Who would know where to find crappy short cow-boy stories which to parody. I have started but it is hard to parody something you haven't actually seen much of. For this. I was thinking of either taking it in the direction of a western set in modern times or a western set back "then" with modern themes? --SirDJ~Irreverent 12:56, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
A used book store? I don't really know. Amazon probably has some collections of western short stories. If you happen to live near (or in) the Library of Congress, they have a bunch on microfilm (I kid you not. Congress must be fun). Googling such tales is a possibility, but "western", "cowboy". I'm not a western type of guy, I reckon. I was once told that there wasn't enough room in this town for the both of us. "This town" was a different town, at the time. I moved. Then, the indians attacked my stagecoach, but I distracted them with a well-timed pointing out of the gold "in them thar hills". SirModusoperandiBoinc! 14:54, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Hay dood. I'm finally having a go at recording some audio for Mah Nà Mah Nà (doo doo doo-doo doo) and there are a couple of things I'd like clarified. First of all, in the lead, when you have ad insanitanum instead of the slightly more popular ad insanitum (135 google hits as opposed to 2), is that entirely intentional? Also, is it okay if I leave out the history section? The segue is nice in the article but I don't think it would work so well in audio, without the videos present. --Pleb SYNDROMECUNmedicate(butt poop!!!!) 23:55, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm don't want you going the way of Braydie or Sbu, so don't do too much admin-type stuff. They burned themselves out, I think. Plus, Braydie's computer was made of wicker, which made his 20,000,000 admin-related edits more work than they really needed to be. I blame myself for Sbu...I let you pawn the mahna mahna virus off on her. Still, her adminness probably didn't help. Remember this message? I love nostalgia. Anyways, I'm even being lazy and copy/pasting this to your talk from my archives. I'd recommend you do the same (the lazy part, I mean). It's not a 100 yard dash.

Good day Sir Modus! Hea, looks like we have another sysop who takes an interest in VFD! Yay!!! /me runs around the room cheering!.... I must admit I'm a tad confused as to what you are doing with the good old {{VFDc}} template over on VFD though... for example. You appear to be putting it onto every article which you have deleted. Um? Now perhaps I have lost my marbles. Well, truth is I never had many to start with, but I thought that we used that VFDc thinggymebob for when an article had been "kept" rather than when it's just deleted. Normally when I archive the VFD page I just look for the ones which have a red link (to tell me they are huffed) and the kept ones are marked with "VFDc" as well as a comment being left by the admin to the effect that it was them that kept it. Normally admins don't bother saying anything in the comment section when they delete, I guess cos the details are available in the huff log. Umm... I hate to point fingers, but... Um? Sausages? :-) MrN 15:51, Jul 2
Yeah, what he said, but less rambly. Also, I automatically click on VFDc tagged articles to put the VFD kept template on the talk page - it's very handy, as long as it's only on kept articles. Would you mind awfully? Finally, some kind of amusing comment such as you often make at this point. One about monkeys. --UU - natter15:58, Jul 2
Or trousers. Comments about trousers are much better than comments about monkeys in my view. Unless they are about sausages. Oh. I'm rambling again? Anyway... Did you see the game last night? MrN 16:04, Jul 2
Why must you fill my talkpage with lies? I, as a competent and well trained admin, with more than mumble years of adminish experience under my belt, would never do something so silly.

People have been shot in the pants for just giving an ICU with out leaving a fix message you know... /me puts trousers over head and awaits the expected ban...MrN 16:46, Jul 2
I didn't add the ICUs. I noticed the pages on QVFD, went to the pages, and people had tagged the pages with ICU (frequently just before I got there). If there is blame to be had, it falls on shoulders other than mine. I'm just taking baby steps in to this whole "admin" thing. I plan to mess up other places in other ways, later. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 17:15, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

trousers... It's all good. I noticed that you had not huffed Spot. (oh it's gone!) A lot would have, but I see where you are coming from in wanting it kept. If you are happy that everything below a certain point on QVFD is OK to be archived you can put {{QVFDc}} at said place and that let's us Poopsmiths know that it's OK to archive from that point down... ;) Fun this admin stuff eh? MrN 17:33, Jul 2
I'm more an inclusionist than a deletionist. I think we should at least give a crappy page enough time to prove that it won't be uncrapulated by its author before we huff it (hence ICU/WIP, etc). As for {{QVFDc}}, that's how I divide groceries at the checkout. That triangular plastic bar is soooo last millenium. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 17:54, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Amen to that. I have put a fair bit of effort into getting rid of our old crap so that we can get some nice fresh stuff into it's place for a while... The fresh poo at least encourages the new users to stick around long enough for them to learn to produce that which is of a less pungent nature. A well placed {{ICU|~~~~~|fix=Nice start, but you need to work on this some more|sub=short}} will often keep the other admins and their nasty deletionist hufmasters at bay... Anyway, I'm filling your talk page with pointless pants again, so I bid you good day sir. MrN 18:04, Jul 2

I need something. An image for Goldilocks and the Three Bears. So far the images are just so-so, but I need something that can punch it up and do two things: 1) Have people go "Oh my GOD!" in a good way, and "Oh my GOD!" in shocked, forgotten how to breath sense of the word.
I love you, but you couldn't have picked a worse time. Normally, it feels like I work all the time. Currently, I work all the time. For example, I just got home from work, and in eight hours I'm going back. If you can wait a few weeks (maybe a month) for shit to settle down, I can. Until then, it's all I can do just to stay awake. Try asking the most recent PotM. That'll learn 'im. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 22:28, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

hi I would like to enquire if this article Magibon article is good enough to be moved to the mainspace. It failed on grounds that the subject was of relative unnoteworthy or something like that. However reccently Wiki P has a version of it by itself. Therefore if it could had in very least gotten approval by a certain Admin at wiki P, could that mean it could gather approval from an admin of uncyclopedia. If the article is bad, I will employ constructive efforts of rehabilitating it. Perhaps making it more like a satire of wikiP's article. But until that, I haven't a slight clue of how to salvage this article.

