Pre-Rendered Welcome![edit source]
Hello, Quackenblatz, and welcome to Uncyclopedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If not, the door's right over there... no, a little more to your left...Not that far, dammit! ...Yeah. Anyway, here are a few good links for nooblets:
If you read anything at all, make it the above two links, particularly the second one. If you want to find out more about Uncyclopedia or need more help with something, try these:
- About Uncyclopedia and The five pliers of Uncyclopedia
- How to get started editing on uncyclopedia
- Everything you ever wanted to know, but were afraid to ask
- Help Pages - if you need help with a specific issue
- The FAQs - a few common editing questions answered for your convenience
- Our Vanity Policies - why we don't care about your friends
- Uncyclopedia:Chat - Follow the instructions here to come to the Uncyclopedia IRC channel.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being an Uncyclopedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or use the "sign" button (
) above the edit box. This will automatically produce your username, a link to your userpage, the date, and your social security number. Really, there are only two rules, just make sure you take a brief look at them.
If you need help, ask me on my talk page, ask at the Dump, or add the following: {{help}} to this page along with a message and someone who cares will come along and help you if they can. Additionally, the Uncyclopedian Adopt-a-Noob program is there to bring experienced editors straight to you. Simply put {{adoptme}} on your Userpage to join--but you might want to go and actively ask someone from here, or you might not be noticed. Again, welcome to the machine!
Now, being less formal, you will see the above message in a lot of users' talk page. However, that does not mean this is an automated message. Really, I had to click on your user talk, copy-paste this stuff, and submit it with my own fleshy finger. Now, some personal non-official advice:
- You may think some stuff that appears everywhere here is cool, like Oscar Wilde, Chuck Norris, Kitten Huffing, Russian Reversal, and Mr. T. Those things are completely overused and not really funny anymore. Among us sophisticated intelligentsia, we call this phenomenon cliché. Whatever, these subjects are worn out, near death, and in dire need of being huffed. Just please don't mention them unless you have a very, very good reason. Or if it's funny. And I mean funny.
- Another thing we veterans hate is Random Humor. Don't put chicken from Mars in an article about George Washington. You can put it in an article about, well, Chicken from Mars. That's it.
- Humor is a subtle subject. People will tell you that talking about excretes is just bad taste - count me among them - and others will find this kind of stuff the
pinnacle of subversive irony. Just stay calm, have a good look at HTBFANJS, and try to learn what works best. No one here will ban you as long as you don't impose your non-conformist ideas on already created stuff. - Start pages in userspace, first. By that, I mean if you wanted to create a page called "Flappy woo-ha," instead of creating the page Flappy woo-ha, create User:Quackenblatz/Flappy woo-ha. That way, you'll have plenty of time to work on it and it won't be deleted or ICU'd. You can start a page in mainspace, just make damn sure what you put there is long enough and funny enough to not get huffed.
- Never recreate a deleted article. Never redo a reverted edit. Never.
- There are a lot of links I just put on your page. This is the most important one.
- And, finally, don't be afraid. We don't eat people. Usually. - P.M., WotM, & GUN, Sir Led Balloon

Why exactly are you adding that picture...[edit source]
... to every damn article? Give me a reason. Cause I'm tempted to UN:BP you. --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:02, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
I added it to pages that I thought had a conspiracy theory feel to them. Who doesn't love Señor Conspiración? You, apparently.
- It's been 30 minutes. I'm tried of waiting. To Ban Patrol you go! By the way, I've removed the picture from every article you put it on. --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:34, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- You couldn't wait 30 minutes? I was out getting lunch, ya skeet beaver. – Preceding unsigned comment added by Quackenblatz (talk • contribs)
- I did wait 30 minutes. You don't seem to be a vandal, but image spamming is still against the rules. Also, sign your comments. --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:44, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- And I'm still waiting for an answer. --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:45, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- I responded to each of you messages thread-style. Scroll up. "I added it to pages that I thought had a conspiracy theory feel to them. Who doesn't love Señor Conspiración? You, apparently." And rules? What rules? Go to Wikipedia.... --Quackenblatz 17:50, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Well... Damn. Now I feel like an ass. Come here and give me a hug. I took you off BP. And I didn't see the one comment so... --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 17:55, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- No worries. *****HUGS***** (Whoa. That was ghey. Not the hug. But, it, um, moved...)--Quackenblatz 17:57, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Um. We do have some rules. Mostly you can get away with a lot so long as you are funny. Adding the same picture to that many articles is not funny. If someone keeps seeing the same pic on lots of different articles, do you really think that's funny? Be a bit more creative eh? We are glad you want to help, but this is ridiculous. Please stop reverting Dexter111344's removal of your pictures. Please read HTBFANJS Thanks. MrN

- Repetition, brother. Repetition. I mean, really. --Quackenblatz 18:01, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

- Exactly. And I beg to differ: Dude. That shit is hysterical. Additionally, I must admit, I was testing all y'all's boundaries. People that claim to have a sense of humor (or humour) often have a breaking point where they prove that sometimes (only sometimes, that is) they do not.--Quackenblatz 18:12, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Well, you have now had 3 people edit this page now to the effect that they don't think what you are doing is helping Uncyc. So, take that as a polite "no thanks" OK? Like I said... Go do something else more creative! MrN 18:10, Jun 16
- Whoops. Sorry. That was *me* responding to *you*. I just forgot to sign. like this: --Quackenblatz 18:12, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yep, I saw that from the edit history. We have eyes everywhere you know. We even know what you had for dinner actually. :-) MrN 18:14, Jun 16
- That's awesome. Even more awesome if you could explaing the dinner vs. supper thing. We don't get that over here.... --Quackenblatz 18:16, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Sure. Dinner is which ever meal is the "main meal" of the day. Sometimes it's eaten at lunch time, and sometimes its eaten when the news is on. :P Not helping? Hmm... Well, this is Uncyc! What do you expect? MrN 18:19, Jun 16
- If that's dinner, then what is supper? --Quackenblatz 18:20, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, we have a sense of humor. These will make you laugh off your rocking chair. -- 18:21, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- @¿Qua? Oh, I know you do. I've lost many, many hours at work on this site. My comment was "only sometimes"...--Quackenblatz 18:23, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, we have a sense of humor. These will make you laugh off your rocking chair. -- 18:21, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, as a side note. I would watch it with the "testing the boundaries stuff"... If you think you are the first person to try something like this you are very much mistaken, and not all of our administrators have as good a sense of humour as our good friend Dexter111344 up there. Also, if you think I'm telling you when "tea time" is, you have no chance. Anyway, this talk page is getting crazy long! I'm out of here.... Go write something funny god dammit! MrN 18:25, Jun 16
