Profanity? Insanity!

Any chance that we can have a ban on profanity on uncyclopedia? The f word is such a lame way of trying to be funny. Just a suggestion from a former sailor-mouthed loser. – Preceding unsigned comment added by Refreshing2924 (talk • contribs)

While too much profanity is overkill and can be unfunny, profanity in and of itself can be extremely funny, and sometimes critical to an article's humor. So no; fuck that. ;) --THINKER 19:14, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, you could always replace "funny" with "fucking hilarious." Then, we'd all be happy. -RA HB 00:05, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Certainly not "fucking hilarious," that's for sure. -RA HB 18:57, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Quote on mainpage suggestion

There should be a quote on the main page that parodies the one on wikipedia at the moment. 'I am so grateful for your wonderful site - Anonymous'. I think the one on here should be 'I am so ungrateful for your shithouse excuse for a site - Anonymous'. I don't know how to add it though so someone else can do it.

The problem is that the Anonymous quote changes every page you go to. However, a parody of the whole template would be good. --YeOldeLuke 14:06, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Great, someone took my suggestion, now to sit back in self satisfaction and stroke my inflated ego.

Ahhhhhhh..... ego stroking.

Logo

Why is the logo an 'X'? I liked the original one better. This new logo looks stupid.

Yeah, i agree, this one looks idiotic

It's a joke regarding yesterday's Wikia-wide outage. Hence the apparent 'missing' material on the main page. It's not permanent. ;) -

Featured Picture of the Day

IMO, the "of the day" part is a touch misleading, as the picture is selected randomly with each page load. Could it be changed to "Featured Picture" or some such? EugeneKay wuz here (whine thank) 16:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Typo

There's a typo in the recently featured section; somebody forgot to put another "]". --YeOldeLuke 04:11, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. It wasn't a typo, turns out page titles can't have a comma in. For reasons I can't be bothered explaining. Worked around it for now, but should be fixed properly when DPL is updated. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 10:25, 08 Sep 2007

Ah, but I can be bothered. I searched and found it! There's a chunk of wiki-code that expects a comma-separated list. The comma in the article title screws up the code. EugeneKay wuz here (whine thank) 16:49, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that ;) The latest version of DPL will allow the template to be parsed after the comma is expected and has been processed, so commas in titles will not affect it. It could also be used to fix the bug in the link to the featured one year ago today's revision, but I don't know if that should be fixed. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 03:21, 11 Sep 2007

Thank you for your constructive criticism. Is there a particular aspect of it that "sucks," in particular?--<<

>> 13:35, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Sure - just about all of it. The idea, while good, is better placed on Fox News, or perhaps UnNews than the main page. While I see where the idea was going, I believe it flopped. The sudden change in site design, while comical in certain circumstances, annoys me more than provides for humor. Perhaps its just my natural disdain for anything related to the idiots at Fox, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, BBC, and every other "mass news media" station, but this Main page does not work for me. Keep in mind that not only am I just one user, but there are a lot of viewers who are not registered / could not be bothered to find the Talk page. --Ekashp 20:25, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Woah, actually well-thought-out criticism. Thank you (this time, no sarcasm).--<<

I liked it. The fact that unregistered users wouldn't know what the site is about would be the only reason I would criticize a reskin. I hate FOX news too, but the idea was making fun of FOX news. --RA HB 20:20, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Audit

Attention all Uncyclopedia users and administrators

This user account has been created by a member of the MediaWiki foundation. I find this project to be amusing. However, as you are most likely aware, all websites created with MediaWiki are subject to frequent vandalism and other undesired content. I am here to test your skills at combating these annoyances. Please do not be alarmed. Your instructions are as follows:

Respond to this comment within the next 30 minutes to confirm that you are ready.
I will "vandalise" random pages, so be ready. Your efforts will be timed by me and the results will be analyzed by the MediaWiki foundation. The results will be given to you when the analysis is complete.
You must respond as you would to a real vandal. If you would warn him first, do so before blocking this account!
Set the block time for this account to 24 hours. If you block this account for more than that time or without an expiration, you will have immediately failed your audit.

