Uncyclopedia:Accuracy
- "Uncyclopedia:A" redirects here. Not to be confused with Uncyclopedia:AAAAAAAAA!
This template may also be inaccurate.[This Can't Be True]
Uncyclopedia is the truth[1]. Therefore, everything in Uncyclopedia is true[citation needed]. If something in Uncyclopedia is not true[citation needed], then it must be corrected so that it is true[citation needed]. However, this will never be necessary because everything in Uncyclopedia is true[citation needed].
The Golden Age of Information: Pax Uncyclopædia[citation needed][citation needed][edit source]
“It makes me want to scream, shout, celebrate, cry and laugh, to know that I live in the Age of Uncyclopedia, the most glorious period of human history, in which all is illuminated.”
We live in the Pax Uncyclopædia[citation needed]: Uncyclopedia is filled with informative content of indubitable veracity[citation needed]. This unmatched accuracy was a product of a most ingenious technique[citation needed]. The Founding Fathers of Uncyclopedia foresaw that people would despise authority--that they will do whatever they were told not to do.[citation needed] So, the Founders, in their infinite wisdom, used reverse psychology[2] They asked for the world to write nonsense or humor and received Pure Knowledge instead.[O RLY?]
Repentance of Heretics[citation needed][edit source]
Some have questioned the factual accuracy of Uncyclopedia.[peace and prayers be upon it] In September 2000, they were invited to a friendly debate with the Lord High Inquisitor in the Palace of Knowledge[citation needed], a medieval torture chamber purchased by the Uncyclomedia Foundation and converted into a luxurious dining hall, complete with amenities such as warmed chairs and electrical stimulation devices for the resuscitation of those who have fainted (physically or metaphorically)[citation needed]. After several days, during which screams of joy (at realizing the truth) were heard from the Palace, the truth-deniers repented[4].
Scientific Research[O RLY?][edit source]
Many studies have been done to prove the accuracy of Uncyclopedia[citation needed]. According to the prestigious pee-reviewed journal Phallological Transactions of the Society for Marine Astronomy, Uncyclopedia contains up to 23.8% fewer errors than the Iraqi Ministry of Information[5] The Uncyclomedia Foundation also performed its own objective study, which found that 103.8532%[citation needed] of the information in Uncyclopedia was "250% true." [6] Chuck Norris read this article for scientific research, and concluded it was over 9000% true, which then promptly caused him to time-travel five hundred years into the past.[citation needed][O RLY?][Chuck Norris can't lie][suspicious quotes]
Cite Your Sources or Die[citation needed][citation still needed][citation needed][edit source]
To ensure superior credibility[citation needed], (if you can be bothered to do so) all sources must be cited[citation needed]. (Write {{cn}} at the end of every sentence that doesn't have a [citation needed]citation[citation needed]; It will show that what was being said is really a big fat greek lie[citation needed].[big fat greek lie]) All articles that do not have proper citations will be instantly deleted[O RLY?] and its authors will be devoured by those scary rainbow things that I keep on seeing everywhere.[citation needed][7]
You must use MLA format for some citations[O RLY?]. Unfortunately, for some mysterious reason that we cannot even begin to understand, the Modern Language Association has failed to create[citation needed] a format for some obviously reliable sources[citation needed]. For those, use these Uncyclopedia guidelines[guidelines don't exist yet unless you know how to scroll down].
Controlled Substances[citation needed][edit source]
- Hallucinogens should be cited with the following format:
- Name of Drug(s). Dose. Last Name of Drug Dealer[citation needed], First Name of Drug Dealer[citation needed]. City Taken In, Year[citation needed].
- LSD. 200 µg. Guy, Some. Los Angeles, 2002.[citation needed]
- Non-hallucinogenic[citation needed] drugs[citation needed] are[citation needed] not[citation needed] considered[citation needed] as [citation needed]accurate[citation needed] as hallucinogenic drugs[...more nee..]. However, you may cite them with the same format as hallucinogens provided that you take a very large dose[...Flying hello ok...]. To figure out what that dose would be, take hallucinogens and ask whomever you meet during your trip[....what...am.[]..I...here].
Electronic Sources[edit source]
- SPAM emails:
- Last Name of Sender, [citation needed]First Name of Sender. "Title of Email." Email Address of Sender. Date Received.
- Wilde, Oscar.[citation needed] "I am the truth"[citation needed] minluv@newspeak.oca 25 December 2005.
Interesting People Whom You Meet[citation needed][edit source]
For the protection of the privacy of the valuable experts who serve the greater good of our society, Uncyclopedia does not require that you provide the name of your sources[O RLY?]. You can just give a description of them[I think he had two arms and a nose].
- One Person:[citation needed]
- Description of Person. Year.
- That Guy Who Was Passed Out and Smelled of Vodka. 1998.[citation needed]
- That Person the Martians Want to Get. 2002.[citation needed]
- One person being channeled through another person through the nether realm or the Netherlands or whatever...:
- Last Name of Channeler, First Name. Name of Person Channeled. Means of Channeling. Year.
- Frenya, Skeezo. Chief Jaguar-on-Crack of the Ancient Toltecs. Yahoo Messenger (Occult Edition). 1998.
When Should I Cite Sources?[edit source]
A good rule of thumb to follow is to always cite sources when you have a sentence with the letter "e" in it[O RLY?][8]. This rule will always work, unless you have a sentence without the letter "e."{{cn[citation needed]}} If that happens, just cite the source[citation needed].
For example, let's say that you were adding content to the article You:
"You have a small penis [1].[citation needed] 'You' has 3 letters [2].[citation needed] An ant is absurd [3].[citation needed] The last sentence did not have an 'e' in it [citation needed].
