Damn Vandals[edit source]
Some turd muppet has destroyed the page. I was reading it one second, looked at a picture in high res, hit back and poof!! Its gone. Cleverly I think said muppet left his name.
This article's Pee Review[edit source]
| Humour: | 7 | cute, funny in places... I think the "eradication" stuff comes on way too heavy though. More objective "observational" tone would underscore the dry humor. Also, while food/fat is certainly worthy of being in here (grin), think about branching out a little- child-bearing, PTAs, Junior League, suburban sprawl... all topics worthy of being picked on! |
| Concept: | 8 | good concept, and definitely needs to be in Uncyclopedia. Well organized; just needs to take a broader shot at its target! |
| Prose and formatting: | 8 | generally well-written, easy to follow. Latin names-- well, a little more subtlety would suit me, but might strike others another way. The more multisyllabic and pretentious the writing, though, I think the funnier the article would be-- particularly when you're speaking of trailer trash! |
| Images: | 10 | magnificent job. That Flava Flav pic, in particular, was a serious crack-up. :) |
| Miscellaneous: | 10 | good balance of text and pics, flows well... just think about taking more well-deserved potshots at the target, and might want to toss in the odd thing about Bush as well (always a chuckle). |
| Final Score: | 43 | th...th...th... that's all folks! Hope it helps-- very solid start you're working with there. :) |

My first genuinely good article! Hallelujah! I'm not deluded after all—I really do have talent!

I wrote something like this about rednecks. --Moneke 08:16, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
TAXOBOX[edit source]
| Americaners | ||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 This lizard is similar to Americans in many ways: it's cold-blooded, requiring vast amounts of energy to move about; it voted for Reagan in 1980; and, as you can clearly see, it's very patriotic.

what about a taxobox, see this example I made – Preceding unsigned comment added by Andersmusician (talk • contribs)
- I have no problem with it. As you can already see, I changed it a little to make it more consistent with the main article. Could you tweak it a little bit more, like get rid of the red links (as they go to articles we will probably never have), and change the conservation status to something like "too damn many"? --CUN RA Talk to me _ 04:54, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
The HOrrorrrrrroooor!!![edit source]
My eyes joined a death cult and drank poisoned kool-aid when they saw that fat kid. Just wondering, but does he have a medical problem? I also don't think wearing a Nascar cap really helps with our national image.
- well this is actually not an encyclopedia, but parody site instead, everything you watch here are pure lies.--201.230.56.214 22:11, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Beginning suggestion[edit source]
I can't edit the page but can someone replace the beginning with "[...]found predominantly in the United States of America and the Middle East". 75.85.182.226 08:18, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Just one minor wikilinking opportunity[edit source]
{{editprotected}} In the section Middle-class American, could we insert a wikilink [[lemming]]s where the text refers to "lemmings"?
Also, why is this page's protection set to indefinite? Hasn't the vandal in question been banned already? --Pentium5dot1 07:04, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Withdrawn. --Pentium5dot1|t~^_^~c 00:43, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
- Reinstating part of request ----Pentium5dot1 (semi-retired) t~^_^~c 05:50, June 19, 2010 (UTC)
- Done. I've also lowered the protection (semi since it's featured) but I think it's worth pointing out that indefinite seems to have been the only option in whatever version of mediawiki was in use back in 2007. I don't see an expiry associated with the log entry. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 23:33, 25 Apr 2014

hey there[edit source]
{{editprotected}}
Would someone please add the taxobox above? Also, why is this article protected anyhow? Rickyrab 02:40, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
- The original submitter forgot A. patrician so I've added it. I second this request, but I dispute which species should be listed as extinct. --Pentium5dot1 (semi-retired) t~^_^~c 01:08, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
- Done. – Llwy-ar-lawr (talk • contribs • logs) 00:04, 26 Apr 2014
Actually[edit source]
Cold blooded animals don't really need much energy to move about. Warm blooded animals use a lot more energy since they use a bunch of it for making heat. --72.197.35.238 06:15, February 16, 2011 (UTC)
Obese Americans[edit source]
Obese Americans used to be a rare subspecies, living mostly in the south, however, they have become more common throughout the entire country over the past 25 years. In the past 2 decades they have undergone a population explosion and they are now the most common type of American, outnumbering skinny Americans 2 to 1. In the southern United States, this number is possibly as high as 256 to 1.
