Well, I'm making this public because I've noticed this is becoming a trend among, hmmm, new users. Adding the Template:FH (also the Top 10) to their user pages. Yeah, kids, you got that nifty stuff at the top left corner, but there's something you are not taking in consideration. You are also adding your user pages to the Category:Featured and that's were your n00bish silliness become a real problem. So, before some trigger-happy admin over here drop the sword of justice over your tender young necks, I'm warning you - that's not just an uncool stuff that makes you appear even n00bier. That can - probably, I'm not an admin, but I think they will agree with me on this one - bring you problems, if you know what I mean by "problems". -- herr doktor needsAscalpel

- Edit: actually, it's the "FH", not "Featured", which is a joke. -- herr doktor needsAscalpel
[scream!] 17:27, 21 April 2007 (UTC) - Good n00bies, got biscuit for you! See, IPs are not real people, but n00bs are! The aforementioned guys removed the FH from their pages. -- herr doktor needsAscalpel [scream!] 19:58, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

- You do realise that whenever we tell people not to do something, it becomes extremely popular, don't you?
Sir Cs1987 UOTM. t. c 17:00, 21 April 2007 (UTC) - Actually, I have the impression we are dealing with honest n00bs in this case. By the way, if the case is made public and the admins agree and the n00bs insist... Well, it's very easy to track down the sinners, just looking for the letter "U" in the category. -- herr doktor needsAscalpel [scream!] 17:10, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Just copy the code from that template, and paste it on the page. But remember to delete the Category:Featured bit. —Braydie 17:39, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Look what I did, aren't I funny. Before you have a hissy fit, I got rid of the category thing, so it wont show up. But I agree with Cs1987, if it isn't out of shear misunderstanding that it is being used, then telling people not to just makes it worse, you know, rebellion and all.--Sir Silent Penguin

I looked through the featured articles category to do a bit of cleanup on this matter, and I've found quite a few user subpages in it. Among them, two were AAAAAAAAA! copy/pastes, one was a funny version of Redundancy, another was on Wikipedia (probably another c/p), and the last was Gibberish, which I can't find in Category:Featured. Guys, if you want to try to rewrite an article or copy a funny version of a featured article to userspace, at least remove the {{FH}}. And I have NO clue why people have copies of AAAAAAAAA! in userspace. —Major Sir Hinoa prepare for trouble • make it double? 19:55, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