Oh...well, the rest of it disappeared, so I took out the last bit. Speaking of whoring, did you read that thing I wrote that one time? It was awesome. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 21:08, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Well, you were not actually whoring anything in your text, so I did not think it was really helping the page. I did leave it there for a while though. There is no reason not to have a link to your user page on there should you wish. Speaking of that thing you wrote that one time... I would have loved to have read it, and maybe even contributed, but I did not know that you had written it... :-) MrN 21:19, Jul 29
My entry there was a joke, which is more important than any mere link to that thing I wrote that one time. There's plenty enough article whoring on my own userpage to suit me. I feel little need to spread it around. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 21:50, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't see where it's a feud. I made some unchallenged changes while RAHB was online but you reverted them. Please allow people to make changes to popular political figures. If only one person is allowed to rule the page, it shortchanges the rest of the community. --OrkaWinfrey 07:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
It isn't a stub. It's quite a long article. Just because it has less than seven headers doesn't mean it's a stub. A stub is just short overall. A page could have zero headers and not be a stub, while a page could have 20 headers but be a stub. That's what this is about, right? Or is there more that I don't care to really look up cause I'm lazy? --MegaPleb•Dexter111344•Complain here 07:34, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm not going to go through every edit to see exactly what the both of you have verted or reverted or rereverted. I look at the page's history and see a revert war, with a steady degeneration of the level of discourse in the "edit comment" section. You and RAHB need to get together and come to a consensus on that page. If you can't, the both of you need to agree to never touch that page again. If you can't do either of those, I will ban you both. A revert war helps no one. Not you. Not RAHB. Most importantly, it does not help the page. You can both win, call it a draw, or lose. The choice, I leave up to you. The page is the thing. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 07:40, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
So what you're saying is that if one person decides to behave as cybersquatter on one page, no one is allowed to make changes on that page without consulting the bully first? I'm sorry but in the 3 years I've contributed to Uncyclopedia (under one alias or another) I have yet to run across such a situation. --OrkaWinfrey 07:53, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
No. What I'm saying is that if two people get into a pissing contest, either they both have to work together or they both have to walk away. You both have to be the bigger man. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 08:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
I was told there would be milk and cookies. Anyways, I've had the Obama page on my watchlist for a while because the author seems to have disappeared, allowing it to endure the typical assault of edits to a page about a known figure. I cleaned up a lot of the mess, reverted bad faith edits, and then Orka and I got into this little war. Seeing the disturbance it caused, I've opted to take the page off my watchlist and discontinue editing it. If Orka decides he would like to discontinue editing it, that's fine too. I don't plan on editing the page anymore unless it's a case of blatant vandalism. I also don't care to point fingers, so while I could easily explain what this whole mess was about, I won't bother with it, unless somebody would particularly like to know. -RAHB 08:57, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
The bigger man? The pissing contest? Why do you assume everyone who uses Uncylopedia is a man? This site, a spoof of wikipedia, should be just that and make no assumptions. The Barack Obama page is not a spoof of Wikipedia but some kind of bizarre one man media show. A parody of something that doesn't even exist. This is why I've been tagging it with rewrite tags and stubs. Thanks to RAHB, it looks like we have his permission to let the parodies and mocking begin! Thanks RAHB. Sincerely, --OrkaWinfrey 05:16, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
First of all, you're just as guilty of making assumptions as the rest of us. The assumption you immediately make is that we're trying to be discriminatory in some way or another. The assumption you make is that we're all a bunch of fascists who are against you. The world is against you. That's what I gathered from our little IRC chat the other night, and this confirms it. However, I digress. Do whatever you want to that page, I stand that I'll only revert in the case of blatant vandalism, which isn't what you've been doing, so therefore I take no interest in your edits. -RAHB 05:25, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Relax. Deep breaths. The bigger man is figurative. Two people fighting over a page (which is how it looked) is called a "pissing contest". As for the style of the Obama page; not everythig here is a direct spoof of Wikipedia. Nor should it be. All encyclopedia-style pages all the time would get boring. We have much more to offer than that, from bizarre one man media shows to parodies of things that don't even exist. If you don't like the style of a page, start a rewrite under your userpage, then when it's fleshed out ask on the Obama page if anyone minds you overwriting the current page with your version (include a link to your version so that people can compare the two). If no one says "nay" in a week or so, copy your version over the existing version and put "crazy rewrite of madness" or somesuch in the edit summary. Alternately, just edit it as you see fit. The worst thing that will happen is that someone will revert it. Lastly, since it's not a stub, don't tag it with the stub tag. Stub tags are for stubs. Extra lastly, thanks RAHB. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 07:18, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Figured I should tell you, Orka and I have just had a very productive conversation in IRC, and I think we've been able to mend our disagreements. I've taught her how to make a subpage, and she plans on rewriting her own version of the page, and has asked me to help out with it, which I intend to do as much as I can. We also had a nice discussion about the philosophy of humor, or some such. Then old Uncle Sam came down and told us one of his "back in the day" stories, and Granny tucked us into bed and read us stories, just like back in the old days. Anyways, I figured you'd like to hear that we had come to an agreement. (Though if Orka is reading this, I do recommend reading Modus's explanation above. I seem to have left that out in our conversation, at least parts of it.) Cheers to you, Captain. -RAHB 07:25, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Hurrah! Also, Orka, I apologize for implying that you were a man. It was the moustache that threw me. Seriously though, that I managed to maintain some semblance of gender neutrality for so long in this conversation impresses even me, and my standards for such things are notoriously high. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 07:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
Thanks to RAHB for teaching me about the subpage process (which I promptly forgot). I never did take good notes. Since this isn't strictly a parody of wikipedia I've decided not to rewrite the page but make edits to its "media show" format whatever that is. And to MOdus: my moustache is only visible at certain times of day and under special full spectrum lighting. Nice talking to y'all and getting to know you better. See ya later! --OrkaWinfrey 04:59, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't quite see the correlation between sharing a milkshake and your disgusting link. Actually, I was kind of wondering how you relieve yourselves without, uh, how do I say this politely... having to launder your pants afterwards? --OrkaWinfrey 07:12, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia is filthy, isn't it? You should see their page on Latin. Disgusting! SirModusoperandiBoinc! 13:07, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Not only filthy, but completely lacking in humor and duller than the Barack Obama page. If they were a magazine they would be in the doctor's office right next to Highlights, Parents Magazine, and a pamphlet on eckzema. --OrkaWinfrey 04:50, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

