Super Chron-Chron[edit source]
Geez, this is the second image compliment I'm passing out today (what's wrong with me?)... Your ChronChron image is really great stuff -- lots of attention to detail and expertly crafted. I'm sure there must be too much going on in it to be featured, but I love it just the same. That needs to be displayed somewhere prominent, like a museum or Parliament. It definitely rewards repeated viewings; I'll go back and look at it again right... now. --Immy I will never wash my talk page again 22:48, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
- A very very late reply... Thanks! I really appreciate the compliment :) -- sannse (talk) 20:33, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

a different subject[edit source]
Should I take precaution? -- Swami A. Suresh 22:59, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
incidentally[edit source]
'cos you're active in wikipedia and 'cos wikipedia overwhelms me and 'cos their pump is apathetic and 'cos Nv8200p looks fearsome, i was wondering if you could tell me:
- if this image in this site is actually under copyright? the fine print in the site says, "Copyright © 1996-2003" - isn't that "past" plus would that automatically include imgs if the site is still under copyright?
- i've tried enquiring about its status from the site owners by email but all my mails have gone unanswered for frankly they couldn't care less.
- Nv8200p has deleted my uploading twice and he's pissed off - i can sense it.
- if i digitally alter it (say make it say "charcoal" in photoshop), will he still delete it?
- i want to (desperately) add the image to this page.
feel free to redirect me to someplace else if you don't have answers (except ask me to leave nv8200p a msg). tia. -- mowgli 15:17, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- Obviously, I am not a lawyer an all that, so this is just my understanding:
- Copyright does not depend on a copyright notice. So an image is copyright on the photographer (not the owner) or his employer (in some circumstances) whether or not it is marked as copyright. The exceptions are images that have been specifically released from copyright, or very old images that are no longer regarded as copyright. There's no reason to think that this one is either.
- "Fair use" may apply, but in this case I doubt it. The reason we can get away with that on Uncyclopedia (probably/maybe/we'll find out in court) is that the work is done for reasons of parody - something specifically protected in the fair use conditions.
- Changing the work does not change the copyright status. The images becomes a "derivative work" and is copyright of the original photographer and the new artist. However, unless the new artist has permission for the new work, it is a violation of the copyrights of the original photographer. So the fact that he holds, in part, copyright to the derivative actually means nothing - it's still illegal.
- So, the short answer is, it's a violation of copyright, and of Wikipedia's rules. Sorry! -- sannse (talk) 15:37, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- thought so. i thought digitally altering might circumvent the legal issue, oh well. i suppose i'll have to do with just providing a link. thanks. -- mowgli 16:00, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- so like you can merrily reproduce text (long passages - the crux of the book minus the chaff), with impunity, as long as you cite your source but you can't reproduce b&w photos today? everything regresses to a digital signature in today's age - then why this bias? reprints and imitations are made and distributed freely in the print world. obviously something jars when it's taken to mean for all media. i think "images" are caught in the in-between of this fight between print and other medias. i suppose one would have expected the leniency extended in times bygone to reproductions of portions of text and duplication of images for illustration -- provided the source was duly acknowledged, to have persisted in the laws of today? it's actually a subject for philosophers of law and we will have to wait for their verdict (the corporate-nation-states would love to sponsor the deliberations of these jobless philosophers, of course). just rambling (i do that often). -- mowgli 17:28, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- Text is subject to the same restrictions. You can paraphrase, and possibly quote a small section as "fair use", but a large reproduction is a copyright violation, as is a slightly altered derivative. Of course, what is a derivative and what isn't is a matter for the courts... it's a complex area with a lot of variation. You can't copyright facts, but you can copyright the format those facts are in. Fiction has it's own set of variations, and parody comes into it again. It's more of a subject than I care to go into... so I'm just say ALBATROSS! and leave it at that --- sannse (talk) 20:09, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I was looking at the user rights log, and although it is none of my business, why did you take sysop and staff right away from those users that you did? Again, I am sorry if I am butting in where I am not wanted, but I just want to learn more about the system. --Goshzilla 15:10, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- The staff was an addition now a removal, it had been missed when KJ joined Wikia. Most of the others were by community request because they had been inactive for a very long time (see some forum thread or other). The last two were removing joke admin-ings, one by me, and one by one of the bureaucrats - just and end-of-joke action. Hope that helps. -- sannse (talk) 16:15, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Changing usernames[edit source]
I was intrigued by Hinoa's username change. Would it be at all possible for me to have mine changed to one which is less...numerical, and what are the consequences? For example, could I keep my contribution list? -- Mitch 13:30, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, your contributions would be retained. All old sigs would still point to the old account though, although that would be caught with a redirect. But I don't want to over-use this, it's confusing to people looking for contributors, it's not good in terms of the attribution required by the license, and it's heavy on the servers (there are other down-sides, but I wasn't concentrating when the MediaWiki developers were complaining about it this morning). I'll change names if someone really feels they made a mistake, but it's strictly one change per customer, and only if you feel it's really needed -- sannse (talk) 16:31, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Watch lights fade from every room

a brief interlude.
To others,

Might I ask what was wrong with my revision of the Courtney Love page. I admit I did leave one broken link, however the other material was in my subjective opinion humorous.

Is there a particular reason you saw fit to revert my edits to that of the previous author? --Pixie 16:16, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

- We don't delete accounts. But you should be able to make another account by now... the prevention is timed. If not, ask an admin to make one for you and give you the password. Then you can change the password and it will be all yours. If there is some reason that won't work, I can rename one of your accounts... but I don't think that's needed here -- sannse (talk) 12:40, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Printing[edit source]
Just wondering if you could possibly fix the printable version feature so it actaully does something, á la WP. --The Rt. Hon. BarryC MUN (Symposium!) Sigh. Double Sigh. 09:31, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- It's not really needed, the page is automatically put into printable format when you print (on the default skin anyway). You can see that with print preview. But that said, it should either be removed or work the same way Wikipedia's does to give you a preview. I'll put that on the bug list.
Cyberbullying[edit source]
*Crosses fingers* I hope I'm typing in the right place to talk to you. Anyway you categorized one (actually my only) contribution as cyberbullying, when it was in fact not. It's the Velociraptor article, I'm sure you remember it. Anyway it had to do with the Ancestory of Velociraptors.
Basically my friend and I just joke around and I call him a Velociraptor, and we were like "OH! we should make an Uncyclopedia article and it can be about the Ancestry of Velociraptors!!" and he liked the idea especially so we perused with it, again, it's not cyberbullying. In fact I'm going through the extra effort to get a video for you to view for further proof, it'll be him saying he allows the article/contribution to be online, and that it in fact is not cyberbullying. Since you may remember the photo of him on the article, which he gets a kick out of, you'll be able to confirm it's the same person. Please contact me as soon as possible regarding this matter. Thanks!
- I'm afraid that if it's not cyberbullying (which I accept) then it's vanity. Why would I, or any other reader of this article, find it funny that you call your friend a valociraptor? I don't know him, I don't know you, so this means nothing to me. To be an uncyclopedia article it should be funny to everyone (or to a good number of people at least). It's the same with photos. I'm constantly taking personal photos out of articles, because them being there is funny to a handful of friends, not to the general Uncyclopedia reader. But if you want to put this in your user space, that's fine. I can help with that if you can't work out how. Thanks for coming here to talk about this though, that's always helpful -- sannse (talk) 12:40, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your responce! The thing is I still think it's funny, and a student body of over 2250+ students think its funny, which I would say is a good number of people, esspecially for just one article, and one photo. Perhaps you could reconsider? Of course I shall respect your word as an Administrator, but I still believe that it should be allowed. Also, if you'd like I do have the video proving it is not cyberbullying if you would like to see it. Thank you very much for your time Sannse, you were far more nice about this than I expected, I was expecting a repermand for questioning your authority and everything! Thanks so much!

- I won't copy to your talk page this time, hopefully you've found the watch settings now. 2250 is a small number, relatively speaking, and it will be even smaller when you consider that most will not visit Uncyclopedia (and I have to doubt that the whole of your college find a personal joke between you and your friend funny). The vast majority of those visiting Uncyclopedia will have no idea who your friend is, or why reference to him is funny - and it's that vast majority that's important here, not you and your mates. I'm happy that this is an in-joke, and not cyberbullying - no proof required. But this sort of private joke is not suitable for a project aimed at everyone you don't know. Sorry, but that's the way it is. -- sannse (talk) 22:21, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Username change[edit source]
Hi, Sannse. I asked Sikkon about username changes for I want to ungoofy my own name - you know, it was a great name for a Soulseek user, but here it's a little too much silly, now I'm realizing. He told me to talk to you. How do we do that? -- herr doktor needsAsample [scream!] 20:59, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
- I would actually suggest that you just make a new account, and redirect your old pages to the new one. Simpler, easier, and better for the servers. But I will change the name if you really feel you need to. This will be a one off, you will not be able to change it again. Generally, I don't want to over-use this: it's confusing to people looking for contributors, it's not good in terms of the attribution required by the license, and it's heavy on the servers. So please think about it, and let me know if you have decided to go ahead. -- sannse (talk) 21:35, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Sannse, could you tell me if it's possible to purchase the Wiki platform by a corporation for internal use (i.e. - company's intranet)? If so, who should I contact? Someone at Wikia?
Thanks! ~ 12:00, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Mordillo. We use MediaWiki, which is totally free and available for anyone to use. You can get more information from mediawiki.org. You will also need PHP 5.1 or later, and MySQL 4.0 or later. See php.net and mysql.com. Hope that helps, and good luck :) -- sannse (talk) 12:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Request for Checkuser[edit source]
Hi. Could you please run a checkuser on SlyFox? Someone claims he is a sockpuppet of Azazer, and we want evidence. --AAA! (AAAA) 08:28, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- I second this request. However, it appears that Sannse is away for the week, so we need to ask another admin to perform a checkuser. --General Insineratehymn 08:33, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- She'll be back tomorrow. --AAA! (AAAA) 04:46, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry, nothing comes up on Checkuser. Azazer's activity was to long ago for me to get any results. So it's totally inconclusive on this one -- sannse (talk) 12:41, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- What about any of his sockpuppets (maybe his latest), or any of the IP adresses he used were open backslash proxies? That could work... --AAA! (AAAA) 05:34, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- If they were proxies, that tells us nothing (unless the edits were pretty much at the same time). If you can tell me the names of any socks, or the IPs in question I can look... but as I don't have an IP for Azazer, there isn't anything for me to compare it to. -- sannse (talk) 09:47, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- Try User:King and User:BlackMachine. They were banned on 15th and 17th of January 2007. As for IPs, try 64.62.191.236. He is the most recent backslash proxy used for Powershot's deeds. Also, can you give me a screenshot of the checkuser screen? --AAA! (AAAA) 11:19, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- There are no results for User:King. User:BlackMachine appears to be the same person as User:Slyfox, although I can't say that with total certainty, as it's a general looking ISP... However, there are no other users on that IP and no other IP shows for those users. There are no logged in edits from 64.62.191.236. And for the screenshot: no. I'm afraid you will have to take my word for this. -- sannse (talk) 12:10, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- That's good enough. BlackMachine was a confirmed sock of Azazer, and it says SlyFox is a sock of BlackMachine (I think).

- I vote that you don't change Squggle's name, and instead change Rcmurphys name to User:Zombiebaron, and Zombiebaron's name to User:Mhaille, and Mhaille's name to User:Bradaphraser, and Bradaphraser's name to Famine, and Famine's name to User:Tompkins, and Tompkins's name to User:Rcmurphy, because that's the way I always imagined things. --The Zombiebaron 03:04, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Sig Pic[edit source]
Actually, I could use a little help if you don't mind. I've tried shrinking the pic in my photoshop, but apparently, my photoshop sucks. I can't get the image to look right as opposed to the current version. And I don't understand the thumbnail thing. Doesn't that put the little thumb box in my signature then? Sorry, about this, I didn't even think about it. I'm really not too knowledgeable when it comes to wiki formatting. User:Mrthejazz/sig 23:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
- I've uploaded a small version and added it to your sig. I hope it looks OK to you. The thumb trick means you link to the small version on the server, so you don't see the thumb box - but no matter, this way works too. Let me know if you want any changes, I adjusted the contrast a little, but maybe you don't think that's an improvement -- sannse (talk) 08:35, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Speaking out at an average volume at Sansse[edit source]
The maths on the Special:Editcount are virtually Uncyclopedic in their unaccuracy; it forgets to carry a pi, or something. For instance, mine shows 3,420 out of 10,405 as 0.03%, which is obviously the fault of a decimal point who thinks he runs the place. No biggie; I just like give people problems to solve. It's a small but integral part of my plan to take over the world. (And yes, there's something deeply wrong with 10,405 total edits. But that one's not Uncyc's fault. It's merely the enabler of this comedic relationship) --Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 14:38, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Sir Cs1987 UOTM. t. c 03:51, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
AyumiKitada, you don't need a checkuser for a list of IPs. All checkuser does is show the IPs of people who have chosen to register (and what other users are on the same IPs). Anons show their IP addresses openly. Yes, it's likely that they are all the same person, but that does not mean they are sockpuppets. Most IP addresses change naturally, that's part of the technology not an attempt to deceive (you and I edit from more than one IP address too by the way).
Three edits to your user page are not a reason to panic. Just revert and ignore. And as you insulted him first ("Fuck Off You Nameless IP Ass hat Jerk"), you aren't exactly on the moral high ground here. -- sannse (talk) 11:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Santa baby, I saw you had a Tinder and I swiped right—found your Bumble account. Santa baby, Match with me so we can Meetup. |

Oh come on...[edit source]
You could have at least heard me out... There was one guy on there, and he opped us and told us to post the title "something goatse". We didn't link to anything bad, infact we didn't link to anything whatsoever, except for someone did link here. Two other people came in and asked to be opped, and we didn't op them... Which in retrospect, yeah we should have given the conservatives their power back, but they just came in guns blazing calling us "fucktards" and "12 year old wikipedians" Anyway, then we gotted de-opped and they got Opped. and so it remains... I didn't mean any harm by it I was just goofing around, obviously in an irresponsible manner. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to "troll" we were just being silly. --Stevegasm 06:33, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Might as well ask[edit source]
Hi sannse! Sorry. I could have been more courteous. I was told by Braydie that this would annoy you. I hope not. You see, I don't like my user name, but I don't know how to change it. He said that you could do it, but that it would be annoying. I don't want to be annoying, but would it be difficult for you? I chose my original username rather rashly. If it's a matter of creating a new username, how do I get me old stuff connected to the new username? I thought I'd come to you directly and see what you thought. I'm sorry if this is a pain. and let me know if you can't help. I'd like the new username to be Math Poet. If you could just tell me what to do, I wouldn't have to bother Braydie anymore. I'll check back soon.Schizo Master 18:48, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- Meh, was nothing wrong with the first version :)
- OK... Standard Name Change Lecture follows: This will be a one off, you will not be able to change it again. So please be very sure you want this change and have the name exactly as you want it (including the case of all letters other than the first). Generally, I don't want to over-use this: it's confusing to people looking for contributors, it's not good in terms of the attribution required by the license, and it's heavy on the servers. It's easier to just make a new account and redirect your old page to your new one. So please think about it, and let me know if you are certain you want to go ahead.
- You have 2 minutes to make your choice (or a few days, whatever, let me know) -- sannse (talk) 19:08, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- two things. one: thank you so much for all your help with my account! two: I left a message for Braydie but it said there are now "errors on page" with it that I don't understand. Math Poet 11:09, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
there are "errors on page" all the time now. I thought it might have to do with my new username. Sorry for the trouble. Math Poet 11:11, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- Can you give me some more information on these errors? What messages do you get (in full) and where do you see them? What browser do you use? Thanks -- sannse (talk) 17:49, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
confirmation[edit source]
hi sannse! I got a message that "strange but untrue" editted my user page and my usertalk page. but the only person who did anything to my pages was you. are you "strange but untrue" or did someone discreetly edit my user page and my usertalk page? thanks. and also, thanks for all the help you gave me in the change over. i'm much happier now. Math Poet 23:32, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Math Poet. If you want to see who has edited the page, then click on the "history" tab at the top. In this case, it will take you to this page and this page. And there you can see that User:Strange but untrue make some adjustments to links on the pages. If you click the "last" link just in front of where his edit is listed, you can see exactly what he changed. Hope that helps! -- sannse (talk) 07:02, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
thanks sannse. I don't know why Strange but Untrue had to get involved but everything looks okay. I really appreciate your help.--Math Poet 12:38, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
new question[edit source]
i thought i'd take my article: I Think I'll Call It "Peach" to whatever the next level is. to make it a permanent article. it might get deleted for being too silly, but your UnBook inspired me to try. so. what is the next step? presently, the article is on my user page, as User:Math Poet/I Think I'll Call It "Peach". i'll check. is there a next step? i'm not sure what a "featured" article is and i was too embarrassed to ask on the chatroom. thanks for all the help. you've been great! --Math Poet 14:36, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hi there. You can just move it into the main area the same way you moved pages when you changed name. Just move it from User:Math Poet/I Think I'll Call It "Peach" to I Think I'll Call It "Peach".
- A featured article is one that's been chosen as the best of Uncyclopedia. They go through a vote, and then the best articles are shown on the front page for two days. Most articles don't get put on the voting page, let alone get enough votes to be featured. If you want a good read, try any article in the featured list. Hope that's helped -- sannse (talk) 23:00, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

can you tell me about becoming an IRC client? could it possibly hurt my computer? are there hidden costs? how, exactly, do you do it?--Math Poet 13:25, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

skin[edit source]
“There will be a new skin for newbies. This won't be added to Uncyclopedia on the basis that it wouldn't work to have a parody of Wikipedia looking so different from Wikipedia. But, of course, if you think differently and want this then let us know. There is a page about it at wikia:Newskin.”
~ sannse on Forum:Sannse's Area of Astonishing Announcements
Um... one question. What happens to the Uncyclopédias in other languages, such as Inciclopedia? They're already full of ads for other wikia that are off-topic and not even in the same language; will they look even less Wikipedia-like now? --66.102.80.239 11:12, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- The technical team already has a list of those... they won't have the new skin as default, same as here. Although I hope it will be an individual option for all wikia. -- sannse (talk) 14:54, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

- If you do that, then I can't assign old edits to that name. It needs to be an unused name for me to rename your current account.

- Whoa, that's a lot of... stuff. I'm currently working alphabetically through the file list (slowly recently as I've been away/disconnected) but might have a diversion into there.

That Wikia Spotlight Thing[edit source]
Don't worry, dukes down. I'm on your side. I would just like to know, am I defending the wrong side? Don't talk to me as a Wikian, talk to me as an Uncyclopedian with inside knowledge. Is this part of a massive plan to overhaul Uncyclopedia into Geocities? I don't personally think that it's a problem in any way shape or form. Sure, it's a little bit ugly, but I think that Rangeley is overreacting immensely. But I could be wrong.-Sir Ljlego, GUN VFH FIYC WotM SG WHotM PWotM AotM EGAEDM ANotM + (Talk) 23:42, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think it's possible not to talk as both, that's who I am :) Although I try hard to keep the two roles as separate as possible.
- No. Uncyclopedia will never be Geocities. That's not to say there will never be more ads, or different ads, but I have faith that we will never turn into About.com (a site I left because of their increase in ads). And it's not just Wikia's taste and conscience that ensures this... Wikia owns the domain name, and the equipment the site is maintained on. They don't, can't, and never will own the content. That is owned by us, the authors. Wikia provides the space to write, and the facilities to maintain that space, and in return for that service they show ads. But the community is always within its rights to fork, copy the content and set up a self-hosted wiki. The Grand Evil Plan is to develop Wikia and the wikis hosted by Wikia into massive successes - while trying hard not to do something stupid enough to make the communities leave.

Don't worry, I've already marked the images you can delete with one of these: "*". Just please don't delete any of the pics on the "Original Images" or "Wallpapers" pages as I DO plan on using those for certain articles. Also, I plan on using the unmarked pics on my "Other Images" page on certain articles. (Some are already in use). Sorry if I did a little to much uploading. Don't worry, from now on, I'll ONLY upload an image if I plan on using it in an article. Otherwise, I'l refrain from uploading. 04:32, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
- I'm afraid they are going. This is not the place to store wallpapers. There is usually leaway for original funny images, or images intended for articles, but you have way overdone it.

I'll indicate which images are in use. 00:14, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

At the moment they are not actually doing anything. They are claiming copyright on that page (not much to copyright there) and have a link to us.

deleted images[edit source]
- I assume the great image purge of 2007 on my images is complete. very well then, I had not gottoen around to making the articles that would require those pics anyway. But say I made an article that needed a pic that you deleted, I could just re-upload the image if it was to be used in an article right?
19:51, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Nope. There are still a lot of unused images in your namespace. Expect more deletions. But yes, if you are using the image in an article now then you are welcome to upload it. If it's for a future article then please don't. Although I have to say, I am rather confused at some of your articles... is The Michael Jackson Show a factual article?

Sannse, this image was made for DiZ for his graphical article Demetri Martin. I don't think he plans on using it...you might ask him, though. It seems to me that he added more frames to the article that I did not get around to including in the animation. ----OEJ 15:00, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Page source comment fetchy things[edit source]
Some pages are showing as fetching some comments, like <!-- attempt to fetch shared message Linkprefix-->
several hundred times on a page. Just do "view source" on a page and scroll down to about line 70. It differs from each page, for example, Main Page only has about 50 of these, while my user page gets over 1000, accounting for over half of the downloaded page size.
Also, while I'm here, perhaps related to the uncyc skin thing (but still slightly different). Choosing any skin other than "uncyclopedia" will stop the whole site loading, leaving just a blank page. Also making it impossible to get back to the preferences to change it back, unless you know how to use useskin=uncyclopedia
and go the that url directly. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 10:42, 08 Jul 2007

Embarrassed adoptee in distress[edit source]
Hya Sannse, how are you doing these days? If you could take a look here, you can see that ForestAngel feels pretty bad about the Goatse incident, and did it out of pure noobness, not malice. Could you reconsider the IRC ban? I'll have a word with her regarding acceptable IRC behavior :). Thanks! ~ 12:36, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- Hi, she's unblocked. Just so you don't think I'm toooo harsh... there was an explanation, a warning, and a kick on various days before this ban. Glad you reminded me though, I meant to remove it before logging off and forgot. ForrestAngel, if you are reading dear... it's simple: 1. NO shock links. 2. Any links that may offend little old ladies MUST be labelled with "NSFW" or equivalent. This applies even when you are cute. -- sannse (talk) 15:10, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Is this the right place?[edit source]
After some discussion on IRC about it, I've come to realize that my first name is a lot cooler than my current name(Which is the first letter of my first name and part of my last). As such, I have decided that I would like to change. I know this is difficult, and a pain in the ass, and that you are on a paid vacation to Taiwan(or something). However, I also know that you are the expert on the subject, and I feel that I ought to grovel and beg and pray for some help in this ordeal. Sincerely, EugeneKay.

Help![edit source]
Hey Sannse - Famine here. I was playing around with the new skin, and noticed that it didn't go fullscreen for me. To see if this was the same on other skins, I tried a bunch of them, for the first time, ever. On Slate, I think, I ended up with some major corruption which makes it impossible for me to render pages. The error is:
[code removed]
This is obviously a huge problem if other people are doing this too. I was wondering if you could do one or both of the following:
- Fix whatever the problem is.
- Reset my skin so I can actually view/edit pages instsead of seeing the above on every page.
Thanks! Sir Famine, Gun ♣ Petition » 20:00, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- After complaining in other places too, Spang directed me to Step 1: Log in. Step 2: go here. and all was well. Still, the fact that I can choose a skin and be locked out of my acct is a bad thing, methinks. So, here's my plan: If wikia can't get it fixed, I'll direct users who I don't like to it instead of banning them. I'm devilishly evil like that.
Sir Famine, Gun ♣ Petition » 08/5 01:13

PLS Prize[edit source]
Hey, I just wanted to say my prize for the PLS arrived in the mail today, and it gave me a good laugh. It really made my day. I was also surprised that not only did you send the money in Canadian bills rather than by cheque, but you also sent out an amount worth slightly more than US$20 with the current exchange rate. (No complaints here.) I just wanted to thank you again for sending out the prize in the first place -- it still blows me away that I actually received actual physical items to recognize my win. Thanks again, and, as I've said before, be sure to contact me when the next PLS rolls around, because I'd definitely like to help out with it in whatever way I can. All the best. -- CUN PLS VFH (Miniluv•Minitrue•Unsoc) 17:03, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

So there is no way for me to check your password, and without an email address, no way for the system to send you a new one. I would suggest making a new account, and linking the user pages of both accounts to show it's you. Sorry I can't help -- sannse (talk) 11:01, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Jingle Bell Rock[edit source]
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock!

Rough Pubs[edit source]
Been curious lately as to how one of mine would do on pee review. If you have a spare five minutes, any chance you could take a look? Cheers. RabbiTechno 12:43, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
- OK, I'm guessing you want the honest review, and not the "OMG that was soooo cooool!!" review?
- This article scored three chuckles and a guffaw. That's generally not enough for me to vote for featured (that usually requires at least one outright laugh) but is a respectable total. There was also definite smileyness throughout and, big plus, I actually read the whole thing. In particular, the "Pub games" and "Clientele" sections were good, but although that ended the article on a high note, it also ended... sorta...
- What else... the paragraph about Peggy didn't really fit, or give me any tickles to the funny bone... and I might tighten up and simplify some of the language to make it more readable... and that's all I can think of to improve it. All in all: OMG that was soooo cooool!!
- sannse (talk) 22:27, 12 December 2007 (UTC) who hasn't written a thing for uncyc in god knows how long. So take this for what it's worth. And on the bottom silly!
- That's good enough for me. Not bothered about getting featured anyway, I try to keep out of the competitiveness that leads to. Thanks! RabbiTechno 20:21, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Banning Question[edit source]
Hellair, I was wondering how do you translate a username into an IP address to execute a range ban when needed? Thanks. ~ 09:52, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
- This is where you need your local friendly staffer (that's me. OK... semi-friendly...). You need to ask for a Checkuser, either on IRC, via email, or here. I tend to grumble a lot if you don't give me the contributions links of those accounts you want me to check, this is because it means I have to make ONE EXTRA CLICK! In general, we don't give out IPs of users for privacy reasons, which is why staff only have this function. But if someone is vandalising or otherwise causing trouble then we can give out info as needed. -- sannse (talk) 20:07, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
- It scares the shit out of me when you use your wikia signature, I become all nervous and answering with a "yes ma`am" "no ma`am" :). I was asking since this morning I had a vandal coming back three times under different user names, and obviously I couldn't initiate a range ban on that. Thanks! I'll call you up next time. Ma`am. ~

Geoffrey Boycott move[edit source]
Hi Sannse, I've improved User:Knucmo2/Geoffrey Boycott to the point where I think it deserves its own page again; so do I take the source text from the Geoffrey Boycott article on my userpage, go to Geoffrey Boycott and create the new article there? Or is there some special way of doing it?--Knucmo2 17:44, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- Best to move, then the history will stay intact. You should see a move tab at the top of the page... just click that, put in the new title, and click move. If you want the redirect that will be left behind deleted, just let me know. Or you can just leave it, it's no harm. -- sannse (talk) 19:23, 5 February 2008 (UTC) (p.s. are you my uncle?)

- On the skin - go to your preferences on community test. Check your language is set as Hebrew. In the skins tab, select one of the new skins (Monaco) as your default. Make sure that "see custom skins" is off. Go to a RTL wiki like http://eincyclopedia.wikia.com/ - and the skin should still be there. Complain about how crap it looks. And that's it!

Are they're staff? Is this some mysterious wikimedia attempt to take over the world? ~ 15:21, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Hays. I think it's actually a Kaltura attempt to take over the world. There was a forum post about it here, and now they are trying it out. Not necessarily in the best way, that I agree. Unblocking is up to you. Personally - I say: why not? if they are more careful about when, where, and how they add them to articles. I don't see any point in a blank box... start it off with something worth adding to an article first, or experiment in your namespace.
Oops, at least half of that was with my Uncyc admin hat on... Sticking my Wikia staff hat back on - yes, we are working with them to provide this feature as an option. But also, it is an option... so it's up to the community to decide on unbanning and whether the feature should be used here. And yes, being British makes you sit on the fence a lot -- sannse (talk) 17:48, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

- Hi, at the moment, this isn't a feature we have released for use outside Wikia. But we do release our features - when we have time - a lot of our social features were released last week for example. So hopefully this will be out there at some point... I just don't know when! The more we hear of people wanting it, the quicker it will get out there (which is why the social tools got released so fast).
- of course, you would be welcome to move to Wikia, and then you would have all our features... (hi Carl ;) -- sannse (talk) 19:24, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Um, me again[edit source]
Sorry to be spamming your page of late, and I promise not to mention the broken redirects again... Woops. Grr. Um, SORRY! :-)... Na, seriously, there is a point to me being here (honest)...
I was thinking about making a bot for Uncyc, and wondered if you were aware of any policies about this here? Is it allowed? I have been doing some reading around over at that "Wikipedia" place (whatever that is) and think it's something which could be done here at Uncyc. I would probably use the C# api, and would run it on my own machine using a different user account to my own. I saw the "bot policies" stuff over at wiki, and guess that they would be a good guide to follow. In particular the bit about it running slowly (one edit every 60 seconds or so) to begin with... Anyway, I'm rambling now and I really just wanted to bounce the idea off you before I put too much effort into it. Any comments obviously gratefully appreciated. MrN 15:11, Mar 9
- Hey, from the Wikia side, the policy is: get community agreement, and make sure it's a 'friendly' bot... which includes running at a sensible rate (although one every 60 seconds?

