ICU and QVFD[edit source]
Hi Qzekrom. Just a quick word on the above pages. Thanks first of all for contributing and helping us out with these pages. Just make sure that when you tag a page with ICU that it is suitable for ICU. I realise that we all want to assist new writers and deleting their initial efforts doesn't seem particularly nice, it's the way we tend to deal with very short or blatantly crap articles. Rather than lecture you at length I'd encourage you to have a read of this, that and this. Make sure you're familiar with these and you won't have any issues. If you're not sure you are more than welcome to put it on QVFD and say so, an admin can then make the decision. Hope that helps. --ChiefjusticePS2 21:06, April 11, 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks. So QVFD if it's total bullshit, ICU if it's not total crap but still unsatisfactory and {{Expansion}} or {{Stub}} for everything else? -- This has been an automated message by Cute Zekrom (talk) 21:18, April 11, 2012 (UTC)
- Remember you've got VFD as an option too, but only if the page is too old for ICU or QVFD. --ChiefjusticePS2 21:47, April 11, 2012 (UTC)

UnSignpost article[edit source]
OK, may I introduce you to this article? And also, I want it recorded. 07:38, April 12, 2012 (UTC)
A Day in the Life of an Average Uncyclopedian
Co-written by Joe9320 and Qzekrom
As usual, I wake up in my bedroom. Yes, I do the usual: I ate my breakfast, which is Uncyclopedi-Os with toast, grape juice (I ran out of orange juice yesterday) and a nice cup of coffee. Then I showered and brushed my teeth, but not at the same time. Afterwards I put on my clothes, and headed straight to the Village Dump by the notoriously unreliable service that is the UTA Metro. At the Village Dump, I have a chat with the other fellow Uncyclopedians at a nice cafe called BHOP, where they sell cheerful pancakes with the words emblazoned, "Benson is better than you" on the plates. I saw a large counter in which the people count to a million, one by one. I thought to myself, by the time they reached a million, it would be 2020, or later. I contributed to the counter... whoa, they'd gotten ahead 2,000 numbers since I'd left!
(complete it, Qzekrom).
UnSignpost - Free Pixels Inside![edit source]
Because if the rumors don't spread at the salon, we must spread them in the news.
Apr 12th, 2012 • Issue 163ish • The newspaper used as insulation by discerning homeless
Nobody panic. Everything is fine. In a precedented move, USP has handed the reigns over to somebody new in order to ensure it's timely delivery. USP has had a fine tradition of coming out regularly on a weekly basis[citation needed] since it's creation, and the handing of the reigns to In the meantime, the news continues to happen. VFH is in the healthiest state that it has been over the past 7ish years,[citation needed] as we are constantly reminded by the site banner, which is updating as regular as clockwork.[citation needed] The top three features articles of March is proving to be a hotly contested title,[citation needed] and is shaping up to be the first month in history where every article is likely to be in the coveted top position. And we have a strong consensus that there is no need for new admins, however we have a record number of potential admins nominated.[citation needed] Everything is fine. More Stuff
Sadly, I will no longer use the UnSignpost to talk about how great I am. Instead, the UnSignpost will return to its original purpose: Telling you about what's happening on the wonderful website known as Uncyclopedia.[citation needed] As Puppy mentioned before, ChiefjusticeDS has left his position as head editor and In other news, the Great Republican Write-a-thon is coming to a close. If you haven't heard, a Canadian dude and some schmuck who knows nothing about American politics are co-hosting a writing competition that will assess which team of Uncyclopedians can write a better article about a selected 2012 Republican presidential candidate nominee. Strangely, these same two doofuses have also submitted an entry, something which most certainly should have been against the rules. Nevertheless, articles on all four candidates were put up on VFH (which is serving as a judge), though the Mitt Romney article immediately failed since no one bothered to rewrite it (which is mildly entertaining considering he's leading at the moment). And now, some cheese: No, that wasn't random... Everybody panic. Nothing is fine.
In an emergency spur-of-the-moment move, the USP has forced the burden of writing it each week onto another innocent soul in order to ruin their lives like so many others.[citation needed] USP has had a fine tradition of not coming out since 1974.[citation needed] USP has decided to hand the blood-stained reigns to In the meantime, the terrible news continues to depress us all. VFH is running as slowly as the plumbing in my house and actually has negative six entries.[citation needed] However, the site banner seems to want to shove lies down our thoats. This is probably on account of the fact that it is only editable by lying, cheating, inbred bastards that can't seem to update the fuckin' thing. The top three featured articles of March is proving to only be winnable if you suck the right person's dick,[citation needed] and is shaping up to be just like all the other months ever: uninteresting. And a record number of people were forced to vote that they want more narcissistic assholes, however not one single person has been nominated, as there are no users left.[citation needed] Nothing is fine. |

