OMG HI[edit source]
You're back! This is truly the most wonderful thing of the very short space 2013 has currently occupied. Stayin' for a while or just passing by? ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 09:22, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hey Frosty. :) Actually I haven't been able to access the wikia site in the last few months. I'd be glad to stay and help out if I'm needed. Is the move from wikia pretty much over? MadMax (talk) 09:37, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
- The move from Wikia has been over for about the last week actually, of course their are still a few bumps in the road that need cleaning up so far as running the site goes (if you run into any problems use the forum link in the site notice to report them) but yes we are almost completely independent now. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 09:50, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
- Welcome back MadMax! -- The Zombiebaron 12:15, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
Thanks. Sorry I wasn't around to help out this week. MadMax (talk) 12:19, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for looking over some of my old stories! Leverage (talk) 13:09, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
When adding inessential spaces and line breaks to templates (as you might do when categorizing them, for instance)[edit source]
Please make sure they are inside the noinclude tags. If they're outside of the noinclude tags, they will be transcluded along with the rest of the template, which can minorly to majorly screw stuff up, depending on the template. Also, please try to limit the noinclude tags in a template to a single pair (<noinclude> and </noinclude>).
19:31, 15 January 2013Template categorisation[edit source]
Basically what socky just said; I'm just going to repeat it because he edit conflicted me right when I finished and now I'm going to have to murder him.
When categorising templates, could you please try to put the <noinclude> right up against the content without a linebreak, and have the linebreaks inside it? Otherwise the linebreaks wind up transcluded by the template and that tends to break things.
Basically do this:
{{Message_box|message=This is template content|image=Whatever.png}}<noinclude> [[Category:Advisory templates]] </noinclude>
Instead of this:
{{Message_box|message=This is template content|image=Whatever.png}} <noinclude> [[Category:Advisory templates]] </noinclude>
Thanks. -— Lyrithya ༆ 19:34, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

Spamming[edit source]
So you're editing so fast it's flooding up the recent changes feed, so I'm going to give you a userright that will hide you from the recentchanges feed. Just remove it once you're done. Thanks! Legoktm (talk) 08:45, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Friends with Benefits[edit source]
I just wrote an article that I think is extremely FA material and I wanted to know if you'd read it over and/or nominate it for me? :D It's called Friends with Benefits. -- 02:03, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- I can if you want, and I did enjoy the article, though you might be better off getting a Pee Review first. I'm not really the best person to ask for comedy advice. MadMax (talk) 02:25, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! Um, well. I guess Pee Review is dead. Maybe could you fail the noms for People's Republic of China and Pet rock? 02:41, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
could you feature something?[edit source]
We don't have any features set up for this week >.<
2:35 2.25.13- That's a wrap. Now it just needs to be protected. :D 3:07 2.25.13
Thanks for letting me know. MadMax (talk) 03:12, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, you're welcome. Um, but it's protected for autoconfirmed moving and editing, it shouldn't be sysop only. 3:13 2.25.13
Sorry force of habit. ;) MadMax (talk) 03:16, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- Lol, it's fine. 3:21 2.25.13
Thank you for doing the feature today! I've been super busy and I'm down to a netbook right now... I'm working through reading some to get a couple more pushed into the queue. 2013.02.25.04:36
- Not a problem. I've only done it one other time and a little afraid I'd mess things up. I suppose I can be more active if VFH needs extra admins. MadMax (talk) 08:21, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
- That'd be wonderful. At one point earlier we had a forum vote for new sysops (which failed) with the major reason being that we needed admins for this very cause.-- 00:42 3.01.13

00:40 3.01.13I need help[edit source]
Could you set up the feature queue to refeature Sex for the 4th's feature? It also tied for 5th in Top 10 of 2012. You could probably look here for help and then use Ljlego's edits in the history of the feature queue to see how to do it.
Secondly, I need the page Uncyclopedia:VFH/Top3 unprotected so I could update it. 16:01 3.03.13
- Okay, thanks! This can be protected again, now. 16:09 3.03.13

Aw thanks guys. That made my day. MadMax (talk) 16:43, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
- Not sure if you have seen my comments in the forum Max, but I think you should be a Bureaucrat on Uncyc. I think you would be perfect for the role. Forum:VFB. I'm hoping that one of the other bureaucrats agrees with me enough to actually make it happen... MrN 16:50. Mar 14. 2013
Oh really? I think I've been here so long I usually assume {{USERNAME}} whenever I see "MadMax" anywhere. Sure, I don't mind if everyone thinks I could be more helpful. I appreciate the nomination in any case. :) MadMax (talk) 17:15, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
- Ha. That honestly just made me laugh out loud. You thought it was a joke nomination? Hehe. Nope. Again you provide further proof that you would be perfect for the role of Bureaucrat. I can honestly say that from everyone I have ever known on Uncyclopedia, or anywhere on the internet for that matter you are the most suited for the position. Everyone else reading this knows I'm right... IMO you should have been a crat years ago, but unfortunately self promotion is not one of your strong points, and also unfortunately politics does tend to reward that. MrN 17:38. Mar 14. 2013
That means a lot. Thanks. MadMax (talk) 18:18, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Can you set up the features[edit source]
Can you set up the features for this week? A possibility could be:
Sunday - Nillion Tuesday - The Maori Show Thursday - I'd like to talk to you about Jesus
or something to that effect.
17:52 3.16.13
Another feature[edit source]
Could you set up the next feature? None of the admins will respond besides you.
22:54 3.19.13- SPW: I apologize for my lack of responsiveness. I'm in the middle of changing jobs and moving 1300 miles (mostly the packing part right now), so I probably won't be able to resume doing this (or be very active in general) until at least sometime around 4/6.
- MadMax: Thank you for handling this while I've been busy. 2013.03.20.16:25