Please allow at three days for us to analyze your audit, but we will give you the results absolutely no later than in seven days. If you have a specific person or administrator that you want us to send the results to, please specify this in your reply to this message.

Remember that your wiki website has been picked randomly out of the most contributed to wiki sites on the web.

Thank you for your attention! We are excited to see these wiki sites grow.

Thanks, --MediaWikiAuditor 03:44, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, this is different. This ought to be interesting, as I've noticed vandalism around here is more constructive than destructive. How does that factor in to the results? --Ekashp 03:59, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

We've factored that into our Audit. We unanimously agreed that most of the "vandalism" that will be used in the audit will involve just blanking pages, or possibly breaking policies. But then again, you won't know. Just wait another 23 minutes or so until the audit begins. Thanks for replying to my information! --MediaWikiAuditor^{send me questions regarding audits} 04:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I guess it was either do this... or play with yourself; well, looks like the decision has been made for you --Olipro

Audit results

Hello, Uncyclopedia users and administrators,

As you remember, an audit was performed on your website several days ago. After presenting the results to the members of the Wikimedia foundation, we are ready to share them with you:

Your overall score is 4 (four) points out of 10 (ten), and will be recorded along with the results from other sites' audits

Here are the details:

Quick block: 1/1 (you blocked the previous account within 5 minutes)
Quick restoration of vandalized page(s): 1/1
Blocking according to specifications: 0/4 (the previous account was blocked indefinately)
Warning system: 0/1 (you gave no warning before blocking the previous account)
Communication with other users regarding blocking and/or vandalism activity: 1/2 (you communicated that the previous account was blocked, but no that it was going on)
Blocked in accordance to policies: 1/1

As you see above, what really detracted from your score was the block time issued. Perhaps this was a software error? Or maybe there needs to be more help pages on using the interface? These are common problems that cause this loss of points. I recommend that you definitely look into that. Finally, remember that communication is key to blocking vandals! Keep in contact and let people know when there is a problem.

Thank you very much for your time. --MediaWikiAuditorResults 03:24, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, by the way, it is unlikely that people who respond on IRC will know about auditing. Few people have been briefed on this and if those who have been briefed are on IRC, they have been instructed not to inform you that they are auditors or give details regarding audits on a public chatroom.

God told me to block it infinitely. Can I get points for that? • Spang • ☃ • talk • 03:31, 17 Apr 2007

Allow me to fix the errors in the report.

Quick block: 1/1 (you blocked the previous account within 5 minutes)
Quick restoration of vandalized page(s): 1/1
Blocking according to specifications: 5/4 (the previous account was blocked indefinately, which is in fact, what we do with vandalism-only accounts - not to mention God approves)
Warning system: 1/1 (you gave no warning before blocking the previous account, like one was required)
Communication with other users regarding blocking and/or vandalism activity: 2/2 (It's called the "block log")
Blocked in accordance to policies: 1/1

So as you can see, we did pretty damn well. Now GTFO. —Major Sir Hinoa prepare for trouble • make it double? 03:32, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Audit of Auditor: Results

As you probably didn't know, you were actually being audited on your auditing skills here. I'll give you the rundown of the results here:

Believability: 1/10 (Your formatting was OK, but "mediawiki foundation" is just inexcusable)
Vandalism attained: 0.2/10 (You blanked one page, which was reverted within seconds)
Persistance: 6/10 (You came back even after the initial block and disbelief, still in character)
Humour value: 4/10 (You were kind of amusing, but not laugh out loud funny)
???: 7/10 (Good ???)
Profit: 0/10 (No profit attained)

Thank you very much for your time. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 04:02, 17 Apr 2007

Audit of Audit of Auditor: Resultseses

As nobody knows, all audits of auditors are audited. Here's the preliminary results:

Self-reference: 5/10 (Needs more auditing of itself)

Sensibility:8/10 (It was readable. HOW?!!??!!?)