You are a Pee Buddy Judge[edit source]
I'm sure that's not news. But feel free to add {{User:PuppyOnTheRadio/PBJ}} to your user page to show everyone how clever you are.
As for the method of judging - I recorded this thingy earlier, but the long and the short of it - you will be judging every article in the category for which you chose to judge. I will create a judging page later on that allows you to add a comment/link to each article you judge, along with a score. The ideal is that you score one a scale of 0.0 - 10.0 in total, but if you want to score out of 100, or 50, or 8.9, you can do that as well, as long as you put in the max score in as well. (It will become apparent once I've actually created the judging page.) Judging will start on the 1st (sort of). I've actually allowed a days grace for people to complain about entries or submit a late entry with a good excuse (ie: I was dead for two weeks for tax purposes). I'll keep you posted.

The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
Apr 19th, 2012 • Issue 102 + 82 • Fuck Xamralco and his deadlines!
I am an extremely lazy person
Hello, everybody. It's that guy that you see around here sometimes. I just want to apologize in advance for my unscrupleties and making up of the word "unscrupleties". I should probably redeem myself by covering something important that's happening on the site, like any responsible journalist would, but I'm not responsible or a journalist, so I'll just use this medium to complain about my life instead. I can't believe that slut Barbara broke up with me! We had something great, and she threw it all away for someone that actually "treated her like a person". Pfft! Women and their expectations! I don't even need them! Mrs. Right is all the company I will ever need. Speaking of dumb whores, my English teacher is making us read a book for homework! A book! What the hell is this? The seventeenth century? Nobody reads books anymore, because it's a complete waste of energy. Reading in general is a complete waste of energy. That's why after I write these rants, I never even bother to look over them, becase wy wuld i revew thus stuf whrn i alredy do it prfict the frst tyme? That's all from me! Though you may be wondering how anything I said here was at all useful to the signpost, I hope you can appreciate the lack of blood, sweat, and tears I put into this piece and remember that it's all for the good of Wikipedia. Oh, this isn't Wikipedia? My fucking GPS gave me the wrong directions AGAIN! Goddamn it! Now I'm all pissed. Thanks for reading, whoever you people are. Vote for 2 new

Good old admins such as Lyrithya kinda left but she forgot her toothbrush behind so here's hoping we can convince her to come back when she claims it in our lost-and-found department.

