UnSignpost: September 11th, 2008[edit source]
The Newspaper That Contains Neither News Nor Paper.
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. |

UU in my country? It's More Likely Then You Think![edit source]
You... In Oz?
Well, I suppose it's time someone cleaned the Sewers. Make sure you get a taste of proper beer, and get to a proper beach. All's well that ends at a beach or pub. Enjoy your stay in the Land Down Under. Don't get yourself lost, and follow Rule 2.
- I got to Whitehaven Beach - can't much properer than that, right? As to "proper" beer - I wouldn't know one if it was poured all over me. I'm a whisky man.

UnSignpost: October 3rd, 2008[edit source]
The Free Newspaper Only Two People Started Out Editing, But Now They Want Nothing To Do With!
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 Newspaper 4 out of 5 Dentists Agree On!
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. |

How can I get 100% on User:Cajek/Pee? — Sir Sycamore (talk) 17:47, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Urination[edit source]
Thanks for the compliment on my pee review efforts...I don't seek out recognition, though. People put templates on my talk page -- in appreciation, I guess -- but it's just that once I get writing about an article a sort of motor-mouth thing gets going and I end up writing quite a lot. It's not an ego-trip; the review just kind of grows like a mushroom. Maggots and all. But it's very, very difficult to really affect someone's writing style, I think. It's too personal. It's like offering advice on the way they chew. Or on their style of kissing. I suspect that the best an advisor can hope for is that if the writer keeps working then a few years later one small bit of your advice will be marginally helpful. In the matter of personal creativity one can only really wish the writer good luck. ----OEJ 01:01, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

- Would love to. But possibly not soon enough - I have a very busy weekend piled up in front of me. I'm grabbing a quick ten minutes of laptop time while Mrs UU goes through her ablutions, and then all hell will break loose! (DIY, furniture shopping, in-laws over for dinner, utterly riveting weekend, need I say more?) So I'll get back to you when I have half an hour to call my own, if that's cool? That said, I did have a quick look through and utterly, utterly love the idea. One quick question: which is worse, the phrase "here's one you all know and love", or the phrase "I'd like to play something I've been writing myself"? Anyhow, must dash! --UU - natter 08:57, Oct 18
- I'd like to awkwardly pop in and say that "I'd like to play something I've been writing myself" is considerably worse. Because then you feel bad when it's terrible and you're pretending not to grimace in pain. --Mr. Monkey Pant-hoot here. 19:55, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

You're being a HUGE ASS. JUST THIS HUUUUUGE ASS!!![edit source]
It's true! Anyway, I've gotten a new idea on how to do reviews. Observe how I review Proxima Centauri's article: Proxima Centauri and the aliens of Porrila/review. • <21:19 Oct 19, 2008>
When I'm done, you guys could add comments too! It could be a collaboration/review! • <21:35 Oct 19, 2008>
- Is <comment> a real HTML tag? <comment>I wonder...</comment> – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 21:36 Oct 19, 2008
This is a fascinating idea. I'd like to extend this idea a bit by suggesting that a new CSS class be created called "comment" or whatever. It would be invisible to everyone except users with a certain addition to their CSS or JS, and one could click a "show/hide comments" button. This wouldn't just be a tool for reviewers but for anyone stopping by who wants to leave a comment. Therefore it would allow non-pee-reviewers to leave comments about what works and what doesn't (perhaps in different colors) and it allows pee reviewers to do a completely in-depth review! – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 21:44 Oct 19, 2008
- That would be the next step in revolutionizing reviews. So far, I really prefer just leaving comments on a seperate page, but if you can figure out how to add comments somehow... yeah... • <21:49 Oct 19, 2008>
- It is a very interesting idea. I think it would only work for some articles - formatting-intensive ones, those with multiple pages, ones with multiple random lines (can't think who'd write ones like that) and so forth might not work so well. But for some articles it could work very well. Certainly a good addition to a pee-er's armoury though. Mind, it'd be a bitch to check, but that's not important! --UU - natter 21:51, Oct 19
- Maybe I should be more specific.
- Normal viewers: Would see nothing.
Users with a special line of JS in their JS: Would see a show/hide button in the upper left of a page, they would not see the comments or anything.
After clicking show/hide: They would see the comments. Cajek, I don't see why you couldn't still do it on a separate page - if you prefer that then sure, but this will also save you a bit of a headache with your template. But if we implement this, anyone from in-depth reviewers to casual readers could add comments really simply, and no one would see them unless they pressed a specific button, thus not breaking formatting or anything. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 21:55 Oct 19, 2008- I know where you're coming from Skull, and I like that idea. May work well in conjunction with a "normal" review as well. Gives us an extra option for trying to help people, which is always a good thing. Until someone finds a way to abuse it... --UU - natter 21:58, Oct 19
- Whoa, that would be awesome... Could it be idiot proof, like that awesome VFH autovote template? • <21:59 Oct 19, 2008>

