder if you can zoom enough if the images of the glass crown on the glass crowm embedded in the glass crown image of the glass crown go on for ever. I do know its worth a lot tho :D

Oh psh. As far as I'm concerned, the best part about artifacts are the occasionally hilarious names, and we can never get enough of that.

How old is your fort?  I've never seen so many artifacts!  My record was 13, in a ten year old fort.

Going on 90 years, at the moment. It's definitely an aberration, since most of my forts don't last past 10 or 15.

That's extraordinary.  Congrats!
