Hey there Gumbal1, and welcome to Uncyclopedia! Thanks for your contributions. I hope you like it here. If not, I'm sure life will go on elsewhere. Anyway, here are a few good links for people like you:
- Uncyclopedia:Beginner's Guide to Being an Uncyclopedian
- Our Vanity Policies - why we don't care about your friends. We are not Myspace, or Facebook. Also, we don't care which of your friends is gay/a douche/an ass. That's called cyberbullying, and we don't like that here either.
- How to be funny and not just stupid. This is not an insult. Please read it. I personally read it twice before I edited anything.
If you read anything at all, make it the above three links. If you want to find out more about Uncyclopedia or need more help with something, try these:
- About Uncyclopedia and The five pliers of Uncyclopedia
- How to get started editing on uncyclopedia
- Help Pages - if you need help with a specific issue
I hope you enjoy editing here and being an Uncyclopedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or use the "sign" button (

At Uncyclopedia, writing articles is not a requirement, but it certainly is a fun and easy way to express your creativity. To write an article, it's recommended that you start it in your userspace (for example, I started my first article, Thou in my userspace (User:The Woodburninator/Thou) before moving it to main space. Lets say you wanted to do an article on Johnny Depp. You could create this in your userspace as User:Gumbal1/JohnnyDepp) so you can edit it at your leisure. If you decide to create it in the cold world of mainspace, make sure it is in accordance with the policies laid out above, and if you're not done put the "Work-In-Progress" template - {{construction}} - onto it as well.
If you need help, ask me on my talk page, ask at the Dump, or ask an administrator on their talk page. Additionally, the Uncyclopedian Adopt-a-Noob program is there to bring experienced editors straight to you. If you want or need some help, just browse our list of available mentors, and leave them a message on their talk page. In closing, enjoy your time here. Just wipe your feet on the rug before you leave. You don't want to get the outside world all muddy, now do you? The Woodburninator (woodtalk) (woodstalk) 21:13, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
