This still needs a lot of work, barring the fact that I'm very uncomfortable with any article openly encouraging the animosity between both Uncyclopedias. The grammar is very poor and there are few actual jokes. Please fix it up. -RAHB 05:45, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Seconded. I added the Wikia "anthem" to make this article more balanced (making the animosity seem like a mere friendly competition seems like an okay approach, as long as all the jokes aren't against Wikia since this article is basically on both sites). As a cross-wiki project, this article really should be improved, that's why I stuck the WIP tag on it on the other site. It definitely needs more humor, and if you can poke fun at the quirks of the admins of BOTH sites, then it would be more balanced. Yes, that would include me too, since I'm an admin on the Wikia site, though I edit here too on occasion. I was tempted to huff the article outright on the other site, since it does link directly to the fork (that would be this site), and we are not allowed to use Wikia resources to advertise sites outside of Wikia. Moreover, it might encourage new users to go to the fork instead, which is not in the interests of the Wikia site, and anything not in the interests of the Wikia site is going to get huffed there. I decided against deleting the article there in the hopes that a cross-wiki project would help rebuild burned-out bridges between users of the two wikis. But to be effective in this goal, the article will have to be a good quality article by the standards of both sites, which is going to be difficult. As it stands now, quite a bit of work is still needed. -- Simsilikesims(♀UN) Talk here. 00:36, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Yes, agreed. I too wanted to huff it outright but I'm feeling the same hopefulness that this might make things better between sites. I don't predict it'll be successful within most stretches of the imagination, but I'm eager to be proven wrong. -RAHB 03:25, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