As usual, I woke up in my bedroom. Yes, I did the usual: I ate my breakfast, which is Uncyclopedio's with toast, grape juice (I ran out of orange juice yesterday) and a nice cup of coffee. Then I showered and brushed my teeth, but not at the same time. Afterwards I put on my clothes, and headed straight to the Village Dump by the notoriously unreliable service that is the UTA Metro. At the Village Dump, I have a chat with the other fellow Uncyclopedians at a nice cafe called BHOP, where they sell cheerful pancakes with the words emblazoned, "Benson is better than you" on the plates. I saw a large counter in which the people count to a million, one by one. I thought to myself, by the time they reached a million, it would be 2020, or later. I contributed to the counter and... whoa, they'd gotten ahead 2,000 numbers since I'd left! Then I cleverly thought: maybe this forum is just a waste of time and I should try my newly acquired keyboard skills at writing something. After all, what good is it going to do to count to a million? So I decided to contribute to the Unsignpost. I left for work to write a new article for the Uncyclomedia Association (but the sign says "Cylon Ass" on its neon lights), which was a building made of leftover construction materials, concrete, tarpaulin and held with hope. And mostly hope, as about a year ago, the building crumbled killing over 300 people below it. The article was halfway complete from yesterday, so I manage to edit it. Unlike my boss, I can't destroy someone else's document, or put it in a file and call it "top secret". But I can make amends to documents, or even write a newer, better one. There was an IP by the name of 68.343.245.130. He seemed to be a nice guy at least, but his first work was rubbish, so I talked to him on how he can improve it. This had gone for hours, and by the time I had given feedback to at least five IPs, it was the end of my shift. I simply went back home by subway, had a hearty meal, and cried myself to sleep. This has been my routine everyday since. Pee Buddy Awards
We have so much news in this bumper edition of UnSignpost we may start having to look at extending it to take over UnNews. In a completely unplanned and natural segue, while we are on the topic of UnNews, we have a new competition. Did you know that Uncyclopedia not only writes the news, we read it as well? In fact, to celebrate both of these amazing achievements, we are holding our very first (and possibly last) Pee Buddy Awards. The activity around this is indescribable. This is possibly because this UnSignpost was written before the competition started officially. But get writing and recording today - let's put a voice to the names we know and love. |

QVFD[edit source]
Heya, if this has already come up somewhere and been sorted out, feel free to ignore the following. Otherwise, while your enthusiasm for the deletion process is appreciated, could I please ask you to leave this sort of thing to the admins, as they're the ones actually affected by it, and capable of speaking for themselves? Generally signing posts on qvfd isn't problematic, just pointless. In the case of 'user request' matters as that case was, however, it can also be helpful, and thus your intervention, well-meaning though it was, didn't really help matters. Thanks.