AAAAAAAAAA: A/AA (AAAA AAAAAAA AAA A AAAAA AAAA, AAAA AA AAAAAAAAAA AAAAA AAA. AAAA AAAA AAA AAAA AAAA)

Creativity: 7/10 (Auditing a fake auditor is good for a quick laugh, but then to have that audit audited is just nasty. Terribly sorry)

What's going on with Croatian uncyclopedia?

Does anybody know why Croatian uncyclopedia ( Neciklopedija ) doesn't work for a few days? Is there some problems and does anybody know when will it be fixed? Beforehand thanks for answer. Here is the link: http://hr.uncyc.org/

I'm not sure, but it could be related to having the same name as the Serbian one. Again, I'm not sure. Something similar is happening to the Gothic one, it could also be that they're new wikis. – Smiddle 10:13, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm... It is possible that problem is connected with the same name as the Serbian one, but what does it mean; does it mean that Croatian uncyclopedia should change here page's name or what? - The same problem with loading had have Serbian uncyclopedia and Magyar uncyclopedia before two or three days, but today theirs pages are working. And I can see that Ghotic, ไร้สาระนุกรม and 伪基百科uncyclopedia still doesn't work. - Do you know will someone from uncyclopedia.org fix this problem with Croatian uncyclopedia?

A whole bunch of these were moved to a new server and new MediaWiki version mid-week; long-overdue as they outgrew the old server months ago. At one point during the upgrades Gothic and Croatian were redirecting to UnCommons, thankfully that much seems to be back to normal now. Simplified Chinese (uncyclopedia.wikiachina.cn) is still completely broken, but that's unrelated (a Wikia problem) and hasn't worked at all for at least half a month now. --66.102.80.239 13:27, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

MAIN PAGE LINKS

You blokes at Uncyclopedia seem to be falling behind. Wikipedia seems to have a brilliant idea of requested pages. Say, I want a page on Green Beans? Wikipedia handles it perfectly. Well, not really, they yelled at me quite nastily and spit flew in my face and they told me to just look up beans, but if someone wants to look at something funny on Uncyclopedia and its not there, what are they gonna do? Some users may want to participate in a program like this (e.g., me) so add a link to request a page!! --58.169.134.151 11:01, 31 May 2007 (UTC) (User:Deviousdan) (I'm lazy so I'm not logging in)

Religious subjects--not funny

I noticed that the Uncyclopedia contains a lot of articles that supposedly make fun of Christianity. For example, there are "funny" articles on God, Jesus, and other key elements of Christianity. I also noticed that they also make fun of other beliefs in Christianity, like the Paul Bunyan article, which pokes fun at creationism (Christians do not believe that the Grand Canyon and other geographical details occur through millions of years, but through the Great Flood). The article on the Giant Spaggheti Monster makes fun of Christian worship. And there are articles that make fun of the Pope, the Cross, baptism...

Not many articles make fun of other religions, at least not to my knowledge. But there are dozens that make fun of Christianity. Why? Please try and make your so-called funny articles less offensive. There are such things as clean, inoffensive jokes on religions. Those articles are not among them.

Before you reply that those who object to religious jokes are narrow minded, racist, or discriminate others, try publishing a "funny" article on Islam, Allah, or the Prophet Muhammad, and see if you can get away with it.

Well for starters, you can peruse the religion category (which contains over 700 articles) and then go for Islam, Allah, and Muhammed, or Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Sikhism. You can't say that there aren't articles covering practically every well known religion.

I'm going to have to object to your statement that people who object to religious humour aren't narrow minded. Who are you to say that that subject isn't funny, and should be steered clear of? Is it OK to have articles on cancer and rape and generally bad things? Who decides where the line should be drawn?

If you start removing jokes because they might offend Christians, what about people who are offended by other non-religious things? What about someone who is offended by the You have two cows series, because by its nature it relies on stereotypes to make the joke? Why should you have any more right than them to censor that potentially offensive material just because it's your religion?