- Cool. Thank you for your reply. I was thinking of creating a new account for my 'potential' bot and putting some information on its user page about what it could do, and how it might operate. I guess a post in the village dump would be the thing to do afterwards. Obviously I would need to actually be operating two accounts, which I know is not really considered a good thing to do. I guess if I make it very obvious on the user page of the bot what is going on, that would be OK? MrN

Um, me again (again)[edit source]
Sorry to interrupt again, but this time you can blame Codeine who thinks that you are the person for me to talk to... I have been working on my bot for a while now, and it's actually starting to work (a little bit), but unfortunately I have a problem. I have been initially testing it at Wikipedia, where I have been able to get it to read, edit and successful save some pages using my Wikipedia account [3]. However, when I try to run it here (using MrN9001) I get an error saying that "Error occurred when saving page "User:MrN9001/Sandbox": Bot operation is not allowed for this account at "http://Uncyclopedia.org" site."... I think this is related to the expression if (respStr.Contains("input name=\"wpCaptchaWord\" id=\"wpCaptchaWord\""))
I'm guessing there is something different in the set-up between Wikipedia and Uncyc regarding bots. I don't have +bot at Wikipedia and it works fine there.
Actually, I'm not sure I want +bot here, as my bot will be doing things which people probably need to see. I asked Codeine about +bot and he said that there was only one setting which he could adjust, so I'm guessing there is something else which needs to be turned on?
I'm using the guide at Wikipedia:Creating_a_bot and have chosen to use this [4] API to help me do it. I could modify the code in the DotNetWikiBot Framework (to make my bot look like a normal user, so it worked) but would rather not as I guess you guys have good reasons for having things as they are here at Uncyc.
Sorry to trouble you with all this, but thought you would be the person to ask, as my code works fine over at Wikipedia, so it appeared not to be worth asking there. It might be that I'm just missing something or doing something stupid with my code, in which case I obviously apologise. If you could help with this I would be really grateful... Thanks. MrN 22:26, Mar 14
- I'm sorry, I have no knowledge of the technical side of setting up bots. If you use IRC, you could try asking in #wikia on freenode, see if there are any bot gurus around. A few people use them on Wikia, but it's not an official thing, so not something I've learnt about. If you decide you do need a bot flag, I can give you that (wtih community agreement) but that's the most I can help with. Sorry -- sannse (talk) 17:18, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Wikia Search Headaches[edit source]
Hello Sannse!
When I first started out on Uncyclopedia, I tweaked around with different optinal layouts to see which one I liked the best. I picked the "WikiaSearch" layout. Ever since then, I haven't been able to see/use the Uncyclopedia search toolbar, change my time preferences, and my signature preferences. I can't even change my layout, haha. I sent an email to tech help over at WikiaSearch. They essentially said that I should be having no problems with using Uncyclopedia. But apparently I am.
Please forgive me for any inconvenience,
Mightydandylion (talk) Fk 15:22, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, what do you see when you try to change preferences? Can you get to the page at Special:Preferences? If so, you should be able to change the skin there. You want it to be on "Uncyclopedia (default)". Looks like we need to sort out that list, I don't think Wikiasearch should be on there! :-/ -- sannse (talk) 22:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- !...It worked! Thank you so much! When I try to change my preferences, it asks me to log in twice consecutively. When I do get the the preferences page, it asks me to save but it doesn't do anything. When I press shift+ctrl+r like it said to do, it still didn't do anything. Regardless, I'm really glad to be back on the uncyc layout. Once again, thank you! Mightydandylion

UnSignpost: May 15th, 2008[edit source]
Sucking Journalism's Fat Wang. Badly.
May 15st, 2008 • Issue 2 3
The Bible Finally Catches a Break For years... or whatever... Conservapedia has attacked Uncyc for being too liberal. Today, Uncyc publicly derobes itself, and reveals its patriotic side. From now on, "Uncyclopedia" will be renamed "Falwellapedia" in honor of the late pastor, Jerry Falwell who died May 15th, 2007. Unsignpost spoke with the founder, Modusoperandi, in his isolated forest bunker. "I hate how the liberals treat us!" Modus shouted, along with his two followers. "Don't they see that when they make fun of us, the lord rolls over in his soon-to-be-resurrected grave?" The conservative propagandabot Fbooble is scheduled to "purge the site of any left-wing statements" by the end of the week, soon after it gains self-awareness and joins the Republican party. "HUMANS, CLOSE YOUR NOISE HOLES AND PAY ATTENTION!" Fbooble proclaimed at a recent press conference. "THE DEMOCRATS AND ALL THOSE OTHER LIBERALS ARE NEARING THE END." Fbooble, whose titanium wristwatch glistened in the afternoon sun, held up a copy of the Falwell Children's Bible near the conclusion of the conference and said "ALL PRAISE JEBUS, AND HIS INVINCIBLE ARMY OF DISCIPLES!" Although Fbooble is unclear on the details of religion right now, it promises to become ultraconservative when it does. Not all Uncyc users are happy with the transition. Although we could not find anyone who actually called themselves a liberal, we did manage to vandalize a hybrid just to equal the score. Unsignpost promises a lucrative year via advertising revenue for the Republican National Committee and a weekly "Republican of the Week" section. Changes by Fbooble will include replacing all swear words, such as ****** and ***********, with the word "daffodil," and deleting all articles. Shockporn deemed unworthy will be replaced with this image, and quotes not from the bible will be deleted with extreme prejudice. All non-American users, such as that one guy are to be called "fags", also with extreme prejudice. How To Be Funny And Not Just Stupid, one of the hallmarks of Uncyclopedia, has reached the top of the heap. Mordillo, an administrator who will be the least offended when we attribute absolutely false quotes to him, recently said of the page "Finally! Although I've never read it, I hear it's full of fatherly, patronizing advice for those newbs that write those articles I'm constantly huffing!" Mhaille, who has the most linked-to userpage on Uncyc, was slightly more angry at the recent news. "I'm only in 10th place? What the f**k?" While spying on Mhaille from under his bed, the news staff heard language that no human being was ever supposed to hear. Thankfully, the staff was smashed on Listerine, and may have just made up the entire event. Mhaille commented that "No, they didn't make it up, and if they do it again they had better bring enough Listerine for everyone." The user responsible for the 36,000+ links to How To Be Funny And Not Just Stupid wishes to remain anonymous, but said to our reporters through a wiretap "I just got too carried away. I wish I could take it back, but I can't, and that's no reason for threatening my family in this way! Oh jeez, I hope you get this message, Uncyclopedia. All right, I'm hanging up now, and I hope you're not angry. *BEEP*" UnSignpost Releases Second Issue May 15th, 2008: Uncyclopedia has developed an open wound... a newspaperish one. Riding high on their success, Dr. Skullthumper and Cajek have "deployed their golden parachutes" and are "planning to pack up our shit" and "get the hell out of here." Wearing his trademark solid gold sweatpants, bought with the advertising from the first and second issues of Unsignpost, Dr. Skullthumper said "It was fun, I guess, but now it's time to move on. Like a wild hyena, Unsignpost has left its mark. There are no more stories to cover: no more people to attribute fake quotes to." Cajek, munching on a shish kabob of bald eagle babies, had nothing to add except maniacal laughter as he threw thousands of dollars into the air. Unsignpost, bankrupted by the two owner's antics, is planning to make the paper a paid subscription, unless something kooky happens, in which case it won't. In addition to subscriptions, Unsignpost is having a luau at Mike's house to raise money. "Oh, it'll be soooooo exciting!" Mike said. ...You know Mike. Anyway, Mike continued, "There'll be a silent auction, and a limbo contest, and a pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey! Oh! So exciting!" With the proceeds, Unsignpost hopes to add a "Week Box of the Week of the Week" section and a mascot. Maybe a shark. Protein folding: The latest in computer entertainment "Well that's great," you say. "So I'm helping compute protein folding, a never-before-possible situation to model on computers, and thus helping cure some of the most misunderstood diseases to strike humankind as well as advancing the knowledge of the human race into parts of science that were up until recently perceived as impossible. So what's in it for ME?!" You, yes you, will get the excitement of watching proteins fold in your very own home! "Wow!" exclaims part-time F@H user Dr. Skullthumper, "did you just see that? Did you just SEE the way that blue thing collided into that gray thing? Oh man, it was amazing! And in super-slow motion, too!" Other users have given the program similar reviews, describing it as "utterly transfixing" and "better quality entertainment than mitosis!" You, too, can join in the fun and the frenzy of the world of those wacky proteins - while saving the world! |

I see it all now: Uncyclopedia, Wikipedia, Uncyclopedia... the construction and future of these wikis have been laid out before me." When asked what he meant, Spang said that, upon reading the first version of the article Pie, the future of Uncyclopedia was revealed to him. The version presently up is "but a pale shadow of what it once was." The fabled first version of the article is, according to Spang and fellow UnArcheologist TheLedBalloon, "The DaVinci Code of Uncyclopedia." One of the oldest contributors, 68.237.62.152, is said to be the creator of the fabled text, but could not be reached for comment... maybe 'cuz he was gettin' laid or somethin' cool like that. "If only the original version had survived!" Said Spang's lead balloon, who gained sentience upon glimpsing the article. "I want to know the significance of the Norris! The secret meaning behind the Wilde! The hidden power of the grue! I want to know the secret of the memes!" "First of all, how did a balloon become an administrator? Oh, right, this is Uncyclopedia." Said long-missing founder Chronarion. "Second of all, the current article you have up there is, although not as mystical, still sorta mystical... For example, look at that quote at the top! CLASSIC Oscar Wilde!" Questions arose as to why the original version was deleted in the first place, but Chronarion, who only made an appearance in one of our writer's drug trips, merely cackled, turned into a tomato, and vanished in a cloud of LULZ!!1. The mystery surrounding Pie continues, and Uncyclopedian historians are still seeking the truth. ...BUY A SUBSCRIPTION TO UNSIGNPOST to see further developments! Following Third Issue, UnSignpost Wins All Sortsa Awards n' Shit At the annual Uncyclopedia Signpost awards banquet, held every year in Dr. Skullthumper's backyard, the Signpost was the clear winner of the night, garnishing all 149 awards in all 144 categories. The press was not invited to the gala, but the Unsignpost has heard that several Uncyclopedia celebrities were at the event. Mike - you know Mike - said, "Oh yeah, we got Chronarion and Save the... whatever it was... We got 'em all! We even had Famine! Even though he still hates us, he still bothered to show up and drunkenly berate the guests! In fact, I think he's still in there, berating the furniture!" Unsignpost writers all agree that it's not pathetic to give yourself an award once in a while. We do our chores! We've been kicked around! Why don't we, the writers, get any recognition? The special boobie-prize, The Feel Okay About Ourselves Award for 2008, was accepted by Cajek on behalf of the writers instead of a paycheck. "Finally I get a god damned award." One of the writers dramatically grabbed the award away onstage and, crying, started screaming at the award itself. "WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I NEEDED YOU?!? YOU BASTARD!!" Unsignpost is planning to make the awards banquet biweekly, in honor of the fact that the writers are extremely lonely, and just want a way to talk to loads of people without having to listen to "feedback". Newest Uncyclopedia Article Discovered Yes, the newest article, Jacob Zuma, created just at the time of this writing, is the newest article to date. No! Wait! It's RETARDIS. Wait, no, it's Broomstick. Oh whatever, the point is that we found it, and when it's deleted in three seconds, Unsignpost gets first gloating rights.

UnSignpost: May 29nd, 2008[edit source]
The Newspaper Whose Mom Said It Was Cool!
May 29th, 2008 • Issue 5
Uncyclopedia Second Most Active Wikia Site According to local Wikia staffmember Sannse, Uncyclopedia is the second most active site, next to Halopedia. "Yep. People are more interested in Halos than Uncys. I've never really bothered to look at either site, so I'm not sure why one is more active than another, but I'm sure it's because Halopedia is superior." Reporters on-site have looked into the rumors. Apparently, Halopedia is in fact not about halos, but instead is an entire wiki... devoted to a video game. "Oh lord, this is embarrassing," said Master Chief, the main character of said video games. "I thought I could keep this under wraps for a while longer, but you people in the press are like fucking vultures. WHY DON'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE?!" Apparently Halopedia's nearest competitor, Uncyclopedia, is some kind of "humor wiki" meant to induce laughter. "Uncyclopedia's laughter is nothing compared with ours," said Evilpedia's founder, User:Dr. Doom, "Our laughter will ring all throughout Wikia, and then: THE WORLD!". Other statistics include the nerdiest wiki and Furwiki, the most disturbing wiki. Uncyclopedia is neither the largest wiki (Wookiepedia), nor the most active (Halopedia), but it does come very close to first in both categories. Who wants to be first place anyway? Nobody wants to win all the time! Like Unsignpost's father used to say: "You learn more from losing than winning!" and really, that's all that matters! ...AAAAHHHHHH!!!!! BASTAAAARRRDDSSS!!! Following Fourth Issue, UnSignpost Does Lame Clip Show After having not seen his boss for a few days, Cajek, or as his friends call him, "Cuntjek", and his team of writers have been forced to rely on past issues and a clip show in article form. "Don't look at us that way!" said that one guy we were talking about. "A few days ago, when Skull was around, I was only editor of the fetish section, now I'm in charge of the whole thing. Jeez, I hope Skull is okay..." The lame clip show was said to be almost entirely from the first issue, when the Unsignpost was "cool", and before the fetish section took over the whole paper. According to reports to this newsroom, the clip show article included the "weekbox of the week" from issue 1 that instructed Cajek and Skull to slather humor juice on an anonymous reader, and the "Goatse Challenging Gap" from issue 2. "Oh shit, what else we got?" Carjack screamed across the newsroom. As of this issue, the huge portrait of Dr. Skullthumper has been prayed to for nigh two weeks since his mysterious disappearance. Fnoodle, who usually serves coffee to the writers (albeit very angrily), has gone on a quest to find his former master. So far, no word of Skullthumper's whereabouts have reached the press.
Letters to the Editor I am a female student from University of Nigeria, Lagos. I am suitable yrs old. I'd like any person who can be caring, loving and home oriented. I will love to have a long-term relationship with you and to know more about you. I would like to build up a solid foundation with you in time coming if you can be able to help me in this transaction. Well, my father died earlier two months ago and left my mother I and my junior brother behind. He was a king, which our town citizens titled him before his death. I was a Princess to him and I and my brother are the only people who can take Care of his wealth now because my mother is not literate enough to know all my father's wealth behind. He left up to USD $27,350,000.00 dollars (TWENTY SEVEN MILLION, THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND US DOLLAR) with a security company, and I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in abroad, so that my father's kindred will not take over what belongs to my father and our family, which they were planning to do without my present because I am a female as stated by our culture in the town. That is why I felt happy when I saw your contact which I strongly believe that by the grace of God, you will help me secure and invest this money. I thereby need your help in bringing the box contaning the money out from the security company, based on your reply I will furnish you with more details on how we can proceed. I am ready to pay 10% of the total amount to you if you help us in securing this money and another 10% interest of Annual Income to you, for handling this business for us, which you will strongly have absolute control over. If you can handle this project sincerely and also willing to assist me in lifting this fund, kindly reach me and I will let you know the next step to take towards actualizing this transaction as quickly as possible. Please, note that this transaction is 110% risk free. I look forward hearing from you soonest. Yours sincerest, Miss Lady Princess Irreverent

UnSignpost: June 5th, 2008[edit source]
Woop Woop! it's the sound of the Police UnSignpost!
June 5th, 2008 • Issue 6
Sixth Issue Relies on Guest Writers For the sixth issue of Unsignpost, guest writers from outside the fold have been chosen to write a bunch of stupid crap. Among them are the illiterate administrator Zombiebaron and reformed drug mule ThePaleOne. The community's outcries were heard soon afterwards, probably. Jack Phoenix, a respected Wikia staff member, said of one of the articles "Nobody cares about Cajek trolling Wookiepedia anymore. In fact, I'm kind of ashamed of Uncyclopedia for doing something like this. It's like I'm at a well-written version of ED." The Unsignpost staff, full of miscreants and malcontents, hung its collective head in shame and went to the corner for a sit down. Qua, who wanted to be in this issue of Unsignpost to whore his userpage, issued a statement at the press conference located at his Mayan temple: "Why didn't they do an injoke article on the fifth issue? Am I the only one who cares? Where have the lols gone, my friends? Where have the lols gone?" In response, the Unsignpost sent a secret "Fifth Issue Of Unsignpost" article directly to Qua, where it will be housed until his death. The Unsignpost writers, who have had a cut in pay since the leaving of Dr. Skullthumper, are now relying on the work of random people found on IRC for their inspiration. We now present to you an article in the Unsignpost by somebody else about a guy who works at the Unsignpost... /me headdesk [note: "me" refers to the entire Unsignpost staff]
It has been reported on #uncyclopedia that Cajek, our resident editor, has been banned from the "Star Wars Wiki", Wookieepedia. There has been an outrage in the star wars community, as they find Cajek to be a charming and respectable fellow [ed note: Cajek did NOT write this!]. Even us here at the the UnSignPost believe so, ( but don't tell Cajek that! ) [ed note: I SAW THAT! YOU'RE OFF THE CASE!] I spoke to one Cajek fan, Darth Vader, to see what kind of impact this has had on the community. "It really is tragic to see him get banned," said a distraught Vader, with tears dripping from his helmet, "I just don't understand it! How can there be no Cajek?! We've seen his greatest and sometimes his somewhat lameness. But we will be EPIC FAIL without him" Vader's emotionally wrecked state shows the devastation caused by the Wookieepedia senate's unruly vote. I just hope Palpatine wasn't behind this, I voted for him too! I sat down with another fan, Jar Jar Binks, to discuss this radical move. "Mesa think its outrageous! Mesa no like Wookieepedia afta this! This beein worse than <insert name here>'s bombad faggotry!" And indeed it is. Personally, I denounce the Leftist Bias of Wookieepedia and their slander against Cajek. What did he ever do to them right? Personally, I hope Something really bad happens to those immature, pubescent, oxycotin sniffing children. In other news, 52% of Uncyclopedia agrees that Cajek should be set on fire on Sunday's Luau against 45% for drowned in his own discharge. 3% were undecided.
Alright. So. This is going to be cool. Because. You see. Therefore. Once upon a time. There was this really big house. Inside the house was a monster. Oh. This is a newspaper. Well, in that case, the monster was operating a grow op. Right. And the monster was named Skullthumper (because this is his fault, really, when you deconstruct it down to the last proton). Yeah!!!! But. Going onwards and upwards. The cops busted the grow op. It was fucking huge, man. THIS IS NEWS. IN THE UNSIGNPOST.

New wikia style[edit source]
Ahoy Sannse,
we at German Uncyclopedia are somewhat alarmed about the new style announced by Wikia. From your forum entry Forum:Message from Wikia I conclude that Uncyclopedia (including the other language versions?) will not in any way be affected by those changes. Did I get that right? Or is it just what we all hope?
Thanks, NaturalBornKieler 12:12, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Addendum: Our admin has confirmed that the changes will not affect us right now. Therefore, feel free to ignore my question. Cheers. NaturalBornKieler 16:25, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

UnSignpost: June 12th, 2008[edit source]
Your #1 source for Cajek ban jokes!
June 12th, 2008 • Issue 7
Cajek banned - New, shittier writer assigned to this stupid job
Recently Cajek, an Uncyclopedia user who has been labelled as a mystical creature, was been given a one month ban by the council of Wikia. Users who feared that UnSignpost would not be written or delivered. But Qua, who is currently in a state of shock, said that "Cajek was a good guy, I didn't expect him to get banned for a month. He was about to help me, I don't know what he was going to help me with but he was going to help me with something.". Many Uncyclopedians that are known have a hold a grudge against Cajek celebrated his recent ban saying "While he might be back in only a month, we should take the time to celebrate and rejoice a Cajek-free environment."
It has been reported that Flumpa, Uncyclopedia's very own pimply faced ginger-nut has left Uncyclopedia forever, due to irreconcilable differences. He cites the banning of users, fights between the two, the treatment of IP's as "real people" and the lack of cookies in mommas cookie jar. One of our reporters spoke to Flumpa as he was packing his wagon to leave Uncyclopedia "I like the holding hands and the fairy floss but Sophia has icky wiki germs and I just couldn't get past that. However I hear this new EDwina down the street is available, she may play in mud but I hear she has yummy yummy cookies." 127.0.0.1, leader of the "IPs are Real People, Too" Foundation had said that "Flumpa makes some great points on IP treatment, such as telling them that behind that string of random numbers lies an actual person; A person with heart. A person with brain. A person with spleen." When asked whether he would share his hard earned money on a badge from the Keep-the-IP's-out-of-Bannation-Foundation, this reporter simply told them to bugger off and get their own alcohol addiction gawdammit! We do, however, wish Flumpa the best of luck as he travels across the wiki-street with his trademarked brand of Off-topic forums to meet this EDwina fellow.
We at the UnSignpost would like to remind all Uncyclopedian editors that June is Internet safety month. Through the efforts of Uncyclopedia and other sites across the Internet, we can help protect innocent children and frail grandmothers from seeing offensive content DOG SHIT Uhm, we're sorry about that. The editor that wrote that previous sentence has been fired, in accordance with the rules of Internet safety month. UnSignpost would like to remind all editors to use extra padding in tables, because we don't want the little kiddies touching the sharp edges and getting hurt. As per Internet safety month, all uploaded porn will be closely monitored to see if the models are engaging in safe fucking. I mean sex. SEX! I meant SEX! We apologize for the previous two editors. They have been shot, out in the hallway, in the most safe method possible, we assure you. We even laid out cushions for them to fall on. Anyway, Websense and other Internet blocking sites will up its sensors to block over 99.99% of the Internet. What will remain is available is the Wikipedia article "Frog", weather.com, and anything unblocked in China. We at UnSignpost wish you a happy Internet safety month, and hope that you stay safe. Remember to always use a firewall. Websense has blocked this column for the following reason: This column contains "humor".
Difficult times lie ahead for schoolbound Uncyclopedians. A series of semi-challenging tests lie in the near future for many, and everyone's workload seems to be growing. Unfortunately for Uncyclopedians, finals are nearly here. However, luckily for Uncyclopedia, finals are almost here! This means that, as procrastination rates skyrocket, Uncyclopedia activity grows proportionally. Haven't been studying for your math final? Those fancy words mean that Uncyclopedia usage is going up, just as teachers pull out their hair worrying about keeping their kids' averages above the department bottom line so they can keep their jobs. However, here at UnSignpost and Uncyclopedia, we pride ourselves on allowing for multi-tasking. So, here is a series of brief study guides that are pretty much all you need: Science: For this final, you will be asked questions about science. However, simply remember a few facts, and your science final will be a breeze. These include remembering that ontogeny does not recapitulate phylogeny, pyruvate and phosphofruktokinase function as glycolytic enzymes, and the kidneys are located three ribs up from the malnuric sphincter. Math: Just prove to your teacher that 1=2, and any answer you give is automatically right. English: ENGLISH, MOFO, DO YOU SPEAK IT? History: To pass this, just try to remember a few important dates: 622BC, 394BC, 211BC, 5BC, 11AD, 24AD, 300AD, 906AD, 1102AD, 1619AD, 1791AD, 1963AD, and 2012AD. Tech. Ed.: Basically, you take a saw and cut shit up. Fucking A. Music class: Try not to fail and blow any notes. You'd sure look like a real tool, then, huh. Art: Just explain to your teacher how deep and misunderstood you are, and paint your feelings. Take a few pictures with a black and white camera setting and write a few "dark" poems, and if your teacher knows how often you cry then you'll have an easy A. Foreign language: THIS IS AMERICA, SPEAK AMERICAN! Gym: If you're really planning on studying for this final, then only God can help you now.
An article by Zombiebaron has caused a huge feud between the all-powerful admins that could ban me again. Thekillerfroggy has charged that the "Nonsense Watermelon Catastrophe" was not newsworthy enough, while Zombiebaron charges that the article is newsworthy, and therefore should not be deleted. In the fight, many people have cried "drama" and run for their lives. "Oh, this is deliiiicious!" said resident fucktard Drama. We spoke to Drama in his white linoleum mansion. He stopped seductively petting his gay snow leopard long enough to talk to us. "I loooove drama. I want their drama dripping all over my linoleum castle. I want their orgasmic screams of anger to rattle the walls! What do you think, Puffles?" "Oohh, puurrrrr" said Puffles. Some of the more regular users have claimed that the drama will bring unwanted side effects. RAHB has recently said to one of our reporters: "Remember, when there's drama, Ljlego touches himself." [Ed note: he said that on IRC, I swear. to. god. ban: banbanban.] Zombiebaron, an administrator who just happens to be a spectre of the unwept dead, spoke at his crypt this Tuesday dressed in his ceremonial black and red robes: "Hhhgggrrrr, I do not like speaking to the public: They give me a rash. As far as how random uncyclopedia is, we have two admins who are a balloon and a frog, so my article is perfect. The drama will not be settled until I taste the frog's flesh. Suffffeeeerrrrrr..." The Killer Froggy issued a statement soon after, with his frog army in the background: "ribbit? RIBBIT! ribbit. ribbit ribbit ribbit!" Both administrators have promised to ban the poor, misunderstood writer of this article if their statements were printed, but that's the risk we take to bring you the news. That's just how cool we are. Drama is the real winner here. As of this printing, he is planning to buy his gay snow leopard a fluffy red cape with the profits. And remember: every time there's drama, Ljlego touches himself. I'm not fucking kidding. He's all like, "oh yeah, oh, oh yeah I love you drama" and they're both in the love coven, snugglin' n' shit. I have pictures, guys! I swear it's totally ins AS OF THIS PARAGRAPH, CAJEK HAS BEEN BANNED INDEFINITELY. |

It would be awesome[edit source]
If we could get the Gadgets extension. It would be totally useful to make it easier to get the useful JS and CSS stuff available to people. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 02:22, 20 Jun 2008
- I've gotta say it... do you really think it's reasonable to be constantly sniping at Wikia, and then asking us for shiny new toys? -- sannse (talk) 21:03, 20 June 2008 (UTC) (oops, sorry for that missed sig)
- Absolutely. I can give suggestions on how to not make uncyclopedia worse (through the use of extreme sarcasm), and also give suggestions on how to make it better. I'm sure both wikia and I would love it if I didn't have to ask it to install extensions, but it is the way it is. Perhaps the key is to love wikia first, and then it'll think about doing what you want? Who knows. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 00:04, 21 Jun 2008
- I don't ask that you love Wikia, I don't even ask that you like Wikia. But it would be nice if you occasionally acknowledged that the relationship between Uncyc and Wikia requires some give and take. -- sannse (talk) 07:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- (staff hat on). I've asked the tech guys to look at the extension -- sannse (talk) 07:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- Hea Sannse. For what it's worth, I personally do acknowledge the give and take issue, and I think that most of the Uncyc users who were not born yesterday do also. Spang very much included. For the most part, I think that Wika do a great job, and I know that we are all very fortunate to have someone like Sannse as our contact into Wikia.
- You talked about "sniping at Wikia" above when you were also talking about "give and take"... Perhaps some of the frustration which Wikia witnesses from Uncyc users comes from the fact that we do not appear to know just how much give and take is actually currently involved. We know that Wikia needs to make money to pay the bills associated with hosting Uncyc. Perhaps if we knew how much those bills were were, compared to how much money Wika makes from us we would understand better. Currently, we are left in the dark with Wika controlling all the information. I wonder if it might be possible for Wika to (somehow) provide this information allowing Uncyc users to better understand the financial issues involved. I'm sure that if we knew just how much money Wika makes from us, and what we cost to them we would all feel a lot more happy. :-) Can this be done? MrN
11:40, Jun 21
- For the record, I think that'd be nice too, but I don't think it's that simple. Keep in mind that I know nothing about business(and I do mean nothing), but I get the feeling that it's way more complicated than a simple 'cost vs. earnings' thing, what with taxes and ads and who-clicks-what and users coming and going and all. Besides, neither cost nor earnings is important as SAVINGS! - Don Leddy the Crunch
(Nyah, see, nyah!) 17:09, Jun 21
- Generally, TLB is right. But in Uncyclopedia's case, part of it is easy. Wikia currently has no income from Uncyc. I mean, have you actually counted the ads? ;) There is currently only one internal ad per page. So we should get a few clicks to visit other wikis (which have ads) but nothing that actually gives an income. I can't give figures for costs, but I think it's fair to say that keeping a wiki of this size going is not cheap. After all, running costs were part of the reason for the original move to Wikia. So at the moment, it's pretty much all take on Uncyc's side - Wikia gets those clicks, and the prestige of hosting Uncyc. As I've said elsewhere, I don't believe this can continue forever, and I think change will be necessary. But there have been no decisions on that so far, right now we are way too busy with the other 5999 wikis (or however many it is right now) -- sannse (talk) 09:14, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
- If it turns out that "change" is in fact necessary, I hope Wikia would try a non-ad route first. I know fundraisers suck, but I don't doubt that some Uncyclopedians would be willing to pony up a little cash to keep the wiki alive rather than have ads plastered over it. And no matter how low Wikia may fall in some Uncyclopedians' eyes, we will always love our own little Sannse. —rc (t) 18:50, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
- Generally, TLB is right. But in Uncyclopedia's case, part of it is easy. Wikia currently has no income from Uncyc. I mean, have you actually counted the ads? ;) There is currently only one internal ad per page. So we should get a few clicks to visit other wikis (which have ads) but nothing that actually gives an income. I can't give figures for costs, but I think it's fair to say that keeping a wiki of this size going is not cheap. After all, running costs were part of the reason for the original move to Wikia. So at the moment, it's pretty much all take on Uncyc's side - Wikia gets those clicks, and the prestige of hosting Uncyc. As I've said elsewhere, I don't believe this can continue forever, and I think change will be necessary. But there have been no decisions on that so far, right now we are way too busy with the other 5999 wikis (or however many it is right now) -- sannse (talk) 09:14, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
- For the record, I think that'd be nice too, but I don't think it's that simple. Keep in mind that I know nothing about business(and I do mean nothing), but I get the feeling that it's way more complicated than a simple 'cost vs. earnings' thing, what with taxes and ads and who-clicks-what and users coming and going and all. Besides, neither cost nor earnings is important as SAVINGS! - Don Leddy the Crunch
UnSignpost: June 19th, 2008[edit source]
The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
June 19whenever-th, 2008 • Issue 8
UnSignpost abandoned by creators!
Uncyclopedia's popular newspaper/tacky tabloid rag (delete according to preference) the UnSignpost - already floundering following the loss of founding editor Dr. Skullthumper - has been dealt another, possibly fatal blow, with the news that popular feature-machine and international diplomat Cajek has not been arsed to edit the latest issue. When thursday June 19th dawned without the by-now-traditional UnSignpost dropping onto their talkpages, Unycylopedians everywhere could be heard bravely dealing with the incident by pretending they hadn't noticed. We asked prominent Uncyc contributors for their reactions to the journalistic crisis facing their favourite wiki-based news delivery system. "SCREAM FOR ME BOSTON.... SCREAM FOR ME BOSTON!" said Don Leddy, obviously coping badly with the news. Sensing a possible catastrophe, DJ Irreverent bravely leaped into the breach and created a forum topic that galvanised the community, while UU declared himself too busy to help, then promptly wrote about half of the paper. While still suffering from writer's block, which explains the total lack of lulz and inspiration thus far. It's probably about time to link to nobody cares and close this story now, isn't it? Industrial mogul joins Uncyclopedia, promises great wealth to all.
Donald Trump, the man, the legend, the Tower, the hairstyle, has taken time out of his busy international schedule to create a forum topic promising affluence beyond the dreams of avarice to all on Uncyclopedia! Despite the impeccable credentials displayed on his userpage, so far only Qua and SysRq managed to take advantage of the popular billionaire's altruism before he was ruthlessly banned by noted anti-capitalist Codeine. UnSignpost was particularly impressed with Codeine's ability to resist the temptation to use "you're fired" as a block reason, as we are sure it would have been all but overwhelming. It is to be hoped that, on his return from bannination, Mr Trump will use his undoubted wealth and business connections to help Uncyc beat the ever-encroaching threat of Wikia's advertising plans. N00b ties knot
Popular recent NotM winner Cheapinitreal has further embarrassed the Uncyclopedia community by becoming all respectable and getting married. Confessing to his transgression, Cheap added "all and all, it was a right fine week". The UnSignpost would like to write something really funny here, then wish Cheap all the best, but this issue is being rushed out as it's, like, way late, so we just don't have time. UnSignpost resorts to blatant filler
In a move heralded as "an exciting development in journalism" by guest editor UU, the UnSignpost today employed blatant flannel to fill an annoying white gap at the bottom of the page. It is believed that this is the first such instance of using blatant rubbish to fill a newspaper page in journalistic history. "I'm proud to be at the vanguard of such a groundbreaking technique" said UU, before going off to scour Cajek's ideas page in a desperate hunt for inspiration. "Is this long enough yet?" he added, before concluding "not quite, another few words or so should do the trick". |