UnSignpost Apr 26th 2012[edit source]
You'd be crazy not to listen!
Apr 26th, 2012 • Issue 165 • In a state of total chaos since March 8th!
VFS Excitement!
Hah! You thought you were rid of me didn't you? Thought you'd be rid of old Chief like you were rid of Mordillo?? Well I have news for all of you, which is exactly why I'm writing this story, because I have news for you! Those of you who have spent the last month wearing buckets on your heads will undoubtedly be unaware that there is a VFS going on on the VFS page, where the VFS happens! It would seem Uncyclopedia's demand for administrators is only eclipsed by its demand for Frosty to stop going on about wanting more administrators. The VFS is now in its final stage and the admins are all voting on they would most like to not unsee as an administrator next month. Leading the pack at the moment, with a whopping four votes, is EMC, running on the ever popular "Oh go on, please, after all it is a lovely day" ticket. Hot on EMC's heels is PuppyOnTheRadio, whose voting section is filled with discourse about how unhelpful and blunt he is, mostly from Lyrithya the head of Uncyclopedia's "Never Forgetting, Never Forgiving department". With the qualities she describes the UnSignpost confidently forecasts that Puppy will claim adminship and bring his sunny disposition along with him. Dragging his heels in third position is Frosty, who has three for votes, one oppose vote, one haddock vote and a pencil drawing of a windmill. We are guessing that he is in third, since nobody really knows. Assuming that haddock votes are similar to oppose votes and assuming that oppose votes are like against votes one can deduce that he is on a score of one, however should the judges decide the windmill is worth ten Salmon votes, there could still be all to play for. Frosty is also an administrator at Encyclopedia Dramatica, the wiki which proves you don't need to be able to spell Encyclopaedia in order to start one. Perhaps they are mocking the correct spelling. But we digress, it is evident that Frosty's entire persona on this wiki s a mere front for a plot! We have clearly uncovered a dastardly scheme to destroy Uncyclopedia, especially with the damning evidence presented by MrN9000 "23,450 edits maintained over a period of longer than a year all just to stage 1 days fun". He's disgusted and you should be too. Frosty, if that is his real name, was clearly dead set on not having his true intentions revealed. People of Uncyclopedia, the UnSignpost urges you to seize your torches and pitchforks; we shall burn and stab the demons out of him! Bringing up the rear in this race are Oliphaunte and Xamralco with no votes each despite everyone agreeing that they are splendid fellows, everyone except Lyrithya that is. VFS concludes at midnight on the 30th when the successful candidates will be inducted into the order and the unsuccessful candidates go back to having real lives. How exciting. Happy Thursday! Even more VFS Excitement! (The VFS Derby)
The horses have been chosen and the judge shoots his big giant black gun. POW, they're off. The Aussies take the lead thanks to RAHB while EMC inches ahead with the support of the zombie faction. Its a three way lead until...look...EMC and Frosty are ahead due to...who is that guy? Tom Mayfair? Seriously, who is he? Suddenly, Xamralco is....he...he is still in the same place... due to "support" from Lyrithya. MrN throws in all his votes. WHAT A RACE! Puppy inches ahead and now...look...another impossible to interpret move. EMC will stay where he is with a "neutral" vote by Lyrithya. Could this be any more exciting? And the first casualty, Frosty breaks his leg and falls back due to a very long block of explanation but he keeps going. Gosh that trooper! And...whats that...Chief makes an actual decision sending Puppy ahead. What's next!?!? And now...a total of four horses are..."supported" by Lyrithya...keeping them in the exact same place they were before! Followed by a giant monumental block with links and references shatters Puppy's leg...and he lags behind, can he keep going? Hey...a score fix. Puppy is ahead after all...thanks TKF for the correction! Lyrithya withdraws her "support" for Oliphaunte...meaning he no longer stays where he is...but instead...stays where he is! Remarkable. What a frenzy. Now an exchange between TKF and Lyrithya...resulting in...no change at all...and the fans are waiting for anything...any result at all. The Australians in the lead while the others are content with "support", "neutural" votes or "neutural support"! BF takes a stand and EMC shoots ahead that strong buck he is! TKF calls fowl on Mr.N and the judges decide that "no one cares". Romartus injects EMC with steroids pushing him ahead while he breaks Frosty's other leg due to a shocking "conflict of interest" scandal. Who saw that coming? Anything goes in the VFS derby! Now its bedlam...some punch the wind out of horses by withdrawing their "for"s or break horses leg by changing to "against". What a 360º. Horses fall left, right, centre while everyone tries to figure out what everyone else is doing. How intense! Not since the VFS derby of 2011 have we seen this scale of flip flopping! And now Zombie decides to hold onto his crowbar so he can break a horses leg if he threatens his favourite candidate. Others give horses a push ahead while others throw grenades strategically at other horses. It seems everyone is playing a game of chicken...waiting to see what the other person does. We are heading towards the final run, a grand all out cage fight. The two horses with the least broken bones crawling towards the end. Tune in next week to see if any of these horses cross the line before dying of internal injuries. Will someone make an actual decision in the next day or two! Keep your eyes posted! |

- Okay... this will go on in secrecy then. I was actually going to request that the admins make a game out of banning and unbanning me during my absence. So one guy bans me and makes up some stupid reason and then some other guy comes along thirty minutes later and unbans me and then, say, Zombiebaron comes and bans me ("Vigilance" or something) and huffs my userpage and then, say, Xamralco comes and unbans me and hacks up my userpage and then it just goes on until Friday night when I come back (Saturday at midnight UTC).