This or this? Two vandalous edits makes the former worthwhile. I'm not too sure about the latter. I'm pretty sure that he won't improve, and doubt that he'll be back after his week-long timeout, anyway. Personally, I air on the side of cautious skepticism, hence "pretty sure...won't" and "doubt", rather than the absolutist terminology that would indicate a black or white view. Hopefully, he'll come back as a new man and promptly take the site to heights never before imagined. If not, the adminatti will make the ban permanent.

Doo doo doo-doo doo. Well, I finished recording the article (for certain values of "finished"). I don't want to upload it just yet though because it sucks, and also because it's 56 megabytes when I export it as a WAV file. It clocks in at 11 minutes, but still that's way too big. This is my first time manipulating audio quite this way with Audacity, so I'm not sure how compression works. You've done audios before, right? You know, recording and mixing and stuff? If so, do you have any pointers on how to make this manageable? (Yes, I'm still on dial-up for the time being.) --Pleb SYNDROMECUNmedicate(butt poop!!!!) 06:25, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Well...it's been a while since I've messed with Audacity's settings, but I'll try to help.
If you're using Audacity: Under "Preferences", hit the "Quality" tab and drop the sample rate (44100 is CD quality, every step under that gets a little bit worse. 22050 or 11025 should be okay).
If you don't have Audacity's MP3 plugin yet, it's here. That page has instructions which I won't repeat here, as they are there, which is where they are. There.
When saving, "Export as MP3" rather than wav. Wav is straight, uncompressed audio, which is why it's so big. MP3 is tiny and has giant, expressive eyes. You just want to put it in your pocket and keep it safe for ever and ever.
If you decide not to use Audacity, but are instead using a program that is not, or "anti", Audacity, do the same things, but in different places and in different ways. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 07:24, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Awesome. Thanks. I knew I could count on you. You're like that one muppet who was a vampire and people called him "count" because vampires are automatically nobility. That was a muppet, right? I got it down to a little over 5 megabytes but it's still too big to upload. I'll try reducing the bitrate to 32kbps and see if that's any more manageable. Please never listen to it because it's horrible. --Pleb SYNDROMECUNmedicate(butt poop!!!!) 03:24, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
I'll never listen to it. That would require clicking on links. I don't do that. Links are like the toilet seat, and things that links link to are the herpes. By that, I mean that links are an urban legend. Also, I lost my train of thought. And my spoon for mixing metaphors. If I had listened to your audio, I would congratulate you for mixing in the song with the text. But I didn't, so you're going to have to seek kudos from someplace else.

It works and it's annoying. It's win-win. The black background for the page name is annoying, it's too busy, and it posts to QVFD by IP rather than user.

The thing that you're forgetting to remember is: it's a talkpage. We ban people for editing other peoples' comments there.

Without rules there would be anarchy. Anarchy! Besides, talkpages are for talk, not for editing other peoples' contributions. Pagepages are for editing other peoples' contributions. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 06:53, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Yes, and yet some rules were meant to be broken. Not all of the time, but there are special cases. I personally think that this site should be about comedy first. Sometimes I fear that the rules get in the way of that. Actually, weren't most of the rules put in place to keep things funny instead of the random BS that was happening? This case wasn't for anything but for some fleeting wisps of comedy I found on this site, and I thought others might enjoy. Seems stupid for rules on this site get in the way of the comedy. But that's just one user's correct take on it. I'll just agree to disagree with you on this, and walk away. The Woodburninator (woodtalk) (woodstalk) 08:44, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
You can disagree. This won't change the fact that you're wrong. /me puts on serious face. There is a dividing line here. The wiki parts are for wikiing, the userpage parts are for page whoring, and talkpages are for talking. Each can be funny. There's nothing in the rules against that (and, if there were, I would be on the frontlines protesting such nonsense). I can't edit your userpage without your permission (with some minor exceptions), nor can I edit you out of a talkpage. On the talkpage in question, you edited out the contributions of others. That's a no no. "Temporary" or not, that makes baby Jesus cry. /me puts on clownface, juggles trout. Now, can we move on? My lunch is getting cold. Well, technically it's not my lunch.

