From Pee Review[edit source]

Written in about an hour... it probably shows. Figured I should turn it loose on Pee Review ASAP. --Andorin Kato 03:31, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Humour: 8 I greatly enjoyed the whole "he's old, so he must be after your sex!" parody involved, particularly, but the sarcastic tone doesn't entirely serve the article aside from that. Then again, without it, it doesn't work at all, and that would be worse.
Concept: 7 Although vague, I know that the old man has been the butt of many a joke. It would only be gotten by those who were expressly searching for things of the sort, and fortunately, the title ensures that it won't be found by those who would scratch their heads in confusion.
Prose and formatting: 6 Again, the tone of the article doesn't serve much of it beyond the first paragraph or so (maybe the last bit about the Money Making Swindle Game), but it does what it must. Formatting was good, didn't break the wiki.
Images: 6 The screenshots served the purpose well enough, but there were a few too many for my taste. Still, the Money Making Game one was pretty good. Maybe you should remove some like the one near the pyromania section and replace it with a good potatochop.
Miscellaneous: 8 Again, I'm very happy with the parody of the old pedophile stereotype, intentional or otherwise. The links to other articles with unwieldy titles also worked pretty nicely.
Final Score: 35 You got the talent rabies, kid. Go bite some articles into gold!

I didn't get the same impression as Kalir. I thought the format it was written in wasnt quite suitable. It was all a direct address to the reader, with lots of "I mean COME ON!" and the like. I think you could turn it into an Encyclopedian format with little effort.