Controversial thing[edit source]
Hea Max. I noticed that you just put semi-protection on a page. I was wondering if I could ask you to consider using semi-protection a bit less on pages. As I'm sure you know we have more admins than we know what to do with these days, and also patrolled edits means that vandalism is very hard to miss. Because of this, I think that we might get a few more IP edits and maybe even some more users if we allowed more pages to be edited by everyone. We can always semi them later if they do become a target of attack, but... For now, I think we can get away with a lot less semi-protection on non FA pages. What do you think? MrN 21:40. Apr 4. 2013
- Sure, that's fine. I've only semi-protected pages when there's been long term vandalism or when I've had to spend a long time going through the history to restore deleted text. Gerard Butler, for example, had remained vandalized since April 2012. MadMax (talk) 21:48, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
- Cool. Using patrolled edits we should be able to get all vandalism from now on considering the state of things... MrN 21:59. Apr 4. 2013
- Except for a few spambots I don't think I've seen any IP vandalism since the move. Maybe they're still editing over at the old site. ;) MadMax (talk) 22:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
Thankies[edit source]
Could you fill all this week with features? I won't be here to nag anyone, probably :D
01:39 4.10.13- And don't forget Reasonable doubt! That one is the cool stuff! lol 01:53 4.10.13
Could you feature something[edit source]
Please.
00:36 4.16.13Featuring articles[edit source]
- Hey MadMax. Thanks for featuring articles, it is very much appreciated. However, you're doing it wrong. Feature order is determined by the highest score, and if two articles are tied the older one gets featured first. So, for example, featuring an article with a score of +10 ahead of an article with +13 doesn't make sense. -- The Zombiebaron 01:08, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
- Oh, ok. I thought that people might still be voting since Change.org has only been on VFH for 4 days. Should I replace it and move the current one to the next slot? MadMax (talk) 01:24, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, if you want. I just wanted to mention it so that you didn't continue making the same mistake in the future. -- The Zombiebaron 01:37, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

New User trying to find a good comedy wiki[edit source]
Im trying to find one without as quoted in an actual topic (from myself) "revert maddness" that is. sensless reversions that effectively aim to make the wiki into a sensless ripoff of near pointless publication like the onion. which seems to rely on photoshoping buffont hairstyles on everyone. i mean, they just ofically ended world war two yeasterday (frrrllzzthuh). this censorship of happiness isnt working. im not even obliged to actually get an account on any one of these wikis if i cant be sure some tard isnt gonna revert cause it screws up his or his masterbation fantasy subtext syntax. or some other equaly brain dead excuse that wouldnt hold up outside of the feng shuei they got in that personal hell they seem to have going for themselves over there, wherever they are.
i dont know, im just tryiing to have fun withough a bully coming over an pushing me down on this playground we call: wait, this typeface isnt helvetica.

Another VFH idea[edit source]
So, we all know that VFH is not as great as it once was or could be. I'm not suggesting anything radical, but only a minor change which is we lower the goal on VFH from 15 to 10. I don't want to seem like I want to install every idea from the other site, but considering that on a good day we only get up to about halfway, it makes sense to lower the goal bar. Everytime I look at the red space I just feel depressed, and lowering the goal bar has worked for the other site, beacause they have theirs on 4 or 5, yet over here it would work even better beacause we rarely drop behind 6.

Where did yesterday's featured article go? And where is the title for today's featured article? IFYMB! Talk to me baby! 03:18 27 June 2013

VFD[edit source]
Since you've archived VFD entries (and deleted stuff) a lot more 'n' me, there's a forum you might be interested in, about using subpages on VFD (like VFH). Y'know, to make it easier to archive stuff? Anyway, how's the family, and the missus, and did little Meriwether Jr. get his back brace off this week like the doctor said would happen? I know he'll prolly still try to do fellatio on himself, but I'm sure you and the missus can always put one of those dog-cones around his neck. Speaking of the missus, is she still drinking the corn ethanol directly out of the tank? You should cure her of that--take a strap to her; only a dam fool lets his woman ruin the mash before it's strained. Anyhoo, it's always good having these talks with you.