Pokemon in Barack Obama?[edit source]
I have ripped off your Barack Obama Pokemon shoop for Barack Obama's birth, as it fits better there--It is the nearest thing to a credential we will see on him. I don't like the use of the illustration in Barack Obama; that article was prepared painstakingly by a committee on a plan of dark irony, and your addition is zaniness that doesn't fit well there (what next? grues?); also, exclamation points in captions break the "encyclopedia" cover story. If you think it is a better fit on Barack Obama's birth and if you buy the above reasoning, consider undoing your change to Barack Obama. Spıke ¬ 22:11 29-Apr-12
- Okay. Well, I changed the caption to make it fit better with the rest of the section, but I decided not to remove the image because.... I sort of disagree because graphics wise, Barack Obama's birth is sort of a clone of Barack Obama. So it should have pretty much all the same images. They even have the same WikipediaPar template substituted onto them! -- This has been an automated message by Cute Zekrom (talk) 23:08, April 29, 2012 (UTC)
- They are not clones. The reason for the separate article is that Imperial Colonization didn't like some of the stuff I added to the main article. The similarities--especially the exploding Wikipedia with custom text--is because I worked on both of them. But I don't recall putting the tin-roof-shack photo in Barack Obama, and two articles should not "have pretty much all the same images," nor pretty much all the same text, or you pretty much wouldn't need two articles. Look at the photos in Barack Obama, especially toward the end, and notice the growing Orwellian sinisterness. The Pokemon card doesn't fit. It is a completely different type of humor--zany--that in fact begs for a new, more light-hearted article on Barack Obama, the card game. Spıke ¬ 01:13 30-Apr-12

Pee Buddy[edit source]
Just a message to remind you committed yourself on the judging panel of the utmost journalistic competition of all-time: The Pee Buddy Awards! All the judging will be going on on THIS PAGE. All of the glorious articles are listed there! It would be cool if all the judging could be finished in a week or so. Also, Aleister's article is the only one in its category (rewritten UnNews), but it would be a great showing of appreciation for his efforts if you could judge it too! If for some reason you can't judge them, please tell me on my talk page in advance so I can book another judge. It'll take a doctor's note though. Thank you very much for taking the time to participate, making this site a joyful place and all! Mattsnow 00:13, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

The future is C₂H₆O[edit source]
I'm not very good with the mark-up here yet. So thank you for pointing that out to me. The way templates work is still a mystery to me. Is there a page that lists the most useful templates and how they are used at all? Even the help documentation on Template:Fix was half gobble-de-gook. And by that I mean confusing and not a reference to Asian women at all. --C₂H₆O (hic) 00:01, May 6, 2012 (UTC)
Well, you can use {{tl}} to link to a template page, with the double curly braces included. Ex: To link to Template:Stub, a template you put on a web page to indicate that it's a rather short or incomplete page, you type {{tl|stub}}. (To insert the template itself, type {{stub}}.) Anyway, the most commonly used templates here are:
- {{stub}}
- {{fix}}
- {{ICU}} - to tell a user that they need to finish an article or it'll be (sadly) huffed in about a week. This should generally be only used by autoconfirmed users such as you and me.
- {{title}} - to change the title as it is displayed on the page. (Does not affect the URL or the title in the web browser. Use the stricter keyword DISPLAYTITLE to change the title in the tab or window.
- {{!}} - inserts a | character into a parameter to a template.
You can also create a template in your userspace. For example, I created this template to tell other users how many Google+ users have +1'd a page. To insert it, just type {{User:Qzekrom/+1|number of +1s}} into the edit window. This produces the following:
+1
|
number of +1s people have +1'd this page.
Good for them, because Uncyclopedia likes when people help make their articles popular. Every +1 counts!

Adoption request for Quantumpedia[edit source]
Hi. As the founder you already have admin and bureaucrat rights and don't need to adopt the wiki. You can make it into whatever you want. We do have other math wikis that I know about and probably physics although I haven't checked. Whatever you decide, good luck with it! Merrystar (talk) 04:53, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, you see, it was a project that a friend and I started but discontinued because we didn't think Wikia offered enough aesthetic customization - but I think we can resume work on the project, now that I've learned a little more about how to use it. -- 00:55, May 14, 2012 (UTC)