Uncyclopedia running out of Interesting Stuff. UnSignpost in Jeopardy!
Recently. Uncyclopedia, in its maternal state. Is running out of interesting stuff as most users keep filling her with the same old stuff day after day. Most if not almost all of the staff at the UnSignpost panicked as this meant that their newspaper, which faced the threat of disabondement yesterday. Could be folded by the Uncyclopedia Penis Man returns!
At exactly 12:29 AM Monday morning, some local idiot decided that it would be a great day to stir up drama and piss people off with some long forgotten shit. And with that, Penis Man made his way back to our great Uncyclopedia with the intent of vandalizing Boomer's userpage. Soon after, the Town drunk Eugene Kay decided to follow suit by uploading the same image by the name of Zombiepenis. Why he decided to make such an apparent strike at the admin who has beat him so much is currently unknown. We at UnSignpost give them both a 25000000:1 chance of being banned. Local Uncyclopedian starts up Devil-Worship Wiki
In a recent devil-related press conference. Cartoon Diablo, the younger and sillier version of Diablo. Has started up The Devil's Wiki, a wiki dedicated to worship of Satanism and The Devil itself. In a recent interview, Cartoon Diablo has said personally that "The wiki's going to contain a lot about the devil, no seriously. There's going to be articles about the caverns of hell, the kind of foods the devil eats and also various artworks done by the Devil himself. And if your asking if it's going to be great. Well... Yeah!, It's going to be satantastic!". Immediately after this was posted on the UnSignpost, 2 people have joined the satanic wiki. The 2 people are described to be a Himilianian Yettie and an Male Amish Human. Both of them have pledged their allegiance to the devil in return for absolute power. In today's weather report, make sure to bring an umbrella as Hell may be raining over within the next few days. Uncyclopedia's Reign of the Newbs Begins
Interestingly enough, lots of new noobs (and old noobs) are getting featured articles these days. Somehow, the cult of the newbs has awoken, and Uncyc has felt its presence link to Double Entendre. Oh... did I say that out loud? "I don't trust the young 'uns," said Farmer O'Dell at his grain silo, "They write funny articles, yeah, but what do they contribute to the community?" Actually, writers like Hyperbole, Cheapinitreal, and The Woodburninator have stepped up, and are already commanders. Except that last one, who is close enough. Big time contributors like YesTimeToEdit, Qua, and Orian57 are cleaning up this pig sty. Older members of uncyc have become less active, and are paving the way for these rising stars to shine. Uh, speaking as myself? I've never been more proud of Uncyclopedia than I have in the last month or so. Keep it up, guys! |

I hate to do this but...[edit source]
Would you check user (or whatever it's called} Ggarfield and YesTimeToEdit? I have suspicions about each of them due to YTTE being nommed UotM by Qua & B4tm4n, along with another vote from a vandal, and Improver's last contrib was April 27. At the time, Ggarfield hadn't edited since January. A few days later, he started contributing a bit. Well, here's the rest of what RAHB said (minus unimportant stuff):
<RAHB> and then <RAHB> 11th of May, Qua gets account <RAHB> Ggarfield disappears again <RAHB> last contrib, 23 June <RAHB> Garfield starts contributing again June 25 <RAHB> and Uncognito was active during the initial february absence of Garfield <RAHB> that could all be coincidence, but my initial suspicion calls for a check when combined <RAHB> and Garfield did immediately come into Uncyclopedia and create a useless group that he was basically the leader of <RAHB> he did obsess over NotM his month <RAHB> and who did he lose to? <RAHB> AE <Dexter111344> Well it all fits! <RAHB> it sure does <Dexter111344> I hope we're wrong, though. <RAHB> Dex: look at Garfield's most recent talk message <RAHB> then look at ban patrol <RAHB> I don't like this one bit <RAHB> Ggarfield also sucks at writing articles <RAHB> Ggarfield anyways, if you have suspicions about Yettie, then by all means ask <RAHB> Ggarfield has been self-nomming recently too <RAHB> nomming shitty things
I hate this but, after finding out TaylorKarras was NXWave, everything about these users is very odd. How they manage to know so much about wiki's, them being obsessed with awards, etc. --MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 06:31, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Here's a less segmented, cleaned up version of what Dex said:
- Improver's last contrib was April 27. At the time, Ggarfield hadn't edited since January. A few days later, he started contributing a bit. Then on the 11th of May, Qua gets an account, and Ggarfield disappears again. Qua's last contrib is 23 June. Garfield starts contributing again June 25. Uncognito was also active during the initial february absence of Garfield. And Garfield did immediately come into Uncyclopedia and create a useless group that he was basically the leader of in the beginning. He also obsessed over NotM his month. And who did he lose to?: AE. The guy NXWave drove off. Since he's been back, Garfield's harrased Sonic80 about something stupid and been self-nomming shitty things (he also, like NXWave, sucks at writing).

July 10th, 2008 • Tenth Issue Spectacular!
Uncyclopedia running out of interesting stuff, UnSignpost starts up shitty telethon! Look at you, sitting there all high and mighty with your Chuck Norris facts and Oscar Wilde quotes, well during this season of laziness and sitting round jacking off, please donate the gift of humor (or humour, we bend that way to no matter how much we are chased out of church) to a poor Uncyclopedian run newspaper near you. Take this poor little article for example; Canadian Tire Money or Canny as no-one calls him, just 8 minutes old and he is already roaming the streets. Illiterate and doing incoherency, long lines of lists and e before i (especially after c), it is only a matter of time before he turns to gay jokes to fund his addictions. Please help this little article achieve its potential as an Injoke by donating the gift of laughter, stupidity... or even just simple bad taste. Successes
There's more you can do... Call you're nearest admin and start a discussion about just how much humor you can donate (read: swearing and shock-porn), or start the 2717231278th forum topic concerning how we all must strive to remove the scourge of shitty articles. In the immortally misattributed words of our founding fathers, stillwaters and Chronarion "Fuck were we high" er... or words of respected member TheLedBalloon "Also, in the ass or the mouth?" oh dear... or even words of Please help Save Cats from Degrading Captions- wait... - Save the Porn onto my Hard-drive- uh... I remember! Save UnSignpost from falling into a pit of lame memes and boring articles, here is a parting word from a little one in need of YOUR help. Ry4N IS TEh GH3Y n00b whO SUX b4lls!!1 ~ Ryan kella Makes you think don't it? We will be taking your calls now. Or now. Not now. Ok, now. Modusoperandi OP'ed!?
This past month of June, the Uncyclopedia community got its first chance at VFS since February, and one new op was decided upon. While there were many great and very capable candidates, one in particular got the most attention and the most votes. Modusoperandi. This long time Uncyclopedian has been to VFS almost every time it gets opened as far as we can trace, and always misses it in the final round by a slim number of votes. However, this month turned out to be a winner for him, so congratulations Modus. MO likes to spend his time writing things and 'chopping some images, but also finds time to goof off in the forums, and relieve the everyday pressure of his fellow colleagues with his off topic sense of humor, which he rarely hides. Modus has a total of 19.5 featured articles as well as 10 featured images. We at UnSignpost congratulate Modus on his winnings, and are willing to put $10 on him becoming the next STM. UnSignpost Takes A Wikibreak
Yeah, the UnSignpost, the newspaper that Uncyclopedia would totally fall apart without, took a wikibreak last week. They seem to be fashionable, so we thought we'd find out what they were all about. They seem to involve time spent not hunched over a keyboard in a darkened room. The UnSignpost reminds you that such activities are hazardous to your health, and should be avoided at all costs. (Note: this is absolutely true - in no way did the UnSignpost just miss a week because no-one could be bothered to edit it, or anything) |

hi sannse i'm syndrome[edit source]
Okay, I was thinking about taking this issue to the Village Dump, but since it's more Wikia-related I figured I'd pester you with it instead. I was looking at my Special:Editcount when I noticed a disturbance in the force: It was listing my count on "all wikis" as well as on Uncyclopedia. My "all wikis" count was significantly lower, too. I would assume that this reflects the activities of the other Syndrome (since I'm not even registered as Syndrome on Wikia), and if that's true, apparently he hasn't made a userpage and he really likes templates. But then I looked at your editcount and the "all wikis" column was all zeros. Wtf, rite? What is this mysterious "all wikis" count and why do I even care? --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 17:51, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Syndrome, sorry for the slow reply - I lost this one. The problem is that the user databases are completely separate. So the ID numbers don't match. User 321 on Uncyclopedia could have any name on Wikia.. but the edit count tries to match them up. So I'm user 968 here.. and instead of showing user 8 (me on Wikia) you see the results for user 968 on Wikia (who has never edited)
- So the solution? Merge the damn databases! *sigh*. Until then, it's best ignored. -- sannse (talk) 18:30, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
Weird VFH stuff[edit source]
So hi Sannse, hope things are treating you well and the like. Now about this here VFH - odd things are happening. Pages are appearing on it and VFHS even after they've been closed, and new noms aren't showing up. But just to be more confusing, this happens some times and not others. Spang said he thought it could be something to do with different DPL servers and cacheing and so forth, but I get lost when he says the more technical stuff. Does it mean owt to you, and if so, is there anything you can hit with a big spanner to get it working again? --UU - natter 13:41, Jul 17
- I think this stopped when we talked about it on IRC? there was some lag around, or were some lag around? or something? -- sannse (talk) 18:31, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

It's The Poo Lit. Surprised?
Uncyclopedia's twice annual writing competition, the Poo Lit Surprise starts this week. In typical Uncyclopedia style, it seems to have come as a surprise to many, not least EMC, who was supposed to be running it, but who has disappeared without trace. Horrified by what was happening to their beloved and prestigious competition, the Uncyclopedia community rushed into action as soon as it noticed (a day or so late), and promptly agreed someone needed to do something. This was followed by some of the community running around in small circles, flapping their hands wildly and panicking a bit, before cuddly authority figure Zombiebaron decisively stepped in and selflessly told Dr. Skullthumper to sort it out and get the fuck on with it. At the time of going to press, both Skullthumper and Zombiebaron may have been available for comment for all we know, but we couldn't be bothered to ask them. VFS: The Race Hots Up For The Second Month Running
In an unprecedented turn of events, and due to namby-pamby unclear rules that have since been firmed up and given a healthy gay colour makeover, Uncyclopedia is voting for further candidates to be admitted to the non-existent cabal. The race is turning out to be quite a close one between several of the frontrunners, so the ever-impartial UnSignpost (founded by Cajek and Dr. Skullthumper) brings you pen pics of the current favourites.
Who will win? All may be reported in future editions of the UnSignpost. If we remember. And if we can be bothered. |

The periodical without any junk in its trunk!
July 24th, 2008 • Twelfth Issue • Now On Time?
Count to a million This week Uncyclopedians continued on their quixotic attempt to "count to a million." Started by Uncyclopedia Wiki-master and Chamber of Commerce Secretary Spang in early March of this year, the project seeks to eventually reach the number one million (1,000,000) through the ancient art of counting. Any person who is capable of taking a number, adding one to it, and expressing the result has been invited to join the massive undertaking, which has seen dozens of contributors come and go. As is always the case here at Uncyc, the project has spawned controversy, criticism, and a spin-off starring Tony Shalhoub as Olipro. The forum is an unprecedented pool of knowledge. As each number is reached, it is discussed in-depth by several Uncyclopedians. Insights such as "114 That's my age + 100 lololol" and "616 fucks fucking fucker's shitty crap" are a testament to the intellecually stimulating conversation that occurs each day. Oftentimes, relevant images are posted; the variety of these pictures can be seen by looking here, here, here, and here. However, not everyone is so optimistic about the project. Some have expressed concern that the entire thing has some kind of sinister purpose. When asked for a comment on the harmless-appearing but diabolically-undertoned project, TheLedBalloon said, "although the project appears harmless, there are definitely diabolical undertones." Another anonymous user stated, "that forum is most surely not pants." Spang himself has expressed his desire to leave behind a legacy, but he has also left open the possibility that "the entire thing is just an urban myth, and doesn't really exist." Regardless of its true meaning or intentions, Uncyclopedians continue to trudge on in their epic quest, reaching 0.075% of their goal this Monday. Editors come and go, the pace quickens and slackens, but someone is always there to figure out the next number in the sequence. At its current rate, the project will reach one million on August 19th, 2526. Until that glorious day, Uncyclopedians can only dream... Cheevers Fires Back! After some light-hearted slights in last week's issue, Gerry Cheevers - Uncyclopedia's resident headcase and #2 hockey authority - has taken exception with the editors of this fine periodical. An ugly scene erupted in the USP press room after Gerry barged in, demanding some sort of justice. Luckily, some quick thinking by our tea-boy and current stand-in editor caused Mr. Cheevers to be distracted by a shiny object long enough to avoid any damage to our delicate newspapering equipment. After it was pointed out that he had in fact come and gone from Uncyclopedia like some sort of cow that grazes on witty satire and coherent parody, Gerry calmed down enough give a brief interview and let some of our junior reporters scratch him behind the ears. When asked about the reasons for his return, Gerry cited many things. Prominent among them were a desire to have humor play a larger role in his life once again, the thrill of writing articles, the subsequent crushing defeat after said articles have been hacked to pieces mercilessly, and his heterosexual man-crush on Mhaille. The one-time WotM nominee fell on hard times in mid-March, and went on sabbatical when his computer decided that it was not long for this world and took its own life. After that, Gerry resorted to breaking into libraries after-hours to cast VFH votes on city-owned, porn-riddled, abysmally slow dial-up computers. Luckily he landed a job in late May and has spent a majority of his time at said job slacking off and editing Uncyclopedia. Mr. Cheevers looks forward to getting back to what he is known for: mediocre writing, scathing Pee Reviews, and keeping Manforman locked up in the Uncyc dungeons. Several prominent Uncyclopedians share his optimism for a permanent return, including noted reviewing robot MrN9000, who stated that he was "willing to bet everything Cajek owns to that effect," and heavy zeppelin Don Leddy, who expressed his delight at seeing Gerry, exclaiming "gimme back my twenty dollars!" |

Revert request on Vagina[edit source]
Could you revert back to this edition of the article which has the picture in it? That was the stable version of the article. thanks! --Allahgator 21:53, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
- It's hardly stable if it's changed umpteen times a day is it?... I changed back to that version to make a point... don't bite the newbies, and don't edit war (OK, two points).
- Sure, it takes two to edit war (or three in this case) but how about talking to the newbie instead? After all, he was at least making an effort to communicate. The image didn't strike me as that funny anyway - it's no loss. -- sannse (talk) 07:59, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ha. Bad decision really. I wanted the reverts to stay in the page history to show how offensive that image is and what extents people will go to have it removed. If an image is that important, it should stay on the page, one would think, right? I could easily have made the protection request. It was me who made the protection request before for anonymous edits on that same article and was actually waiting for someone to notice and do the right thing and what do you know! They did the wrong thing. The image is funny, no question about it. It offends people, thats the point and its funny. Now I will see some completely unnecessary opposition to something which is entirely valid. Thats just the way it happens. About half of the people decide to pick the wrong side of the fence just for the sake of it. You're just mad because I was edit warring, and you decided to revert to the wrong version for that reason. I'll let you cool down a little bit and deal with this later. --Allahgator 12:11, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

The "E-mail this user" thing is broken. It says "You must be logged in and have a valid e-mail address in your preferences to send e-mail to other users." even if I'm logged in and have a valid e-mail address in my prefs[edit source]
Oh. I should've saved some of that for here. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 04:46, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- hummmm... works for me... can you check the email address is actually confirmed in your preferences? On the "user profile" tab, scroll down to the email options, and see whether they have a "Confirm your e-mail address" link on the second line. If it's not that, they I suspect it's a problem with Uncyclopedia's SEPARATE USER DATABASE. In which case I'll have to get the techys on it -- sannse (talk) 20:43, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

It seems there's been quite a deal of misunderstanding, or at least a general ruckus, over one of our newer users, 4096.256.16.1, also known as "Hex". We were in IRC earlier today and, apparently in an innocent attempt at humor, he signed off and rejoined the chat with the nick "NXWave". This was immediately taken out of context by a lot of people around, and they eventually compared hostmasks and found that the nicknames of the two were from the same person. This led to Hex being banned by TheLedBalloon for being an NXWave sockpuppet. I can't guarantee that Hex is not a sockpuppet, but from what he tells me now, and from my experience talking to him over the past month or so, I don't believe he is, and neither do many of those who initially accused him. However, as with most suspicions of NXWave sockpuppetry, I'd like to request a checkuser to be sure, and a subsequent unbanning if he does not in fact match up. Thank you for your time, we all appreciate it dearly :) -RAHB 08:09, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well... there is no direct match between this user and any others, according to checkuser. I have to admit, that my sannse-senses are tingling a little, because for some reason it appears I have checked some of his range in the past. However, nothing comes up, so I have to assume it was some time ago (although, then the links shouldn't still show as visited). So all in all, I would say that we should assume this is a new user, until or unless something else comes up. Personally, I think the only solution is biometrics, but for some reason Wikia just won't go for it :( -- sannse (talk) 09:46, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

The biggest little whorehouse on the internet Oftentimes, Uncyclopedians choose to create something on their userpages, safe from the prying eyes and hungry 'delete' buttons of admins. These entities can range from the ridiculously complex to the awesomely cartoonish. The newest user creation on this silly wiki is that of a charming gentle-bot by the name of MrN9000. At 'The Whorehouse', writers can bathe in the attention they so desperately seek. A sort of hands-on Pee Review, the Whorehouse encourages other users to edit, trim, improve, rub up against, and generally increase the quality of the articles of others. Authors suffering from mental blocks (or physical blocks) can turn to this dimly lit establishment for inspiration. While considered a 'smashing' idea by some, the brothel has drawn its share of criticism. It may have even caused a site-wide questioning of the rules of VFH, guidelines of Pee Review, and the vailidity of the Committee That Selects Zombiebaron's Daily Banstick. The main concern seems to be articles getting 'mucked up' by having too many contributors. Opponents to this opinion have pointed out that this is a wiki, and, in theory, an infinite number of contributors contributing to an infinite number of articles for an infinite amount of time were eventually destined to create the Whorehouse, anyway. Some users, such as Ljlego, have taken advantage of the open space to hold some sort of charity-scamming orgy. Whatever the destiny of the Whorehouse, it is sure to catch every Uncyclopedian's attention for at the least five minutes immediately following the reading of this article.
Virus exposes user vulnerability to death Yes, it's true. Death is inevitable for all users who have logged in recently. Apparently, a rouge admin created a computer virus so potent you actually contract testicular cancer. Real cancer. Like, In real life. Seriously. And how does one contract the virus? Users are warned that that the simple act of logging in to Uncyclopedia will cause one to contract the fatal disease. "Yes, I know cancer isn't a disease nor a virus" said one doctor "but still, it sucks. I mean - it's cancer - IN YOUR BALLS. Come on." So how exactly does on know when they have cancer? Symptoms may include one or more of the following:
Make sure to constantly check your testicles by feeling them for irregularities with your fingers. ... That's right. ... Just feel 'em up ... nice ... Ahem! Uh... Simple vigilance is a big help. The best time to check is after a hot shower, when the scrotum is looser. And what of the female users? No, not even the three of them are safe. It has been proven that even female users can contract testicular cancer. How, you ask? Well, by a miracle of God, the female will grow testicles, that will then become "cancerfied" (or "cancer-ific", if you prefer.) The only users who are safe from this horrible plague are IP addresses, as they lack testes and the ability to grow any. Remember kids, no matter how much Dr. Health, Esq. tells you cancer is great, don't believe him. Oh? ... What's that? ... I said something about dying? ... Oh. ... Well, if one of your testicles was three times bigger than the other and your semen was filled with blood, would you not kill yourself? That's right... |

Actually long time ago I've made a rename request to another name but you've refused unless I ask again nicely. So I've read the lecture and I'm sure, because I've been using this name "Edmundwoods" in the Wikimedia Projects since December of last year (wow, 8 months! That's the womb time of a prematured baby!) and I like this username. Sorry for late reply because I've been busy helping the Malay Uncyclopedia to fight the Malay Wikipedia :-P --Edmund the King of the Woods! 04:57, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

The Newspaper That Gets Its News Solely From Vandalism Johnny Is Teh FAGXORZ!!111 SHUT UP DOUCHEBAG!!11
August 7th, 2008 • Fourteenth Issue • Just like Grandma used to make!
Uncyclopedia Forum set to consume the Internet Top scientists at the Uncycloversity this week predicted that a Village Dump topic, started in June by prominent Uncylopedian and alchemist Spang, will one day consume the entire internet. According to the university's top expert, Dr. Skullthumper, Ph.D.: "This is one of those things that could go on forever. I mean, at least counting to a million has a definite ending. With this, there is no end, since everyone wants to be the last person to edit." Wikia staff member and Uncyclopedian Sannse predicts that the forum topic will take up all of Wikia's hardware by late 2009 and will then begin to "consume all around it, like I did that time I tried marijuana." She went on to add, "nothing will be safe – not even Wikipedia," before blessing herself and staring reverently at a statue of Jimmy Wales. Others, however, are more optimistic. According to Modusoperandi, "eventually someone will invent some sort of robot or hobgoblin to automatically edit the topic, and then it will have to be locked. Either that, or someone will figure out that there is no prize, rendering the whole thing pointless. And then I shall be the winner!" Spang was unavailable for comment because, according to his spokesperson, "he is busy in his cave dreaming up more crazy schemes to destroy the internet." Admins everywhere! If you're a wiki-troll, cyberbullying vandal or extremely crappy article, you'd better start watching your behind. Three new deputies were voted in by the Uncyclopedia Sheriff's Department: Dr. Skullthumper, RAHB, and Roman Dog Bird. The trio were bestowed this great honor last Friday by Codeine. This brings the total amount of active authority figures who could wallop you over the head with a banhammer to 29. The reason for the unusally high number of new sysops is that a clear consensus could not be reached, and also that all three of these individuals are "awesome". The new admins were extremely pleased and greatly honored by their new title. None of them wasted any time in executing their first sysop move (RAHB and Dr. Skullthumper banned Cajek; Roman Dog Bird deleted one hundred articles, then banned Cajek). The prescence of these new neighborhood patrollers was evident immediately, with QVFD being renamed "Skull and RAHB's House of Huffing", and placing {{VFD}} in an article now automatically classifying it as "Roman Dog Bird's bitch". The reactions from the new sysops were similar, with all three pledging to delete bad articles, ban unworthy knuckleheads, continue plans for world domination, and "try not to muck up the site too much". RAHB has set himself lofty goals, including "keeping it cool" and some wiki-related nonsense that this reporter didn't understand. Roman Dog Bird wished the readers of the Signpost to know that he said "something", and went on to add that he will continue to "clean crap up...only now with more power." Dr. Skullthumper is thankful that no one has caught on to the trio of new ops and expresses his optimism as far as not being immediately de-opped, but also listed several early accomplishments as well as future goals. With these three brave new souls now patrolling the corridors of this silly wiki, it is truly a dark time for terrible articles, merciless vandals, and Cajek. |

August 14th, 2008 • Fifteenth Issue • May contain traces of humor
Uncyclopedia kidnapped! In a shocking development, a brazen individual absconded with Uncyclopedia just over a week ago. Users were shocked when their attempts to access the site between 18:33 and 20:07 UTC on August 4th resulted in a sinister message being displayed, promising the swift return of the wiki should the kidnapper's demands be met. Panic ensued, with several Uncyclopedians wandering off to places unknown, never to return. Once the site was restored and the intertubes reconnected, the identity of the culprit was obvious: Orian57 had made the last edit before the ninety-minute gap, with the ominous and puzzling edit summary of "I AM STEALING UNCYCLOPEDIA!!!" The site itself seemed to be mostly fine after its harrowing ordeal, with the exception of VFP, which turned all of Zombiebaron's against votes into ten for votes during the first few hours back. This reporter caught up to Orian57, and had the opportunity to talk with him at some length about the reasons for the abduction. After consulting with his lawyer, Orian agreed to comment on the situation. On why he stole the wiki, he said, "my motivation for this cyber-terrorism wasn't something trite like 'because I could' or 'it wasn't me'. No. It was because nobody was paying me any attention!" It seems that Orian, in a desperate bid for attention, locked the Uncyclopedia server in a basement, and attempted to edit it so that all content referred to him. Perhaps his subconcious got the better of him, or perhaps the spirit of Sophia came to Uncyclopedia's rescue. In any case, Orian claims he heard a female voice speaking to him, which convinced him to return the server and allow "uncyclopedians around the world to stop masturbating and return to peeling potatoes or whatever they do." Some sort of competition finishes
So as you may have noticed, recently a contest of titanic proportions has been gripping the world like no other event. Palms have been sweaty, nails have been chewed, bribes, threats, and allegations of stimulant abuse have been rife. But now, the latest incarnation of the Poo Lit Surprise has drawn to a close, and so our attention can drift to that bunch of steroid-enhanced nutters at the Olympics. Finally, the questions on everyone's lips have been answered. Providing they were related to the Poo Lit Surprise, and who was going to win. Other questions, unfortunately, remain unanswered. However, if you do want to know who won, and haven't found out already, you can find out here. We could just tell you here, but where's the fun in that? We should, however, point out that if you haven't seen all of the articles yet, there are some real crackers amongst them, and not just the winners either - which probably reflects well on the Uncyclopedia Community as a whole, although it may just hint that everyone saved their best articles for this one small period of time and now has nothing else to offer for another 6 months. We'll see, but in the meantime, have a look at all the entries - there should be chuckles on offer whatever your sense of humo(u)r! |

The Newspaper With Love In Every Paragraph!
August 21st, 2008 • Issue Sixteen • The periodical without any junk in its trunk
And the award for Sluttiest User goes to... ...Mhaille! With over fifteen thousand links to his userpage strewn willy-nilly about Uncyclopedia, Mhaille takes home the Slutty for the sixth consecutive time. Everyone's favorite moustachioed chappie overtook Codeine in early 2007 and never looked back. When asked about this momentous achievement, Mhaille was still in shock from the victory. "I'd like to give thanks to my mother and my father, for first taking me into the family business. Without their years of experience and their guidance I would not have become the Slut I am today," he said. "It is for them that I hope to make it a seventh title!" Coming in at second on the list was the legendary Benson. Despite having only twenty edits in the past year, Benson has managed to rack up over twelve thousand links to his userpage. He still enjoys a several thousand link lead over slut number three, Thekillerfroggy. When asked how Benson managed to not only maintain his lead, but actually increase it, TKF said, "A wizard did it." In-depth investigation by this reporter revealed that Froggy's signature may have something to do with it, as random selection feature will occasionally cause TKF's sig to spam dozens of links to Benson's userpage, mostly in Dr. Skullthumper's userspace. UnSignpost gets new paper-boy Uncyclopedia's semi-official newspaper, enjoyed by literally several readers each week, has hired a brand new paper boy. This individual has been delivering the UnSignpost for the past two weeks. This cost cutting measure was announced after the guy with the keys to the delivery robots disappeared, taking the keys, several thousand dollars in cash, and a stapler with him. Unconfirmed rumours made up by me suggest that he intends to staple the money to the keys before turning the stapler on himself. The paper boy, who calls himself Gerrycheevers, says that it is a tough job, but he is glad to be able to contribute something. "It's a tough job," he told UnSignpost reporters "but I am glad to be able to contribute something." The young paper boy is saving up his pocket money to buy a new frisbee. The mammoth task has taken its toll on young Mr. Cheevers, leaving him with severe wrist pain and an acute hatred of humanity. "It totally messed up my wrists. I was out of action for days!" he said. Most Uncyclopedians are said to be happy with the new service, saying that they prefer the more personal touch that comes with human delivery. "Those damn robots trampled my garden, broke down my door and killed my dog with their death-rays" said one unfortunate Uncyclopedian. In a related story, Gerrycheevers has been 'throttled' from such activites as moving pages and making mass edits. His repetitive edits have apparently pissed off at least one admin, and Gerry is now limited to one edit per four hours. He has used these edits carefully, and has managed to find a new paperbot. This week, the UnSignpost will be delivered by MantiBot. Subscribers can only hope the new delivery system works out, or the UnSignpost may be doomed. |

