Mate

Deleted by RCMurphy, but I really can't be bothered restoring so it'll stay that way--Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 21:20, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC) From QVFD

Expand/Rewrite I think it's OK --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 16:09, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewritten put the new version up for VFD if need be--Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 21:19, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Little known site of non worth. Uncyclopedia is not a live journal. --Sophia 20:16, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Baleet

Redirect to 404 or perhaps to this page.--Carlb 20:57, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite it to indicate an inferior product and then protect the page. --IMBJR 20:57, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

^^Agree except that I think we should note that it died after alientating its sponsors/promoters. --Famine 02:06, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite/Agree. I like. I like a lot. Or maybe put a funny template. Such as

Avert thine eyes!

This page is extremely offensive and should not be viewed by anyone! (It may even be illegal in several countries as well.)

--47Monkey MUN HMRFRA s7fc | Talk 07:56, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Might as well get of template:Encyclopediadramatica while we're at it. --130.95.106.154 06:48, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep, Surely us and them have a lot more in common than we have differences, I know technicaly the page is a a bit too un-uncyclopedic but I think it's a useful place for stuff that dson't fit here and vice verse.--Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 11:48, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

If we do keep the article, lets make it worse. This Sherrod fellow has been playin DMCA games for awhile. --Nytrospawn 15:11, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

After reading the goings on at the dump I'm more inclined to Delete or Heavily Rewrite to massively rip the piss, Nelson Muntz getting his commupance style. --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 15:43, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Move to Encyclopedia Melodramatica, an article about the “fictional” wiki devoted to LiveJournal-obsessed foul-mouthed juvenile people with fragile egos. --KP CUN 18:16, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

template:Encyclopediadramatica

Deleted --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 21:15, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Delete

The rubbish at the dump is mild compared to Wikipedia:talk:Encyclopædia Dramatica or a Google on "Sherrod Degrippo" - I still can't make head nor tail of this. Why would a supposed computer security expert build a teenybopper-style LiveJournal fan site, use realname publically on whois, then go off on a DMCA-abuse rampage both here and at Wikipedia in response to that name appearing in the respective encyclopædia Dramatica articles? Editing from an IP belonging to US Department of Energy in Nevada to try to get rid of the realname info, and multiple Wikipedia handles (encydra, encydra2...) with the same edit pattern (remove site owners name from wikipedia:Encyclopediadramatica, unlink image, spew spurious DMCA nonsense) isn't dramatic, it's stupid. Almost seems a few fries short of a happy meal... not something I'd really see wanting to link to right now, even if a few pieces of the puzzle are still missing. --Carlb 17:02, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Not only that, but some more

Someone send our dialogues to slashdot for the uberfication of our situation. Or something. Ive done searchs of this Sherod Degrippo, and "it" seems like a very shady character who could be the leader of the League of Maladjusted Individuals --Nytrospawn 19:01, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Merged and Redriected to Led Zeppelin --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 20:25, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Delete! fot nunny eor nnejoable. --47Monkey MUN HMRFRA s7fc | Talk 01:50, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Merge content to Led Zeppelin (where it presumably "belongs"), then delete. And let us never speak of it again. --DWIII 02:05, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I say we implement a radical new Darwinian deletion system by which the stronger articles are able to consume or destroy the weaker ones of their own volition and without the help of admin. --Spintherism 02:12, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I say, I think you're on to something! --47Monkey MUN HMRFRA s7fc | Talk 02:34, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

How about a 1000 Uncyclopedians Typing Hamlet article? The contents of all deleted articles can go into this article. As the unfunny and uninteresting text accumulates, others can delete the unfit strings of characters. Eventually, we can get Hamlet to evolve out of this mess. --KP CUN 07:34, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

That seems like a good idea, but we should likely also allow two types of deletion: 1) page content lacks humour and is moved to the 1000 Uncyclopedians article. 2) page is a vanity page or offensive and is just plain baleeted -- ERTW MUN 17:29, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Uncyclopedia:No Adverts seems like a good place for vanity articles as well as spamvertising. --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 21:24, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

There, I made the 1000 Uncyclopedians Typing Hamlet article. --Spintherism 18:10, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Template:1000 Uncyclopedians If you don't see a white border, your browser sucks. --47Monkey MUN HMRFRA s7fc | Talk 10:20, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Kirby and Lolly

Both submitted by the same anonymous IP and both have no humour at all. -- ERTW MUN 00:08, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Delete both. --DWIII 02:15, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Delete both. We have standards here. --KP CUN 07:36, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Whacked them both, followed "what links here" to other crap, and whacked that too. It was like an adventure. --Famine 02:24, 15 Aug 2005 (UTC)