Um. Yeah. I think that came about, in a roundabout way, from a discussion with a literalist/innerantist/fundamentalist/YEC on terms like "justice" and "mercy" and how their definitions change depending on whether we're using them to describe the actions of Man or when they're used to describe those of a deity (specifically one that metes out infinite reward or infinite punishment based on, not the finite crimes of finite lives, but the finite beliefs of finite believers and finite non-believers)...and being told, roughly, that:
-God is omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent, and perfect, Therefore...
-God's Word (capital W), the Bible (specifically either the innerant KJV or the even more innerant NIV, if memory serves), is perfect. Therefore...
-"The Bible is the literal and all-True (capital T True) Word of God" (and where it conflicts with the facts of the real world, it's the "interpretation" of those facts that's wrong, not the Bible), and Scripture states that:
-"We are all sinners, born of sin, born in sin, born to sin andslaves to sin" (Paul had issues),
-God hates sin,
-The finite sins of finite Man are infinite to an infinite God (which is wrong. A finite anything is infinitely small when compared to an infinite anything. But I digress),
-His justice and mercy are absolute and perfect,

The "national" language of a Province, eh? I hate the Notwithstanding Clause of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Why have a Constitution at all if you don't have to follow it? When the Americans ignore their Constitution, they do it illegally. Canada has a law that actually says it's okay to ignore the Nation's foundational Law (for five years). That's messed up.

Leet? There's a good page to clean up, if you think you're up to the task. A page written in Leet could work. I don't really know. Leet is incredibly hard to read (which, in my opinion, distracts considerably from what it's saying). Try thinking of the subject first, rather than the style.

You wanted me to look at your pages? I don't know what good it will do. The first is random and I know little about the second (except that the game demo kicked ass but the game itself was disappointing, apparently). I haven't played a Star Wars game since Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, which both kicked ass, and came out in 1997. Rediscovering that last tidbit also had the side effect of making me feel old. Thanks for that.
Note: a quick read of the latter brings up the following:
If a quote isn't the best thing ever, it's better off not being there at all. One awesome quote is better than six blah ones. Zero quotes is better than six blah ones.
Lose the bit on Harper. International people don't know who he is and Canadians, at least those from Canada, don't care who he is.
The page needs...more. Just what "more" is, I can't really say (not having played the game). If you get stuck, read Wikipedia's page on it.
Huh. So delete all the quotes? I thought that an Oscar Wilde quote was mandatory. Well I'll work on it again on Monday, I've got a lot of stuff to do this weekend. I'll just change the Harper bit to... George Bush or something. Whatever, maybe someone else will work on it over the weekend. --GDawg816 17:25, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
Did I say delete all the quotes? No. No, I did not. One quote can be good, if it's a good quote. Six is at least four too many. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 17:38, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Dear Modus, it appears we got off to a bad start. I came here to become a Wiki Administrator but unfortunately fell foul of a block by your good self for the offence of 'page blanking'. I wish to assure you I have , like, totally reformed and I wonder if you could please unblock me. I was anonymously logged on as an IP 83.70.240.253 but since you blocked that I am now a fully fledged member, User:IP83.70.240.253. I supplied even my date of birth but, frankly, was a bit wary of giving you my credit card details and the other stuff you asked for. IP83.70.240.253 15:41, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
This is considered blanking. Editing other people's posts on talkpages is bad. Thanks for being polite, but I'm going to let you stew for the remainder of your 24 ban anyway, so that you have a chance to think about what you've done. I'm not an unjust ass, I'm just a hardass. Seriously! When I sit down, it makes a clunk sound.
Lastly, if you "...came here to become a Wiki Administrator..." you'll never become an admin here. Our admins all had the honour thrust upon them against their will, like an epileptic attack. Not an attack of epilepsy, but a group of people who are epileptics attacking. It's quite a sight. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 15:52, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi, Mr IP, I simply deleted it because it was a bad stub. This is not a page:
Nigger Lips or Lippus Niglettus
The condition is often contracted from eating to much Fried chicken, eg. KFC.
Problems associated with "Nigger Lips"
The lips swell to an enormous size, making eating harder, and the people with the condition are often laughed at.
Worse, it's not even funny. Racist humour (or humour involving race) has to rise above itself, which is hard to pull off. I tried pulling off rising above myself, once. It hurt quite a bit. If you'd like me to restore it, follow the following steps that follow below:
Get an account
Ask me to restore the page
After I put the page under your userpage (which you'll only get after getting an account), work on it there. Flesh it out. Add pictures. Make it funny and/or satirical. Do not make it suck.
After its done, then and only then move it out to mainspace. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 22:19, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila[edit | edit source]
Considering that it's a page called Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila, it doesn't have a lot on Proxima Centauri or the aliens of Porrila. There's more on how to address them than there is on them. I know that they like mud. Make me like mud too. After reading the page, I'm still ignorant on Proxima Centauri, as well. Other than those minor gripes (and the awful quote. Only use a starter quote if it's better than the average of the page. It should be gold. If it's not, it shouldn't be there), it's cute.
For a second Pee Review, put "Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila (2nd review)" in the box in Pee Review, and replace "[[{{#sub:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|0|{{#ifeq:{{#rpos:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|(}}|-1||{{#rpos:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|(}}}}}}]]" part on the actual page for the Pee Review with Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila.