Woop Woop! it's the sound of the Police UnSignpost!
August 28th, 2008 • SEVENTEENTH ISSUE SPECTACULAR • Word to your mother
Porn Wars End in Sticky Truce At exactly 10:28 pm (UTC), Sir Led Balloon did the honors of emblazoning a golden '1000' in the count to a million project, a true milestone on the journey to seven-digit greatness. Another user celebrated by gracing the page with an unprecedented one-thousand-and-one pixel high "1001", which was quickly taken down. The user was, needless to say, embarrassed, yet happy that the uncouth horde of devoted Uncyclopedians had finally reached the number 1000, as such a milestone had not been reached since the number 100 and the end of the Porn Wars. On that note, the Porn Wars ended earlier this week with a tentative truce between Commander Jailbait and General Pervert. The war began the week before, when Regret posted a pin-up girl to balance Orian's photo of a scantily-clad male, claiming he was "bringing balance back to the universe." Regret also stated he would "fight to the death"... or at least until Leddy stepped in, this time to call a "three-pornstuffs rule", which eventually ended the erotic feud. Meth, a constant editor on the forum, said "'twas a fortunate day for all under 18." Still, even with peace returning to the forum, not all is well in the land of counting. On the subject of reaching 1000, one dissenting user said: "Perhaps we should seriously consider stopping there. I mean that would be 1/1000 of the goal! Imagine doing this whole thing, 1000 times. That would mean 3000 archives, give or take." To which another user responded, "unfortunately for you, Nobody cares." Nevertheless, as long as there are users with nothing better to do, the Forum will always trudge on, giving Uncyclopedians something with which to kill thirty seconds, and also giving UnSignpost reporters something to write about. Lack of cure for testicular cancer kills 100 Uncyc members Uncycloversity members are still failing to find a cure for our previously mentioned testicular cancer, and to date, 100 people have died of said cancer. When nobody died, some user said it was a rumor made by some other user to piss us all off, right before clutching his balls in pain and dropping dead. Within an hour, about 16 more people died a cancer-related death. A live update shows that 105 users are now dead. You could be next! Don't panic, that'll make you die faster. Regret Tenenbaum, the user who originally warned of the disease, had this to say: "I TOLD YOU SO!" to which he added "Na-nanana-nanana!" The death toll is expected to reach into the thousands, with no end in sight. A memorial was set up earlier today to remember the dead, with one number added for every fallen Uncyclopedian. With fear and panic filling the hearts of users everywhere, there is one question that is on everyone's mind: "WHY GOD, WHY?!" Another live update show that 200 people have now died, and out of those, 10 people killed themselves in anxiety. Remember to always feel your testicles with your fingers. That's right. It helps prevent the cancer from reproducing. |

Uncyclopedia copies Conservapedia Recently, on the fact-based no-spin-zone wiki known as Conservapedia, there has been debate raging over whether to ban all atheists from contributing. Apparently conservapedians believe atheists (those who deny the existence of the creator) to be at the very least a hinderance, and at the very most a hideous group of venom-spitting demon-eyed savages who feed on the blood of children. If this motion garners enough support it may become a 'Conservapedia Commandment', along with 'no girls allowed' and 'slow down, this is a neighborhood.' Mild amusement and complete apathy were rampant among Uncyclopedians yesterday. Some poked fun at the silly conservatives for proposing such a Nazi-esque measure. Others took up the reigns in a new thread: should atheists (of Cthulhu) be barred from Uncyclopedia? It seems support for this action is widespread, and soon 'Cthulhu tests' will be administered to random users at random times. Failure of such tests will result in soul consumption. User Heerenveen had this to say: "I believe that it shouldn't matter whether you are an avid worshipper of Cthulhu, just someone who pretends to like Cthulhu to fit in with your mates, or indeed a foaming-at-the-crotch atheist (of Cthulhu), you should be infinibanned from Uncyc regardless. Unless, of course, you are Cajek," to which Orian57 added, "Richard Dawkins is so sexy." As is the norm here on Uncyclopedia, the controversy was immediately parodied, and then the parody of the controversy was summarily parodied. It has yet to be seen whether the parody of the parody will in fact be parodied.
IN A WORLD where JUSTICE is a distant memory...where HOPE seems desperately out of reach...where THROATY BARITONES are hard to come by... ...ONE MAN performed voice-overs for OVER NINETY FOUR THOUSAND FILMS. His DEEPLY SONOROUS VOICE could turn even the most BORING movie into AN ALL-OUT THRILLER... ...Most famously known for THAT GEICO COMMERCIAL HE DID, that man's NAME was DON LAFONTAINE. Critics hailed him as 'THAT MOVIE TRAILER ANNOUNCER GUY' and 'THE DUDE WITH THE CRAZY VOICE'... ...On Monday, LaFontaine PASSED AWAY suddenly when a FIERY EXPLOSION in a SHRAPNEL FACTORY caused the TURBO-CHARGED SPORTSCAR in which he was being pursued by MONGOL HORDES to CAREEN OVER A CLIFF. He was 68...

UnSignpost: September 11th, 2008[edit source]
The Newspaper that won't leave you the same way they did!
September 11th, 2008 • Nineteenth Issue • All your readers are belong to us
Uncyclopedia celebrates 9/11
8 years ago, America was attacked or something. Uncyclopedians, who are true patriots, celebrated the eighth anniversary in true American fashion: by doing mostly nothing of interest to anyone but themselves. The UnSignpost devoted nine-hundred-eleven minutes of silence to the event Thursday by not even bothering to send itself out. "The Unsignpost was there nine years ago during those super not-kewl terrorist attacks," said chief writer Gerrycheevers. "I wasn't part of the staff then, so I promise that, in the 911th issue, we will devote a whole article to the events of that frabjuous day." In the 911th year of publication, the Unsignpost promises to dedicate the whole issue to 9/11 and those rascally terrorists. "We've already got 911 stories lined up for publication!" said staff photographer Larry. "It's too bad we have to wait so long to get them to the public, but that's what happens when you honor a holiday like this the way you're SUPPOSED to." Uncyclopedia's main page was 11/9-themed for the occasion. When Mordillo and Spang were alerted that nothing interesting happened on November ninth, 2001, Larry, Mordillo's public relations officer, claimed that "it [didn't] matter: One date is the same as the next. Why don't you Unsignpost people shut the hell up? Oh, and uh, I won't be able to come in Monday: it's my sister's wedding." Other wikis in cyberspace exist, and therefore did things relating to 9/11. Conservapedia, a conservative parody of Uncyclopedia, celebrated by drawing figures of Mohammed on their private nuclear stockpile. Legopedia celebrated by informing the public of Lego's new action series: 9/11: the Suckiest Thing Ever. Jengapedia honored the fallen by sponsoring a 911 minute championship Jenga competition. Liberalpedia, on the other hand, did nothing of any consequence. >:( FUCK YOU LIBERALS!! FUCK YOUUUU!!!! The Unsignpost would like to print a retraction of it's 47th issue from September 11th, 2001, wherein the terrorist attacks were called "super-kewl" and the terrorists themselves hailed as heroes. Those responsible have been sacked.
Conservation Week, also known as 'Rewrite-a-thon' or 'De-crap-ification', is upon our community once again. Twice a year, Uncyclopedians band together to clean out the weeds and squirrel corpses from promising trees found in the rewrite category, among other places. Due to the retirement of co-founder Jocke Pirat and quasi-inactiveness of co-founder THE, another user has stepped in with promises to annoy every user until they rewrite at least one article. That user shall remain anonymous. Opening day for this well-liked, popular, and intriguing event is Monday the 15th. The winner of the competition will receive the Greasy Mechanic Award for having rewritten the most articles in the two-week competition. Past winners include THE and Jocke Pirat. Be sure to participate early so as to avoid annoying requests to "rewrite an article, you lazy git!" The event has thrown into sharp relief the lack of Uncyclopedia events, or the excess of Uncyclopedia events, depending on who you ask. Ideas like Forest Fire Week and Everyone Edit A Ton Of Articles Week have not received much support, but may be enacted in the future to keep ADD-riddled Uncyclopedians something to do for five minutes. RC takes home NotM After years of fruitless nominations, Rcmurphy has finally won n00b of the Month. The announcement came last week, when none of the three candidates fufilled the requirements necessary for winning the n00by. It seemed the two new users had both failed to write an article, and So So did not meet the main n00bishness requirement. Since there was no clear winner, the award went to Rc by Rule 4.1, Clause 3 of the NotM eligibility guidelines. As far as the NotM badge itself, it was initally placed on So So's userpage. After relenquishing the honor to Rcmurphy, So So proceeded to foul the badge and offer it to the user who wanted it the most. After the planned Panel of Penis Monkeys from Outer Space cancelled, a phone-in contest was held, in which Colin "All your base" Heaney dominated the competiton. He took home the badge and now proudly displays the feces-ridden merit on his userpage. In a related story, Rcmurphy is up for NotM yet again. However, he is facing stiff competition from W.T. Door, a U.S. Navy seamen who spends his time swabbing decks, battoning down hatches, and writing cool stuff. |

UnSignpost: October 3rd, 2008[edit source]
The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
October 2nd, 2008 • ALL-KITTEN ISSUE • Your #1 source for Cajek ban jokes!
According to Wikia staff member Sannse, Uncyclopedia's advertising revenue is below expectations and must rename itself to appeal to the younger generation. "I think the problem is that 'Uncyclopedia' has lost its edge," Sannse said to a crowd of squirrels and kittens gathered around the Uncyclo-stables last Saturday, "...all of which is contained in its name." Older users, like Mordillo, the jew who secretly controls "Uncyc," and TheLedBalloon, who is an inanimate balloon, strongly petition for the name to stay the same. The Unsignpost couldn't be bothered to actually read the forum that Sannse created, but we're assuming that everyone's against changing the name to "Asparagus.org" or something. The name change will reflect the personalities and interests of every single contributor. "Yeah, Asparagus.org is gonna have to do until we figure out what would be a good name," Sannse yelled at a local gathering of squirrels in Uncyclopedia's break room. Many users have complained about the change, but not AsparagusSignPost, which has run into a little trouble with the law recently, and doesn't want to go back to jail by disobeying "the man" or causing "drama". Because, as we ALL know, some head writers have been banned a whole bunch of times for being "different". So to Asparagus.org we say: "Keep the funnies coming, unless someone is forecasting your doom again..."
For the first time in over two weeks, the flaming death of this silly wiki has been predicted in some form. Last time it was that stain that looked puzzlingly like Jimbo Wales, the time before it was that bird that flew overhead. You know the one I mean. This time around, undead user Necropaxx has pointed out several recent disturbing trends that seem to mean only one thing: Uncyc is about to suffer its death throes. It seems this time that the demise of the wiki will also utterly destroy the souls of every one of the dozens of users who contribute here regularly. Tidings such as this have frightened new users such as September NotM Multiliteralist, who had his to say: "Oh no." Several of the signs that Uncyclopedia is doomed are unarguably true: VFP is stagnant due to the lack of Zombiebaron activity. The Pee Review queue is backed up worse than a public toilet after Cinco de Mayo. Modusoperandi seems to be malfunctioning, as he has dispensed with his usual biting wit in favor of just plain biting. It appears, in at least a few users' eyes, that Uncyc has "jumped the kitten". Lack of News Wreaks Havoc on UnSignpost In an unprecedented press conference earlier this week, UnSignpost editor-in-chief Mr. Gerry Cheevers (the user, not the hockey player) admitted that "This week's issue is actually still a blank template", further stating "I've been swamped at work, and today developed cold-like symptoms." However, some experts disagree on the cause of an UnSignpost devoid of news. "There is an obvious explanation for the lack of gratifying news stories in the USP this week," said Mr. News Guy, the world-renowned news reporter, kitten enthusiast, and unicycle-fetish expert. "There is just no news to report on," he continued, to which the reporter we borrowed from UnNews responded "And what's causing this lack of news?" "That's just it! There's no news to report on!" "So... you're saying is, the reason there's no news is because there's no news?" "Exactly! And it's just a matter of time until some attention whore writes a stupid and redundant story on the fact that there's no news!" This story is dedicated to the memory of Mr. News Guy, whose body was recovered from the Los Angeles river the next day. |

UnSignpost: October 10th 2008[edit source]
The periodical without any junk in its trunk!
October 9th, 2008 • Twenty-First Issue • Bursting with Crunchy Goodness!
Uncyclopedia Stock Plummets Uncyclopedia stockholders are in a state of panic after shares of Uncyclomedia fell over 60% this week amid fears of a writing recession. "I just can't gamble on a rebound," said one investor as he carefully climbed out onto his window ledge overlooking Wall Street, perhaps seeking some fresh air. "With the current economic and comedic climate, and rumors of the destruction of the website, it looks like Uncyc Incorporated is about to fold." Other investors are slightly more optimistic. We ran into a smartly dressed woman in the Uncyc break room and were intrigued as to why a female would ever have enough confidence in the wiki to invest the large sum of one dollar bills she was counting. It turned out that she was a stripper, but we did eventually find someone who still had faith in the company. "There's so much more to the Uncyclopedia Empire than just the humor wiki," said confident money-man Chet Hardluck. "There's the kitten factory, the escort service, the games & sports division...and don't forget the world's largest boron-smelting plant!" When it was pointed out that these claims are in fact bollocks (except for the boron plant), Hardluck joined the queue of businessmen waiting their turn to get some frsh air on the suddenly popular ledge. The fate of the Uncyclopedia corporation remained unclear at press time. Some say that if Uncyc stock plummets through enough negative numbers, the stock will reset itself at zero, resulting in huge negative negative profits for those who bought the stock whilst it was negative. Uncyclopedia announces invasion of YouTube The first upload began a series of incursions onto YouTube by all types of Uncyclopedians. Some made sense, such as article narrations and UnTunes. Some were questionable, such as the gangsta rap video by the usually timid Sycamore. But nearly 99% of all material in the 'Uncyclopedia' category is patent nonsense, such as a visualization of AAAAAAA!, faceoffs between George Bush & Kanye West and Steve Ballmer & various other injokes, and a 'don't blink contest' featuring Gert5 staring into a camera for nine hours. |

- This took me much too long to write back to, sorry about that.
- Real people! That's so intense! I've never seen one of those... (:P) and, a good 'haha' is deserved for the first few lines. Yeah, I take back most of what I said about red haired people--I saw an unnatural amount of them in the past 6 days, and most of them were quite pleasing to look at, male and female. Maybe there is a chance! You're idea is a beautiful red head....mine is a guy with really long hair, eyeliner, and A LOT of silver jewelry. :/
- As you can see by the lack of writage, I am quite limited still. Haha, yeah. The last time I went to California I got lost in Disney Land...and rode on a train for some random reason...and saw the Hollywood thing, and was 8. ooh! And I saw Barney! </random> I should find myself more intarwebs though, really. Is anything interesting going on since the past week? The HRH MuCal. Tayor

UnSignpost: 21 October 2008[edit source]
The Newspaper that won't leave you the same way they did!
October 16th, 2008 • Twenty-Second Issue • Now with 40% more Batman!
Uncyc Users throw Support Behind Joe Plumber Uncyclopedians today officially declared their undying allegience to Joe Plumber, a newcomer in the upcoming U.S. presidential election. Plumber was thrust into the spotlight last night at the second of many dreadfully boring presidential debates between those two or more candidates currently jockeying for the office. His name was mentioned no less than twenty-four dozen times by the candidates, with each claiming that Joe sided with him on issues such as healthcare, tax increases, and the 'Canada Problem'. One candidate even went so far as to claim that he and Plumber were 'buddies', and that Plumber installed a new bathtub in his palatial presidential candidate mansion last July. Several prominent Uncyclopedians spoke out in vehement support of Plumber, citing his many qualifications to be the leader of the free world. "He's a maverick in the plumbing industry," said staunch pro-Plumberer Colin "All your base" Heaney. "He also has a plan to live the American Dream, through the infinite wisdom of buying his own plumbing company. America needs dreamers, Gerry." Despite being asked to stop commenting, Heaney went on to say that Plumber "cleans people's pipes on a regular basis." Other supporters of Joe Plumber's campaign and platform included inanimate objects such as TheLedBalloon. "The most important thing to know about Joe Plumber is that he is AMERICAN, in bold italics underlined and all caps, just like that." When asked to give another example of how patriotic both he and Plumber are, Mr. Balloon replied, "Just picture him standing in front of a flag with the Star Spangled Banner playing in the background, and you'll know why I support his presidency." Current polls show Plumber trailing in the presidential race, with an estimated zero percent of all voters. His backers are trying to spread the word about Joe's tax relief plan, his rugged good looks, and his skill with a pair of slip-nose pliers. Uncylopedia Issues Food Stamps Due to the recent downturn in the economy, Uncyclopedia officials have issued hundreds of food stamps to users who have no means of feeding themselves. These users might be out of a job or have no arms. In any case, these food stamps are to be given out on alternate Thursdays, except for odd-numbered months, months ending in 'y' or 'r', and April. They will be available at the Uncyclopedia Meat Depot, the boron smelting plant, or by calling the new food stamps hotline. These food stamps will be valid for purchasing a wide variety of nutritious and delicious items from the Uncyclopedia Farmer's Market and Livestock Emporium. Included are items such as pre-packed huffable kittens, gummi grues, and AAAAAAA! cookies.

Technical issues[edit source]
Hya, did you get the chance to check what's up with the permissions error? Thanks. ~ 11:02, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, it sounds like a cookie problem... can you clear your cookies and log back in? If that doesn't help let me know. Thanks -- sannse (talk) 11:06, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
Looks like we have more technical issues. I don't know if it's just me, but I seem to be unable to get on to my Special:Preferences, and when I try, I get this:
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:
/*id=20081024222212*/ SELECT count(*) AS count FROM .global_watchlist WHERE gwa_user_id='76227'
from within function "". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'uncyclo.global_watchlist' doesn't exist (10.8.2.7)".
Any ideas? Thanks. Judge Adriano "Legal" Zarbi

- Argh, yes, I know what that was. It was due to a new feature. It couldn't be added to Uncyclopedia due to the shared user database and from that error it looks like some stray code was looking for it here. It's been fixed. Sorry for the problem -- sannse (talk) 08:10, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Images[edit source]
What ho Sannse, can I trouble you about images? Specifically, in a fit of boredom/narcissism I created an updated version of Image:UUspark.gif and uploaded it, only to see it completely not change. Thoroughly confused, I tried again to similarly no avail. I then tried uploading it as Image:UUspark2.gif, and it totally doesn't seem to be showing. So finally I tried it again as a jpeg (Image:UUspark.jpg) and saw nothing again. Now, I realise that images of me may cause sensitive souls distress, so is the database taking it upon itself to protect the populace, is my computer playing silly buggers, or is there something up? --UU - natter 14:25, Oct 29
- Hmm, either my computer has stopped playing silly buggers, or something got fixed. Either way, this has become that most joyous of things: a request for help that has already been sorted, and you can therefore ignore. Huzzah! --UU - natter

More on this ongoing situation as we get it. Probably. Glorious return to form for MrN! Fellow poopsmith and genial man-about-town UU said of the momentous occasion: "you what? MrN? Oh yeah, him. Good bloke. Knows his underwear". Then he scratched his nose reflectively and wandered off. MrN himself was unavailable for comment at the time of going to press/we couldn't be bothered to interview him (delete as you think applicable), but the UnSignpost fondly imagines he would have smiled enigmatically, raised an eyebrow quizzically, nodded appreciatively, and said "PANTS!" predictably. The pants themselves were also unavailable for comment. |

The Only Newspaper That Is Not Controlled By The Cabal Who Are You What Are You Doi- AAAAHHHHH
November 13th, 2008 • Issue 24 • So close to journalism you'll be hard pushed to know the difference!
Uncyclopedian does something vaguely noteworthy in "real life" Mickey has so far failed to live up to Uncyclopedia's proudest traditions, by actually being quite good at the game. Indeed, at the time of writing, he'd won several games, including what he modestly described as "an awesome numbers game, beating Carol". He also shamelessly mentioned his connection to the site in a recent episode, leading to quite literally no extra edits to the Countdown article - still, thanks for the plug, Mick! Having spent time in the company of such notable international icons as Des O'Connor (no, we don't have a page on him, so there's no link), Paul Zenon (nope, nothing on him either) and Suzy Dent (spotting a pattern here, non-UK readers?) Mickey is now Uncyclopedia's most prominent celebrity, and it's surely only a matter of time before he appears on Strictly Come Dancing or Celebrity Big Brother, and has a lurid kiss-and-tell exposé in Heat Magazine. Various "...of the month" award candidates - November's in-depth analysis Uncyclopedian of the Month: Controversial nominees abound here, as serial ban collector Cajek goes head-to-head with Wikia corporate mouthpiece Sannse. The hyperactive one with the light blue sig is in the lead at present. But! As with certain other popular recent votes, there is a third candidate inexplicably attracting little attention - Dexter111344, a site maintenance and VFD stalwart. Who will win? Only you can decide (and all the other people who vote, obviously). Noob of the Month: No-one. Yet. Find a noob doing something vaguely decent and nominate them please! Otherwise the UnSignpost may just have to bring back the ultimate dead horse for yet more flogging and nom Rcmurphy again. Useless Gobshite of the Month: Kip the Dip is out on his own for this one so far. Having proved an exemplary gobshite for months on end, despite being cruelly denied the recognition of this award, the UnSignpost feels that his time is now, and is abandoning all pretence at unbiased journalism: VOTE KIP FOR UGotM! |

UnSignpost: 20th November2008[edit source]
The Newspaper That Won't Tell Everyone That You Wet the Bed! Oops...
November 20th, 2008 • #100/4 • Sucking Journalism's Fat Wang. Badly.
UnSignpost Stumbles past 6 month milestone In true UnSignpost fashion, the editors noticed this about 2 weeks late - the Signpost having been so gloriously conceived (and never was a word more aptly suited to this juvenile-as-all-get-out publication) by Dr. Skullthumper and Cajek back in early May. The first issue rolled off the presses on May 8th, bringing you such earth-shattering news as "Rcmurphy nommed for Noob of the Month again" and "Uncyclopedia F**king Doomed", as well as establishing Signpost tradition with "Spacefiller of the week" (something about Grand Theft Auto). The editor's office here at USP should probably have had a revolving door installed, having been occupied at various times since Cajek and Skull abandoned it by THEDUDEMAN, Gerrycheevers, Heerenveen and some other numpty - although this is small change compared to the number of delivery bots and boys that have thrust the latest issue, still warm, through your letter flaps. Over the months, many other contributors have helped to keep the UnSignpost in its deserved position of "only weekly-ish newspaper on the wiki" - possibly by being so lame that no-one wanted to bother doing another one. And, having brought you such shattering exclusives as "Wookiepedia Too Cool For Cajek", "Porn Wars End in Sticky Truce" and "RC takes home NotM", the UnSignpost shows no sign of speeding up. Maybe one day, the unstoppable forces of apathy will finally overcome those who still labour under the impression that people actually care about seeing block log entries and biopics arrive on their talk page weekly, and the UnSignpost will grind to a halt. But until then, it will continue to bring you all the old news you've already seen somewhere else, whether you like it or not! UnSportsPost
In response to quite literally some demand, your ever-topical, finger-on-the-pulse UnSignpost brings you all the latest sports news that's unfit to print!

lol chekusar[edit source]
I'm going to request for you to do a checkuser on someone. If it's inappropriate for me make this request, you can just ban Cajek for it or something, because I'll be gone for a while after today. Tinkywinkyisgay isn't a vandal or troublemaker but his mind operates on an entirely different wavelength from anyone else ever, and he's been spending the last month monging Savethemooses' brilliant article on Teletubbies. But now Tinkywinkyisgay is permanently banned by self-request so we reverted the article without a fuss. Well, now he's come back as user Falalalala. I'm sure beyond reasonable doubt that it's the same guy (their contributions and interests match perfectly, and their names both involve teletubbies), and I'm not sure what kind of rules regarding sockpuppetry apply here since the ban was self-requested, but now you at least know abut the situation. Knowledge is power. Carpe diem. Quid pro quo. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 00:55, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- All I can say in this case (other than: GNNNNAARRGGHH HIGHLY DYNAMIC IPs) is that they are on the same range. His IP changed between one account and the next, so there is no direct correlation, but if behaviour is the same for both then I would say that's enough. As to whether or not to ban after a self-requested block... I'd say ban whoever gave the self-requested block. They are so pointless! Either someone is going to use will-power, or they are going to come back anyway! But... outside of that my opinion (admin hat, not staff hat) is that it's better to just go by his actions now. And to laugh at him for being pathetic enough to sock to avoid a ban he asked for of course. -- sannse (talk) and sannse (talk) 12:28, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
Ghost template (insert organ music here)[edit source]
That's a bit bizarre - whenever I check my watchlist, I get a template which is under MediaWiki:Wlheader-showupdated. However, that template doesn't exist anymore - and I still see it. Ha? Wha? Who? Who we gonna call?!?!? ~ 16:06, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth
November 27th • Issue 26 • The newspaper it's tough to swat flies with
Uncyc shall go to the Ball! To whet the appetite, let's take a look at some of the cream of last year's competition:
Yup, standards are that high, or low, depending on your point of view, sense of humour, religion, shoe size and taste in hats. So jump to it! If you can make the judges laugh even as they vomit up their own entrails, you could be in with a chance of winning the glorious title "Aristocrat en Regalia", as well as the undying jealousy of the other entrants you so satisfyingly routed. Or you might lose. Asked for quotes, organiser RAHB quipped "I'll probably get on it sometime tonight, if not tomorrow", while official judging type Modusoperandi added "my memoires are riddled with mind expanding shit". {{username}} claims millionth victim "It was there, in front of me, an accusation that I was teh gheyz", the hapless victim told us exclusively. "Such hard-hitting slander had to be addressed, and addressed immediately, so I clicked the edit button, and launched into a passionate and vitriolic defence of my unquestionable heterosexuality post-haste!" Ironically, it was the length of this diatribe that finally revealed the subterfuge. "It took me some time to compose a suitable riposte, listing at length my many dalliances with members of the opposite sex, my subscription to Playboy and my utter distaste for the movie Brokeback Mountain - in fact it took so long that I was logged out from my account" said the sap. "So when I hit the preview button to behold my comeback in all its savage majesty, what should catch my eye but the <insert name here> message that betrays {{username}} abuse? I felt so embarrassed, the only logical course of action I could take was to sell my story to a newspaper with a global readership - you did say you'd pay me for this, right?" Shortly after this point, the interview was discontinued due to a disagreement between interviewer and interviewee. Asked for a final quote, we were told "fuck {{username}}, and fuck you too!" - a comment that speaks volumes about the suffering this terrible template is capable of inflicting on the unwary. {{username}} was unavailable for comment, and remains at large, ready to strike again. |

UnSignpost: 4th December 2008 (yea, we know it's late)[edit source]
Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth
December 4th • Issue 27 • Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth
Sycamore: How does he do it? An UnSignpost Special Investigation But who is this masked Celt? Well, since changing identity from MMACKNIGHT in March 2008, he's racked up an impressive 18,000 edits (or he will have by the time this paper is actually delivered - it's hanging at 17.940-odd at the time of typing). Many of these edits have been thanklessly categorising pages, voting for deletion, reverting and ban patrolling - the kind of soul-crushing work, in other words, that would sap the will to live of the average individual, but not our Syc. His efforts have not gone un-noticed. Indeed, he's been re-nommed for Uncuclopedian of the Month, even though he's already won the award. And despite the understandable reluctance of the non-existent cabal to swell their non-existent ranks, there is a small but significant groundswell of opinion gathering that this should be followed by the bestowing of a Banhammer on the cheery Caledonian. All of this is interesting, of course, and handily fills up column inches in this week's issue, but it doesn't answer the burning question: how does he do it? Once again spending no expense on uncovering the truth, your fearless UnSignpost has the answers, and they lie in his welcome message, and a gratuitous stereotype of his nationality. Yes, Jaffa Cakes and Irn Bru are the fuel of choice of this salutary Scot, and it would appear that the chemical reaction of these two volatile substances in his bloodstream creates an energy level easily the equivalent of at least a small-to-medium Hadron Collider. This is sufficient to cause in him a state not unequivalent to that Scientific Holy Grail, perpetual motion. So there you go kids: that's how he does it!Warning: Your safety-conscious UnSignpost would like to point out that Irn Bru is only known to have this beneficial effect on Scots. Those from less tartan countries would be advised to steer well clear - don't try this at home, kids! From the Cabal's desk |

And now I find out it's been locked so I can't get rid of that "animated sigs suck" thing. No doubt you did that to keep me from putting the dancing Kirby gif back or adding another gif.