Greetings![edit source]
Thought I'd let you know about a new feature we've got on recent changes, called "patrolled edits". If you do any cleanup on RC, patrolling can be a useful tool. Essentially, it "approves" edits by any users who are not in the auto-patrolled user group (IPs, newbies, etc). It makes it much easier for multiple people to sweep up, as they don't have to keep checking the same pages. You can read about it here. Also, if you'd like to patrol multiple edits at a time, or just patrol edits directly from RC, I've got a special javascript which I whipped up recently. You can use it by putting importScript( "User:Bizzeebeever/scripts/patrol.js" )
into either your uncyclopedia.js or monobook.js, depending on which theme you use.
If you already knew about it, then please disregard this message. Cheers. ~ Sun, May 13 '12 23:47 (UTC)

ICU tags[edit source]
Just a quick heads up mate, ICU tags should only be used for newer articles i.e. articles that are less than a week old, you should also try and offer your own suggestions for improvement if you're typing onto the template. Have a look at this, this and this. Those pages should help you out when you're doing maintenance or trying to decide how to tag an article. That said, you're doing good things, keep it up. --ChiefjusticePS2 07:18, May 20, 2012 (UTC)

QVFD[edit source]
it is not a discussion page, so please stop posting comments because you disagree with a listing. Listing them there does not guarantee their deletion, and arguing with it is not going to change the choice of the admin it's just gonna clog up the page with discussion. Instead try talking to the user that made the listing if you feel they made a mistake, it usually works and you might even learn something about the deletion policy. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 07:12, May 23, 2012 (UTC)

An Endzone Victory Dance From Your New Overlord
Hi, I'm EMC, your family-friendly fascist and tyrant. Having been at Uncyclopedia for almost six years, I have seen some shit. A lot of it I can't talk about because of some gag orders which are still in effect. Some of it I don't want to talk about because even thinking about it gives me sympathy pains in my groin. But one thing I had never seen before was me becoming an administrator. One month ago, this was something which only happened in my wettest of dreams. Thanks to my mother's influence, I was able to win the VFS. Once this happened, I felt obligated to write this UnSignpost piece about this extraordinary blessing known as me. I will start from the beginning and finish at the end. I was born just like everyone else. Sometime shortly after that, I discovered Uncyclopedia. Six years later, I became an administrator. As you can see, my life can be summed up as a series of successes followed by more success. I invite you all to follow the example I have set for you in my years of Success awaits you, especially if you are me. YOU MAKE 'EM, WE SCRAPE 'EM, NO FETUS CAN BEAT US! A New Beginning for the Beginner's Guide
If you take a whiff around, you can smell many parts of Uncyclopedia rotting away, such as neglected projects like UnPoetia or those meme-filled articles featured eons ago. And just look at all of that dust on the HTBFANJS! But of the many things which suck and need major fixing, the Beginner's Guide is no longer one of them. Thanks to the efforts of Shabidoo and this USP article's author, the Beginner's Guide is now navigable and comprehensible. Users are no longer overwhelmed by stubs stuffed between unnecessarily long calculus equations or whatever the hell was going on with that thing before. Readers do not have to flip through using the "Next page" button. Instead, the new guide can be navigated with its template or its overview page, which now only have six relevant links instead of thirty-thousand and five irrelevant links. What preceded this and highlighted the necessity for rewriting the guide was the simplification of our UnNews guide and welcome message. It's a well-established fact that reading bores people. Giving people less stuff to read when they first join Uncyclopedia, experts say, increases the likelihood that new users will not only be less bored, but that they might actually read the Beginner's Guide/welcome message/UnNews guide and become worthwhile contributors/get banned less often. And at the end of the day, that's what it's all about. |

Image nominations on VFD[edit source]
They're not really needed unless there is actually some contention. Plus it wastes everyones time and forces either me or Frosty to make VFD archives sooner than we really have to. Cheers:0)--Sycamore (Talk) 12:11, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- The pic is now used, and some of us like to keep as many images as possible. I thought QVFD was for things less than a week old, since when do images go into there? Yikes. Aleister 12:21 27-5-'12