2. At the bottom, in the Create Entry box (which sounds more than a little bit filthy), put in "Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila (2nd review)" (less the quote marks)
3. Once the page loads (as Editing Uncyclopedia:Pee Review/Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila (2nd review)), replace
==={{subst:PRTitle|{{SUBPAGENAME}}}}=== (I don't know why it's different that what I wrote before, but I'm a mystery, even to me. It's the bit almost at the top, anyway)
with
===[[Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila]]===
4. After adding any comments or whatever to the page, save it.
5. Sit back and watch the power of the internet work for you. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 18:57, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
I've managed to get those troublesome banned users with their sockpuppets up. They will be dealt with. Adam and Eve has been reviewed and I'm working on it. Someone else helped with that one. I couldn't get it up myself. Your suggestions for Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila will keep me busy for some time with the others. I'll write some more on Ptoxima before I put it up again.
Who is Proxima Centauri? The Centaurians are sun worshipers. Proxima Centauri is the Great Lord Sun. I like being a god. When the sun is angry he sends flares that dry everything up and remind Centaurians of their sins. When the sun is genenous he drives weather systems that bring rain and mud.

Are you using AWB for that? I'm happy to do any such long winded stuff with MrN9001. If there is a template deleted with loads of links, I'm happy to do whatever you think is appropriate. I guess the trouble is that when the template is deleted, I don't have access to the code any more... If you leave the code and instructions for what needs to be done here I can take care of it.

The picture is in use, and its use is appropriate (or, at least, not too terribly inappropriate). It's "art". If there is one thing I know, it's art. I'm all cultured 'n' shit.
You don't remove pages from VFD. That's up to the Poopsmiths. It takes an eighty hour course to learn how to do it safely. After graduation, they get a badge and a uniform. There's just one of each. They have to share. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 20:26, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

It's Tuesday? Well, that explains where all these aardvarks came from. There is no hard and fast rule about re-noms. Unless it's Modus you are talking about, he does like it hard and fast, but that's beside the point. It's fair revenge for the article if you leave it a while so it can get it's own back on ya for sloppy VFDing. (VFDing is a word, I just said so). MrN 20:48, Nov 22
Aardvark is not a verb. It's a fruit. Also... I think one of the reasons that we require that people put the VFD tag on is because the articles author may have their account set-up so that it sends them an e-mail when the page is modified. So long as the page has the VFD tag added to the article before it's deleted the author will get the prod via e-mail, and can come back and request it to be restored to user space. Part of the idea of requiring the tag at the start of the nom was probably to allow the user time to return and defend their article before it's deleted. We delete many articles via VFD in far less time than would probably be required on average for someone to check their e-mail or even their Uncyc watchlists. Why am I saying this? Cos it's Tuesday. MrN 20:57, Nov 22
Well, it's only Tuesday on the metric calendar, and aardvark is both a verb and a fruit. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 21:04, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, VFD is be running faster than MrN to the bathroom after a particularly strong curry. But enough about my bowels, and to be honest I'm not sure why you mentioned them in the first place. That aside. I was wondering if you could let me have a copy of Stoat Molesting? Had I been there to defend it on VFD I would have, but well... That was a quick vote.

So I'm continuing with my occasional quest to sort out as many lonely pages as I can, either by creatively linking them or employing the bludgeon of VFD, when I come across this from everyone's favourite fifth Gert. My first instinct was VFD, as it's pretty random. Then my second was "it's Gert, and it looks like he's forgotten it - perhaps a move into his userspace?" My third involved lunch, and I acted on it. My fourth thought was to check with an admin type if they mind me shifting this page to Gert's userspace and QVFDing the redirect, or if that would earn me a speedy trip to bansville. So here I am. What say you? --UU - natter13:48, Nov 28

Thank you... I've always found it to be polite to thank people for the things they have done for you, especially when it is a vote for a fine literary work. People don't say "thank you" that much anymore. Instead, they say "thanks" or "tyvm". That frustrates me, because I don't know what "tyvm" is even supposed to mean. Thanks for voting.

It was brought to my attention on IRC that Fag has uploaded his image multiple times under different names, and had it huffed multiple times by request on QVFD. KingKitty brought this up to me, and I don't particularily like him, and I do like Fag (in an entirely hetero way...), so I won't be too disappointed if this allegation falls through.

I want your opinion on something, this is not whoring[edit | edit source]
I wrote an article on another John Scherer here: John_Scherer_(Honest_Businessman). Basically, its an article praising a less well known John Scherer. I think it avoids any issue with John W. Scherer (the whiny one), but it might run some risk of cyber-bullying or vanity against John Scherer (the non-dipshit). John Scherer (the non-dipshit) is relatively unknown, although he does run a decent sized firm named after himself and has authored a book. His website is http://xxx.scherercenter.com/ and more information about him can be found here http://xxx.speaking.com/speakers/johnscherer.html. (Links blanked to prevent the sites from seeing a link from uncy). He is more famous than many of the "internet celebrities" on E.D, and the article isn't about him, but rather a veiled attack at John W. Scherer (the whiny one). I wanted to run the idea by an admin before posting it.--Mnbvcxz 17:44, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

There are too many quotes. If you like all of them, you can use the "option" tag to show only a few at a time (if "option" is new to you, go to my userpage and hit edit. They're right at the top).