I was unaware that there were 2 Georgian editions, but it seems that these wikis generally overlap speaking in terms of article content, and the wikia version seems to have slightly more articles, but the style of the wikia version is evidently from wikia. Whatever be the case, ka: and mo: should link to other language editions of Uncyclopedia, so please make it so. -Sockpuppet of an unregistered user 13:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Colin breaks #uncyclopedia
At approximately 7:01 EST, Colin "All your base" Heaney officially fucked everything up yet again. IRC was engaged in what started out as a naturally occurring, all-caps LOL train. However, being the little faggot that he is, Colin decided to join in, effectively making it not funny anymore. This reporter, being an expert witness in cases of dipshittery, quickly came to the conclusion that "Colin makes everything suck." However, Uncyclopedia's resident shitstain did not stop there. He proceeded to incite bizarre and violent urges within members of IRC, causing them to commit unspeakable acts. This reporter, under Colin's influence, killed both of his parents; deadpidgeon and MrN9000 both became homosexuals as a result. Colin himself was then found to have been responsible for every case of unpleasantness throughout history: the Holocaust, 9/11, and abortion. As other users unknowingly joined the channel-turned-warzone, they too fell victim to Colin's faggotry. Users were eventually transforming into furries and fucking each other with "furry Disney dicks" just before this reporter relocated to a safer distance. Needless to say, there is now sufficient evidence that everything stupid and gay and unfunny is, in fact, Colin's fault. Chicks, man. Hot Chicks. Just the words start your heart racing and your mumble mumble. Hot chicks have long failed to receive the ample, under-wire support they deserve here on Uncyc, and if it were not for one, soft-drink based, visionary noob, the femmes fatales of Uncyc would still be a saggy, wrinkly mess. Now all the babes, sexy ladies, foxy chicks, MILFs, and, yes, even magical anime girls, rest in the palm of your hand, throbbing with their new-found intellectual networking - WikiProject Hot Chicks. When asked how the aforementioned n00b came up with such a brilliant idea, he responded: "I don't know what UnSignpost is, my motivation for starting U[N]:WP Hot Chicks was because I thought it was rather humorous, I would like to be adopted, and in Soviet Russia, all your base are belong to YOU !!" (Doctapeppaman was promptly given a stern spanking for such irresponsible use of memes). The project has already succeeded in tagging several sexy talk-pages with the WikiProject Hot Chicks seal, thereby rating them on a random and baseless scale from A- to D-Cup, and the project will most likely be a success, considering the high ratio of users to perverts present on the site. Perhaps, one day, the project will achieve its primary goal - making every article without enough pictures of scantily-clad women into an article about cheesecake. |

Sorry if this screws up the cheer and all...[edit source]
But I was looking at the Alexa numbers, and the move to ".com" has had no noticeable positive effect on Wikia's numbers. It has had devastating effects on Uncyclopedia's, however, and appears to have caused us to lose not only many, MANY useful old members but caused new users to shun us, as well. Given such, do you think Wikia might consider a move back effective immediately? It seems like it would only help us, and hurt Wikia not at all.--<<>> 12:09, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Brad. Alexa doesn't really give the best figures, and is best read over the long-term. We tend to look more at comcast figures, which are showing that unique visitors are increasing (I don't have full recent figures, the latest I have are at http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Comscore_Oct_2008.png - that jump at the end includes the addition of Uncyc on the 10th Oct). http://www.quantcast.com/wikia.com/traffic/sites is also useful. I don't want this to kick off another discussion about whether it's useful for Uncyclopedia to be included in these figures when there are no ads on this wiki, but it's certainly useful from our perspective to be able to see these improved numbers.
- But that said, we are still waiting for the Uncyc representatives to contact us, and willing to listen to their suggestions and see what can be done to help. We really do want the relationship between Uncyclopedia and Wikia to work -- sannse (talk) 20:00, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

SPAM Filter[edit source]
Sannse, as you're all good at representin' us to wikia and all, I was hoping to bug you about something. The SPAM Filter that we have in place filters out edits containing "http://encyclopediadramatica.com" and that can be a bit of a nuisance at times. Specifically, there are times when I would like to leave a message on a user talk page, suggestion that, perhaps, ED would be better suited to their style and it would be nice to leave a link for them. I am wondering, therefore, if it would be possible to remove that particular bit from the SPAM filter, perhaps even just for talk pages. --Sir gwax (talk) 22:05, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
- That's no problem, it just has to be added to MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist, which is a local over-ride for the global blacklist. But I thought we (Uncyclopedia) decided not to link to ED a while ago? Frankly, I'd rather we didn't... having ended up on a page of diseased penises in the course of some vandal investigating a little while back -- sannse (talk) 17:52, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Reading This Is The Mysterious Second Step To Getting Profit From Stealing Childrens' Underwear!
January 1st, 2009 • Issue 29 • The first newspaper to wish you a Happy Christmas 2009!
The UnSignpost starts 2009 as it ended 2008: Late Several readers were probably available for comment, but we didn't ask them anything and blatantly made one up: "it wouldn't be the UnSignpost if it arrived on time", Orian57 might have said, if we'd asked him. The Patronising New Year EditorialTM From this we can infer that Andy Dufresne in The Shawshank Redemption didn't have a clue what he was on about - hope is a ridiculous thing, and should be crushed as soon as possible. However, there is still the possibility, however remote, that something good might happen. Active users might start writing more good articles again. VFH might start to flow like it used to. Old users may return, invigorated, to bestow upon us fresh fruits of their imaginations. New users may arrive to take up the baton, and stride boldly forward, blessing us with a wealth of new articles that inject fresh purpose and impetus to the site. Don't look like that - it might happen. Well, monkeys might also fly out of your butt. Depends if teleportation technology ever becomes viable, widely available, and small enough to secure in such a narrow location. Face it, we haven't a clue what this year holds for us yet, folks, all we can do is try and make it the best we can by writing more articles, and helping new users out, and see where we go from there. This is your UnSignpost, patronising the fuck out of you. Happy New Year! Kevin Rudd says Uncyclopedia is the worst |

Uncyclopedians on Xbox Live
Recently, The following is an actual transcript between me (under the alias "Pope Gustav") and Orian57 (under the alias "Orian57") on Xbox Live.
This is stunning evidence that Orian57, along with others, is leaving the site for the glamorous life of Xbox Live. When confronted with this transcript and these accusations, Orian replied that "I was just on Uncyclopedia today. I was just bored and wanted something else to do." Oddly enough, all of the other Uncyclopedians that have Xbox Live accounts that I spoke to also claimed to have "lives" outside of Uncyclopedia, lives that mainly consist of playing Halo 3. Article gets +21 votes on VFH
Only a few days after going back to featuring "Today's Featured Article" for only one day, instead of the previous two, the article, The defense rests, your honor received 21 "for" votes and no "against" after a mere 3 days on VFH. The article, nominated on VFH by SysRq, and written by noted admin Modusoperandi, is the first article surpass +20 votes in a long while on VFH. Upon hearing of his accomplishment, Modus is heard to have said, "I'd like to thank all of the little people that I crushed to get where I am," and, "Can I wear my Kernel Popcorn costume?" SysRq, the article nominator is quoted as saying, "I was the one who nommed that article; I deserve some recognition." For those of you are new around here, VFH is the process by which uncyclopedia nominates articles for "Today's Featured Article", the article in the top left corner on the mainpage. All users of uncyclopedia, including anonymous ip users are encouraged to vote on VFH and nominate articles on VFH. VFH can be found here, but typing in VFH in the search box, by clicking the "Votes for Highlight" link under the community links on the right (it's second from the bottom between "Pee Review" and "Votes for Pictures"), and Uncyclopedia:VFH, in addition to several other redirects. Many users have expressed approval of this accomplishment, as the more votes an article gets, the better an article is. Therefore, by voting on an article, one injects more quality into an article, in the same way that manufacturers "inspect" quality back into a finished part. Additionally, the admins will not longer be forced to torture various cute animals to inspire users to vote in VFH: provided VFH doesn't stall out again. |

Your #1 source for Cajek ban jokes!
January 15, 2009 • Issue 31 • Making the New York Times look like Mad Magazine (or is that the other way round?)
From The Desk of the Cabal: Incest and sex change are now bannable offenses Following the sex change operations of citizen (now citizeness) Yettie, and several suspicious sexual activities in the Uncyclopedia compound, the Cabal hereby decrees the following:
Thank you citizens, this message was not delivered by the Cabal which does not exist. Behave nice, vote on VFH and obey the Cabal. The Cabal is your friend. Or it would be. If it existed. Pee Revuu? UU himself dismissed such fears, pointing out that he's got nothing better to do with his time than arbitrarily judge the quality of other people's opinions anyway, and adding "I'm relieved to be taking up this position as it will drastically reduce the number of reviews I'm expected to do. Also, I'm thinking of introducing a policy of stripping Orian57, and only him, of his RotM award, his rank, his mittens and his right to drink hot chocolate ever again unless he does a bloody review some time soon". However, some users are still not convinced this is a good idea, or even possible. One, speaking on condition of anonymity, said, "I seriously doubt that UU can do Boomer's job and his own at the same time. I mean, how can he be accused of being a lazy arse if he has almost twice as many good pee reviews as anyone else and does 75% of the pee review maintenance tasks? This ruins the running pee review committee in-joke about Captain Catheter not doing anything. There is no way this can work." |

Image:Do a jailbait.jpg Determined to be a Shemale To the relief of Uncyclopedians everywhere, notorious image "Do a jailbait" has been scientifically proven not be a girl. Originally, many suspected that the disturbing and disturbingly attractive image was that of young girl: age estimates ranging from jail bait age down to "pedo-bear approves" age.

The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
January 22 + 7, 2009 • Issue 32 • Th-the m-m-most con-confident new-Newspaper in a wh-while
Zionists consolidate wiki power Yeah the st-story is, erm, about Mr Mor-Mordillo’s erm asce-ascent—rise to new power. He was, eh, pr-promoted to erm, Be-Beu- Bureaucrat? Which, erm, me-means he can- can now do- do th-things he cou-couldn’t d-d-do b-before; Kind-kind of like m-my pro-pro-promotion. Heh-heh, th-that was a j-jo-joke. S-some Un-Uncyclope-Uncyclopedians th-think this p-p-proves s-s-s-something abou-about so-some s-sort of J-Je-Jewish, erm, conspiracy. Or-or something, I-I’m n-not really sh-sh-sure why that was meant to be funny. Pro-pro-probably was-was-wasn’t. So-sorry. Th-the decision ca-came about b-b-because of th-the fuh-fuh-forum voting process in-in-initiated b-by Under—Under user wh-who was u-u-upset tha-that Bureaucrat C-C-Codeine had decided to leave. After s-some ti-time voting it-it was d-d-decided that Mordillo w-w-would become a Bureaucrat and that C-C-C-Codeine wasn’t leaving a-a-after all! Which was g-g-good. M-M-Mordillo di-didn’t ma-make a c-c-comment s-so I-I’ve b-been told t-to make one u-up. Erm, “Ha ha ha! N-Now you-you’re all un-under my thumb!” Or something, that that wasn’t really f-funny ei-either. Sorry, M-Mordillo, it-it’s not my W-words! Image:Do a jailbait.jpg Determined to be a Shemale To the relief of Uncyclopedians everywhere, notorious image "Do a jailbait" has been scientifically proven not be a girl. Originally, many suspected that the disturbing and disturbingly attractive image was that of young girl: age estimates ranging from jail bait age down to "pedo-bear approves" age. However, due to much "research" on the internet regarding the appearance shemales who are just over the age of consent, it has been determined that said image was in fact a young shemale. Researchers said the hairy arms and the huge penis of the lady in question proved without reasonable doubt that the image can not be that of a girl. Many in the Uncyclopedia community were relived by the news.

We're delivering it to your door anyways!
February 5, 2009 • Issue 33 • It's Journalism Jim, but not as we know it.
The ‘of the Year’ run down of the year!
So after a long neurotic month of blatant prostitution, secret e-mail canvassing, bribery and coercion in deciding who should win the various ‘of the Year’ awards (plus a completely normal five days of knowing who did) the results are in! UotY: Mordillo! Nominated (but not voted for) by UU with the reason “[he does] the big bad wolf stuff to keep fuckwits at bay.”. 21 Jew jokes later (“Jew that controls the internet”, “I feel I have to vote for him” and “I love this man. To the point that his girlfriend is seriously distraught by it”) Mordillo was the landslide victor a whole 12 votes ahead of the runner up, UU! And he deserved it too (though to be frank I deserved it more)! Our WotY was Modusoperandi! Narrowly beating Mhaille by 2 votes he was nominated by UU with the reasoning “…Tends to brighten my day whenever I see him, although that could be the light reflecting off his gleaming naked body.” Another 19 Canadian jokes ( “this silly Canadian”, “I never would have thought that casting a vote would be so painful as this” and “Modus is like maple syrup. On the outside he's all golden, sweet and sticky. On the inside however, he's all golden, sweet and sticky”) won him the award! (though to be frank I would have appreciated it more!) Next up was our winner of PotY, Prettiestpretty! She was nominated (but not voted for) by Mhaille because she is the “producer of some very impressive work” and has won the PotM twice! 18 girl jokes later (“such a foregone conclusion”, “She's earned this and then some” and “Unlike most people here, I'm actually going to give a reason for voting for PP. I'm even going to write two sentences explaining the reason.”) she deservedly won the award which she herself designed. (I don’t even know how to use MS paint but I’d still like to have been acknowledged). There was also an impromptu N00b of the Year award created that Rcmurphy ran off with. He was nominated by Spang with the reason “He really deserves it this time” and received 12 N00b jks (“How can you be a year old and still be a noob without being rcmurphy”, “He's still confused too” and “[Hyperbole is] regularly here and dangerously competent. Rc remains the quintessential n00b”). (*grumble* I started lurking in 2007…) Lastly and leastly there was the UGotY which was awarded to Wikia. Nominated by Mhaille with the reason “Wikia continue to raise the bar on defining what it means to be a Useless Gobshite”. He/she/it got 5 jokes that I don’t properly understand (“As much as I'd like to see Yettie take this, Wikia is both more useless and far more of a gobshite”, “it's rare to see such dedication to gobshitery” and “Outstanding contributions to fail.”). (Ok so I’m not bitter about loosing this.) |

Worrying influx of n00bs a threat to Uncyc's "worst" status
Worse still, many of these new arrivals show early signs of being dangerously competent: writing funny articles; giving in-depth pee reviews; voting on stuff; helping folks out - generally making the kind of contributions that could, if the community is not careful, lead to the site losing its coveted "worst" status. Experienced editors queued up to condemn the invasion - "Very happy to see the influx in good new editors coming in, we've been devoid of that extra boost for far too long it seems" said RAHB, the bile seething from his every pore, while MrN spoke scathingly about "great additions to Uncyc". But is it too late? With competition for the NOTM award at its most fierce for months (4 noms and none of them Rcmurphy at the last count), it looks like it may be too late to reject this transfusion of new blood. Is there any hope for the long-term future of the proud traditions of the wiki under this relentless onslaught of new talent? A comment on Bullshit from MrN
I think that speaks for itself. Got it? So basically, we want more bullshit, some horse shit, and a liberal helping of complete bollocks. But NO CRAP. Unless it's crap which adds to the general stench of the article in question (assuming that stinking is what we want). Got it now? Well, look at it this way... There was a man who had three wives. No, that was Moses. Oh, so Moses comes down from Mount Sinai and says: "Well, lads. I got him down to ten, but adultery is still in." No wait. Sorry, that was complete bollocks. I'm drifting into the realms of pointless excrement, and what does this have to do with anything? Don't tell them that! So what was it I was talking about again? Oh, yea... Does anyone know where I left my slippers? |

Th-the m-m-most con-confident new-Newspaper in a wh-while
February 19, 2009 • Issue 35 • Sifting the flour of news into the soufflé of your talk page
Uncyclopedia shuns ads in favor of product placement Uncyclopedia admins today announced that there would most definitely never be advertisements placed in the hallowed halls of yon humor wiki. However, it seems in order to rake in the cash that would have resulted from these ads, similar to raking in the flavor from KFC's new Turkey-Flavored ChickenTM, we will instead be treated to subtle product placement in every facet of Uncyclopedia. The driving force behind this decision is undoubtedly greed. The driving force behind the new Ford ExplorerTM is Jack Bauer. Catch 24 this Sunday on FOX! Jack Bauer drives a Ford! When asked for Uncyclopedia's official political stance on the matter, sysop TheLedBalloon said, "You can't fool me Jimmy Carter! I voted for Gerald Ford in the last election and I'm DAMN PROUD OF IT! You can't intimidate me with your 'pretending to be the newspaper reporter but actually being Jimmy Carter in disguise who will then detain me for several months of waterboarding hell' routine--fool me once, shame on you; fool my twice, shame on me...", which only added more fuel to the fire of speculation surrounding this occurence. For the best value fuel, visit Egan's SunocoTM. The mood in the Uncyclopedia break room was sombre today. Several users expressed their concern about not having ads placed on the wiki. "What? No ads? But how will we make money?" asked Sockpuppet of an unregistered user. It seems the secret of product placement has been kept under wraps by the non-existant Cabal. For the best quality cling-wrap, choose Crestfield Wax PaperTM. When asked for the reason behind the secrecy, TheLedBalloon further elaborated on his earlier statement, saying, "FORD WAS RIGHT TO PARDON NIXON, DAMMIT! So take your goddamn liberal hippy goddamn elitist goddamn tax-raisings somewhere else!" Readers are reminded that Williams BrandTM is the preferred brand of hippy elitist tax-raisings by a 2-to-1 margin. Please stay tuned to the UnSignpost for further updates on the ad situation, the product placement situation, and how really, really terrible all of our articles are going to look with trademark tags mucking up the line spacing.

Erk, something's been wrongified[edit source]
Howdy Sannse, it would appear a change has happened which has brokened stuff. Specifically, I'm told it looks like Wikia have "updated the inputbox extension to one that doesn't support the prefix= parameter for "create" type inputboxes". This is causing a problem with the boxes that help folks create new VFH, VFP and Pee Review pages - it takes them through to edit the page they're trying to nominate instead, which is no good to anyone. Thoughts, suggestions or solutions welcome! --UU - natter 14:26, Feb 24
- Hi, apparently prefix= was (and I quote) "an ugly hack" which got removed in the latest version of the code. So our guys have added what is probably an equally ugly hack to add it back in. The new code should go live tomorrow. -- sannse (talk) 20:41, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Imperial Coloni(s|z)ation For Glorification of Motherwiki Imperial Colonization made yet another triumphant return this week, after several months of languishing, inactivity, and Richard Nixon. Upon a general query from an annoying masked UnSignpost writer, another anonymous user stepped up and took control. That anonymous user is SysRq. Forums were created, ideas were exchanged, and the Cajek search party was sent out again. Only the last one was in vain, as an all-new Colonisation page was rolled out last week. Uncyclopedians wasted no time in signing up and nominating their first target: the utter garbage pile that was Al Gore. Previously containing banal tripe such as Manbearpig references, internet invention claims, lockbox bollocks, and other assorted drivel, the article is now, according to an official Colonization spokesman, "well on its way to not sucking." Future Colonisations have been lined up as well, leading this reporter to believe that this time around, Colonization is here to stay, even moreso that Manforman or the Poison Pee template. It looks as if the article on Jews is next on the Colonisation docket, since all articles relating to that topic are "utter bilge, consumed with hateful pointlessness and also secretly controlled by Jews." British Infiltration of Non-Existent Cabal Continues at VFS
The early opping was due to two factors, firstly, an unprecedented landslide, with two candidates polling so many votes that the final round was rendered an irrelevance, and secondly, new 'crat Mordillo being impatient to use his whizzy new powers to op the new admins before Codeine or Mhaille beat him to it. The most votes were polled by MrN9000, and your USP can't think of a more deserving recipient of a shiny new banstick. He's already thrown himself into his new role with gusto, banning, deleting, featuring and the like with gusto, and proudly declaring "I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing", thus showing he has as much grasp of the role already as any other admin. The numbers were made up by fellow limey Under user, who has been keen to get started using his whizzy new powers, but has been limited to mainly joke bans so far by MrN's astounding competence and annoying habit of doing all the work. UU was unavailable for comment (which is odd, seeing as he's writing this), but his wife had this to say: "you bastards! Do you have any idea what you've done? I'll be lucky to see him for more than about half an hour a week now!" She wasn't joking. |

- Hi Sannse, is this a new thing? In the past an admin OKing it was enough? Thanks ~
17:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- What do you mean by "community agreement", is that like a cabal consensus. I know MrN9000 (who is now an admin) is in favor of me having a bot (he suggested it), and I assume Mordillo is too, and Dr Skullthumper suggested that get AWB powers (which I have). I don't know of any admin off hand who would be opposed to me having a bot. --Mnb'z 19:51, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
- Mordillo, it varies per community... and it's been a while since I've been asked here. Looking back a bit, it looks like I did MrN9000's on Codeine's say so, so I guess admin aproval is it around here. I'll set, and let people shout at me later if it's not OK -- sannse (talk) 16:23, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

New parser causes havoc by requiring Uncyclopedians to get things right
Resident tame Wikia staffer Sannse tried to explain: "bad HTML is the most likely cause of errors. But there are some other changes that might cause errors. For example, the way that some complex parser tags work has changed. The best thing to do is to look for HTML problems first (not forgetting that the errors are often in templates used on the page). Then, if you can't find it, hassle anyone you know who knows HTML and wikimarkup better than you (nah, not going to link some poor guy). Then, if you can't find it, hassle me to find help (Uberfuzzy is on standby to assist where needed). Again I'd suggest that the template author should be the person who knows how to make it work!" Most Uncyclopedians had already gone cross-eyed by this point, but she gamely continued: "Don't forget that you can use Special:ParserDiffTest as a help in finding exactly what's different on a page. A lot of the changes don't mean anything. For example, on this page the only differences are to class and section titles. But this one shows problems with center and div tags (the last two green sections on the div)". Your USP offers the following, less confusing advice: if you open any kind of tag in html like <this>, you have to close it again, like </this> before the end of your page. And if you open more then one tag, be sure to close them in the right order <like><this></this></like>. Then shit should not get fucked up. The gnomes were unavailable for comment.

The Newspaper 4 out of 5 Dentists Agree On!
March 10th, 2009 • Issue 38 • Mucking up your talk page, one issue at a time
CONSPIRACY!!! WE ARE DOOMED! Head for the hills, Uncyclopedia users, there's nothing that can save us now! As of this morning, we NO LONGER EXIST!!! Now, if you are reading this, you may be thinking to yourself, "why, that Gerry fellow is quite mad. Since I am reading the UnSignpost now, then both I and Uncyclopedia must still exist." To this i say to you: THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO THINK. Furthermore, it is also WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO THINK THEY THINK YOU THINK. Reactions were mixed today at the wiki. Some theorized that uncyclopedia.wikia.com was, in fact, sinking. In response to this, the women (all 3 of them) and children were loaded onto lifeboats and fired out of the lifeboat-cannon, in hopes that they would land far away enough from the landlocked Uncyc as to find a body of water. Other preparations included the Cajek string quartet playing rousing versions of traditional ship-sinking music. While it might seem rash for an official non-cabal-run periodical to endorse panic, the UnSignpost urges all Uncyclopedia users to abandon all reason and logic in an attempt to save themselves. The best course of action is most likely the one that involves the maximum amount of screaming, arm-flailing, and general insanity. The Uncyclopedia Store is likely to be looted quickly, so be sure to stop by early to maximize you chances at getting the best stuff. Count to a Million: Update Uncyclopedians have continued their brave foray into the dangerous world of numbers, today reaching the long-awaited benchmark of 3,239. The constitutes nearly 1/300th of the total goal, meaning we are 0.32% of the way there! Users were overjoyed, confused, and generally apathetic about the achievement. Since its inception on February 20th, 2008, many different counters, or 'c-ters' as they refer to themselves, have contributed to the project. The content of the countup has varied greatly, from battleships to cartoon characters to road signs, and yet never deviating very far away from pornography. At any rate, it seems Uncyclopedia admin and Chair of the Committee to Investigate and Eliminate Needless Committees Spang's experiment to destroy the internet has not succeeded...yet. The project has advanced at a rate of 8.39 numbers per day, a respectable clip considering the enormous effort involved in adding the next number in the sequence. At this brisk clip, the project will reach completion at 18:45 UT on June 24, 2334. Until that day, Uncyclopedians can only hope, dream, and continue in the increasingly difficult task of adding one to a moderately large number. |

The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
March 19th, 2009 • Issue 39 • Committed to both Bringing You The News and The Happywood Insane Asylum
Forum topic created; Modusoperandi posts witty response At a certain point this week, a relatively green uncyclopedian posed a rather ill-advised question on one of the Forums quaintly known to patrons of this silly wiki as the 'Village Dump'. A few seconds after the aforementioned certain point this week, resident cheek-tonguer Modusoperandi responded by intentionally misinterpreting the meaning of the question, twisting the querist's words, taking advantage of some sort of delicious pun, or otherwise causing mischief in the usually serious, informative Forum. Reactions were, as usual, mixed in the community. Several anonymous users were outraged at the lack of tact and formality displayed by the wily Modus. "Uncyclopedia is serious business," said one pitchfork-wielding mob participant. "We would descend into total anarchy if it weren't for the court system, the press, the boron smelting plant, and the sanctity of our information distribution system." Other users seemed to support the flashing of rapier wit, claiming "if we can't laugh a little, then what's the point? Without humor, we'd end up in hell like all those poor souls who lived before Jesus invented comedy in 23 A.D." Modusoperandi himself declined to comment on the situation, only offering this brief reply to a query seeking a comment: "She told me that she was eighteen. She also told me that she human and was not, in fact, a bonobo. If you have any other questions, please direct them to my law firm; Alan, Whitcomb, Silverstein & Bonobo." It seems the elusive Mr. Operandi is free to continue in his forum havoc-wreaking, as nobody has stepped up to officially denounce his actions. All bonobos involved were unavailable for comment.
This week the Uncyclopedia community was outraged to learn that the UnSignpost, which recently received a Wikia bailout, will be giving hefty bonuses to the very dunderheads responsible for driving the periodical into the ground in the first place. The extremely active Uncyclopedia Senate has vowed that action will be taken against the editors set to receive the lucrative bonuses. It may be possible that they will be blocked from editing or even exiled to another wiki. Uncyclopedians were, for the most part, outraged. Popular user Mnbvcxz had an unrelated statement quote-mined by an UnSignpost journalist to produce the following comment:"I[...]is[...]finished," a possible indication that he will leave the site in protest of the bonuses. The founders of the newspaper refused comment, as they want nothing to do with it anymore, and true to that mission this reporter was chased off the the grounds of the Cajek mansion by bunnies wearing bee costumes. The current editors were hounded, with Under user having this to say: "I don't think there have been any "comically large" bonuses paid out. There have simply been adequate contractual remunerations allocated to key staff to reward their loyalty and unstinting efforts. Every penny of these almost insignificant amounts is richly deserved. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to buy a large yacht and fill a swimming pool with cash to float it on." Gerrycheevers was absolutely unavailable at press time.

Can you to a checkuser[edit source]
Could you confirm that: 86.130.136.239 (Talk • Contribs (del) • Block (rem-lst-all) • Whois • City • Proxy? • WP Edits • Checkuser) is Narcissus Black (talk) – contribs (new • del) • edit-count • block (rem • list) • all logs • groups • checkuser.