So, JZ is a raper, huh? I think I know just the graphic for this article. . . delete --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 14:04, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

There, I changed the page to something that didn't suck balls. Re-read it. --ENeGMA

Nice work, En. I think it's important that we continue to keep Uncyclopedia multicultural and have something for the young people (betwen the ages of 27 and 35) to enjoy. --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 10:02, 13 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Delete but you couldn't hear me tell you that if we were in space. -- ERTW MUN 03:28, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep true, it's not very funny, but the premise isn't bad. just needs work. --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 14:07, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite Dunk this baby into some water and watch it be reborn. --KP 17:01, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Perhaps tie into the air article somehow? --Spintherism 21:22, 13 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Comment

The original quote (used as a slogan for a movie sometime near the end of the 1970's) was "In space, no one can hear you scream". There have been variations ranging from "in cyberspace, no one can hear you scream" to "in n-space, no one can hear you scream" - mostly invented by frustrated compsci and math students respectively. Amusing as one-liners at the time, but this article as written lacks humor entirely. --Carlb 01:59, 14 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I think we should mirror our discusion onto MemoryAlpha:Memory_Alpha:Votes_for_deletion#Sound_in_space and vice verse :-) --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 09:24, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Shew and Scoo and Middletonia 2 and ...

... anything else that touches these articles. --IMBJR 21:41, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Nuke it from orbit it's the only way to be sure. -- ERTW MUN 03:28, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep their not hurting anyoe and I like these random collections of internaly consistant yet nonsense articles, I also can't imagine anyone creating another article called "Middletonia 2" so it's not in anyones way. --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 09:35, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I'm with Sir on this one. --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 14:21, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

God damn.../me deletes the Middletonia article he was working on...

Regardless, I think these are keepers. I'd like to find some better way of organizing them tho. Do we have a "non-earth history" category or something? --Famine 17:01, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Famine's suggestion implemented --IMBJR 19

28, 19 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Made me laugh for the wrong reasons --IMBJR 21:38, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

What the Fuck? I mean seriously. That's god damn messed up. I say we keep it, just in case someone claims we're normal or respectable. We can point them there, and use it as a leverage in any negoitiations we have to do. "Do you really want someone like this irritated at you? I'm sure we can come to some agreement, before they show up on your doorstep..." --Famine 23:59, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Translated to the English via Babelfish or bathtub drugs? I say keep just because it's that darn bizarre.--blargh 01:30, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep definitely for the bizzare factor -- ERTW MUN 03:28, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Move to Babelfish Translations --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 09:36, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Humm, perhaps we should have a section for stuff like this. I vote we make a "Non-Native English Prose" subcategory under Category:Incoherent, and place this (and other) articles there. --Famine 13:25, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Partick Thistle Football Club

Kept --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 20:52, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Too factual? --IMBJR 21:34, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

More than factual, looks like vanity to me. -- ERTW MUN 03:28, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

It's actualy reasonably sarcastic "overshadowing their city rivals Glasgow Celtic and Glasgow Rangers many times over" --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 10:23, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I kind of like it. It’s like a niece or nephew to me. I don’t want to raise it. But I can keep it company for an afternoon and return it to its parents when it has a temper tantrum. --KP 17:05, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep Perhaps you may have to be from Glasgow or Scotland to fully appreciate it but I think it's rather good. Gordon.

KEEP I've written seen far worse. Although perhaps you need to know a bit about fitba', you don't need to be Scottish

QVFD since 29/6, time to put a bullet in his head?

Rewrite

Replacing "peace" with "warrior" isn't in and of itself funny. The "I am Ghandi, I come in peace, come see peaceful nuclear explosion test to symbolize peace between India and Pakistan" might work, but only by mixing fact and contradiction. --Carlb 15:46, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep/Expand It didn't quite make me chortle, but it's probably above the 50th percentile. (Note: it's been dramatically rewritten by Blargh since it was initially VFDed, so take another look if you haven't already.) --Spintherism 05:05, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep I think Blargh did a good job. It's not the funniest thing he's ever written, but it's decent, competent humor. Any deficiencies are inherent in the subject matter, not with the Blargh. --Marcos_Malo S7fc BOotS | Talk 10:15, 13 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I rewrote it slightly.--blargh 02:24, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)

As n00b, I didn't want to be all cocky with the "I did this," but I think some indication that it has indeed been altered would only be fair if we're still voting on it, so I've retroactively added a comment here to articles I've altered. Wasn't sure if I personally should go ahead and take the VFD's off when I did the edit, or wait for people with higher 1337ness to do that?

