From Pee Review[edit source]
What do you think? How can it be improved?--Sir Silent Penguin "your site makes no sence" The illusion is complete 21:18, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- You got me laughing for sure. In my opinion, the strongest sentence is: "In a website where useless articles are created every 240 seconds, comes another article that simply blends into the middle distance." The rest is good as well. As a diversionary page — quick read, good for some laughs — it works well. If you intend on keeping it at this length, I'd recommend tightening up a few points and jamming the humour in. I mean, not sacrificing rhythm and such, but just a little tweaking here and there. Without changing too much, I'd maybe go with a few more quotes in their own section, but preferably strong quotes (keeping with the theme, strong in an irreverent sorta way). Maybe a "See Also" section at the bottom. I don't know that I'd add too much — some pages function better at a brisk pace. But you could expand it muchly, if ya wanted, as I think it's a great concept and an excellent title, and I'm impressed with your style as well. Keep it up and if I can offer you not much help again, feel free to drop me a line. -- Imrealized IMme 06:08, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Personally, I'd either lose the Yet_another_useless_article_poster image or change it to a header -- an image across the top of the page, with all the text below it. Again, personally, the article itself seems to read like what should be on a poster or in a movie review; I might reformat the text to be extravagantly bulleted and with bold bits and colored bits and extra-sized type underneath. Basically make it look more like a movie release notice or something. Just a glitzy opinion from an extravagantly unglitzy man, of course. ----OEJ 00:31, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
well i was the idea to make it look like a movie promo, i thought if i put the poster at the top though it would end up being more annoying than it is at the moment, at the side it is less arkward than it would beon the top.it also make a short amout of text look much longer, i like the poster peronally but i will have a go at the text stuff--Sir Silent Penguin "your site makes no sence" The illusion is complete 21:25, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
