Uncyclopedia:Vote for awards, decorations and honours

This page is considered an ignorable policy on Uncyclopedia.

It has wide acceptance among editors and is considered a standard that everyone should follow, unless they don't want to, in which case they are free to ignore it, in which case nobody will care. Please make use of the standing on one knee position to propose to this policy.


This page is where you can nominate, discuss, and vote for new Uncyclopedian awards. It used to be that awards could be created willy nilly, but as the number of Uncyclopedian awards increase, its becoming clear that a system for creating each award is necessary. If you create an award and you don't run it by here, or you do and it doesn't pass, do not fear! You may still make it a minor award and it still may be distributed to people, it will just not carry as much esteem (which as you may be able to tell is a big part of Uncyclopedia, along with seriousness and formality). Every major award however, must include the following:

  • A good image that isn't voted to be crappy bad
  • A template which doesn't break the layout of Uncyclopedia, or look really bad
  • A clearly defined purpose which differs in some way from another, already created/nominated award
  • A name and short abbreviation (usually an acronym) which doesn't conflict with any other awards

When voting for an award, the following must be decided:

  • What is the awards rank number?
  • What is the final image for the award?
  • What is the final template/caption for the award?
  • What is the awards purpose?
  • What is the awards name and abbreviation?

and finally

  • Whether you think the award should be created or not, just because

Nominated Awards, decorations and honours[edit source]

UN:REQ Award[edit source]

Thumbs up2.jpg

This user created [{{fullurl:{{{1}}}|redirect=no}} {{{1}}}], an article originally requested on Uncyclopedia:Requested Articles. Good for them us!
  1. Awarded To People who have created an article from UN:REQ.
  2. Postfix {{reqaward|Article Name}}
  3. Nominated Some great articles have been created since its introduction four years ago. These include The Red Baron and Winfield Scott, two of my personal favorites, and I think these various writers deserve recognition for their contributions. Hopefully, this award might also encourage other editors to try taking on a request themselves.

I've made some basic maintenance templates in the past but this is my first award template. I'm still testing out some designs but this is the basic look for the template right now. I haven't really found an image which stands out but I thought I might as well put the idea out there and get some feedback. MadMax 05:18, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

No Bell Prize[edit source]

In parody, or more in tribute to the Marvel Comics "No Prize" they used to give out during the 60's. Basically a picture of an empty medal box with the phrase Congratulations! You have won the Uncyclopedia No Bell Prize. We don't know why the hell you got this, but you should be damn grateful for it! Instead of an actual award that demands merit, this is, simply put, a vote for nothing that anyone can get. Nominate anyone you want and top votes gets it. It's basically just a senseless "piece of flair" to put on your profile. Much like most of Wikipedia's awards and medals. I don't do Photoshop, I'm just a writer. But I think the award should be blank, plain white, with just the text and an empty picture. --JohnQ.Public 13:50, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Uncyclopedia Artisian[edit source]

Hypercube.gif

This user is skilled in the arts of Imaging (the art of manipulating and uploading images), and/or Userboxening (the art of making and formatting userboxes). Either way, they have earned a big shiny award! Also, they also earn the coveted lesser-known title of Uncyclopedia Artisan.


{{Uncyclopedia_Artisian}}

  1. Awarded To People who are skilled in the arts of Imaging or Userboxing(see award for details).
  2. Nominated Because I wanted to see how it went.

Maybe the image will be changed or the template will get a different look, i'm not sure. --Trar (talk|contribs|grueslayer) Mchammer.gif 01:32, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

  1. Yeah sure, why not. A userbox award is pretty cool, and you can make a userbox about it.--Naughty Budgie 09:37, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
  2. Aye! Perhaps, though, someone (not me) could photoshop the globe into a potato or something. To make it Uncyclopedia-ic. Necropaxx (T) {~} 23:03, May 17

Player Frustrator.[edit source]

Playerfrustator.gif
Player Frustrator

This user has made some good games, or has done something good with games. Most likely, though, the game was just way too difficult, and that's why they win the title of... PLAYER FRUSTRATOR.


