Slashy

I just wanted to say that I was sincere in saying you have a right to condemn me for insulting Slashy. In retrospect, I think a lot of that post was in response to being accused of various vague bad things by Slashy, including "being alone" which was puzzling. I think it was also influenced by some people's reactions to the WBC and their ideology. While you have a point that insults rather than rational debate are a lower form of discourse, I respectfully disagree with your implied statement that I hate Slashy. I don't hate Slashy. I hate what he was trying to do to uncyclopedia however, and when he made it personal by attacking me, I did handle that in a human fashion, perhaps not the best thing I've ever done in the world, but I honestly don't believe in turning the other cheek, and I was only acting according to my nature. And there is a time and place for everything, even things that are ugly, in my opinion.

Once again, I respect your views, and thank you for letting me know about your feelings.

Hi. I created my account today and wrote one article footbag - the article is still up and works fine but I get an error report when I view it logged in and when I log in (the login still works but it gives me an error report) I also get error reports when I view all the options next to my log in name along the top. Help?

The error I get is as follows -- Database error A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: UPDATE `watchlist` SET wl_notificationtimestamp = NULL WHERE wl_title = 'Footbag' AND wl_namespace = '0' AND wl_user = '29361' from within function "User::clearLastVisited". MySQL returned error "1290: The MySQL server is running with the --read-only option so it cannot execute this statement (84.40.25.226)". --

You're very determined to keep LRGS off Uncyclopedia aren't you? Well, I applaud your adherence to the rules, but could you explain what's so bad about having a page that only 1000 people get? I understand it's Vanity, sure, but what exactly is the problem with Vanity? Thanks, • T to the Roooy • Proud to be Say 'Hi!' 18:22, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, yes, yes; I've read all that, but why is it a problem? Is it a question of hosting power? Of using up entries that could be better as something else? No, not that... I've heard that Uncyclopedia is supposed to be a parody of a proper encyclopedia, and what better way than to have ridiculously long articles on incredibly obscure things? And why are you allowed to delete user pages?--• T to the Roooy • Proud to be Say 'Hi!' 16:10, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Douglas Quaid

your adick was having some fun with deletion log and I saw you deleted this one on the grounds of "Vanity? Not funny either way". Well, I guess it doesn't really matter, but anyway, answering your question, it's the name of Schwarzenegger's character in "Total Recall", the movie with the three-tits chick.---Asteroid B612 (aka Rataube) - Ñ 10:22, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Ah yeah, I actually knew that already, but the content wasn't related to Total Recall or the Arnie character at all, which suggested to me that it was someone with the same name putting up a vanity page. Cheers for taking the time to leave a message, though.

Another deleted article...

hey, Codeine, I wrote an article last night titled "Urmomistan" after talking about it all day with a friend, I just wanted to know why you deleted it, rommel101abndiv@aim.com

In short, because it failed quailty control. It was too short, poorly formatted (no links or parsing), contained references to non-notable persons ("Adam Walker" and "Rayne Scott", whoever they are), and was suffering from a severe case of cliché (Chuck Norris references and irrelevance for its own sake). Please read through BGBU and HTBFANJS (our "user guides" as it were) to get an idea of the kind of content that we're looking for. Cheers. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 00:12, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Images

Is there some way to search through the images already available here? Because if I'm going to look like an idiot begging RadicalX to do some Photochopping (or whatever you people call it), I'd rather not look like an even bigger idiot when someone points out that a perfectly decent image already existed. Thanks, --Kwakerjak 01:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, the easiest way is to use the Special:Search page, where you can specify which namespace you want to search in; just only tick the box marked "Image". However, this will only bring up images which have appropriate or logical titles - i.e. conducting a search for, say "George Bush" will bring up all the images that have "George Bush" in the title, but won't display a picture called "Stupid Monkey President.jpg". So, in short, "not really" is the answer. I'd ask RadX anyway; being a man of great talent and wisdom he might well be aware if the image you're looking for already exists (chances are he made it already). Hope this helps. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 08:54, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I made the Dennis Lawson article you huffed, I'm not the person in question, rather, I'm his brother. If you could contact me somehow regarding the modification and/or restoration of the article, I'd appreciate it.

Cheers.

Well, you've kind of provided your own answer there. Uncyclopedia's goal is to be a satirical online encyclopedia; which means that whilst our content should be humourous in nature, our criteria for inclusion are roughly the same as those for a "normal" encyclopedia, such as Wikipedia or the Encyclopedia Britannica, insomuch as the subject of an article must have a degree of notability to it. Whilst I'm sure your brother is a source of much genuine amusement to you, most of the rest of the world have never heard of him, and thus he wouldn't qualify for his own entry in an encyclopedia. Please see UN:VAIN for our vanity policies. Sorry about this, but that's how it is, otherwise we could potentially have an entry for every one of the world's 6 billion inhabitants. Cheers. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 08:43, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification, as Dennis made a fake entry for my other brother, I was under the impression that it was acceptable. Sorry for any trouble.