- yeah, I'm being good and trying to remember that Sycamore isn't an admin.
- I can't give a strong positive in this case, although it looks from past results as though this is the same ISP as Narcissus Black. But then it is one of the biggest ISPs in England, so that's not a certainty. Sorry -- sannse (talk) 11:20, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
March 26th, 2009 • Issue 40• Spooning the Soggy Vegetables of Truth from the Luke-warm Soup of the News
MrN's banstick stuck in "on" position
Popular admin, underwear enthusiast and raconteur MrN9000 has gone on a ban-rampage unprecedented in the recent history of the wiki. Seemingly keen to win his first bastard admin award, the conscientious custodian has already banned more people this month than all the other admins combined. The other admins rallied bravely, with even Spang being seen to ban someone (only his third of the year) as they tried to show they were not now completely surplus to requirements. However, even as this story was typed, MrN banned another 3 vandals, rendering their efforts ultimately futile. Speculation that he is trying to ban more people on an individual basis than Hinoa managed in one go when he banned the whole of Italy cannot be confirmed or denied at the time of going to press. When asked about his phenomenal spree, MrN said "What do all these buttons with "Ban" written on them do? I keep pushing them, but nothing appears to happen". Banning legend Mordillo, when asked for a comment on MrN's ban excesses, said "I believe the man is a menace, and danger to society. I believe he should be castrated, quartered, hanged, torched and his ashes should be scattered over France. I believe he should burn in hell for all eternity. What? Do I feel pity about all those who he banned? Fuck no, I didn't have anyone to ban because of the bastard!" Uncyclopedia now famous In a totally unexpected development, Uncyclopedia has officially earned the worldwide recognition it has longed for since its inception. On the website digg.com, all internet content is sorted and ranked by coolness, similar to the process found in many middle schools. It seems Uncyc's page on spam has reached sufficient 'cool' status as to cause the rest of the site to become invited to the "cool kid's lunch table", along with theonion.com and cracked.com. Reactions were unusually mixed today in the Uncyclopedia break room. When asked what it's like to suddenly be cool, Optimuschris said, "shit, I'll let you know when I find out." Another user, DrStrange, was asked for a comment, and promptly responded "comment duly delivered!" Clearly, popularity has already gone to Uncyclopedians' heads, as such chippy responses are rarely seen. Uncyclopedians have become too cool for school. When asked for comment regarding adding a sentence to the end of this article to extend its length and make this week's UnSignpost look pretty, Gerrycheevers said, "bugger off." |

UnSignpost 2nd April 09[edit source]
Because if the rumors don't spread at the salon, we must spread them in the news.
April 5th, 2009 • Issue 41 • In the fashion of Illogicopedia, the only Newspaper that will deliberate a spork!
EVIL WIKIA DICTATORS SHUT DOWN UNCYCLOPEDIA Due to high operational costs and "the community being a bunch of gits", the nefarious Uncyclopedia overlords at Wikia shut down the comedy wiki yesterday. This resulted in much confusion, outrage, and blundering about in the dark. When asked to comment about the situation, Orian57 said, "No, because you'll actually put what I say into the paper, and last time you made me look really stupid. Although it is a tad inconvenient. And what do you mean 'Cabal'?" It should be noted that Orian is both exceedingly intelligent and unbearably attractive, and there most certainly is not a cabal of any kind. Other users seemed to have been expecting this for some time. Necropaxx had this to say: "Honestly, I'm surprised it took this long for Wikia to do this. We Uncyclopedians have been total jerks for far too long. I suggest we all go to Wikia and give Jimbo Wales a nice big "We're sorry" and hope he's feeling generous." This editor took this advice to mean that we should vandalize Wikipedia furiously, and redirected their page on Karma to Coincidence. At press time, Uncyclopedia still did not exist, and many in the community expressed doubt that the Wikia Council would ever reinstate the site. With the recent drama over the domain change, and the promise of ads descending swiftly into every corner and crevasse of our wiki, we seem to be simply too much trouble to be bothered with. This reporter considers it to be good while it lasted, and offeres up a toast to the good old days of Uncyclopedia. Image of Dog Holding Paper, not used in UnSignpost for over Nine Months, Makes Glorious Return to UnSignpost This reporter is proud to say that, after being absent from the UnSignpost for over nine months, our lovable mascot "DogNewspaper" has returned to grace this periodical once again. DogNewspaper made his debut in the second issue of the UnSignpost, which covered such stories as 'UnSignpost created' and 'Uncyclopedia is the worst'. After bringing you the second story in issues 2 through 5, DogNewspaper was promoted to "top dog", and accompanied the lead story for four issues in June 2008. DogNewspaper took an extended hiatus after Issue 9 to "see the world" and, more urgently, "sniff the world". After many exciting adventures, our mascot is back to stay, and will likely be used many more times in the coming months in what editor Gerrycheevers referred to as "blatant space-filler. DogNewspaper can take a story and squish it to the left side of the page, extending its length. Now get off my lawn!" DogNewspaper declined to comment, but did wag his tail enthusiastically before rolling over in an effort to have his belly scratched. |

Hope you have recovered from the curry by now...[edit source]
Would it be possible to confirm if Mr Alex (talk) – contribs (new • del) • edit-count • block (rem • list) • all logs • groups • checkuser has anything to do with 209.206.135.17 (Talk • Contribs (del) • Block (rem-lst-all) • Whois • City • Proxy? • WP Edits • Checkuser)? I think this user regularly uses IPs to do Cyber-bullying. The IP is probably an open proxy I guess... If you could point me to any other IPs this user has been using that would also be useful. Actually I'm so convinced it's the same guy I'm happy to ban now, but I guess I should check with yourself first. Thanks in advance. MrN 00:00, Apr 3
- Oh, I'm guessing 209.206.135.36 (Talk • Contribs (del) • Block (rem-lst-all) • Whois • City • Proxy? • WP Edits • Checkuser) is the same user? MrN
00:59, Apr 3
- Sorry, I don't see any matches here. Mr Alex only has one IP, and that doesn't match the other two. The two anons don't appear to be open proxies either, and aren't in the same area as Mr Alex's IP. That doesn't mean there is no possibility of it being the same guy, but there is nothing on checkuser that suggests it -- sannse (talk) 08:36, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Your #1 source for Cajek ban jokes!
April 9th, 2009 • Issue 42• We Give the In-jokes Recycling Center 90% of Their Business!
Cabalists Decide Cabal Membership At Adequate Amount, Deny Existence of Cabal Uncyclopedia administrators this week decried the lack of need for new recruits, as they are wholly confident in their ability to secretly control the wiki from behind a moth-eaten curtain. On the voting page, which this reporter will probably be banned for pointing out to the common folk, the current cabal members expressed their desire to see more normal non-admins, or 'normies', be involved with the recent changes page. However, the option for another member being inducted into the cabal was declined, as things like the ban patrol and the Cajek Alert System seem to be running just fine, thank you very much. Cabalists were adamant about their opinions. RAHB had the following to say: "I cannot confirm the non-existence of the non-existent cabal, being that it does not exist, and I'm no Harry Potter-reading fantasy boy. I can however confirm the existence of puppies. THEY'RE ADORABLE!" The non-existence of the cabal was further emphasized by Mordillo who declined comment when approached as he was leaving the Secret Cabal Headquarters & Tiki Lounge. Experts were skeptical of the existence of the cabal, but point out that nothing should be ruled out. "Woof," said UnSignpost political correspondent DogNewspaper (pictured), citing the low level of vandalism and general dickery since the recent opping of Under user and MrN9000, who have become known to Uncyclopedians as "The Redcoats". Co-Creator of UnSignpost Introduces New Creation Dr. Skullthumper, co-founder of the very newspaper you are reading right now, has unrolled his newest creation, the NetBar. UnSignpost editors were too busy and ridden with jealousy to investigate the nature of this new invention, but our technology correspondant DogNewspaper (pictured) was willing to speculate on the new gadget. "Bark bark," he proclaimed, elaborating that this new thing is most likely some sort of candy bar or online tavern. This is not the first time the good doctor has abandoned the UnSignpost to work on other equally trivial projects. Fnoodle, disguised as a harmless spellcheck wiki-bot, is actually a perfect one-eight replica of Skull. This entity has nearly 20,000 edits, mostly vandalisms of pages in Thekillerfroggy's userspace. However, Fnoodle has sat abandoned in the doctor's sandbox since last October, since all of said doctor's time recently has been poured into his new project, the NetBar. Uncyclopedians had mixed reactions today. Sockpuppet of an unregistered user had this to say: "What the fuck is a NetBar?" A gathering in the Uncyclopedia break room formed, with users misguidedly attempting to ward off squirrels with the NetBar. When reached for comment, Dr. Skullthumper said, "What's an UnSignpost?" |

That photo on the Heath Ledger page[edit source]
So, our upset IP vandal had a case with the skateboarding joker picture I see. I've been particularly fascinated with this little side drama, is there any way to get a little info on why someone soiled themselves over this mundane photo?--
15:17, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
- I was just about to ask you about this photo. Did you get an email about this? Because other than that little vandal I didn't see any formal request to remove the picture. Also, I believe all pictures are protected under the fair use? Also also, this is a manipulated version of the original (apparently) copyrighted picture? Thanks. ~
15:19, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hey, yes, we got an email to Wikia about it. Fair use is complicated, and doesn't allow the use of any image. The part of the image that was related to the parody (the Joker) could be regarded as fair use. But the image wasn't parodying the skateboard, so the case for that is less clear. Manipulation of an image does not negate the copyright on the image (IANAL etc etc)
- So with an apparently legitimate complaint in hand, I (with my staff hat on) had a word with an Uncyc admin (umm.. me... other hat) and felt it wasn't worth arguing over. Of course, usually I try to keep my roles separate, and so I was being a bit naughty here... so I'll tell you what, I'll 'shop an alternative this evening. -- sannse (talk) and sannse (talk) 18:12, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
April 16th, 2009 • Issue 43 • It's News Because We Tell You It Is
Latest Poo Lit Leads to Quality Flood on VFH
The first article nominated to VFH from the competition also came with a bold prediction by one numbskull, who questioned his existence if Karl Lagerfeld did not receive 20 One of our winners was not only a perfect 1/1 by winning the best rewrite category with Money but Sycamore also received the vaunted Writer of the Month trophy for March 2009! A user that happens to wander in and write us an offering on occasion claimed a share of first place in the alternative namespace category with the UnNews article Obama unveils education reform plans. Monika should drop in more often! Worst 100 of the Year Stumbles to 10 Things
There are several schools of thought as to why this situation has been allowed to arise. One gaining currency among quite literally possibly some Uncyclopedians is that everyone on the site is so busy producing quality material that they just don't have time to devote to such frivolities. However, the continued existence and rate of progress of Forum:Count to a million neatly quashes that theory. Another hypothesis advanced by as many as no or fewer people is that precisely nothing of any interest to anyone has happened, either on this wiki or on the interwebs in general this year. However, while this is significantly more likely than the first theory, the generally accepted explanation seems to be that, quite simply and predictably, Uncyclopedia is the worst. |

UnSignpost 23rd April 09[edit source]
May contain traces of humor!
April 23rd, 2009 • Issue 44 • Spamming Your Talkpage Since 2008
Conservation Week Largely Ignored By UnCommunity Uncyclopedia is currently halfway through its bi-annual (semi-annual?) rewriting extravaganza, lovingly referred to as Conservation Week. Every six months, members of this silly wiki partake in the practice of pruning, hacking, nurturing, feeding, and otherwise bothering the 'trees' of the site, which is the running metaphor for 'article'. From the greatest feature machine to the lowliest n00b, everyone can participate in Conservation Week by simply finding a sub-par article and making it better via trimming or adding content, or just plain magic. However, our special investigator DogNewspaper (pictured) has discovered that this so-called Rewrite-a-Thon is not the all-encompassing entity it is meant to be. In fact, normal operations such as VFD, VFH, and the Cajek Ban Joke Factory have not ground to a halt as they clearly should during this special fortnight. Users were puzzled by this revelation; RabbiTechno admitted that he has "little idea what 99.9% of the whole site is all about," and he elaborated that without his constant vigilance, UnNews would surely deteriorate into a third-rate media parody, which this reporter can verify is true. Known conservation standouts have also shockingly participated in non-rewrite-related activities during the designated tree-hugging week. Dexter111344, reigning Greasy Mechanic, blamed the inclement weather, nosy librarians, and the almighty Zeus. Or maybe he just rewrote Zeus, but the librarian part was true for sure. UnSignpost Reporter Subtly Mentions Vigilance Week In Article; Chaos Ensues In the April 23rd, 2009 edition of the UnSignpost, masked co-chief-editor Gerrycheevers covertly linked the word 'vigilance' to Uncyclopedia's Vigilance Week page, inciting riots and mass panic among Uncyclopedians site-wide. Vigilance Week, the mere mention of which often inspires multiple forums where users argue and complain in bold or even italic font, is a period where the rules of article deletion are relaxed, and the worst articles on Uncyclopedia are loaded into the basement of the British Houses of Parliament and blown up using comical amounts of gunpowder. The last Vigilance Week reportedly occured in September/October 2007, resulting in the death of borderline humorous articles by the dozens. The horrific memories of that week have greatly affected some Uncyclopedians, who remain extremely charged about the issue to this day. For example, Modusoperandi recalled his experience when asked to comment on Vigilance Week, saying, "Certainly. What's "Vigilance Week"?" Other users were similarly shocked, as V-Week, as it has come to be known, was described as "unmemorable" by one user, and "get off my lawn" by another. However, the passion that Vigilance Week stirs up is negligent when compared to the shitstorm that results upon the mention of that black sheep of Uncyclopedia holidays: Forest Fire Week. This period in the Fall of 2006, when Uncyc was still really an infant in wiki-years, saw over 3000 articles deleted, more than 15% the total website content at the time. In fact, this very article will probably merit at least one forum regarding FFW despite this periodical's poor circulation and low-quality electrons. At press time, the subtle link to Vigilance Week had caused a medium-sized riot, with hordes of angry users tipping over cars in the Uncyclopedia Parking Structure and setting the animals in the Uncyclopedia Zoo loose. The Cabal is poised to get involved by seizing all media outlets and gener- ATTENTION COMMONERS. ALL IS WELL. THERE WILL BE NO OCCURENCES OF ANY DELETION WEEKS OF ANY KIND. FURTHERMORE, COMEDIC ALLOWANCES WILL HEREBY BE INCREASED FROM 80 GRAMS TO 65 GRAMS. THIS MESSAGE IS NOT THE DOING OF THE CABAL, AS THERE IS NO CABAL. GOODNIGHT, AND HAVE A PLEASANT TOMORROW. |

UnSignpost Editors Too Busy Working on Anniversary UnSignpost to Bother with This Week's Issue Since next week marks the incredible one-year anniversary of the storied UnSignpost, the editors are focusing all of their efforts on that issue and thus leaving this issue out in the cold. Rest assured that next week's 46th issue, marking the 46 weeks in the year on the Uncyclopedia calendar, will be "a bumper special issue" according to co-chief-editor Under user. The promise of a special bonus issue brings to mind several of the UnSignpost's more notable issues, such as the All-Kitten Issue and the Seventeenth Issue Spectacular. Reactions to the milestone were mixed in the community. "I feel the signpost has in many ways brought a little too much cabal propaganda to the site for my liking," said noted good-looking tree Sycamore. Were there a cabal, cabal authorities would currently be on the way to Sycamore's house to arrest him. Lucky for him there is no cabal. By the way, if you really thought this was the first anniversary issue, you suck. |

Image fair use policy[edit source]
Hi Mistress, got a question from Eincyclopedia. While we're using virtually any image we like, they impose a very strict copyright policy to avoid legal issues. I told them that as far as I know they enjoy the same legal protection under the fair use clause? Can you give me a few more details about the issue so I can update them? Also, any news on the checkuser thingy? Thanks. ~ 17:01, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, that's not the simple question it seems I'm afraid. I can't give legal advice, and even if I could, such things are complicated. Wikia is based in California, and so subject to the law there. That's not to say that a court in (for example) England might not decide that it has jurisdiction over an editor in England... or even an editor elsewhere (honestly, our courts here are crazy at times). And that also doesn't mean that all images used on a humour wiki can be seen as "fair use". A picture of a fish in the article about Michael Jackson may not have the same protection as a picture of Michael Jackson in the same article. Again, this is not legal advice, nothing official, just some examples of why the whole thing is complicated. For more on this, see where I avoided the same question at Forum:Legal issue#Policy on User safety
- On Checkuser... looks like it's a "no" for now. Sorry. -- sannse (talk) 08:02, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- First, thank you for avoiding in such an elegant manner :). I'll read that forum, but how is that the we use this policy here?. Also, /insert piece about Wikia power hunger wants to rule the world etc. ~
06:42, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- OK, I realize I know this whole discussion, but that doesn't really answers the question of what images can we use and we can't. So the question still remains, what kind of advice can I give them? What's generally acceptable in all wikis and how are we uploading everything we want, more or less? ~
06:45, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- The problem is there really aren't good answers. Fair use is a odd concept that doesn't actually apply until it's used in court. It's not exactly a right you can use now, it's a defence you can use if someone sues you. Seriously, these Americans are weird. But, here's the good bit. There are specific protections that help us all not get sued. In essence, we have to be given the opportunity to set things right before anyone runs to the courts. If Wikia gets a properly formatted and properly submitted take-down notice for an image, then we have to remove it (even if we consider it OK). Then we can choose to challenge that removal in the defined way (remember, I'm not a lawyer, this is just my understanding). Now there are going to be some ifs and buts and wherefors that mean you can't just intentionally upload a load of copyvios and hope the owner doesn't notice, but an image that's uploaded in the belief that "fair use" would be a valid defence is just gonna get a take-down notice and be removed.
- I know this is all wooly and not nice, clear, guidelines, but I asked these same sort of questions of Lawrence Lessig furgossake. And even he couldn't give a clear answer. Although maybe I was just geeking out too much to really listen to what he actually said (and not only that but Godwin, the Godwin, friended me on facebook! And I know this guy whose father was, like, one of the real hackers from the early days! Life don't get better than this!) -- sannse (talk) 18:16, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

The Uncyclopedia UnSignpost is proud to present its 1st Anniversary Special[edit source]
Just like Grandma used to make!
May 5th, 2009 • First Anniversary Issue! • Disdaining news in favour of blatant self-promotion
Self-Proclaimed Greatest Newspaper on the Wiki Reaches First Birthday
The early issues were churned out at a great rate by the founding editors, and Cajek was so enthused by the project that he suggested to Skullthumper that they should move to a twice-weekly release - fortunately, this suggestion was shot down in flames by the doc, or the paper may never have celebrated a second month, let alone a full year! Skullthumper was first to leave the Signpost behind for pastures new, perhaps feeling his work was already done. Looking back nostalgically now at those heady early days, Skull exclusively observed: "Well! Working on the UnSignpost in the beginning was a really fun experience, not gonna lie. Cajek and I were both super excited about it. I'm glad it existed through to today, entirely by the help of other people. The setup was seriously the most fun part. We had NO clue what we were doing, we were experimenting with formatting, content, and a bot that only worked half the time. To summarize: It kicked ass. I had no idea it was about a year ago that it started." With only Cajek powering it, the Signpost forged onwards, but was beginning to run into troubled waters - even Cajek's legendary enthusiasm was beginning to founder, and when he began to struggle for time, he asked DJ Irreverent to take the helm. We asked Cajek for a nostalgic comment about the Signpost, but he was unavailable, so instead here's a random line from one of his articles: "Also, don't be surprised if you go to jail for what society deems "gross", "horrible", and "Satanic": it's all part of being an ant keeper... and an ant "watcher"". The DJ managed to steady the ship (how long can we sustain this metaphor?), but struggled to handle the torch he'd been passed by his adopter (looks like we didn't sustain it very long - never mind!). Asked to comment on this turbulent period, the DJ exclusively remarked: "I dropped said torch like a ton of bricks as a good child should always do. I could not take on the family business, I needed to dance. Anyway, I wrote about 2 articles". So the pattern of users taking over the paper, only to burn out and abandon it again was becoming well established. Next in the editor's chair was UU, who lasted about 6 issues, before becoming so overwhelmed by the pressures of the paper that he went and got married in order to have a good excuse to get away from it for a few weeks. Recalling those halcyon days, UU told us exclusively: "I love the Signpost, and have had a great time working on it. It does get in the way of writing real articles though, as some users might testify, and it can be a pain to come up with stories each week - hopefully this issue might spark a few people to put some more ideas in the press room". Fortunately, UU had taken the foresighted step of questioning the staying power of one Gerrycheevers in a previous issue's "comeback of the week" box, and Gerry was so determined to prove he had what it took, that he took over the paper while UU swanned off around the world. Cheevers's time at the helm brought such classic issues as the all-kitten issue, and his exclusive dewy-eyed remembrances run thusly: "I'm proud for having successfully stolen this periodical from Cajek and Skull, and I look forward to many more years of turning forums into news stories, dredging up old features that nobody cares about, and of course making tedious Cajek ban jokes. I also demand a raise and Cajek's office!" Unfortunately, Cheevers's staying power lived up to UU's expectations, and Gerry took another small break. UU returned to the paper, and frantically enlisted contributions from the likes of Orian57 and Heerenveen to keep the wheels of news turning smoothly. Asked for comment on his input, Orian exclusively told us: "It's a been a great help in bonding together this community. And it's made things more interesting, what with everyone trying to do news worthy things just to get their names in the paper. Or something, I can't manufacture funny under pressure and this is pressure because you're gonna put this in the paper just to humiliate me now, aren't you?". Hv, meanwhile, exclusively commented: "It's amazing that our wonderful newspaper has lasted for so long, especially when you figure Gerrycheevers has been fully back on board since early this year, UU is still hanging around in between banning people and huffing stuff, and with other contributors still pitching in, plus a plentiful supply of Cajek bans to use as padding (see next story), it looks like the immediate future of the paper is in Wish we'd gotten a quote from Cajek though. Bastard. Cajek 100 Ban Extravaganza During the very same week that Uncyclopedia's most well-known journalism source (suck it, UnNews!) celebrates its first birthday with much cake and punch, one of its co-founders achieved his own personal milestone by being banned for the one hundredth time. Rumors of making Cajek an admin when he reached the milestone have thus far not proven to be true, although he may have magically gained sysop powers upon entering triple-digit territory and we just won't know it until he comes back from wherever he's hiding in a hailstorm of admin-related activity (whatever it is that they do). The milestone was reached largely thanks to users such as Sockpuppet of an unregistered user, who took to the streets in a grassroots effort to raise awareness, and Gerrycheevers, who went directly to certain sysops with demonstrably active bansticks pleading for a "Cajek-whooping." The landmark 100th ban was achieved yesterday, with the good Dr. Skullthumper blocking Cajek with an expiry time of "a milestone". The UnSignpost would like to congratulate Cajek, and also plead for his return. Cajek was unavailable for comment, and this reporter was once again chased off of the grounds of the Cajek Mansion, this time by the abstract philosophical concept of existentialism.

Query Regarding Underage Users Creating sexually explicit content[edit source]
If a user who claims to be 12 years old is creating a page with sexually explicit, is wikia, or anyone else required to stop said underage user from creating such content? --Mnb'z 18:31, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, someone is... his parents. (Also, see Wikia's ToS) - sannse (talk) 19:19, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
- Mnbvcxz, did you actually talk with him and mention that this is out of line before discussing this with the cabal? Because I failed to see anything on his talk page. ~
22:15, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
- No, I didn't say anything to him, for the simple reason that I don't know the policy on that issue, and its a potential legal issue. The potential legality issues is why I brought it to Sannse's attention, instead of a regular admin. Talking to him about it wouldn't have mattered anyway, as he was violating Wikia's Terms of Service merely by being under 13 years old and registered, and he was banned for year because of it. --Mnb'z 06:02, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Wales Speaks Exclusively to UnSignpost!
When pressed on these vital issues, Jimbo confided to us: "You kids get offa my pipe! Now, where's my lawn?" These are words that every user will interpret in their own special way - Jimbo, like all great orators, has the ability to make profound pronouncements that each and every listener will put their own unique spin on, so that it seems he is talking to them alone.

Is it a Usergroup if there are no Users Grouped in it?
In January 2009, archaeologists from the Philippines dug through the ruins of the usergroups and found compelling evidence that there is still a small amount of activity in the UNSOC group, whose interim leader Necropaxx was heard to observe "UNSOC has about 3 or so active users right now; we just keep that gigantic list to inflate our numbers". The non-existent Cabal have not made any comment about this being a dastardly plan of theirs to ensure the "golden Age" of Uncyclopedia 2005-2007 remains sacrosanct. Because they don't exist, obviously. |

Glorious Cajek return story
People disappearing, people reappearing, people with little time on their hands, bots unavailable In the mean time, fortunately, several other users have made glorious returns to Uncyclopedia. As documented elsewhere, a Cajek is apparently back and doing stuff. MNM5150 has been doing some things around places, mostly the forums. Readmesoon has been spotted at VFH and a few talkpages. Yettie has been sporadically active. And Todd Lyons has been doing more stuff recently than he was doing less recently. A lot of users seem to be unable to contribute as their work/school requires them to spend their time on "useful" things. The more young adult users/little kids seem to be struggling with certain "finals", like Mahm00shA for instance. SysRq appears to be working on his graduation. Statistics show that Hyperbole's activity has been rather low, but recently increased dramatically. For how long this trend will continue is uncertain. UU has been here intermittently, but keeps proclaiming himself to be "busy". He commented "I don't have time. In fact, I may not even have time for banning and deleting today, things are going fucking nuts! [...] I have teetering mounds of work, and nowhere near enough time! Arrrrrgh! (I almost feel a second exclamation mark coming on, but nothing's that bad...)" He then proved himself to be a big fat liar by editing this story and various other bits of the UnSignpost. Additionally, while Wikipedia is being overrun by bots, they seem to have gone completely extinct on Uncyclopedia. This has led to our beloved Socky becoming partly mechanized in order to fill the role of paperbot. However, he is currently planning to get his bot operational so he won't have to tire his arse off every week. Porn! Porn! Pr0n!
There has been somewhat of a controversy as of lately about the existence of supposed pornographic images on Uncyclopedia. Some support the view "Only if it's funny.", while others say "Meh." The controversy led Orian57 to put all his gay porn on QVFD. Optimuschris was quoted saying "I don't know what the fuss is all about, there's no porn on Uncyclopedia!" The discussion seems to have concluded in something like "If it's really bothering you and isn't funny in any way, delete it!" Mnbvcxz might also want to add that pictures showing prominent nudity could give rise to some legal issues, though he wasn't actually available for comment, so we can't really be sure. Usergroups! Usergroups! Usergroups!
War is raging in usergroup land. IC, suffering major losses, has been grinded to a halt and was forced into defensive strategy, regressing to trench warfare. But UNSOC, with masses of new recruits, has declared an all out war against any potential competition. Meanwhile, a new powerful group has arisen, Der Unwehr, and they have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with. The Goa Tse Clan has gone into hiding and remains a mystery to most Uncyclopedians. "The End" is being foretold once more
Since this UnSignpost issue almost didn't make it to the press, it was inevitable that there would be foretellings of "The End" and it being "near". On Forum:Count to a million, Orian57 was found stating "we could all die [...] then how stupid would we look?" A lot of users made somewhat eccentric speculations on how several issues were related to this "impending doom". Multiliteralist, Cajek and Optimuschris posted the following "articles" in response to a request to write something for the UnSignpost. Porn and the impending doom As we all know, the impending doom to all good things is caused by porn. This vile practice of drawing pictures of naked women has spread so wide among our young men that it is almost impossible to get them to do anything else. User groups and the impending doom
No wai, the impending doom is caused by user groups! Impending doom and porn
Our porn! The usergroups are coming, and with them...impending doom! Treasure these last few mumble with your porn for the end is nigh! First person article about porn and impending doom I was in a usergroup, watching porn. Suddenly I understood watching porn in a usergroup would do nothing against the impending doom. I got rather stuck, and forgot the reason. Later, I forgot about the impending doom as well. That's what watching porn in a usergroup will do to you. Suddenly I understood: if you are the first person in a usergroup, nobody can make you watch porn. My advice
The perfect solution to problems with porn, usergroups, and the impending doom Form your own usergroup and make others watch porn! |

Are accounts only to be operated by one person? Saberwolf116 00:31, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
- That's a question for the community as a whole. As far as Wikia is concerned, it's up to each individual wiki to decide. Personally, I like to know who I'm talking to. and as it's totally free to make an account, I can't see any good reason to share. But if you want a definitive answer, take it to the Dump -- sannse (talk) 08:26, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

What, some of you may ask, are portal pages? Well, rather than have us explain it laboriously for you (because that sounds like, you know, effort), why not take a look at the following highly sexy portals: Politics; Games; Science; History and Art. And with more to come including the intriguing concept of a Quaint portal from Cajek, one thing's for sure: there has recently been an increase in the number of portals on Uncyclopedia. What? Nile and Nile related articles invade Uncyclopedia! We also asked the wealthy Egyptian and Babylonian antique collector Mr. Great Lung Sphincter of Nebuchadnezzar the 1st to comment and he exclusively replied: "Nile doesn't have any power. Now the Tigris-Euphrates, that's a different story". Not only does this tell us that the Tigris-Euphrates conspiracy theorists are cooler than Nile conspiracists, but that Nile could not invade Uncyclopedia even if they wanted to, and you should be afraid of the Tigris-Euphrates conspiracy theorists - very afraid. To sum it up, there is no Nile and Nile related articles invasion of Uncyclopedia, just as there is no cabal. |

Todd not Lionised by all?
Lyons himself was deeply touched by the tribute, exclusively telling the USP: "I'm a bit surprised (though not touched, like the WotM nomination this month), because I generally shy away from the snappy/nasty ban summaries that would guarantee me a spot in the UnSignpost. Really, RDB is my #1 pick for this, and richly deserves to have a hate group on Facebook (if not several dozen by now). :) Second, if I had any insecurities that I'd lost my touch with the ban hammer after being on hiatus, they're gone. The arm's feeling great. The surgery seems to have been a 100% success. I'm feeling good that I'll be able to finish out the season and hopefully garner some interest as a bureaucrat when I become a free agent this fall." The group's creator was unavailable for comment, probably due to being banned. Comings and Goings As you may or may not have noticed, there recently seems to be a flurry of returns and hiatuses (hiati?) on this silly wiki that some of us like to call Uncyclopedia. This could be due to a number of things: the end of the school year and thus the end of studying and finals; the summer season causing new and strange emotions in internet comedy writers; the revolving door recently installed at the Uncyclopedia headquarters. Regardless of the reason, those returning have been 'welcomed', and those leaving have been warned that their userpages will be mercilessly vandalized should their vacation extend overly long. Popular aquatic creature user Finnius claims to have returned. His contributions since returning have thus far been limited to announcing his return in the forum (as required by Uncyclopedia Bylaw #435), but the Unsignpost is confident of a return laced with quality pee and other, less pungent useful contributions. The elusive Cajek, a mythical creature once thought to exist only in the surreal dreams of squirrels, has returned gloriously upon the back of a giant squirrel. So at least some part of the myth was true. Take that, science! Other returns include Dexter111344 after a brief hiatus and Gouncyclopedia!, who evaded a years-long block to announce his return in the forums (UB435 again). Perhaps the most noted of all, faithful new dog Dognewspaper returns from a one-month hiatus to appear in this story. Other users have seen a decline or all-out drop-off in their contribution level. SysRq remains on an indefinite hiatus. Gerrycheevers has seen his number of edits dwindle as of late. MrN9000 is still among the missing. Codeine is apparently gone as well, and Necropaxx will be losing his precious internet. We bid these users to hurry back, lest their userpages and works be smited with the hammer of pointless vandalism. |

UnSignpost June 11th/12th/whatever[edit source]
I love it when the news comes together
June 11th, 2009 • Issue 51 • Also available in convenient suppository form!
"Uncyclopedia Worst, Boys Smelly" Declares User In a move that shocked the Uncyclopedia community, female user Kamikazewatermelon09 this week posted a topic in the lovable Pancake House of Benson. The shocking part of the incident was that an actual girl visited Uncyclopedia. Hooray! Our numerous virgin users can now cross off 'make contact with a woman (without giving a credit card number) over the internet, phone, or via smoke signal' from the list of steps towards achieving manhood. Though we can't help you with that face-to-face stuff...we hear that genre of contact is terrifying. The content of the post was too lengthy and riddled with cooties for the male, attention span deficient UnSignpost editors to actually read. Furthermore, the UnSignpost Executive Board refuses to add cootie insurance to the UnSignpost employee health plan. However, resident awesome potatochopper and known girl Sonje was recruited to read the message and react as if she had been asked a clever question by a hypothetical handsome UnSignpost reporter. From her exclusive comments, it seems that the topic poster was disappointed in the vulgarity and immaturity displayed by many of our gentlemen users. "I find the crassness rather endearing," Sonje responded, "in moderation." So, the moral of the story is: the users who really count will forgive us our occasional desire to cuss a blue streak or upload some boob-related images. So...go nuts! Cabal Criticism of the Week
This week, lead Cabalist Mordillo blocked The Wizard Of Oz with an expiry time of Judgement Day, and did not provide a reason for the epic pwning. We here at the UnSignpost would like to call out Mordillo on this lack of explanation. Not as a courtesy to the user, which he certainly did not earn through his insertions of a weird version of a California article into several unseeming places. No, we would like to know why Mordillo did not take advantage of an opportunity that was ripe with comedic potential. Surely this poor soul's username could have resulted in a ban reason referencing shiny red shoes or flying monkeys? A statement concerning the location of the user being a place that is not Kansas? We would have settled for a measly 'looking for a brain' line. But instead, you left us hanging, Mordillo. We'd like to officially call you on it, and we take comfort in knowing that though you can ban the editors, and you can ban our freedom, you can never ban the UnSignpost. Though, on second thought, you could delete it. |

A minor inconvenience[edit source]
Hi there sannse, I know you are not an admin anymore and I are experiencing some mild inconvenience in my abuse of the associated IRC channel. Specifically, when I try to be funny online the server informs me thus:
- uncyclopedia :Cannot send to channel
I believe the technical term is that my account has been de-voiced. Would you be as kind as to refer me to any one of the admins I could contact about this? Thanking you in advance, di Mario 21:13, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Dynamic IP problem[edit source]
Hello there Sannse, I just thought i'd tell you about this IP we're having a problem with, in case you might be able to use your staff powers to trace/ban him.
Anyways, over the past month, this IP has been under the impression that Roman Dog Bird is a "FAGGOT NIGGER MOTHERFUCKER", and has recently vadalized this. Is there anyway you could get rid of this guy? A few of his sockpuppets are AfricanAmerican and Da Lion King. Saberwolf116 21:56, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

UnSignpost! June 18th/19th![edit source]
Sucking Journalism's Fat Wang. Badly.
June 18th, 2009 • Issue 52 • Thinly sliced news, between two slices of humor, with lettuce and hollandaise sauce
Votes for Sandwiches Officially Opens This week, Votes for Sandwiches was established by Uncyclopedia Internetist and Lead Executive of Sandwiches, Spang. Previously some sort of secret cabal hazing page, lead cabalists have thrown the doors of VFS open to reveal thinly sliced meats on a variety of breads. Or they would have, if the cabal existed, which it doesn't. Official Cabal Spokesman Mordillo exclusively explained the new feature best: "The cabal, as part of its never-ending efforts to assert its all-consuming control over the citizenry, has now introduced voting for sandwiches. Each editor will be required to eat the elected sandwiches for the entire following month. Members of the cabal will closely observe voter's decisions to make sure that no vile sandwiches, such as BAKED BEANS ON TOAST WITH MELTED CHEESE, will be chosen. That's just vile. Editors will not be allowed to protest over the "democratically" "chosen" "sandwich". We're not Iran." Reactions to the new voting page were mixed. Some users were excited for the opportunity to express their fondness towards various lunches, provided that those lunches are a sandwich. "I'm glad that sandwiches, a comedy staple due to their low-priced nature and assembly so simple that even a writer can construct one, are finally getting their due on Uncyclopedia," said resident criminology term Modusoperandi. Others were not so supportive of the move, and point to recent disturbing trends since the introduction of VFS, the most disturbing being the raiding of the fridge in the Uncyclopedia break room and the subsequent theft of all sandwiches. Well, maybe not all sandwiches, but one specifically marked "gerry's. do not eat." So far no group has claimed responsibility for this act of sandwich-related terrorism. I will find you, you little punk! And when I do, you're making me another sandwich! Comebacks! Only $19.95! Call Now!
Following a month and a half hiatus, resident VFD overlord and prince of pants MrN9000 is alleged to have returned to the wiki. According to reliable sources, MrN was spotted responding to his talk page and maintaining QVFD, among various other tasks. What other things he may do remains to be seen. We do know, however, that he has been welcomed warmly by the community, with Mordillo giving him the brand new nickname "fucker" and various users bestowing an award of reliability on him. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! Call Now And Get 2 for the Price Of 1!
Following in MrN's robotically symmetrical footsteps was noted keyboard component SysRq. After many weeks of inactivity, Sys has returned to once again putter the Imperial Colonization ship around Uncyclopedia Harbor. He has described his goals as "re-assimilate as best I can" and "Go to hell, Dex". We would like to welcome both of these users back to the loving Uncyclopedia family, and urge them to GET BACK TO WORK!! Things Brewing In IRC People are yelling at each other, stalking each other, and randomly talking to one another. What I am talking about is, of course, IRC, the highly controversial melting pot of Uncyclopedia, where users of all stands, races, and levels of activity can talk about unimportant issues. It has recently come to our attention that ruthless battles were being fought on the fields of IRC. Our correspondent decided to check things out for himself. He was confronted with gay dinosaurs, Star Wars references and general dickery. Though this one time visit cannot render a clear view of the complex nature of IRC, it might give us a glimpse into the mind of the common IRCer. The dark, mysterious character of IRC remains. |

Opinion[edit source]
We were talking here about possibly creating a beta wiki to see what Uncyclopedia would be like without IP edits. I was wondering if you could weigh in on how difficult it might be to make one, or whether we should do it, etc. Saberwolf116 03:49, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- I can't see how this would work. A beta would never get the same traffic as the real site, so would never be a real test. It would just be a personal mirror for three or four users. Technically, it's not difficult... but socially it would give no information to solve the argument. (An argument, I must say, that gets recycled so often that it's a sodden and unusable wad of broken down fibres) -- sannse (talk) and a bit of sannse (talk) 08:23, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

- Hi, the best way to contact staff is via Special:Contact. If you put my name on it, then the mail will be assigned to me. Alternatively, you can use Special:EmailUser/Sannse which goes directly to me. But if it's a Wikia issue, then I'll likely forward it to the other address anyway, because that helps with the Community Team's organisation and record keeping... so it's probably best to send it there in the first place :) -- sannse (talk) 12:55, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

I tried to add something to your page at the top, and got: "Spam protection filter From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia. The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter.