'''{{Playerfrustator}}'''
  1. Awarded to A person who has done stuff with games that has improved the games.
  2. Nominated Because i felt like it.

I'll probably change the final image into something a bit more funnier, but the would be awarded to someone who does good stuff in the game namespace.--Naughty Budgie 03:47, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

YEA It's cool. --Trar (talk|contribs|grueslayer) Mchammer.gif 20:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Awar ideas...[edit source]

Well, i have an idea for an award that, may not sound particularly awesome, but could be good. The Player Frustrater award. Basically, It's for people who make A) Make so many Zork pages it's not funny, or B) Hasn't made that many Zork pages, but has made a few that are comedy gold. Anyone like? Naughty Budgie Talk|contribsNaughty Budgie 08:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Why not just give them a cookie? -- The Zombiebaron 09:43, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Well, there are people who go to special lengths to get the Zork series
even funnier and more choices and such. Like Conniving.--Naughty Budgie 05:59, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Happy Chairman Award[edit source]

Roflmao.jpg
Happy Chairman Award

Bloody marvelous! Happiness abound in readings of you. Laughing Chairman Mao giving you award from Some Random User for special contribute of funny to Uncyclopedia!!


{{HCA|Insert Your Name Here}}

  • Awarded to users the bestower finds amusing and who have contributed something rather funny to Uncyclopedia.
  • Postfix: HCA
  • Nominated just because. Yes, the entire award is written in Engrish. It's supposed to be.

I created this award as the sort of award anyone can give, but I would ask people to use their own judgment and give it to people who are genuinely funny. That is, if it passes the vote. Also, I think it's okay for someone to get this award multiple times. I mean, come on, nobody's only funny once. And Bar rules apply if someone gets it multiple times, I suppose.

Some ideas for awards[edit source]

okay, i got a couple Ideas for awards, but im to lazy/unskilled to make them myself:
GoldNinjaStar - remember when you were in kindergarten and got gold stars for spelling and what no? well now Uncyclopedia will fulfill your desire for shiny golden stickers!
JesusfreakAward- this could be either a bablebox, or an award for people who cite Jesus in articles alot.
Mensa Award- for doing something intelligent/using intelligent humor
Undead of the Order of Uncyclopedia- a badge (like the MUN/KUN &c.) for Undead (like me) members of Uncyclopedia
Hitler's Mustache- Awarded to people who make references/articles about/pictures of Hitler regularly.

Well that's all for now, I'm not really sure if this is the place for these ideas, but I hope something comes of them...
--The Zombiebaron 01:06, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
I might do that Ninjastar... --officer designate Club symbol.png Lugiatm Club symbol.png MUN NS CM ZM WH 16:24, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

How about someone makes some sort of award worn as a woggle-- that "woggle in six colour" has been on the Cub Scout Uniform image and nothing has been done to it. --Clorox Yes, I'm American. No, I don't like George W. Bush. Please don't shoot. MUN ONS (diskussion) 23:58, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

I like the gold ninja star, and the Hitler's Moustache idea. And the MENSA award. Yeah, these are some pretty good ideas. Naughty Budgie Talk|contribs08:31, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

WOW INSTAHUFF-5000 NOW ON MARKET![edit source]

Buy one get one free now! To be placed by admins on the top of a member's userpage. Usage is {{Huffometer|0}} where "0" represents the user warn level (1-10), so a user with a warn level of 5 would have:

My Huff-O-Meter reads…
Uh, a long black bar isn't good.
          

Vote. NOW. --officer designate Club symbol.png Lugiatm Club symbol.png MUN NS CM ZM WH 17:51, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

I like it but it would probably be not an honor and more of just a template for a new way of handling users. maybe you should put something about this on the VD as well to show more users? I'd use it :) --Maj Sir Insertwackynamehere Icons-world.gif CUN VFH VFP Bur. CMInsertwackynamehere | Talk | Rate 02:06, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

This award is endowed for an extreme propensity
to cause ocular hemorrhaging.