Since all the aristocracy-judging is done for the image category, I was just wondering if you could help me out, and make a few of the changes you mentioned when you were judging the image. I had a lot of the same thoughts you did, but while I do have the gimp, I also have no idea how to use it. Do you think you could make the kid and his shadow look a bit less out of place, and also possibly switch the image to sepia tones? If it'll help at all, the source picture for the kid is here. - P.M., WotM, & GUN,Sir Led Balloon(Tick Tock)(Contribs) 04:42, Dec 21
Okay. I use an old version of Paint Shop Pro (because that's what I had first, and I'm to old and cranky to "learn" something "new"). It doesn't do the neato effects that others do (or it does, but does them poorly) so...here goes...
1rd, I grayscaled and reduced the colour depth to 4bit, here, but that didn't look right, so...
2th, I started over, grayscaled and reduced the colour depth to 2bit, which also didn't look right, here, so...
3nd, I opened up the first one, added the second as a layer over top of it and fiddled with its transparency until I got this, which looks pretty close.
4st, I tried one last time, with the first three (with varying transparencies), and the original as a top layer with the "effect" of black pencil (and set to "darken" and a little bit transparent), and got this.
Lastly, and unnumbered, if you want it sepia tone, you'll want to tint the whole 'chop, not just the pic. Otherwise, it's a b/w border with a sepia tone middle, which is probably not what you're going for. If you want his shadow gone, just cut around it. If you want the shadow less dark, cut just the shadow, paste it as a new layer, then fiddle with its transparency until it looks right. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 07:18, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Dune, that is. A great book, by the way, thanks for the recommendation. I just wish I had time to start the sequels, but I have to read the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn now... Also, is the movie any good? - P.M., WotM, & GUN,Sir Led Balloon(Tick Tock)(Contribs) 01:25, Dec 27
Which movie? Lynch's Dune got 63% on Rottentomatoes (mostly, I assume, because it's so damn pretty), while the Sci-Fi channel's Dune got 33%. The latter is cheap looking, but it keeps most of the twisting story that Lynch's version abandoned. There's also an extended version of Lynch's Dune, which I haven't seen, but it sucked bad enough that Lynch had his name swapped for Alan Smithee (not that I'm a big fan of Lynch's opinion. He seems to think that "weird" is a substitute for "good". But, again, his version is just so damn pretty). After you read Dune Messiah and Children of Dune (the two weakest of the series, I found), you can watch the Sci-Fi channel's Children of Dune (80% on RT) which, confusingly, covers both of those books.
Basically, if you've got a big TV, Lynch's version kicks ass (but loses all but a few of the plotlines of the book), while Sci-Fi's two miniseries are better on a small TV (and try to keep more of the story). SirModusoperandiBoinc! 01:44, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
Hmmm... well, it sounds like neither version really captures the book, which I suppose is understandable, considering how layered the story is. I guess I'll check out Lynch's version to start, and maybe the sci-fi remake later if I'm in the mood to have a chuckle at some typical made-for-TV acting and special effects. - P.M., WotM, & GUN,Sir Led Balloon(Tick Tock)(Contribs) 05:18, Dec 27
The Lynch version's paucity of story (I saw it years before I read the book, and even then knew that something had gone horribly wrong) is doubly saddening because, again, it's so damn pretty. From the architecture to the costumes to the whole damn universe (with some minor exceptions, like the start of the worm riding sequences), the world is so beautifully filled out...so real. Seeing the Sci-Fi version after reading the books, the story is done pretty well, but the world is a mix of tiny sets (the great dunes of Arakis would apparently fit in my garage with space left over for, um, space), dopey hats (Do. Pee. Bad enough to earn both my distain and a mention on the page here on Dune, the title of which escapes me at the moment) and green screen (which, not being real, doesn't looks "right", and not being there when the actors are acting means that it rarely brings out the best from the actors. The sietch, while a real set if memory serves, comes across as about as real as the tunnel in the original Star Trek where Spock mind-melded with the blancmange that ate miners).
Neither version is great, but the Sci-Fi version at least keeps enough of the drama to let a nerd sink his nerdy teeth in. In other words, a true fan will like the newer one more, but will still bitch vehemently about every little detail that fails to match the version that only exists in his fevered and obsessive mind (which, I think, is why the newer one faired worse on RT; because it had more things to be wrong).

Alright, boyo? You voted for an article about me. This means that you're entitled to a free slice of laver pizza from Lloydios, the greatest pizzeria in all of Caernarfon.
You voted for UnNews:New Range of Low-Tech Personal Music Players Released on VFH which entitles you to this FREE copy of the 1921 hit single I Wouldn’t Take Her To a Dog Fight, 'Cause I’m Afraid She’d Win by Brigadier Billy Bell-Ende and his Jazz Rhythm Orchestra which is only slightly scratched.
ps, this isn't whoring, I'm merely mentioning it here as a courtesy because it mentions you. --Mnbvcxz 02:44, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I don't consider it whoring if it's about me and/or any of the many great things that I do (like discover the Moon. I did so do that!) Also, thanks for the mention, but by writing that story you've just jinx'd VFH unto the seventh generation! Oh, woe he who is you! SirModusoperandiBoinc! 03:50, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I had some suggestions that the article should be in unsigpost. It is a little in-jokey for unNews, but it might inspire people to vote on VFH, so I'm divided over where it should go. --Mnbvcxz 04:05, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, great. This is just great! Who left the gate open? SirModusoperandiBoinc! 04:42, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I could always trim it down, and I thought is wasn't vanity as long as you were writing about someone else. Its not so much about the article as it is a thinly veiled attempt to keep the momentum up on VFH. --Mnbvcxz 05:19, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
I don't have any problem with it staying as UnNews.