Well, firstly you should sign your edits on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) so I can easily see who left me the message. Secondly, I presume the page you're referring to is Acorn computer. This appears to be a very poor synopsis of the Wikipedia article, with no comedic content. How this has escaped your attention I can't imagine, but Uncyclopedia is a satirical and humourous encyclopedia. Ergo, pages created here must have some form of comedy value. Inserting true facts is actually considered a form of vandalism here. So, "make it funny" is the answer to your question above. Read the links in the welcome message I posted on your talk page; these will tell you (almost) everything you need to know about this site, and our content and policies. Finally, please avoid putting broken templates on pages, especially user pages. If you are experimenting with formatting, use the Sandbox, or at the least, the "Show Preview" button. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 18:24, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

I need some Codeineg

Hey there Codeine. I just made an article (which you may feel free to edit, of course), but I would like to spoof the Category, much like sdrawkcab. As you can see at the bottom of the page, I have done everything like sdrawkcab, exept I need the css (or js I'm not sure which) "hack" to make the old Category box go away. On IRC just now the recommended I talk to you about it, and since you are in a diffrent time zone then me I figured on your talk page was the best place to pester you. Thanks in advance, --The Zombiebaron 01:49, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm really busy at work at the moment ZB, but for now I've encased the Category in <includeonly> tags to sneak it out of the way. I'll have a look a little later on when I get a bit of time. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 08:15, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Account

I created an account yesterday, did some surfing, fixed a typo, and submitted something to QVFD. this morning, my account no longer existed, and i had to recreate it. however, when i recreated it (it let me reuse my account name), my user talk and info pages were still there, as was the change i made, and the QVFD was on the list, and the page had been deleted... any idea what happened to my account? thanks, --HaeSuse 16:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Journey

Hey, thanks for offering your help. my friend and i created the journey page last night (the first time we made it we only had like 20 mins so all we could do was quotes) and we're trying to actually make a good first article. we know it is outlandish and such, but we've had it up for less than a day and now it's a candidate for deletion. do you have any ideas on how to avoid this, because we feel that jouney is ridiculous enough to deserve a page. we didn't have the time to come up with our best since we only worked on it for an hour, and we really want to keep this page. if you have any ideas or advice on how to avoid deletion, please let me know. thanks again. --User:Jaaaranegan 13:46, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, firstly you should leave messages at the top of my talk page, not half way down and appended to another comment; I nearly didn't spot it because of that. Anyway, never mind. By the look of it, the NRV was slapped on halfway through construction by a user I haven't heard of. The article itself doesn't look that bad, so I've removed the NRV (and the references to me; no need for that, really); although you might want ot think about making it a bit less random humour and maybe more of a satirical take on the band Journey. being "wacky" will only carry you so far, whereas there tends to be much more comedy mileage in subverting actual truths. Read through the links on your talk page, paying particular attention to HTBFANJS, and also have a look at Uncyclopedia:Best of to see our most popular articles and how they're put together.

Whoa, calm down, kid. One message will do. And I didn't reply instantly because I don't spend every minute of my life on here. I'll look the page over when I have five minutes. Which I don't right now. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 15:31, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

OK sorry. I just read the vanity rules after my first one, and then i felt apologetic, then found the Wikipedia article. I tend to get worked up about this kinda thing. And anyway, LRGS is huffed again. But it's on my user page. --T-Roooy 17:40, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

An article on Westside High School was recently huffed. As it is does have an article on Wikipedia, I do not feel it should be huffed due to vanity.

Talk:Jackie Chan

hello codeine. it's a wiki alright but what if i spend 3 days creating an article in my sandbox and return to find someone else has filled it (this is more likely for MWPs). It's not possible to "integrate" it even if it's a wiki. i used to use {{WIP}} until MoneySign apprised me that it's use was discouraged. can i start the article with one line, start it's talk, allow an admin to put the {{Construction}} template and finish it in seven days -- is that preferred; the right etiquette in such situations? -- mowgli 10:24, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure why MoneySign told you that {{WIP|~~~~~}} (note the timestamp is part of the template use) was discouraged... both that and {{Construction}} are still perfectly legitimate tags as far as I'm aware. Sure, I can understand that it's annoying to be working on an article only to find that someone else has come up with the idea in the meanwhile. Ideally, you should have at least the nucleus of a good idea which you can leave on the page with one of those templates if you're planning on expanding it, and that's the right way of going about things; but like I said, creating an orphaned talk page doesn't give a clear indication of your intentions towards the page. Hope this helps. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 11:37, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

cool. Mhaille also suggested (about) the same thing in my talk page in response. even i'm not sure why moneysign said WIP will at sometime be removed but i'll bet he had good reasons for believing so. regardless, i admit starting a talk of a non existent page is not the way to go about it ('cos one's intentions are unclear). -- mowgli 11:49, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

The Crime Gang

You were right to huff that one - I really should have gotten round to finishing it but I fell off the side of the Internet for a while. I'd not like to see the time I spent on those photos go wasted though - if I finish the article up properly on my userpage before adding it, is it okay to re-add it or is that Not Allowed? --Wyattj 18:00, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Both of those are good ideas; but generally, what most people do with their work in progress is create it as a subpage of their userspace (for example User:Newjunkcity/New Article), so they can work on it in peace and then move it to the mainspace when it's ready.

Totally Useless Newbie Questions

I've created my own piece of crap which I've created after I've seen a piece of crap even worse than the worst I can do. Now I have this useless article (called Old Firm) and I need to do the following :

• create a Celtic FC page that automatically redirects to Old Firm

• link the Rangers (Glasgow Rangers) page so that it redirects to Old Firm - there is a current piece of writing there that I believe did not originate from any one with an IQ higher than Forrest.

• Add the links to other SPL clubs as it exist on the current Rangers page

• create striketrough text (only in two spots)

• learn to change "Old firm" in the heading to "Old Firm.

Help and useful comments would be appreciated. Flames will be used to light crosses.

1. You can move the Old firm to Old Firm using the "Move" tab at the top of the screen.
2. I'd suggest not creating a redirect at Celtics FC or Rangers there is no reason why all three can't exist (look at the many GWB pages for instance) AND play in the SPL!.
3. Strikethrough is created by placing <s> and </s> round the required sections.
4. There is a ready an SPL page at Scottish Premier League, the table showing "Scottish Premier League, 2008-2009" is editable at template:SPL-08, you can include this table in other pages by adding {{SPL-08}} to them.