Rewrite

Oh hey, it was on QVFD? I rewrote the whole thing on July 31st, I didn't notice it was QVFD as well. If it's too factual I apologize, it was mostly just a gateway to the Stallhor Curse. --Monthenor 03:57, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Being dealt with --Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 20:48, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC) http://en.uncyclopedia.co/w/index.php?title=Special:Unusedimages&limit=500&offset=0

There are 278 images with no homes to go to. I'm suggesting that any image that's older than a month gets reamed. --IMBJR 12:19, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I've got a feeling some of these images would be useful if we knew they were there. Is it possible to make some sort of thumbnail gallery of unused images?--220.238.29.245 13:43, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

P.S. do we have any real reason to delete these old pictures other than for the hell of it? Are we running out of space?

I'm not privy to the current server space size, but I see no point in storing images that go unused. --IMBJR 13:57, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

But what about a rainy day? WHy don't you think like this man? Huh?!--47 Monkeys 14:00, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Selectively keep

If there's some other reason to huff 'em (plagarism, near-duplicate of something since reuploaded under another name, poor quality) then huff 'em, but it should go beyond "unused" to "unlikely to be worth using anytime soon." --Carlb 15:53, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Yes, a combo of plagarism and worthlessness is probably a good deciding factor. --IMBJR 16:00, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Unused images as of Aug 8, 2005: Uncyclopedia:Pages_for_deletion/unusedimages

Discussion of individual unused images may be best moved to these subpages as there are simply too many images to all fit on one page. --Carlb 19:08, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I've now reviewed all of them there purdy pictures. If anyone else would also like to vote - please do so. --IMBJR 10:20, 10 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Question

So, being n00b, I have question -- what happens if I used some of these previously unused images? Should I hunt them down in the list and add a comment that they are now used?--blargh 01:16, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Probably a good idea, of course before huffing the picture someone should double check it's not being used, but........--Sir Elvis KUN | Petition 10:05, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Image:Yougonnaget.jpg

Kept with a whopping six votes in favor of retaining the image. Nothing like an accusation of racism to give the ballot boxes some action. I'll leave the image description blank so that someone can write something...appropriate...there. --Rcmurphy KUN 02:12, 18 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Why was this racist shit on the main page? This isn't funny. It's racist. Racism is not funny.

Please DELETE.

there is NO excuse for this. please delete this image and or at least remove it from the fucking main page. --66.177.138.113 (Talk • Contribs (del) • Block (rem-lst-all) • Whois • City • Proxy? • WP Edits • Checkuser) 23:47, 6 Aug 2005

Keep This isn't racist, and I don't know how you came to that conclusion other than that you're an idiot. But even if it this image somehow was racist, that still doesn't make it inherently unfunny. Go pull the stick out of your ass, Mr. Stick-in-the-ass. --EvilZak 03:03, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Edit: I agree with Carlb that the image description shold be rewritten' --EvilZak 23:24, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep for the same reason as EvilZak mentions. -- ERTW MUN04:12, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite

image description page is in poor taste, though not necessarily on racial grounds. --Carlb 04:22, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC) Comment: Full text (including desc page) is "You gonna get raped. Well ya gonna, why fight it?". Tone is therefore one of being in favour of those who commit severe crimes against the person? A similar question was raised earlier wrt National Try To Assassinate The President Day and that article has been carefully worded (or reworded) to indicate that yes, this is still criminal, while retaining much or most of the original. --Carlb 15:56, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Whatever It's obviously* racist on some level, but without further context I'm not sure what the grounds are for deleting it. Without context, it's mildly offensive and non-PC. Are we going to start deleting items because they might hurt someone's feelings? --Marcos Malo 07:14, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

• If it's not obviously racist to you, then perhaps it's actually subtly racist.