I was about to ask you if you want me to do the actual featuring after the vote, do it yourself or do a joint venture. Last year I tried to do it on the spot of the new day (0000 GMT) so we don't queue them up thereby keeping an element of "surprise". What do you think?

I'll enter December's Top on the 16th, then leave it to you. That way I won't ruin my surprise, even though I'll already know what won. And, no, I won't "whip out another masterpiece on the spot". I'm not your puppet, man! SirModusoperandiBoinc! 22:58, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

I see your point, but we're back to featuring one article every day. If you want to wait a few more hours to put it on 18 January so the article gets some of the feature time it deserves, that's fine by me.

You can always revert bad edits (put a suitable comment in the "Summary" box). Try to talk it out on the page's talkpage (or the user's talkpage, if it's not an IP). If it continues, tell an admin (like me), and I can raise the protection level of the page to prevent IPs from editing it (but that's a last resort, as this is supposed to be a content-free encyclopedia that anyone can edit).

On a related note, some people have been complaining about Joe9320 "stealing" their material on the wiki. Now, "King Joseph" as he calls himself, isn't the most mature person on the wiki. However, I think that any claim of "stealing" copyleft material is against the spirit of the wiki, and sets a bad precedent. Now, there may (or may not) be stuff in userspace that should be considered "owned lock stock and barrel" by the author, like some essays, "personal issues" and such. But, the "stealing" was over a copy-left image and copying a mainspace article into an unbook page.
There might be some possible issues with VFH credit stealing, but overall, I don't think we allow such invalid "ownership" claims. If you have time, since you're an admin, could you remind those making claims of "theft" that anything written on here is in the creative commons, and can't be "stolen". --Mnbvcxz 19:52, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Images that don't meet our high standards of and decency[edit | edit source]
I've been doing some image categorization, and I've been finding a couple "bad" images. I found a couple which were in "lists of unused images", so their presence on this wiki doesn't really have any humor value. I placed the first one on VFD, but I'm hesitent to place more on there, in case they get speedily kept. So far, I found:
Image:Doublemint Twin.jpg this one isn't that bad, but it still has exposed nipples, and is unused (outside of its ironic use on a list of unused images)
Should this type of stuff be kept or not. (If they were actually funny in context, I would say keep, but they are close to being unused as is possible). --Mnbvcxz 02:12, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Damn it Bowser, Yoshi is mine! ~Orian57~~Talk~02:19 25 January 2009
Unused images go on QVFD, because they're orphans and nobody cares about orphans. *sniff*SirModusoperandiBoinc! 05:15, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Well, these technically aren't orphans. They are on a list of unused images. Which technically makes them used images. Since they did get put on userpage archive thing, I assume somebody (sorta) wanted to keep them.
I say that an image being on a page of unused images still qualifies as an unused image. I've got a bumpersticker that states same. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 05:36, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Ok, then the raises the issue of what you plan to do with the rest of the images on that unused image archive. I don't think they all should be deleted. Some of them might be funny somewhere, and its self defeating to delete an image then have someone re-upload a similar one a few weeks later. --Mnbvcxz 05:48, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
If someone cares enough to list them on QVFD they'll get huffed. Otherwise, they'll just sit there with those sad eyes, awaiting adoption by a user. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 05:53, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Just a quick point - we don't need QVFD for that, we got unused pictures under special pages. We only need MadMax to start doing something about it O_O ~ 11:12, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

The stub template is no protection (the construction one is). I've restored the page to User:Alex001/Singapore Airlines. When it's done move it out to mainspace. Good luck. Dying is easy.

This more of a crusade against a shock image Image:Ultimatehentaimanuever.gif than anything else. Anyway, the said image was uploaded by User:Uncreative Username, a permanbanned user and known sockpuppeter, on Dec 2. 2008. He was permabanned on Dec 27, 2008. On the Jan 8th, 2009, I removed the offensive image from the article Rape, orphanizing it.
On Jan 11, 2009, a new user, called User:Everybody or Nobody placed the shock image on this userpage. That is Everybody or Nobody's only edit. Anyway, I was thinking it was weird 3 days after I orphanized a shock image, it appeared on the userpage of a new user. It looks like it might be an attempt to save a shock image by a perma-banned user through the use of sock puppetry. --Mnbvcxz 17:10, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

On a related note should we have somewhere to place questionable images? I don't want to put them of QVFD as they are not unquestionably "unused", and I could see how someone might want to keep them. And, this is starting to turn into a "private hitlist." --Mnbvcxz 19:56, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I assume you were to trying to prevent the category from being created. However, category redirects don't work, ever. Generally, category redirects create "hidden" categories, they do not move stuff that categories to the redirecting category. Hence, it generally creates a hidden category under the redirect. (I'm currently working on re-cat stuff that categorizes to a redirecting category.)
In this case, however, anything can still categorize to that category, without generating a blue link, so I think it defeats its purpose. --Mnb'z 18:41, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

