You are presented with one (1) puppy for your in-depth review of NASA. CAUTION: Puppy may contain traces of peanuts. For external use only. Avoid using puppy near open flames. Always use goggles and protective gloves when handling puppy directly. If puppy begins to smoke, seek shelter and cover head. |
thanks for the great review, syc. this was a total rewrite that i read over so many times that the words lost all meaning, so all of your insight was extremely helpful. we will continue to differ on minor issues like TOC (this might be one where i'll add it if i can get it to look right by rearranging sections like you suggested) and image placement (you're also causing me to second guess myself on this one, as you bring up valid points to back up your argument). anyway, thanks again, and keep up the good work, you'll be on the top 5 in no time! also, great work on France! 15:12, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
Ouch!
Style mine writing have terrible? Ha! Anyway, thanks for your review. I don't really agree with what you said, but I respect your opinion. Thanks for reviewing. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} 16:29, Oct 9

UnSignpost: October 10th 2008
The Newspaper That Openly Admits Its Liberal And Conservative Biases!
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. |

why?
Why did you undo my edit of moby? explain yourself.
TELECOMEWAN 15:07, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
- I had suspected vandalism, there was not much left of the article, as per your revision of it. Should you be keen to redo the article it would be far better to create User:TELECOMEWAN/Moby - You can copy the content of the old one over and re-work it, when it finished you can then paste over the current Moby article. If you would like to keep it as it is I can undo my revert and leave you to it:) — Sir Sycamore (talk) 15:13, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
re:Hello.
hey man thanks for the welcome. i have only been here for a bit but i can tell i like this wiki. it is very funny. - corn 17:02, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
Removed How to Shoop Da Woop ICU Tag
Ok, so, I pretty much went through and fixed all the spelling/grammar/funny/incoherence/ problems that the article had. I also added pictures that make sense and are pretty funny. Paragraphing is better now, and over all ,the article pretty much makes sense now. So, In Short, I feel that it was ok to remove the ICU tag. If you havea problem with this, you are welcome to read the article over again and decide whether or not it should still be in the ICU. --Kowaru 02:34, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Preferably let an admin deal with ICUs in future. Yeah it looks alright, I moved it to: HowTo:Shoop Da Woop. Sorted:)? — Sir Sycamore (talk) 08:29, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Ya, thanks for the move, I was gonna do it myself, but umm, I was too lazy/afraid the article would asplode. Oh, and is says in the ICU thing that you can remove the tag yourself if you see fit? Is that still allowed, or is it understood that you should just let the admin deal with it? --Kowaru 18:16, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
What you said on my talk page.
After 3 hours of trying to talk to you, and failing, I have no idea whether the problem with one of the sigs is the height or the length. As for the categories, I gave up clearing them when TKF blocked me. JudgeZarbi TALK 11:01, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Err...Zarbi, I'd remove that block me part of my sig. Might entice other trigger happy admins to click it. ~ 11:09, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- The other sig is a bit massive:) - The code on mine for size is the easiest: Sycasig. With reagrds to the other stuff (you said you wanted to have go with some more of the quality control stuff?), chaeck out these, UN:WYCD and UN:PEE - the last one is really needed at the momemt, check out he guidelines, a ken chap such as yourslef will take to it like water. Have fun:) — Sir Sycamore (talk) 11:11, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Mordillo: Right...if I have to...
- Sycamore, I'll do my best at UN:PEE, but don't complain when I get banned for doing that too. I'll resize my sig too. JudgeZarbi TALK 11:19, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'd drop TKF a line about it. Not sure what the reason was, but must have been good. After all, the cabal does not make mistakes. Neither does it exist. ~ 11:21, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- I got banned for "using pretty bad judgement on VFD" apparently. So when I try to help, all I get is a ban. JudgeZarbi TALK 11:23, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Err...Zarbi, I'd remove that block me part of my sig. Might entice other trigger happy admins to click it. ~ 11:09, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Take it easy, remember you're just starting out, you will make mistakes. I still hash things up all the time;) I think TKF may have been "Excessive" on many of his bans lately — Sir Sycamore (talk) 11:28, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'll try to keep that in mind. JudgeZarbi TALK 11:35, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