Um, it's racist. A picture of a black man with "Ya Gonna Get Raped" is racist. it's not funny. it's racist. - 66.177.138.113 (Talk • Contribs (del) • Block (rem-lst-all) • Whois • City • Proxy? • WP Edits • Checkuser) 19:35, 7 Aug 2005

Comment

Please sign your edits with --~~~~ and do consider logging in as a named user when posting to "vote" pages such as this one. As for the page itself? Unlikely that a joke about rape could be somehow redeemed by picking someone of some other colour or color to pose for this photo. --Carlb 22:10, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I don't understand what this guy is trying to say. Is he trying to imply that the term "rapist" is a race-exclusive term? Blacks are hardly the only race that has rapists. In fact, there are other "You gonna get raped" images on the Internet, and the men featured in such images vary in race. Hell, there's one with Mario. The joke doesn't discriminate against blacks. --EvilZak 23:24, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

You might want to study the history of racism in the United States. You might find that there is a meme of black man as rapist, often used to justify lynchings of random people (random except for their skin color). Don't expect everyone elses experiences to be analogous to your own limited experience. The fact that there are other images doesn't really lessen the impact of this particular message. If you want a funny image (and I think we can all agree that is what we are here for), upload the mario one. --Marcos Malo 23:51, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Seems to be the same author as this fine template (original wording was "...make her tell everyone it was a miscarriage or I'd do it again..."); might be worth checking contribs for a pattern here? --Carlb 01:07, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Keep Amusing in the context of the page it was on. On a related note, when did we start deleting on the basis of tastefulness? --Abc 08:03, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC) Template:Babystub

Keep. The community needs to know these things.--47Monkey 04:55, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite. How about using a cartoon character, or some character not stereotyped as a rapist by racist people? Remember that it does not need to be realitstic or based on somebodies beliefs (racist or nonracist) or whatnot to be funny. How about using Evil Bert instead, unless accusing muppets of being rapists is somehow racist? Face it, when Orion Blastar is starting to make sense, it is one seriously messed up issue. --Orion Blastar 14:45, 11 Aug 2005 (CDT)

What's the huge rush to delete topics that just need a make over? Swear to Spaghetti, some of you are worse than the uptight control freaks on wikipedia. Oh, wait. Some of you ARE uptight control freaks over on wikipedia. My bad. (I think I am seeing the deletion of articles without the normal processes of VFD or QVFD. Is it possible that an 'op is doing this arbitrairily?) --Marcos Malo 23:42, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

It's common practice here for Sysops to delete (some) pages without consulting other users or admins. Most of the stuff that is deleted without going through VFD is truly irredeemable garbage, and QVFD exists largely for regular users to list such pages so that they are visible to admins, not necessarily to open them up for voting (though it's not unusual for an admin or other user to move a page from QVFD to regular VFD). Do you have any idea how worthless and cluttered this site would be if every page had to go through VFD before being deleted? Just because Uncyclopedia is a parody site doesn't mean that we encourage stupid pages. Quite the contrary. --Rcmurphy KUN 00:44, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me on that. And you're right, there does seem to be a great deal of stupid stuff. Still, I wonder: what are the guidelines, if any, for instant deletion? Is it completely arbitrary? Also, what is the policy for redirects? Can a sysop redirect articles to his own articles for the purposes of attention whoring? (Example: Kevin_Mitnick) This last seems to be an abuse of powers, since it forecloses on anyone from writing on the topic of Kevin Mitnick. What is to stop a sysop from redirecting a bunch of related words in order to monopolize a topic?

I'd say the guidelines for instant deletions are the same as the QVFD guidelines. The vast majority of instant deletions are very short pages - even horrifically bad pages are usually VFD'd if they're more than a few sentences. If I come across a short page that I think has no worth and no potential whatsoever, I'll delete it; but if I see a page that, say, offends me personally or is about a subject that I find boring or inherently unfunny, then no, I won't delete it because there's a good possibility someone else would have a laugh over it. Now, other admins can review deleted pages (i.e. see the deleted contents) and restore them if they want, so there is the possibility of some review that way. I think most admins would also be reasonable if asked to restore a deleted page by a regular user - I've done it before and I know some other guys have too. Finally, redirects can be done by any user, not just admins (the command is "#REDIRECT [[(page to redirect to)]]") and they can be overridden by clicking on the "Redirected from [[(page)]]" link and editing from there. So presumably redirects can be controlled in the same way as any other element of a wiki - by having many users iron them out.

These, of course, are just my views. Other admins may have differing stances on the issues.

This discussion is way too serious for Uncyclopedia.--Rcmurphy KUN 05:18, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Rewrite

In its present form, it's just another so-and-so-is-ghey page that could be about anyone and therefore delete-worthy. Rewrite to jump on clichés specific to this person (for instance, the tiresome «I am Mike Idd's mom» thing - claim that she's slept around enough that she had to get a maternity test to know if the kid was actually hers?). --Carlb 15:46, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I don't see why not. It is possible that, though under extreme conditions it could be liquid or solid, those conditions have never been met. And I second the motion to Rewrite and Move. --Spintherism 19:48, 6 Aug 2005 (UTC)