{{{1}}}

Template:Bleedingeyeball My eyes! My beautiful eyes!

  • Awarded for contibutions in the field of graphic design. A cow field.
  • Postfix - KaKun.

Used for the criminally inept at image making. Use is {{Bleedingeyeball|Yourname}}, alternatively, it could be the Image equivalent of Useless Gobshite of the Month. Image made by MoneySign. Idea by Volte. Template by me. Nothing done by both Keitei and Mhaille. A real group project, if I may say so myself. officer designate Club symbol.png Lugiatm Club symbol.png MUN NS CM ZM WH 17:22, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Honorary Knighting idea[edit source]

Honorary Knighting
KUN.png
Knight Commander of the Order
Fox News service to Disinformation.

Awarded in actual articles to people .. corporation. etc. whos goals are similar to ours wink wink(whatever they maybe). Could be formated better but just gagging opinion. --Da, Y?YY?YYY?:-:CUN3 NotM BLK |_LG8+::: 03:50, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)

heh i really like the idea, but because of it's special use, I'm not sure it would be considered a user award. However the idea itself is great, and should be used in articles where it applies, i think. --Maj Sir Insertwackynamehere Icons-world.gif CUN VFH VFP Bur.

Comment. Why don't we have an award for users whose names can include a ligature?
~ Ghelæ - note Ghelæ. Ghelæ. talkcontribs 17:29, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
PS - This simply shows that anyone can make an award to fit their username. I don't really want an award for that, it just goes to show...
Comment I guess this might stay unofficial. I see you and Bob3 use it, but it might not actually be useful. --Lt. Clorox MUN Goatse Virgin ONS (talk/fortune cookie) 00:09, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Major award[edit source]

Possibly as Template:Major award (the article Major_Award is somewhat lacking content, but is funny.) Possibly could be given as an award for winning a major award. As it is a major award itself, this would be recursive. --Splaka 00:19, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Majoraward.jpg You have won a
Major Award!

{{{1}}}

I like it but it needs a better purpose methinks --Maj Sir Insertwackynamehere Icons-world.gif CUN VFH VFP Bur. CMInsertwackynamehere | Talk 22:26, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Suggestions: Postnominal=MjA., Description=like FIYC but better, Rank=1, instead of {{{1}}} there could be "You helped Uncyclopedia a lot! You deserve a major award!", and maybe it could get you a Grand Cross title. --Clorox Yes, I'm American. No, I don't like George W. Bush. Please don't shoot. MUN ONS (diskussion) 23:37, 12 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Heres an idea: Use this award for those who majorly contribute to Colonization projects. It would add an incentive. MjA would be a nice post nominal. It could give the commander rank, like featured articles, and would allow the title of sir. Afterall, they are out there colonizing for the queen arent they? ~Sir Rangeley Icons-flag-us.png GUN WotM UotM EGA +S (talk) 03:31, 28 Nov 2005 (UTC)

I like it! --Maj Sir Insertwackynamehere Icons-world.gif CUN VFH VFP Bur. CMInsertwackynamehere | Talk 00:15, 1 Dec 2005 (UTC)
Question: Is this one always postnominal, or are there any circumstances upon which one may be commissioned to use the military-style Maj. prefix? --Carlb 21:23, 5 Jan 2006 (UTC)
Probably not because prefixes are instated for the rank you are, and not actual awards themselves--Maj Sir Insertwackynamehere Icons-world.gif CUN VFH VFP Bur. CMInsertwackynamehere | Talk 14:53, 7 Jan 2006 (UTC)

The Doug memorial cow award[edit source]

this would be awarded to the users that I feel are great people. it would go like red cow award, orange cow award, yellow cow award, blue cow award, and white cow award, in increasing prestiegiousness. Don't ask me who Doug is. he's a friend that loves cows. he's not dead, but just in case he dies, well, yeah. --The.original.joe.shmoe 00:31, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