- p.s. I don't know if he's right or not. My rule of no-thumbs is if a picture has some meaning somewhere, keep or use it. I like your attitude, that you want pics used. See what I did with that map of US counties which you nommed for VFD. Thanks, it's an interesting map.
- Let's close the nomination. It was in the public domain anyway. What I really care about is unused or shock images that are copyright violations. -- 12:49, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- It's been the credo to QVFD 'unusable' images for some time. Like the Chinese Communist Party, there's a hope that an unwritten rule will prevail that this won't really get out of hand and it'll just be duplicates/porn or just crap that ends up on QVFD. Some admins 'manage' images periodically and some pruning via QVFD should be sufficient. I agree with Aleister that image deletion is less desirable - people will continue to upload images quicker than they could ever be deleted.--Sycamore (Talk) 13:35, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

- Okay, I'll just create my gallery. That way, they'll be used someplace. -- 21:45, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- And as for copyright violations, please only use this as a reason if they're clear violations (and keep in mind that fair use may apply). Since we don't actively encourage people to provide an explanation of the copyright status for every file uploaded, "unknown copyright status" is hardly a reason to delete something. If something does turn out to be a copyright violation, our friends at Wikia will make sure to exterminate it on the spot. 14:05, 27 May 2012
- Unfortunately, they might be fed up with us enough by then that at best, they'll force us to conform to the rest of Wikia, and at worst, they'll shut us down. Forever. -- 21:45, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- I don't know if you totally understand the wonderland of satire. You can use any copyrighted image for satire unless they really complain, and that's only happened a few times since I've been here. Satire let's you satirize things, including using the pics. This is not wikiipedia in that regard, or one of those pirate sites. We do it totally legally. Which reminds me...next section.

Okay I know it's (my signature) but[edit source]
What do those tags do exactly?
Magnus: You're brilliant. Now get out-You can't catch me, because I'm TURBO PENGUIN! 02:53, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not a CSS expert, but this is what I think they do. our site's common.css style sheet has the following style rule:
.sighidden { display: none; }
.sigexpand:hover .sighidden { display: inline; }
.sigclick:active .sighidden { display: inline; }
.sighidden
tells your browser to apply the style rule, enclosed in curly braces, to apply that style rule to anything marked with classsighidden
. So when you addclass="sighidden"
to something, it applies the style rule for.sighidden
to that element of your signature. (Note that you can apply multiple classes to a single element, separated by spaces. That's how I did it, shown below.) The style rule tells the browser not to display anything markedsighidden
.- But then there's another style rule called
.sigexpand
that only activates when you either hover or click on the element. It tells the browser to display any nested elements markedsighidden
when you hover or click on whatever is markedsigexpand
. - I'm sorry if this explanation's too technical. You can ask any of the other users for help. I know that Xamralco and Socky are using the popup thing. Anyway, I've added this popup stuff to your signature, as shown below:
<span class="nounderlinelink plainlinks sigexpand" style="background-color:#B8860B;">[[User:DarkArcher25|<font color="white" face="Arial"><span class="sighidden">Magnus: You're </span>'''d'''<span class="sighidden">iscerning.

Blog post: May 28, 2012[edit | edit source]
Happy Memorial Day to all.
I've been browsing Uncyclopedia recently and I've noticed that the coverage of technology here is... unfortunately, mediocre. Just recently, Uncyclopedia's article on itself was nominated for deletion. Personally, I voted against huffing it.
But I digress. I'd like to highlight a few articles I stumbled upon that I'm not a big fan of.
- Nanotechnology - This reads a lot like a Wikipedia article, except that it's not all true. It just doesn't agree with me.
- Steve Jobs - The UnNews coverage of Jobs' life is a lot more comprehensive than this piece o' shit here, which feels to me like a mess of sex jokes and dishonor for the dead. (Once again, please salute this great man, who gave his life for a great cause.) It appears to be a content fork for Apple Inc. (below).
- Apple Inc. - Once again, iDon't like this article much because it's weird and could be a content fork for Steve Jobs (above).
Anyway, if you can read this, please help by improving these articles, and Heil Uncyclopedia! -- 03:10, May 29, 2012 (UTC)