- I guess part of the issue here is why we do reviews... It's probably easier to just change the text to how you think it should be and leave a comment to the effect of why. I guess with this it's kinda more a way to teach people... Obviously whatever is done it would need to be quick to do. A button like the <nowiki></nowiki> button would be handy... MrN 22:00, Oct 19
- There is probably something to be said for doing this type of thing in the actual article rather than a copy... I think it makes sense and is quicker to actually change small things in the actual article... Spellings, typos and the like. Rather than tying "delete this word" - just do it... You could also add new text in. I think this commenting style is useful for giving general comments or a wider scale... Such as a suggestion for something new, or how a whole section could be re-worked... If there are two copies kicking around, people might get confused as to what was what... What happens if the author does not come back for a week and the original gets edited? You can't compare diffs between different pages very easily... But... If there was only 1 copy, people who don't have the .js might not understand what is going in if they edit and see the code. In conclusion... Um... Hell knows! MrN 23:02, Oct 19
- I considered the possibility of people messing up, but then again, that's a chance you take no matter what you're doing, where or when, on a wiki. If someone messes up... revert. And yes Cajek, there's got to be a way to make this idiot-proof.
- I think it really makes a good use of the wiki system, which, as a site, we mainly don't. Other than the occasional collaborations it's mainly one user editing one page, but with this, we really could make use of being able to edit everything... by leaving comments! – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 23:19 Oct 19, 2008 =Skullthumper suxz donkeys dingles.

UnSignpost: 21 October 2008[edit source]
Better sign it.
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.

VFH thanks[edit source]
***You Are Dead*** Necropaxx's soul-felt thanks go with you for the For vote on Grim Reaper. Remember, Grim's just a normal guy with the greatest job in the world. |
Thanks for a much-welcomed vote on Grim Reaper. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} 15:14, Oct 21
- Wow, is that a proper, old-fashioned VFH thankies template? Why, I haven't seen one of those in months! Could it be to do with the weather, do you think? --UU - natter 15:16, Oct 21
Radiohead revert[edit source]
I see you recently reverted a bizarre edit on the Radiohead page. Your comment was "What? Why?" or something like that. I think what happened is somebody ran the whole article through some sort of translator that was supposed to render everything into leet. Some symbols and concepts didn't translate very well, hence all the "undefined"s.
Yes, folks. It's a new way for anonymous users to vandalize pages. Rejoice! YouFang 18:11, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, I got that much, the "What? Why?" was at 1. the fact it hadn't worked too well, and 2. the idea that someone would waste their time doing that in the first place. It's a whole new way to prove you have no life and no girlfriend. Woo! --UU - natter 18:14, Oct 21

Manly Thankyous[edit source]
Thank you for the Noob of the Month nom. I even blurted this out whilst chewing on meat during dinner with my family. Thank you for giving me the status of Fresh Stain (blurted this one out whilst on the toilet). Thank you for your encouragement and advice towards PEE reviews (I blurted this out during English. Teacher responded with "what."). And thank you for your review on Golf War (blurting this one out now). The comments were very helpful and I intend to implement your suggestions, but for the next 8 days I'm in China, so I'll do all that when I get back. Anyway, the things you mentioned were good points; when I was writing the article I was unsure of whether it would be entirely golf related, or a mixture of the two and getting away with talking about the actual combat procedures. There were a few typos, I should do better to notice them next time (then again, my school essays are usually highly populated with misspellings). I also saw what you meant by the "Golf War II" thing. Frankly, I was torn between which conflict to parody, since the current fun and games is more commonly known as the Iraq War and etc. However, the Bush Sr, war occurred in the very early 90's, a time when I was too busy being bored. I was also afraid of people thinking they could milk the humour by making a prequel of their own for my work, but whatever they want to do I guess. But you're right, I could've used the first conflict somehow in the article. I should also change words like 'tyrant' to 'golfing maverick', I should've thought about that! I would go on, but that'd result in a needless wall of text. Thanks again! --Nachlader 19:29, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, no problem, it's nice to get people joining who seem to want to do things the right way! Have fun around here. and don't worry about the typos - I'm a very, very finicky bastard (I've just corrected the spelling on my talk page while posting this reply, for instance) and could probably find flaws in perfection. That said, I really do like the article, and your style in general, so carry on doing what you are doing, and as I say, let me know when you're done, as I'd love to take another look at it! --UU - natter 10:44, Oct 24