- The <big> tag filters is because certain people thought it was funny to replace pages with a bunch of big tags and a "naughty" or vanity word (and still do).
- The reason her user and talk page look alike is because she set it up to. She has embedded her userpage at the top of the talk and the talk at the bottom of the user. Clever 'tis.

Unsignpost! June 25th or 30th[edit source]
Telling You Stuff You Already Knew, But With Different Words!
June 25th, 2009 • Issue 53 • The newspaper that steals other newspapers' lunch money
Users Campaign to Delete Vast Portions of Uncyclopedia Several users have recently begun campaigns to rid Uncyclopedia of some of its oldest, cruftiest, stalest content, or so they would have you believe. We at the UnSignpost aren't here to report anything other than the facts, including but not limited to: opinions, speculation, and pictures of cats with funny captions. First on the chopping block was the Timeline series. This group of articles apparently chronicles the made-up version of history as recorded by people who aren't very funny. Dr. Skullthumper has taken the lead in the crusade against this unholy document, and reactions on the wiki were, as usual, mixed. Some users supported the good doctor, while others appreciated his sentiment but enjoyed the crisp, fresh smell of proper procedure much better. Noted deletionist Gwax made an appearance in order to streamline the effort to remove all of the unfunniness from the timeline, and he has been joined by several other users seeking to improve rather than delete the entire project. Next in line for the guillotine was Uncyclopedia's longest-running and only soap opera, The Young and the Uncyclopedians. At the head of this movement is prominent murderous amphibian Thekillerfroggy, who made such bold claims as "Vanity, sir!" and "Words words words!" As this project is not merely a page but an entire slew of pages, it was rejected by the Uncyclopedia Deletion Tribunal, but further actions may be in the works. When reached for comment about the situation, Uncyclopedia founder Chronarion responded, "AAAAAAAA!!!!" Usefulness of IP Contributions Called Into Question...Again The question of whether or not we should allow IPs to edit our precious humor wiki has been raised yet again, this time by plucky Der Unwehr founder Guildensternenstein. UnSignpost reporters were baffled by the concept of what an IP was, until it was explained that it is some sort of automatic vandalism robot designed to troll websites, post vanity, and ensure all articles make the proper amount of references to Chuck Norris. The debate raged fiercely, with many users falling on either side of the so-called "IP line". One camp decided that the contributions from these entities did more harm than good to the community and its collection of humor. The opposing faction took up the opposite view: that IP editors were harmless and at worst an annoyance. Modusoperandi, the lead counsel for the IP defense team, made several compelling arguments, most notably the case that IPs are adorable and thus harmless. In the end, it was decided that IP editing is something we must live with, mostly because Conservapedia doesn't allow it, and we don't want to be any more like them than we already are. When reached for comment about the situation, Uncyclopedia founder Chronarion responded, "AAAAAAAA!!!!" |

Could we get one? Like... this one? It would be cool. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 22:00, 30 Jun 2009
- There is one installed on Wikia, but not fully active or working. We've generally been reluctant to add them because of copyright concerns (ha!), because we don't want to become a file repository, and because the size restrictions on uploads may affect their use anyway. But we'll dig it out, dust it off a bit, and see if a slap with a hammer will fix it. -- sannse (talk) 16:03, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Well the only use right now would be for UnTunes and spoken article/unnews audios, so it's just a much easier way to access content we already have and wikia are already hosting. Even just hosting the .swf of a flash mp3 player (which there's hundreds of!) somewhere would be good, and I could hack together the rest with JS. Though obviously an actual extension would be far better. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 02:22, 14 Jul 2009

The Newspaper 4 out of 5 Dentists Agree On!
July 2nd, 2009 • Issue 54 • The newspaper with the name that's an anagram of "stop using n"
The Young and The Uncyclopedians Cancelled After enjoying a long-running career and several writer changes, Uncyclopedia's fabled soap opera The Young and the Uncyclopedians was cancelled this week. And by "cancelled" we mean totally owned by Thekillerfroggy. It seems TKF finally had enough, and spent nearly an hour systematically deleting the entire series, which previously contained over 60% of all content in the UnScripts namespace. The newly freed electrons, no longer required for TYATU, can now be used for other Uncyclopedia-related tasks, such as boron smelting, and they may even be used to form a sort of crude bot that can edit The count to a million project automatically. Not content with merely obliterating the entire series, Thekillerfroggy apparently became bored halfway through his holy crusade, and decided to get creative in the deletion summaries. As can be seen in a memorial erected by what is presumed to be a jilted fan of the show, TKF nostalgized and ranted, remembered and forgot, loved and lost, all while expressing his inner thoughts through the medium of deletion summaries. An example can be seen at the very end of his effort, where Thekillerfroggy writes: "Sigh./Well here's the home stretch/It's been real/We've had some good times/some bad times/But in the end/All we are is dust in the wind/So goodnight, sweet prince/Farewell TYATU/Fin." Reactions on the wiki were, as usual, mixed. Some users held a candlelight vigil in userspace, where some of the episodes have been resurrected in a zombie-like form. Entertainment editor DogNewspaper (pictured) wagged his tail, perhaps expressing hope that one day a new soap opera, sitcom, or crime investigation show featuring Uncyclopedia editors would once again grace this site. We can only dream... Main Page Suffers Spasms of Dickery If you logged onto the Main Page sometime on July 2nd between 2:00 and 3:00 GMT (and if you can't figure out what time that is where you live, then don't expect us to provide it for you, we're not a bloody watch!), you may have noticed some subtle changes. Instead of the usual Wikipedia-like format, with carefully organized features, news stories, anniversaries, and vital information, you may or may not have found...something else. You may or may not have found an intruiging offer to reffer freinds to take some sort of mp3-player related actions. You may or may not have found some sort of story with a vague theme of respecting one's elders, and everything about those elders, and we do mean everything. You may or may not have found some sort of strange mix of the two that left you with conflicting feelings. These feelings may or may not have included, but not been limited to: fear, anger, jealousy, confusion, fear again, and a vague sensation of falling. The admins responsible for this will not be named here, due to their next probable course of action in the case in which we did mention them, which would most likely be something along the lines of turning every UnSignpost issue into a Euroipod, whatever that is. The only thing we can report on is that the shenanigans ended just over an hour after they began, with the Main Page being restored to its previous false information-rich state. However, this episode shows us that it will never be safe from the hijinks of that group of admins, who, again, will not be named. |

Survivor returns to Uncyclopedia after almost two years
In late 2007, a man by the name of Leoispotter had the idea to bring his favorite reality show to Uncyclopedia. Thus, the first season of UnSurvivor was created. After five thrilling rounds of voting, Mr. Briggs Inc. managed to win against the other finalist, Thekillerfroggy, by a mere two votes. Flash forward almost two years. Kingkitty, a competitor in the first UnSurvivor, decides it's time for another go-around, and season 2 is born. In an exclusive interview with Mr. Kitty, he had this to say: "Well, I was bored ("and crazy", says one passing by civilian) and I thought: 'perhaps the community could do something fun, and stop with all this writing bullshit.'" When later asked what he thought about this current season, he said, "It's showing to be bigger and better than last season, with more betrayals, more violence, more whining, and more betrayals. Lots of betrayals. Mostly of me." Currently, UnSurvivor Season 2 is in its final round of voting, where the voted-off members of the game get to vote on the finalist they want to win. The finalists this season are: after last seasons defeat, Thekillerfroggy, and newcomers to the show, THEDUDEMAN and An Ape that Only Exists on Thursdays. Voting is set to take place over 72 hours instead of the usual 24, and the winner will be announced sometime Friday July 10th. After this, according to Mr. Kitty, there "probably" will be a season 3, and it will be bigger and better than anything ever before.
Uncyclopedians pay crass tasteless tribute to Michael Jackson Michael Jackson, the legendary King of Pop, touched many lives, and the news of his untimely demise has left a deep void in the lives of his millions of fans and victims. Fans all over Uncyclopedia, stricken by grief, flocked by the dozens to mourn their departed hero in the only way they knew how: through the medium of humour. They ranged from perfunctory to crude to mediocre, but each expressed a deeply profound sadness that the weird plastic rapist was no more. (Yeah, "weird plastic rapist". That's what you wanted to hear, isn't it? Ha ha ha.) Tributes continue to pour in despite the fact that it is no longer funny or clever. With the stage set for a long, protracted battle over his kids and estate, Uncyclopedia expects that unfunny people will continue to get mileage out of this story for many weeks to come. Uncyclopedia admins plan to send a selection of the best "tributes" to the Jackson family, along with the number of a company that recycles plastics. (That's what you wanted to hear, isn't it? Ha ha ha.) Editors emerge from woodwork, contribute to UnSignpost This week, when UnSignpost Active Editor Gerrycheevers brought up the Uncyclopedia page containing the currently in-progress UnSignpost, he suffered a minor heart attack upon finding that two stories had already been added to the paper. It seems both An Ape that Only Exists on Thursdays and THEDUDEMAN, both newly given the title "Consulting Editor", took exception to being named "Consulting Editor" and took it upon themselves to blanket the UnSignpost with awesomeness. Unsignpost Payroll Manager DogNewspaper (pictured) bared his teeth at this development, indicating his frustration at having to re-issue new timecards to both editors. Gerrycheevers is expected to make a full recovery; flowers can be sent to the Uncyclopedia Infirmary and Shooting Range. |

UnSignpost: July 16nd, 2009[edit source]
Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth
July 16th, 2009 • Issue 56 • This is a Pathetic Joke
User Return Causes Widespread Panic This week noted user An Ape that Only Exists on Thursdays returned to the wiki, and immediately rendered that return "triumphant". However, other users are beginning to feel the effects of the presence of this primate whose quantum mechanical properties dictate that he be only during certain periods of the week. This incident left onlookers shocked, and worrying if something similar could happen to them. Not since the return of a scantily-clad Olipro has this website seen such a display of sheer terror mixed with complete confusion (and in the case of Olipro, a bit of curious arousal mixed in). The aforementioned incident involved one user who had AATOEOT embedded in his dreams. Most curiously, this episode seems to have happened on a Friday night, a time period when an An Ape that Only Exists on Thursdays should decidedly not exist. Nearly a week has passed without further disruptions, although that may be partially due to Ape's ban after being kicked off of the Uncyclopedia island during a rousing game of Uncyclopedia Survivor. Regardless of the reasons behind the strange occurrences, users should be sure to keep an eye out for strange occurrences on and off the wiki...particularly on Thursdays. Flood of Crap Nearly Overflows VFD For the last few days, an explosion of nominations has inundated Uncyclopedia's waste removal system, Votes for Deletion. After a period of low activity, where there would typically be just a few to several nominations, things picked up last week. In the last few days, the situation has accelerated into what is being called by experts a "shit-ton" of undesirable content festering in the dark, unvisited corners of the wiki. Said undesirable content is currently being read, discussed, and dealt with accordingly, as is the usual procedure at the highly efficient VFD. Circumstances have escalated to the point of rattling a few relaxed admins. One such incident involved a user getting the customary one-day ban for increasing the active nomination count past twenty, when the user in question had, in fact, only increased the number of active noms to twenty. Owing to the normal tendency of the article count of VFD to stay in the low single digits lately, the lapse is certainly forgiveable, and was quickly corrected. Afterwards the two parties exchanged pleasantries and shared a S'Mores which was roasted over the open bonfire of newly deleted articles. Former poopsmith MrN9000 commented on the situation, saying, "Well you know I fancy the standards at VFD have improved significantly in recent times. Not so long ago it would often just be a quick "Short and Shit" vote from UU, and the latest stub was on for a huffing. These days we are spending more time voting on closer votes and are deleting much better articles than we used to! Something VFD is really proud of." In a final display of VFD patriotism, MrN added, "CHECK THE PAGE HISTORY BEFORE NOMINATING YOU BUGGERS!" Orian57 On Fire Noted rainbow-colored user Orian57 has recently enjoyed a remarkable string of success (pictured on right). He has scored an unprecedented natural hat trick of features, with UnBooks:Daddy, There's a Zombie in the Garden, LazyTown, and UnScripts:Trapped at Sea reaching the front page on consecutive days. Not since the time of such legends as Savethemooses and The Thinker have such lofty VFH records been broken. Although in the case of STM, there were probably mitigating factors involved, like wooden articles rather than aluminum, or something. Or aluminium, that strange substance only found in England by mining thousands of millions of other strange occurences, such as referring to the trunk of a car as a "boot". This god-like spasm of awesomeness is fresh on the heels of Orian's Writer of the Month win in June of this year. Since the beginning of that month, he has seen six of his works grace the front page, and he shows no signs of slowing down. When reached for comment, he explained, "Well I suppose it's down to being fantastic. And unemployed. But mostly being fantastic." The UnSignpost would like to congratulate Orian on his recent spat of win, and express hopes he will continue the pattern well into the future. |

Th-the m-m-most con-confident new-Newspaper in a wh-while
July 23rd, 2009 • Issue 57 • The Newspaper That Won't Tell Everyone That You Wet the Bed! Oops...
Uncyclopedia Users Form Fantasy Football League This week, several Uncyclopedians banded together under the leadership of one Guildensternenstein to form some sort of "Fantasy Football" organization. What exactly this entails is unclear, but it appears that the football- and soccer-related fantasies of the participating members will be carried out in the semi-private confines of the forums. Reactions were mixed to this development, with some users expressing emotions ranging from apathy to indifference. Others voiced concern about children, decency, and lewd public conduct. "My little boy came home today saying something about going to another boy's house to perform football fantasies!" said one outraged and confused mother. Regardless of the small amount of negative feedback, participants are eager to begin fantasizing about their favorite football players, such as David Beckham. Bradaphraser had this to say: "The Fantasy Football League is a chance for Uncyclopedians to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday Uncyclopedia work and actually have some fun for a change. While I usually am busy with the administrating task of sitting on my lazy ass and doing nothing, this gives users a chance to see me in a more relaxed state." "I fully expect that this venture will be just as successful as my recent run for the Presidency," continued Brad, "which I lost to Bradford Lyttle of the Pacifist party by a mere 110 votes. I fully expect to win one or possibly even two games in this upcoming season, assuming of course that a draft is eventually held." Said draft is scheduled to begin immediately, and assuming only a small portion of footballers flee to Canada to evade this draft, the Uncyclopedia Fantasy Football League will be ready to hold its first game by opening day. Village Dump Suffers From Rash of Inactivity In a startling development, activity on Uncyclopedia's main gathering place, the Village Dump, has all but ceased. With The UnIdiot registering the sole comment in the last three full days, the normal flow of important, relevant conversation in the Forums appears to have dried up. While an excess of users can usually be found loitering aimlessly in the halls of the Dump, it appeared all but deserted as of press time. Several theories have been raised, ranging from the intriguingly possible (July weather causes Uncyclopedians to go outside) to the exceedingly headache-inducing (Uncyclopedians are being abducted by giant space cabbages). However, one of the more interesting theories comes from our lead scientist and nature correspondant, DogNewspaper (unavailable for picture). He claims that while the Village Dump itself along with associated forums such as the Ministry of Love and the Help forum has seen a decline in activity, the so-called Benson's House of Pancakes has seen a shocking upswing in activity. In the same time frame that only a single edit was made in the Village Dump, sixteen different topics were edited in Benson's Breakfast Domicile. DogNewspaper, that earlier mentioned nature correspondant, calls this a migration. "Woof," he claimed, elaborating that many users were unable to adapt to conditions found in the normal Village Dump, and were forced to relocate to the more hospitable Benson-related location. It is here, in the BHOP, that users are free to create topics concerning their own birthdays, the anniversaries of their birth, and memorials commemorating the day they were born. Whether the mass exodus is complete or not has yet to be seen. |

Woop Woop! it's the sound of the Police UnSignpost!
July 30th, 2009• Issue 58• Now Delivered Trendily Late!
Uncyclopedia Users Alter Time Itself This week: an update. As previously reported in an earlier news story, one month ago several well-known contributors went on a campaign to try and delete time itself. It is said they were trying to bring about an end to unfunniness throughout history, with the slight side effect of non-existence. But just as it looked as if their plan would come to fruition, cooler heads prevailed and stopped everything in its tracks. Since then, the plan has changed. Instead of deleting all that ever was, the users have decided it would be much more prudent to just change all of history to their liking. Several users have been seen spending their free time on User:Gwax/Timeline rebuild, in some cases changing events one year at a time, and in others trying to change entire millennia. How they are able to do this, no one is sure, though rumors of a DeLorean DMC-12 have been circulating. The outcomes of the project have, thus far, been very good Remarks from the community on the process have been nothing but positive. "In order to walk the road of peace, we need to climb the mountain of conflict," notable scholar TKF exclusively commented. We have our entire staff working around the clock to figure out what this means as we speak. Town drunk Dexter111344 was also heard mumbling about the subject. He blamed wizards for the whole thing, before stumbling away, probably to make more links to A wizard did it. Regardless, whether its wizards or time machines, the editing of the past continues as we speak, and will continue until all of history has been changed. Or until we get bored and move onto something else. Uncyclopedia Editors Conflicted Over Story Topic Owing to the large amount of things happening in the last week, and also to the fact that this issue is unforgivably late, the editors of the UnSignpost were unable to settle on a single topic for the second story of this week's edition. The editors were also unable to agree on either two topics for a rare three-story issue or how many UnSignpost editors it takes to screw in a lightbulb (the UnSignpost staff has been left to ponder this question in the dark). As a decision could not be reached, it was decided after much deliberation and petty arguing that all of the candidate stories be mentioned rapid-fire in a single story, so as to confuse and irritate the reader and cause him to be required to navigate back to this issue to click on all of the links. These stories are as follows: Zombiebaron returns and petitions to end voting. His effort is parodied, rebutted, and parodied again. A link to Requested Articles is placed on the sidebar and MadMax commences handing out badges to requested article creators. Zombiebaron returns again to demand reskins, which we understand means he needs to replace all of his undead flesh with "fresh flesh". Cajek returns, but not really. VFH maxes out at 23 nominations at press time, including some discussion-inducing selections. More events certainly occured, but we can't be arsed to list everything for you. |

August 6th, 2009 • Issue 59 • Painfully Extracting Nuggets of Truth from the Teeth of the News!
Uncyclopedia Triples Ad Revenue; Users Line Up For Paychecks This week, Uncyclopedia's benign evil overlords, Wikia, shuffled the advertising layout on our fine website. Previously, the left sidebar contained just one Wikia spotlight. These spotlights are not advertisements as much as they are a way to whore Wikia and increase its position in some sort of Google rankings, since the links from the banner ads go from Wikia-hosted Uncyclopedia to Google and back to Wikia-hosted wikis on such relevant topics to users who are on a satire wiki as the Burnout Wiki and the Harry Potter wiki. These Google rankings are actually a series of thousands of monkeys at Google headquarters, who move beads around on giant abaci based on search engine hits. Users who click these cleverly disguised and probably illegal "double-switch" ads cause the monkeys to alter the beads in Wikia's favor. However, in recent days this Wikia spotlight was moved to the bottom of each page rather than the sidebar and multiplied by three. A cursory look at any of the wikis linked in these spotlights results in a brutal assault of the senses, as they are all swimming in banner advertisements, sidebar advertisements, advertisements in the content, and links to highly useful Wikia features such as Wikianswers. While the increased number of spotlights on Uncyclopedia has not directly resulted in any cash flow, the increased Google bead rating has indeed caused Wikia stock to jump by six beads (the stock market is also organized using giant abaci, only it is operated by goats rather than monkeys). Wikia has decided to share credit for this jump in value with the users of Uncyclopedia, and all users will be receiving checks for equal amounts next Tuesday. The line forms behind Olipro, wherever he happens to be on Tuesday when the stock market goats arbitrarily decide to stop working for the day. A Hell of a Time at the Village Dump
Recently in the forums, BHOP's activity has arguably skyrocketed. An IP has started a new rhyming craze, and the cheesy, crunchy snack food CheddarBBQ has revived many topics that were getting rather aged, such as Fantasy Football, a Shakira-esque topic, and even his own birthday's topic. Back on BHOP, fruity user Neox's random storytelling and serious user YouKnowWhatTheMusicMeans' serious, dramatic storytelling have made Forum:Who HATES MochiAds? 2's story a complete, random mess. Also, Optimuschris and Modusoperandi have been having one hell of a time discussing the much-anticipated failing of the new G.I. Joe movie. Finally, users have a had a heated battle over whether to ban the Abstain feature on VFH, which is ending up as off-topic and random as an episode of Lost. Are there any cool discussions going on? That's the forum news in your area, now here's Mr. G with the weather, only on |

Date August 13th, 2009 • Issue 60 • Taking the News, Making it Better
UnSignpost Editor Disappears; UnSignpost Suffers Mysterious Drop in Quality August 10, 2009 - a date which will live in infamy. Gerrycheevers, the UnSignpost's handsome, talented, and, often times, only editor announced his leave of absence in order to head west, and make a name for himself. In an UnSignpost Exclusive, Gerry talked at length about his final destination and the exciting journey he expects. "[I'll be heading to] north dakota. [I reckon I'll take the famous Oregon Trail, driving a horse and buggy, herding cattle, planting seeds of injustice wherever I may.]" How long this move out west will take is unknown by all but our best psychics, and since Gerry has them trained to bite anyone who come near, we'll go with Gerry's approximate date of August 21. If all of our readers miss Gerry (and we have a feeling that, one paragraph in, you already do), please drop him a line. Tell him how much he is missed. Tell him that if he ever leaves again, we won't be so forgiving. Just tell him something. We don't want to have to do this without him again. In an unrelated note, the UnSignpost - usually a shining example of grammatical correctness, good spelling, and hilarity - seems to have hit a drop in quality for this week's issue. The reasons for these changes seem to be a mystery to everyone. As far as we can tell, the problems that have arisen are completely arbitrary. The reasons for this change in quality have been the talk of the community this week. Some have suggested the recent meteor shower has caused an influx of gamma radiation into our atmosphere, creating a negative energy all over the Earth, and thus causing our writing abilities to falter. Under User stupidly blamed all of this on the change in editors, saying "Good to see we're keeping the time-honoured Signpost tradition of the revolving door to the editor's office alive and well. Although now Woody's in there, that should probably be a 'revolting' door." Bastard. Uncyclopedian creates Trivia Bot, ruins everything
EMC let loose his bot on the nerds, perverts and middle-aged alcoholics of #uncyclopedia, leading to even less constructive conversation then usual. Instead, the channel is mostly filled with dozens of people shouting random words in the hopes of being awarded meaningless points. Some, however, have pointed out that the only real difference between this and the way things were before is the awarding of points. Not content with destroying one channel, however, EMC subsequently decided to bring his bot to ##turtle,the exciting new channel with the dubious honour of being "the BHOP of IRC" (but with less Bad Shroom), which also served as a staging post for a recent troll invasion of Yahoo! Answers. EMC was unavailable for comment when I was throwing this piece together in five minutes.

New Editors Have Trouble Matching up Left and Right Sides In a startling development, the newest editors of the UnSignpost are proving to be quite inept at lining up the left and right sides of Post's template. It seems that our penchant for placing more and more boxes on the right side of the page has defeated the natural aesthetic of the Post's two-even-sides strategy. While this is a problem, it does seem to be fixable. Namely, by adding this headline and story. Is this just an obvious cry for help, that we are unable to do this without Gerry? Probably.

