Forum:Conservation Week 2010
Hi guys (and the occasional gal or four). This is a message from your poopsmith reminding you that the first (and possibly only) Uncyclopedia Conservation Week is on us! Beginning July 5th, you all need to begin rewriting as many articles as you possibly can (Of course, the rewrite has to be better; I will be the judge of whether or not the rewrite is better, by the way.). Major expansions of an article (doubling it's size or more) will count as a rewrite. You can even rewrite an old article of yours and have it count. No rewrites are to begin prior to July 5th.
The prizes for the two top rewriters currently include having their names inducted into the bottom little portion of the UN:CW page and a template congratulating them. If I have the money, I may actually send shirts to the top two rewriters, but I can't guarantee that as of now. Dragon Ball stuff always gets my money prior to Uncyclopedia, kids.
If you have any further questions, just ask me here or on my talk page. Thanks everybody. D.E.X. Bulshit, Ass, Bitch, Anal Cancer, Dick 17:21, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
- On a UK project I intend to clean up the pages on the Conservative and Liberal Democrat parties - creating a separate history page for both and current one now. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 17:11, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

By the way
I've secretly picked out a few articles now and if ANY of you rewrites thems befores I do there will be consequences. Banana consequences. ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 23 Jun 2010 ~ 00:36 (UTC)
- Yeah, but you better not begin rewriting anything till July 5th, 2010, at 0:00 GMT. Understand? MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 08:19, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
- Yep. Haven't started a thing, and if you don't believe me now when you see the rewrites I'm sure you will then. ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 28 Jun 2010 ~ 06:25 (UTC)

So, any other questions?
I answered RomArtus in IRC, made Happytimes feel like an idiotic asshat here, and made an outrageous rewriting bet with emc. Anyone else wanna know anything? I'd rather keep this thread alive... MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 06:28, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

So... you're entering, to go toe-to-toe with E|M|C... And rewrites have to be an improvement on the original to count... And you're the one who decides if the rewrite is an improvement... Right? --UU - natter 09:45, Jun 25
- So... If I redirect wizard to A wizard did it, that's a proper rewrite... Right? 09:56, 25 June 2010
- Come on UU, I'm not going to do bad rewrites. In fact, I'll let you have final say over my rewrites personally. That sound good to you? And Socky, if I'm fucked up enough, it would. But that means you've planned out the rewrite ahead of time and it'd be inelligalble. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 10:13, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, I was just impressed that you got E|M|C to agree to a competition given that you could, if you want, completely stiff him. So to speak. Doesn't actually bother me. I'll do my traditional single rewrite as usual. --UU - natter 11:06, Jun 25
- You know, I hadn't even thought of that. I promise I won't do that, though. Same deal. If you think I'm wrong in saying something of his doesn't constitute as rewrite, then you can override me on that. But yeah, I'm gonna kick his lily-white ass! MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 11:15, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Wouldn't be the first time he has stiffed me. If you mean what I know. --EMC [TALK] 21:20 Jun 25 2010

I personally did not know it was that white. Is he an albino or something?User:Mrthejazz/sig 11:51, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Not that anyone cares, but...
...rewrites done during CW will count as 4 Unwehr Points instead of 2. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 17:55, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
You all know that
... You are not to get PEE REVIEWS or the like done to the articles you're rewriting while CW is still going on, right? Afterwards is fine, but during it isn't. Any rewrites should be all your own, guyz. No helparz coz dat aint kul. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 11:42, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
Fuck Your Dictatorial Regime!
I'm gonna start rewriting now! And if you think that disqualifying my entries will show me, you've got another thing coming, because I don't learn from my mistakes. SUCK IT! Pirate Lord__Sonic80 (Yell • Latest literary excretion) __ 19:17, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
Fuck Geah! Dictatorial Regime!
I stealthily commandeered Imperial Colonization (just now) and will be implementing change AFTER Conservation Week.
Please submit the flotsam of your suggested articles needing rewrites (after CW) here. ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 01 Jul 2010 ~ 07:25 (UTC)
Week?
Isn't a week equal to 1 week? wouldn't 2 weeks be a fortnight? shouldn't this be Conservation Fortnight? Also, the header at the top of every page gives me the impression that forest fire week is starting. Pirate Lord__Sonic80 (Yell • Latest literary excretion) __ 18:29, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
- No. Fortnights suck. It is two weeks, though. Double your conservation fun. Also, you know nothing of a FFW. Seriously. I don't think we've had one since before you were on the site. And we probably won't ever again. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 23:18, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
I'm pulling out
OK guys, after just one hour of trying to rewrite this article, they reverted my edits. So I'm pulling out because I don't want to be seen as a vandal. 08:48, July 6, 2010 (UTC)
- Or, alternatively, you could have a word with the guy, who looks like he's just a turbo-reverter, and explain that you are trying a good faith rewrite, and maybe explain what the "conserved" tag means, and ask him to take that into account before he reverts so quickly. (And perhaps you could rewrite section by section, instead of removing almost all the content and saving, which does look a little like blanking, doesn't it?) Anyway, I reverted the revert - don't give up so easily! --UU - natter 08:58, Jul 6