The best advice I can give to start comes in two parts:
1nd - Go to the Reefer Desk and read the intro. Most of what I would tell you to start you off is right there. It's right there, man!
2rd - Futz around with Photoshop. Photoshopping is a very different skillset than writing. Both can be improved simply by tinkering.
After that, it's all gravy, baby. Oh, pics for improvement go on that Reefer Desk thingy (there are more that just my eyes there to help out). SirModusoperandiBoinc! 08:38, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Wow, ok thanks alot man! By the way, did you get a chance to look at my first picture? It is not hilarious or anything but it took me flippin for ever to do because I was figuring everything out still, but do you think its good or no? Be honest! It is going in a new article of mine about balloon animals. ~SirTagstit • VFH • NotM • PEEING • CPT • RotM • BFF 08:42, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
"Flippin forever" I love it when people are polite. It's so fucking funny. That is all. Also Hi Modus! ~Orian57~~Talk~08:44 14 February 2009
Work from the highest resolution images you can find (see how the balloon animal is all "pixely"?). The main pic isn't great, either. In any event, the relative blur between the two pics is mismatched (the balloon, being slightly farther away than the people, should be at least as blurred as the people).
If you're going to airbrush an object out of a picture, make sure to get the whole thing (the fourth tree from the right is partly there and partly not).
Where the balloon is "behind" the tree is incompletely 'chopped. The balloon's "tail" and "leg" look like they're sort of wrapping around the tree, rather than being behind it. Clearly, this is ridiculous.
Good work, and good luck. The photoshopper gets no respect. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 09:14, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Alright thanks alot man! I will try to fix my current one up with the wrap around (I see what you are saying) and work on some more higher quality ones. Thanks alot! ~SirTagstit • VFH • NotM • PEEING • CPT • RotM • BFF 18:04, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

...I heard you love the cock. Or is that The Led Balloon? I dunno. Anyway, I just wanted to remind you of that old proverb: if you love him, let him go, and if he doesn't return then he was probably run over or eaten by a dog or something. That's why you should probably keep him inside a high fence when you're not undergoing human-cock trust exercises. As the proverb goes.

The ones that have faded away have been replaced by new, more compact, more powerful, cheaper writers. I'm still here. I should be writing, but I broke my computer, replaced the motherboard, remembered that it was still under warranty, got it fixed, put it back in...and now I'm trying to "defuckulate" it.

When the original went tits up, I swapped it out, uninstalled all of the software that was specifically for the old board, installed the software for the new one, and it all worked. The same did not work when going the other way. I'd be pissed instead of annoyed, but I'm really kind of surprised that I got away with it at all. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 17:18, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Geek Alert! I'm finally back to write again and everyone's gone. Oh well, you're still here... and Mhaille and a few others. I was interested in coming back strong, and really contributing instead of just pissing people off. I'm just wondering if it's even worth it since the community morale seems to be so low nowadays... ~Formerly Annoying Crap 08:58, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
There was a bit of a dip in enthusiasm for Uncyc a while back (VFH was in a sorry state and we were featuring every other day), but more recently there has been rather an upturn. VFH is doing well again, and NOTM has been doing very well, with a number of good new users coming through. I would say that the site is buzzing again, and that we are knocking out some really good stuff at the moment. In addition, this is not my talk page. Why am I here? What's my purpose in life? and... Where is the TV remote control? MrN 09:10, Mar 7

I need to update a new version to remove a little bit of text in the corner of the image, but it's protected or something. Or should I upload it separately so you can upload the new version and then delete my duplicate? -Sockpuppet of an unregistered user 20:54, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
1nd: That bit in the bottom right corner? I don't think that it's distracting. Rather, as a part of the original image, it's probably appropriate to keep. Also, more importantly...
2rd: It's not your image. If SunnyChow wants to change it, then he/she/it/them can ask for it to be unlocked. (Editing other's words is fine, but as a 'chopper I'm wary of editing their pics, no matter how minor the edit, without their permission) SirModusoperandiBoinc! 21:03, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

I've obviously not paid enough attention to the PLS rules. After Heerenveen said he would arrange the PLS in gerrycheevers' thread, I was all like "oh awesome, gerrycheevers is that ice hockey star! Also, I should start working on an article to enter into the competition", and I still am, User:Nachlader/World Wildlife Fund, which I started about week before Heerenveen announced the start of the competition. I even told the user who is helping me with the images that I intended to put the article forward for PLS. So I ask again with my desperation, is there absolutely no chance that my article can enter? --Nachlader-kun "whisper sweet nothings into thine ear..." 16:13, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
Is that fair? Would that mean that I could enter that thing that I wrote that one time? Would that be fair? Seriously, it wouldn't. It was awesome. (Of course, I'm not the head dude of PLS, and my opinion, IMO, is moot. Moot!) SirModusoperandiBoinc! 16:36, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Hopefully I have managed to avoid breaking the intertubes with my rather rashly given new sysop powers, but I was wondering if I could ask ya about clearing out this thinggy. I was not sure if you just remove them when it's time, or if the text gets saved anywhere? Probably the thing which is confusing me the most is that the last few times I have seen yourself do it you appeared to be removing each FA one at a time? Well, I say that's the thing which is confusing me the most, which is obviously not true, but I'm sure you don't want me to start telling you about the thing with the thing... You know? With the platypus? Before anyone says anything, that platypus was pregnant before I even got there. MrN 12:39, Mar 12
You remove them when it says to do so. I do it one at a time because I'm a flake, and it minimizes the chance that I'll break the internet. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 12:43, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

There is some double voting on NOTM. Its mostly due to the nomination of Sonje, which some users (mostly noobs) feel is invalid as she hasn't wrote a full article yet. However, she has done several good photo chops. Also, TKF changed the rules for NOTM qualifications to allow Sonje to be validly nominated.

It's not a template. That would be callous and impersonal, whereas I'm all warm and fuzzy. Instead, it's hidden text at the top of here. Just hit edit (it's right below the "failed" text for VFH). SirModusoperandiBoinc! 18:51, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