I've done my first pee review! What do you think? JudgeZarbi TALK 11:51, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Top notch for a first one:), it could proababy be more "in depth" i.e. you got hrough the sections picking out any weaker points - don't be afraid to be a bit critical (but always fair), they like anything take a few to get into the swing of it if you know what I mean:) — Sir Sycamore (talk) 15:51, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I think I'll keep to doing one a day for now while I get used to it. JudgeZarbi TALK 20:24, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Three things
1. Are you a sysop?
2. Is there a faster way to make subpages than by making a link and then creating them?
3. how do I make my signature look like TealwispBitch me out?
[[User:Tealwisp|Tealwisp]]<small>[[User Talk:Tealwisp|Bitch me out]]</small> 01:09, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
1. No
2. Not that I know of - you can add a /artcile subpage title on your browser as well (especially from your userpage)
3. You need to create a subpage and set it as your sig: Firstly create User:Tealwisp/sig and add the code of you sig to the page, (remebr to save). From there go to My Preferences (at the top of your screen) and about a quater of the way down there is an empty box and a title of "signatures" at this code into the empty space {{SUBST:nosubst|user:Tealwisp/sig}}. Then click below that on Raw Signature - and click Save Preferences at the the bottom. From then on every time you click the four ~~~~ your sig will appear with time stamp:) — Sir Sycamore (talk) 07:10, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
plz help me
srry im just another helpless n008. Can you help me with hyperlinks? Alexander the Great 13:24, 14 October 2008 (UTC) user:Alexander the Great
Hi there, There are two main kinds of linking you can do the first one is what i think you asked for:
- *[http://www.tonyvisconti.com/ Tony Visconti]
=
Or just for a normal link within the site you do:
- [[Tony Visconti]]
=
Is that OK? — Sir Sycamore (talk) 16:48, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Well, I mean how to change the title of the hyperlink while maintaning the same link? I'm still stuck...... Alexander the Great 09:49, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
- mmm... Do you mean moving the article to a different title or do you mean changing the title at the top so it looks like something else, or do you mean having links that are differnt to their titles as in [[User:Sycamore|Cool]] = Cool, or do you mena soething else entirely?--Sycamore (Talk) 17:08, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Little Sister
I'm working on the little sister article, and I think I've got something. It's incomplete, but that's because I can't decide between two possible outcomes.--WhySoSerious 21:19, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- Its quite funny already - I think it could do with an image, and you use really short sections, its an idea to use subsectiosn or a good paing of paragraphs than to have one/two sentence sections - You have not been specific about the outcomes you are thinking of, so I'll let you get back to me on that one:)--Sycamore (Talk) 08:59, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the review, man!
I went along with what you said and added an alternate ending. What do you think? --Kglee 02:06, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
- Looks much better, its got the right pace thoroughout now - good stuff here:)--Sycamore (Talk) 08:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

The Newspaper That Replaces Analysis With Flashy Graphics!
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.

Ok so I'm very new to this and I'm not sure I've done anything properly...
I find this wiki fascinating and would like to be a part of it. I've read most of the beginner's guide stuff and I understand most. I'm afraid I'm not really computer savvy but I love to write and I like funny. The main things I'm looking for are how not to get kicked out or banned or voted off, etc. I added some things to the unstory and I hope they are funny. Sorry, but I feel like I've wasted your time here, but it would waste mine too if I deleted this so I'll just say thanks and good day.Lord Calvert 21:19, 21 October 2008 (UTC)Lord Calvert
I am an ass. Lord Calvert 21:22, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
- Well... I'm sure you're not as big an ass as me, so you have work to do there. As far as other stuff goes I doubt you will be banned for the reasons you are suggesting - the reasons for banning tend to be causing harm to pages or users, which you have not done. I understand that it is hard staring up here, and it took me some time to get the hang of the site. Give it it time and patience and you'll be doing alright - If theres anything else, I'm often about to help:)--Sycamore (Talk) 11:53, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