UnSignpost 20th August, it's not late, your mom is![edit source]
The Newspaper that WILL win Zombiebaron back, damn it.
Date August 20th, 2009 • Issue 61 • Where no news is normal news
Fantasy Football Draft Finished After four weeks of red-hot eight-man free fantasy football league draft action, the first Uncyclopedia Fantasy Football League (UFFL) Draft is finally at a close: Uncyclopedia regular and DiBiase's Millions general manager The Woodburninator made Arizona Cardinals' Kicker Neil Rackers Mr. Irrelevant on the afternoon of August 21th, 2009, a mere 26 hours after the previous pick had been made. Afterward, League Commissioner and noted Nazi sympathizer Guildensternenstein promised to make all subsequent Uncyclopedia Fantasy Football League official actions run much more smoothly. He vowed he would "put the drafted players on their respective fantasy teams" at some point "after I'm done writing this story for the UnSignpost and before I go see Inglorious Bastards later tonight." The draft itself was varied, and picks ranged from the predictable (Vikings' running back Adrian Peterson taken first overall) to the even more predictable (Falcons' running back Michael Turner taken with second overall pick) to the fairly predictable (Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady being the first three quarterbacks taken) to the downright wild. Notable steals include Guildy's nabbing of Chris Johnson in Round 5, Woody's snagging of Aaron Rodgers in Round 6, and Bradaphraser's criminal steal of Dallas tight end Jason Witten. For every good pick, there was a bad one, however: in moves that would make Al Davis proud, LongLiverh3 took Philadelphia's No. 3 receiver while their No. 1 and No. 2 receivers were still on the board, made 30th ranked tight end L.J. Smith the second overall tight end picked, and made Baltimore QB Joe Flacco his backup quarter back while the likes of Matt Schaub, Jay Cutler, Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning were still available. LongLiver could not be reached for comment. New UnSignpost Editor already having trouble filling up space; Falls upon pointless gimmicks, self-references, long article titles to fill void In a move that has surprised literally 0% of the Uncyclopedia UnSignpost community, the newest UnSignpost editor has already hit a wall in trying to think up new articles for the post. Well, that's not actually true. First he wrote a story trying to beg Zombiebaron to re-subscribe for the post. Then he actually looked at Zombiebaron's userpage to find out that he was actually leaving the site. Needless to say, the presses were called back, and more writing had to be done. Namely, this. Now, we at the post already know what you are thinking. But, since putting those things into print is outlawed in 36 states, two Canadian provinces, and all of Lithuania, we will instead reference the fact that there have been an awful lot of self-referencing in the UnSignpost lately. For that we are truly sorry. Also, we are sorry for self-referencing our own self-referencing. It is truly a problem that continues to build upon itself. We hope to soon continue with the top notch reporting that is so often found in our hallowed archives. Such as the time we wrote about Spang's village dump conquests, or the time we self-referenced how the UnSignpost's lovable mascot, "Dognewspaper" had not been in the Unsignpost for over nine months. Or that time we wrote about the Fantasy Football Draft being finished. Yes, all of those times were good. And we plan - nae, promise - to, in the very near future, continue bringing those kinds of articles to your doorstep. That is, if you don't mind finding a bit of drool upon it. |

Question[edit source]
Lo Sannse. Are you already in the US BTW? Howzit over there? I was wondering if we can limit the option to move pages for new users (so, they'd have to wait a few days before this option is enabled)? ~ 22:38, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
- On that note, would it be possible to block page moves with the title "on wheels" or excessive text? MadMax 22:41, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
- OK... here's what I've done. You now have to be registered for a while before being able to move pages (I think it's 5 days, I can change that as needed), those with rollback rights, can now suppress redirects rather than an admin having to delete them later, and I've added a title blacklist, that just works on Uncyc, so you have control over adding new non-titles (the global list still applies). The blacklist needs about 15 minutes after each addition to kick in, so it's more for long-term help than during an attack, but... better than a kick in the teeth, as my mother always said. -- sannse (talk) 21:31, 28 August 2009 (UTC) (p.s. yep Mordilly... I'm a Merkin now! and lovin it!)
Do rollbacks have unlimited pagemoves, or do they still have the same pagemove limits as regular users? --Mn-z 04:48, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't change that, but I can if needed. Why not see how the current settings go, and let me know if more is needed. -- sannse (talk) 17:52, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- It appears that socky (and possibly the other rollbacks) can't suppress redirects yet for some reason. Does it time for the wiki to register that change or something? --Mn-z 18:00, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
Copyright claim FYI[edit source]
I'm having a discussion with a user who claims he has a copyright on a picture of a butt from a videogame (it seems). I went ahead an removed it from pages where it added nothing (ie, where it's hard to argue it's used as parody or satire), but not all of them, so he may come to you later, as I gave your name as a Wikia contact. Just wanted to give you a head's up.--<<>> 11:36, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
Can you blame TOR for me?[edit source]
Got a couple of borked interwiki links I can't removed. Can you ask the Poles to take a look? ~ 16:23, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Details, my friend, details. I need to know what/where/how/why before I can effectively blame anyone -- sannse (talk) 21:33, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

UnSignpost 4th September[edit source]
The newspaper that missed an issue and no-one even noticed.
Date September something-or-other, 2009 • Issue 63 • Nobody reads this bit anyway
Left alone to write the entire UnSignpost, Ape delivers sub-par, mostly self-referential issue "What happened to the signpost?" was the question on literally nobody's lips this week, as Uncyclopedia's favourite newspaper which everyone loves to read but no-one can be bothered to write for took another step on the long slow descent to obscurity. However, our intrepid hero, i.e. me, soon discovered the enormity of the task that lay ahead of him. Boxes had to be filled, interesting and thought-provoking forums had to be discovered and linked to, block logs had to be accessed and trawled for witty comments (unsuccessfully, as it turned out) and this article and presumably another one below it had to be written. "I never thought it could be this hard," Ape told himself, with sexual innuendo very much intended. "How did Gerrycheevers keep finding stuff to write about? There doesn't really seem to be much happening around here. I mean, I could start whoring my newest articles under the flimsy guise of self-referential irony, but that would be shit really. Who wants to see that? Nobody, that's who." However, in the absence of anything funny or clever to say, our hero, (who is gradually being revealed to be more of an anti-hero, like Alex in A Clockwork Orange, except with no sense of style) proceeded to do exactly that, shamelessly whoring two articles (which, if anything, evince his decline as a comedy writer), eliciting a universal chorus of groans and boos from all who had the misfortune to read it. An appeal to the Uncyclopedia community Seriously guys, if you don't want any more shitty issues like this I'm going to need help, or else the signpost is going to die like all the other well-intentioned projects that nobody bothers with. What we need is:
Thank you for your time. |

- I think the pagemove limit could get annoying if you ran into a vandal using multiple accounts. Would there be a way to set the rollback pagemove limit higher, yet still be limited? (Like 2-3 times that of a regular user or so.) --Mn-z 20:57, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

- I did ;) just in a general way of leaving the possibility on my talk page.

Uncyclopedians Continue Hostile Takeover of Wikimedia
This week, noted user Electrified mocha chinchilla got a short but somewhat hostile reply from the lackluster Wikimedia Foundation. After telling truths to the company such as taking control over Wikipedia and how Uncyclopedia is 104% fact, a Wikipedia Foundation employee under the subtle disguise "Philippe XXXXXX" replied in a manner that was both honorable and robust. Confounded by the foundation's kindness, e|m|c quickly replied with a rebuttal seeming more like a terrorist threat like a thank-you note. Even though Uncyclopedia has not managed to even get off Wikia's back, some users have a bright, world domination-esque outlook to the future. UFFL Update Week One of the UFFL season was full of thrills, spills, birth control pills, and shitty rhymes. The John Curry All-Stars bested The Oklahoma City Storm 93.08 – 74.54 after a sub-par performance from offensive giants Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Turner on the Storm side, not to mention the controversial decision to sit starting quarterback and country singer enthusiast Tony Romo. The appropriately-named Dudes edged Cheddar’s Doritians 98.42 – 96.06, despite the fact that Dudes manager Frank Zappa was high the entirety of the game. Injuries to key Doritian players Donovan McNabb and LaDainian Tomlinson made the loss extra-hard to swallow. The not-so-domestic Domestic Team Name blew out DiBiase’s Millions 112.82 – 67.16—a loss which caused Millions’ manager Woody Onfire to question the not-sucking-ness of his team publicly. Finally, Sternensteinenstine annihilated the ironically-named Winnerz 123.92 – 0.00 after Winnerz manager Al Davis forgot to edit his team’s starting roster for the week. The lop-sided German victory was aided by a career day from Saints’ quarterback Drew Brees and round-the-clock Luftwaffe air cover in conjunction with concentrated armored thrusts at the enemy’s flanks. Lead Editor Returns to UnSignpost Office, Demands to Know Whereabouts of Bundt Cake This week Active Lead UnSignpost editor Gerrycheevers stumbled back onto the Uncyclopedia scene amid much celebration and hooplah. While settling down to his usual routine of getting UnSignpost issues polished off stylishly late, he noticed that his office at the UnSignpost wing of Uncyclopedia had been raided, and his delicious bundt cake had been mercilessly stolen. Gerry immediately declared a halt to the UnSignpost presses, which involved Sockpuppet of an unregistered user using several pints of holy water and a rubber chicken, in order to plea for the safe return of his tasty cake. Please, mystery pastry thief, don't leave Mr. Cheevers cakeless and hungry! |

- It's the site 'skin'. That is, the choice of colour, layout, etc. which gives Uncyclopedia the same look at Wikipedia. The rest of Wikia uses "Monaco", which is somewhat more shiny. You can see it by changing your skin choice in you preferences. (actually, the Uncyclopedia skin is called "uncyclopedia", and is based on monobook rather than identical to it. And someone switched the book for a flower a while back... but anyway, you get the idea) -- sannse (talk) 18:01, September 24, 2009 (UTC)

Telling You Stuff You Already Knew, But With Different Words!
September 24th, 2009 • Issue 65 • The Newspaper that Oscar Wilde Might Read Were He Still Among the Living
UnSignpost Subscriber List Trimmed; Remaining Subscribers Urged to Archive Issues, Settle Outstanding Bills, Refrain from Tipping Paperbots This week, the hideously long UnSignpost subscription list was hacked down even further than The Woodburninator and others apparently hacked it down several months ago. This has resulted in a mass decline in the number of useless edits performed by paperbots and brave, bored souls who have nothing better to do than manually edit dozens of userpages on a weekly basis. The dregs that were cast off included those who have not registered an edit in six months, those who are permanently banned or close to it, and those with large, scary dogs that prevent paperbots from completing their routes unchewed. The remaining faithful readers are asked to archive their talk pages if they are excessively long due to many hilarious editions of the UnSignpost, as paperbots are slowed down by the large load times of such pages, and paper-delivering users are likely to be distracted by uproarious back issues. Subscribers are also reminded that the monthly fee for talkpage delivery is seven Uncyclopedia credits. Extremely outdated Uncyclopedia currency, such as Yoinxx, will be subject to exceedingly unfair conversion rates. On a final note, readers are implored to avoid tipping paperbots, as it seems any sort of regular income tends to give robots inklings of sentience, and the last thing we need is Fnoodle organizing the paperbots into a rudimentary union again. UFFL Update It was another exciting week of UFFL action this past Sunday, with 75% of the league’s games qualifying as “blowouts.” Sternensteinenstine bested DiBiase’s Millions 161.54 to 78.94, with the one-two Nazi punch of Drew Brees and Chris Johnson outscoring their helpless opponents alone. The John Curry All Stars had similar success with the Philip Rivers-Marques Colston-Frank Gore combination, and knocked out Cheddar’s Doritians 123.74 to 71.64 in the fourth round. The bout between Domestic Team Name and Oklahoma City Storm went the distance, with Domestic “Team” Name coming away with the split decision 78.14 to 77.28. Finally, Frankreich “The Dude” Zappino demolished his opponent 126.42 to 0.00 in a spectacular first round knockout due to the fact that LL was once again unable to select his starting roster.

More possible sockpuppetry[edit source]
I'm not sure where sockpuppetry reports are supposed to go, but I see such a report a couple of sections higher up on your user talk page, so here goes...
Anyway, ArtemisFowlThe2nd (talk) – contribs (new • del) • edit-count • block (rem • list) • all logs • groups • checkuser is the suspected puppetmaster and Yukari'sBestFriend (talk) – contribs (new • del) • edit-count • block (rem • list) • all logs • groups • checkuser is the suspected sock. Neither has caused any major disruption, but both are known for poor-quality fanboyish writing on anime-related topics. The similarity of their editing interests should be obvious from their contributions; see also the revision history of this userfied article and this potential incident of VFD vote-stacking.
I am just an ordinary user, and I have no way to rule out the possibility that this is a legitimate use of an alternate account for security reasons.

The Newspaper That Replaces Analysis With Flashy Graphics!
October 1st, 2009 • Issue 66• Now With 40% More Pictures of Cats with Humorous Captions!
Users Turn to PLS to Rescue Uncyclopedia from Decay, Doom, Worstness The Eighth Semi-Annual Poo Lit Surprise Writing Competition & Brownie Bake-Off begins this Monday, October 5th when Olipro emerges from his house. If he is frightened by his shadow, writers are required to send him love letters; otherwise, writers have two weeks to squeeze all of the humor they can out of their mostly insignificant humor glands. This year's categories include Best Article, Best Illustrated Article, Best Kanye Joke, and Best Rewrite. The list of judges includes both esteemed Uncyclopedia veterans and former PLS winners; they will be sequestered in a two-star hotel for the duration of the competition in order to ensure the most convenient environment for receiving bribes. This year's PLS Master of Ceremonies and Executive in Charge of Parking, Modusoperandi, humbly expressed optimism when asked about the quality of this installment: "This Poo Lit will be the Greatest PLS ever," said Mr. Operandi exclusively. "Anyone who says otherwise is as much of a liar as they are dumb, and they are plenty dumb. Ergo, they are also plenty liar. That made more sense in my head." Other users, who wished to remain anonymous since they regularly read the unflattering commentary often associated with being quoted in the UnSignpost, expressed hope that the PLS would revive the life-support-laden VFH and also stimulate the lagging Uncyclopedia economy. Users Agree: 'Uncyclopedia is the Boringest' This week, Uncyclopedia users denounced the recent lack of activity on the wiki. Necropaxx initiated the conversation, noting that activity on VFH, similar to the pants of the 'hip' crowd, has dropped to unacceptably low levels. Other users have responded, and the general consensus does indeed seem to be that overall, the site's quality has dropped below acceptable levels. Not since June '07, November '07, February '08, August '08, December '08, March '09, and May '09 has Uncyclopedia seen such a blatant claim that the entire website will imminently burst into a ball of some sort, with 'flame' being the most likely sort of ball. Trusted UnSignpost undercover investigative reporter, DogNewspaper (pictured), infiltrated one such group of doom-saying users in order to obtain some first-hand declarations of the impending death throes of the wiki. "Yeah, with the number of quality articles readily available, I'd give Uncyclopedia two months at the most until it is absorbed into another humor website," said one user. Further commentary from this group of users was unavailable, as undercover investigative reporter DogNewspaper's cover was at this point compromised, as his unwavering loyalty to Uncyclopedia caused him to seize the infidel user's lower leg in his mouth and shake his head viciously. Please stay with the UnSignpost for up-to-the-week coverage of the impending(?) death of Uncyclopedia. |

And on the topic, is there anything we can do to allow transfer of content between us and the foreign language wikis despite our mutually incompatible licenses? The only thing I can think of is to request that each user re-license their contributions under of (CC-BY-SA) license. --Mn-z 14:29, October 6, 2009 (UTC)
- See my response on the forum. I think we're overdoing ourselves, again. ~

UnSignpost Sometime October 2009[edit source]
May contain traces of humor!
October 8th, 2009 • Issue 67• Good things come to those who wait. So does the UnSignpost.
The End is Nigh... Once Again Yes, it's that time of the year again. Despite the hopes of many, Poo Lit Surprise did not instantly revive Uncyclopedia. We are doomed! DOOMED! But how did the great Uncyclopedia become such a wasteland, one may ask. It's all a big conspiracy, I tell you! All perpetrated by a mysterious figure, known only by the initials R.L. Perseveringly, this entity has claimed the lives of various Uncyclopedians, among them such users as SysRq, Cajek, YesTimeToEdit, Siddhartha-Wolf and most recently it seems R.L. has even gotten its grips on our own UnSignpost editor Gerrycheevers. When confronted with the issue, noted favourite Jew and Zionist ruler Mordillo barely managed to exclusively tell us the following "I tell you Socky, I'd be happy to comment about our IMPENDING DOOM but I'm too busy packing. Another time maybe? HEY! MOTHERFUCKER! EASY WITH THE VASE! THAT'S FRAGILE! Sorry Sock, gotta scram, the movers are breaking my stuff. NO! DROP THAT BAN HAMMER! DROP IT I SAID!" Expert in things that suck (no pun intended), Optimuschris, was quoted saying "Uncyclopedia hasn't been cool since 08. Ban 09's." In conclusion, UN:N. UFFL Update The previous two weeks of the UFFL action have been filled with more intrigue than a mediocre James Bond movie. Two touchdownless games by Saints’ quarterback Drew Brees cost Sternensteinenstine a win Week 3, though the team rebounded Week 4 and currently holds a solid second-place standing in the hyper-competitive UFFL. A resurgent Tom Brady and a balanced roster has led Domestic Team Name to two wins over the same period, as well as an unblemished 4-0 record. The Dudes’ neglect to change their starting roster cost them a win in Week 4, knocking the former top dogs down to a less-than-remarkable 4th place. The John Curry All-Stars have been hampered by the loss of Frank Gore, and lost last week to a rejuvenated Dibiase’s Millions that were led by a solid Aaron Rodgers-Matt Forte NFC North attack. A soft schedule has helped Oklahoma City Storm to a respectable 2-2 record, while the winless Doritians continue to struggle. Finally, The Winnerz put up mounds of points as Peyton Manning passed his way to his fourth consecutive 300-yard game…or at least would have if The Winnerz could figure out how to log in to Yahoo! and edit their roster. In a look ahead to next week’s games, Sternensteinenstine and the John Curry All-Stars will have to overcome bye weeks for both their starting quarterbacks to maintain their positions near the top of the league as they face off; Oklahoma City Storm looks to earn an easy win against a bye-week-ravaged Dibiase’s Millions; The Dudes seek redemption as they attempt to reclaim their No. 1 position against the undefeated Domestic Team Name; and the league’s bottom-dwelling, shit-eating, dog-fucking last-placers The Winnerz and Cheddar’s Doritians both search for their first wins of the season.

Rollback[edit source]
Can I have Rollback rights? • FreddIs Great In Bedd • •

- You're normally supposed to ask your friendly neighborhood bureaucrats, but a quick glance at your contribs shows that you don't do anything that would require rollback rights. --CharitwoTalk 19:18, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
- Modusoperandi told me to talk to sannse.. and correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Rollback about easily reverting vandalism and restoring pages to early versions? My latest contributions show nothing of this because, you know, the last couple of months were a bit busy for me; back to college, settling down and so forth. But I'm ready to be a rollbacker, now.. I guess. But if you aren't ok with it, then fine, I'll just get on with my life. • FreddIs Great In Bedd •

Search Changes[edit source]
It appears the search engine now works differently and some users liked it better the old way. --Mn-z 02:57, October 19, 2009 (UTC)
- They always do.
- Lucene search has been on the way for a while, as you will know from keeping an eye on the Wikia staff blog... right? It's the same search back-end that Wikipedia now uses - partly because it actually gives results, and partly because it is a lot less server heavy. The old Mediawiki search doesn't scale, and doesn't give as good results. Please let us know of any bad results or bugs you see via Special:Contact. Thanks -- sannse (talk) 02:03, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, um. I can see how you'd want to switch over to a less server heavy search, but can't this Lucene Search be altered so it separates title matches from page matches and shows the bytes of the page? I think there are some serious benefits to such an approach. —Sir Socky

GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:50, 25 October 2009
- Titles are weighted, so the title matches should show first on the search results. And no, I can't see the bytes part being added, we need to make the search work for the most people possible and that's not information your average newbie wants or needs (also remember this search is on all wikis on Wikia, not just uncyc) -- sannse (talk) 16:12, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

UnSignpost 22nd 23rd October 2009[edit source]
The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
October 22nd, 2009 • Issue 68 • Semi-endorsed by Journalism Union #448
Invisible UnSignpost Issue Confuses, Annoys Readers As a gag/publicity stunt/desperate cry for attention, last week's edition of Uncyclopedia's most beloved and 3rd most cherished newspaper, the UnSignpost, was rendered invisible before being delivered. After the issue was wrapped up, UnSignpost contributing editors Dexter111344 and Socky used their inherent superpowers or something to cause the issue to not appear on user's talk pages when delivered. In addition, further enhancements rendered each user's talk page history to not be altered upon delivery, thus completely erasing any evidence that the issue was delivered or even existed at any point. Feedback thus far has been overwhelmingly negative, with angry subscribers sending death threats and exploding telegrams to the UnSignpost office for the past four days. UnSignpost Executive in Charge of Sniffing Mail, Dognewspaper (pictured), luckily suffered only minor burns and a singed tail. The UnSignpost staff would like to formally apologize to its readers, and assure them that each subsequent issue will be at least partly visible. Poo Lit Report After giving the writers time to work on their pieces, and Modus taking time enjoying the disqualification of entries for failing the mandatory steroids screening, the 8nd Edition of the Poo Lit Surprise is in its final stages – judging. This is the time where writers who entered play with their genitals out of anxiety and nervousness, and attempt to bribe the judges with sexual favors and pie. This PLS saw a great number of entries in the Best Alternate Namespace Article. The reasoning for this, some believe, is that everyone is utterly bat fuck insane and forgot how to write regular namespace articles. Despite being held just prior to the Turkey Day Ball and Conservation Week, the turn-out was overall not bad; Modus' corporate-funded campaign for the PLS is primarily to blame for this. Speaking of corporate funding, it was indicated that there will be prize money for this edition of the PLS despite Wikia's refusal to hook a brotha' up. All irrevocable blame for Wikia's unfortunate decision has been directed at Sannse for good reason. UPDATE Winners have been announced; congratulations to all of them. According to Modusoperandi, the next PLS is expected to be held, "When the next guy remembers it's late." Fantasy Football Update Things are really heating up in the UFFL as midseason nears, and Week Six’s storylines were of upset, domination, and redemption. Led by Tom Brady, the always-solid In a look ahead to next week’s games, Sternensteinenstine looks to stay atop the UFFL rankings against a resurgent Cheddar’s Doritians, Domestic Team Name looks to retake the #1 spot against a very solid John Curry All-Stars, Oklahoma City Storm and The Dudes face off, and the bottom-dwelling dog-fucking last-placers Dibiase’s Millions and The Winnerz will look to see which one of them is shittier. Standings:
IT'S OVER 25,000!!! Maybe. Uncyclopedia just might make the mark of 25,000 articles. Sometime soon. Maybe tomorrow. Surely it's yet another milestone that only puts us that much more ahead of Wikipedia, Conservapedia, and Das Kapital combined in content. However, thoughts from the rest of the community on what this means for our beloved wiki have been varyingly expressed as joyous, apathetic, dismal, and downright nonsensical. "But even with 25,000 articles, we're still 65,000 short of being strong enough to fight Captain Ginyu," says the attractive Guildensternenstein as we stop him on his way to Planet Namek. Others offer real conversation of a possible reskin and doubts that the mark will actually be reached with Forest Fire Week probably happening sometime. Maybe. Discussion started by an attention whore in Miniluv over the Welcoming Committee and their welcoming template(s) has sparked the particular attention of many Uncyclopedians, most of whom by their own admission have never read the welcoming template, HTBFANJS, BGBU, any of the other things the welcome template advises new users to read, or have heard of Uncyclopedia. The recent round of QQ'ing and debating over the alleged poor quality of Uncyclopedia, as highlighted in the last edition's piece about the end being nigh and a Poo Lit Surprise nomination, can come to a close. It is this writer's observation that Uncyclopedia is the worst because nobody cares about editing guides which make confusing acronyms. Obvious correlation is obvious. On our final stop in our stroll through the Village Dump, to your left you will see that a n00b was just kidding, jeez, and to your right you will see that Rockstar Games reads Uncyclopedia. In the former, users urge the poor fellow to read HTBFANJS and BGBU (the same ones that they probably haven't read). If anything is to be drawn from this, it is that true editing comes from within. Or something. |

Spam Filter[edit source]
Hi there, sannse. I don't know who to talk to about this, but seeing as we apparently have a spam filter that has flown in under my nose, I do know who to blame. Those nice people in suits that you work for over in Europe. The issue I'm having is that in two pages that I have had sitting in my userspace for quite some time, I'm unable to edit due to the fact that they already contained a string of four "<big>" tags, which is apparently one more than this miracle filter allows. I refuse to compromise the history of the conversations in my talk archives for this. Furthermore, there's evidently been problems with the filter cutting out terms like "S uper V iagra" (which I had to space out because the spam filter wouldn't let me type it on this page! That was infuriating!), and locking out users from editing pages that already contain terms offending to the filter. Please tell the person whose idea it was to implement this into a humor wiki to kindly remove it, and subsequently penetrate themselves with it. Thank you. Yours truly, RAHB 04:37, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for your oh so kind and polite note my friend.
- The spam filter has been in place for years, and multiple "big"s have been in place since that tag was abused by people on multiple wikis. See this conversation for a past reference to this, and how to bypass it. We've tried removing this from the filter, but when we do we get more people abusing it. And please don't blame my colleagues, it's the community team that ads terms to the filter - so feel free to blame me for working to keep Uncyc and other wikis free of as much spam and vandalism as possible. Love ya -- sannse (talk) 20:52, October 27, 2009 (UTC) (and a little bit of sannse (talk) for the bits where I'm really getting grumpy)
It is the day of USP love, Valentine’s Day[edit source]

Returning users and Grammar Nazis Recently, we have seen the return of many passionate members of the community, which have seen the return of Uncyc daylight upon arrival. Was that a run-on sentence? Idk... anywaaaays. So the point is, Ljlego has returned recently, and so has Dawg. I bring these two in particular because Ljlego and Dawg have revealed over the IRC hints that they wish to stay here, on the new site. Ljlego was looking to get an Uncyclopedia cloak, while Dawg just plain out said he was interested in staying. To sum it up, yay more returnees! Go Jesus! Oh yeah, and you can join the Proofreading Service. This is basically the Grammar nazi equivalent to the Poopsmith Lounge... only less dead and slightly more squeamish. The old site wants us... sexually?! Lol, no. Just kidding. But hasn't it come to most people's minds that maybe, possibly the Wikia's members are curious to what is going on in here (Bitches, alcohol, and partying) and might come sneak by? Well, first off Chief banned BB on the Wikia and set up a spam account here. BB found out that Chief was the account owner of the vandalizing account and banned both of them. Though Lyrithya unbanned Chief. W.O.W. Gay. Keep your eyes open, boys. Or not, it's not like they mean harm. What do you take me for? Pulixer? lol no. Great Hall of Shame Updating of '13 Okay, so most of you ungrateful bastards won't update your Hall of Shame entrees yourself. Well, did you even see that forum link? It even said "SIGN HERE FUCKERS". Yeah, that's right. Please, go update your Hall of Shame entrees and/or help me update those who don't update their HOS entrees. Man, that was pretty awkwardly worded. However, still. This task isn't easy. Much help is needed. USE THE EFFIN' FORCE, I KNOW THERE'S JEDIS WITHIN OUR RANKS!! BUT SERIOUSLY.

Crikey! It’s a rare, wild UnSignpost![edit source]
83.54% more reliable than The Daily Mail
February 21st, 2013 • Issue 187 • Burn.
Cold War Update 3: Drama!
Well, this one's a bit late, but still important. Illogicopedia has considered moving their hosting over to the Free Uncyc servers, netting a nifty anti-Wikia deal. As well, a series of "hate bans" occurred recently, involving ChiefjusticeDS banning people on the Wikia site, and a sockpuppet of his being banned on this site. More info will be available when I find out. Cheers! Robot invasion
It has come to the attention of this fine news source that Uncyclopedia is being overrun by robots, displacing tens of writers on a daily basis. After we realized they might be useful (in spite of lacking a sense of humour and soul), we captured and trained a couple of them to deliver the UnSignpost for us. To appease these ravenous automatons, we were forced to switch to categories from our archaic signup list. You may have noticed a new template on your page, which should be placed on the page you wish to have your UnSignpost delivered, where it will be dropped at the bottom (as always). Please refrain from petting the robots, as they may bite (we're working on that with them). One of these 'bots (as we call them) was easier to train and has assisted us in huffing literally hundreds of old (pre-2011) User: and User_talk: pages for anonymous IPs. They're now working deep in the bowels of the site removing crap categories and fixing broken stuff. The one attached to Dawg has the painfully unfunny name of DawgBot, and the one attached to Sir Peasewhizz is suspiciously not a bot at all. He's the... the... OH GOD NO. HE'S THE SLENDERMAN. AHHHHH!!! DEATH TO BRONIES IS AT HAND? OR IS IT THE DEATH OF THE INTERNET??? Well, I was cracking codes in wingdings this day and I found the message at the right when I typed "MY LITTLE PONY: FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC" In ALL CAPS in wingdings. This magnificent message, according to our codecrackers, might mean that the death of the Internet is caused by bronies. This message starts with a bomb and a Jew star, in which the bomb represents October 10, 2010 while the Jew star represents the money-makers of Hasbro. Then it is followed by a sadface, a palm, 2 snowflakes, another sadface, and a finger pointing left. This might mean that 2010 is the winter and sorrow of all franchises, caused by cooperate corruption and...bronies. Both can be read as: "In the day of the bomb, all franchises will be corrupted". The third sentence is pointed flag, flag, skull, Jew star and computer, which might represent the death and conquest of the internet. The fourth sentence is a finger pointing right, a sun, a finger pointing left, a skull, a thumbs down finger, a water drip, a palm, and a pointed flag. This possibly represents that a dawn of death will rise, all the straight men will fight, and finally the dawn of death will make them bleed. The fifth sentence is palm, water drip, bomb, two fingers, one finger, palm and thumbs up. This might represent that we are currently on a countdown to demise. HOW TERRIBLE IS THAT?????? Fortunately, there is good news. The good news is that the same might be used against the bronies, and if this happens it might read as: The bomb had set by the Jews and franchises are corrupted. But now, we will conquer over the terror. they might fight the dawn but they will bleed. The bronies are on the countdown to demise. This is a two sided prophecy. nevertheless, The war against faggotry will eventually prevail. Aleister snags the Hall of Shame lead with 67 features! As of February 19th of 2013, Aleister (formerly Aleister in Chains) leads the Hall of Shame with 67 features. Which article robbed Soggy's and Aleister's tie at 66 features? None other than probably the most boring material to work with, but it happened; UnBooks Biography:The guy who invented soap! Go read it! And also, you must go read the rest Aleister's features. Or else. You can access them here. Remember, we're watching!

Surprise, Motherfucker, USP[edit source]
The Only Newspaper That Is Not Controlled By The Cabal Who Are You What Are You Doi- AAAAHHHHH
February 28th, 2013 • Issue 188 • When life gives you lemons, sue for damages.
We Here At The UnSignpost™ bear a strong commitment to accuracy—in fact, the UnSignpost is required by law to print at least one truthful statement per issue in order to retain our status as a tax-exempt organic fish-cannery.[1] We believe that our track record speaks for itself: in our nearly 45 months of existence, the USP has printed only 243 retractions, a full 20% of which were not ordered by a court. It was with some consternation, therefore, that we discovered a massive error in our reporting. In recent weeks, former USP editor and general mensch ChiefjusticeDS was repeatedly identified by the UnSignpost as being a "putrid puddle of poodle puke", and also as having been "perm-banned" for vandalizing the new Uncyclopedia with sockpuppet accounts. While the first statement remains an object of controversy, the second one could not be further from the truth. ChiefjusticeDS is one of the least-likely vandals in the history of Uncyclopedia; furthermore, our research indicates that he is not actually aware of the new Uncyclopedia, and while his lawyers apparently are, he is currently blithely executing his sysop duties on the old site, much as a mother elephant seal mournfully attends the corpse of her crushed pup. We would like to take this opportunity to apologize profusely for any inconveniences this erroneous reporting has caused anyone. While we have traced the original mistake to confusion on the part of our correspondents (who are possessed of more eagerness than brains), the final blame must lie at the feet of our fact-checking department; we intend to take them thoroughly to task for their laziness and inattention, just as soon as we figure out how to fire people who don't exist. On a related note, we would like to issue the following corrections and clarifications:
Upcoming PLS So, even if it has felt like a long past couple of weeks, bring your spirits up! We can help, because there is the PLS coming up soon. So yeah, I know this is short. But it's longer than you. HA! HA! HA! No, but seriously. Consider doing the Poo Lit Surprise or ELSE. Ask Zombiebaron