When it comes to humour and especially satire (which is what we aim for generally, where possible) either nothing is out of bounds or everything is. That's how free speech works. You have your right to be offended when someone makes fun of something relevant to you, as you should, but you do not have the right to stop them saying it, or stop other people being either amused or offended by it.

Humour is always subjective, so if you feel the articles are of terrible quality, regardless of the subject matter, you can vote them for deletion. If the articles are of bad quality, people will also vote it for deletion, and the article will be removed. But if you want them removed simply because of the subject matter or because they offend you, it isn't going to happen.

You're welcome to try and write a tame version of any article you like, and see if people prefer it over what's there. But what about people who will get offended by the fact that the article even exists, or that you tried to make any joke at all involving that subject? Should you take their opinions into account?

As I said before, either nothing is out of bounds, or everything is. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 09:39, 10 Jun 2007

I second everything that Spang said, and would like to add that I am deeply touched that my article about Paul Bunyan was amongst the articles that you thought should be...censored or whatever. --THE 23:45, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Immature humour

I don't know whether this is just me, but I find that there are a lot of witty things said here, and a lot of jokes that make you laugh, but some pages have some of the worst jokes which are just made by immature humour, which is usually just swearing. Some pages just have jokes made up of swear words on them, and it's not funny. Saying totally random stuff is funny, but sometimes it just isn't, like I read somewhere "Haydn was also the inventor of rice". I don't see how this is funny. Could some people please edit bits like these, as it's just people putting immature stuff which they believe people will laugh at because they said "fuck" at least three times in the sentance.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.....where to begin? The previous section makes the statement that humour is subjective, and I think that holds true here. Although many people here aim to make biting satire, quality humour I think we need to recognise that humour is a broad term and covers many different genres. Who's better, Lenny Bruce, Monty Python or Billy Crystal? Immature humour has its place, and I think we do aim to cover all the bases here. Having said that, a quick look through our Featured Content section will possibly demonstrate how most people view "whats funny" here. By all means try to improve articles, we possitively push for that, but don't judge the Hercules by the foot.... -- Sir Mhaille

I know what you mean, and I understand that other people have different types of humour, and I'm not trying to imply that mine is the "true" humour or anything, but what I'm protesting against is like the article above called "Beans". It just doesn't seem like something that people would find funny.

» Sir Savethemooses Grand Commanding Officer ... holla atcha boy» 06:18, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

That particular template was where the bad bad database errors that crashed wikia came from (as soon as it started listing you know who), so it was temporarily kept out when the featured article template was put back.

I've since re-written it to be much better, except it won't display the pages in the right order (it displays alphabetical, rather than the actual order they were featured in) until wikia updates DPL, so was waiting for that. But I could put it back now if the wrong order is fine.

Either way, please nag wikia more to update DPL for me. They love it, really. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 06:37, 03 Oct 2007

Because in order not to break wikia again, I avoided using 6 separate functions for the 6 recently featured spots, and combined it into one. Except the current version of DPL doesn't recognise the order I told it to put them in, and just uses alphabetical order instead. As soon as wikia update DPL, it'll go back to being in the right order again. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 07:39, 05 Oct 2007

Well, you see the problem is that the universe is just going to explode, due to the nature of trying to find something that was featured on a non-existent day. As such, we'll put nothing there, considering there won't be any front page to put it on...since it will be blown up and such...doesn't leap year only happen once every five years anyways? Isn't the next one scheduled for 2010? -RA HB 06:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

I believe that this is the appropriate time for an article on Leap Day - A national holiday during which suicide is not only legalized, but very strongly encouraged. --THINKER 06:39, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

The silly answer to your question is that the feature for Febrary 28th will be shown again, as that template was made keeping the fact that features used to be every two days in mind. And if there wasn't a feature on the day specified, it'll use the day before instead. And if there isn't one there, it just won't show anything at all.

The serious answer to your question is that yes, the world will explode whenever a leap year happens. Which it totally every 5 years. Don't ask what happens in a leap century. Just remember to avoid uncyclopedia when the year 2329½ comes round. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 18:45, 14 Nov 2007
