Important rule: there is a word. It starts with an "r" and rhymes with "cape". Don't use it on my page please, it annoys the hell out of me. Finally, as I'm that sad, I reserve the right to correct spelling on this talk page if it irks me enough. |

FYI
My comment regarding the VFH-changing-ness on the WotM page was meant as a joke, though it retrospect it probably didn't come across that way (obviously). Yes, I know I can be anal, and yes, I know that it's often counterproductive, and yes, I regret that the first thing causes the second thing, but in that case I meant it as a joke (otherwise I'd have made a forum topic). So yeah. Sorry if I'm sometimes exasperating, but you should probably realize that it legitmately bothers me when stupid little things like that aren't done (along with whether or not my fingernails are the same length). So yeah. Sorry. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 23:39, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- The first few times it comes across as a joke, but after the umpteenth time you've just trawled through all the site upkeep and maintenance stuff that you need to do as an admin and then you come across one of those comments, it can get old. You caught me on a particularly fraught day yesterday, trying to get 8 hours of work done in 5 so I could leave early to take the wife to see the midwife (I made it, and heard a tiny heartbeat - beautiful), hence the over-reaction. But yeah, we know it bothers you, you've made that abundantly clear - but this site is run by unpaid volunteers who occasionally have other things to do, so relax just a little, and enjoy writing! --UU - natter
08:09, Sep 2
- Gotcha. Hopefully your job eventually becomes less stressful for you. Also, congrats on the baby, by the way. Do you two know the due date/baby's sex etc. yet? —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 12:03, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
Project Doggystyle with the Devil
First of all, I am NOT paid by any marketing firm to do this, nor am I a diehard fan of District 9. I did watch the movie, and I found it pretty decent. However, the real fodder for my articles is the ridiculous viral marketing campaign of that movie. Not only they built a fictional corporate homepage and a fictional blog, at this year's Comic-Con, they even organized a protest outside, chanting for non-human rights! If that wasn't batfuck insane for you (chances are it wasn't), even the bathrooms in the Comic-Con barred non-humans! I just want to lampoon the over-the-top viral marketing like how Stephen Colbert travesties real bloviators and how Josef Stalin parodied 1984's Big Brother. If Jimbo Wales got to make fun of Uncyclopedia by creating Wikipedia, I should at least be given a chance to make fun of District 9.
Second, if the sheer lack of articles and/or organization is making you batfuck insane, here's my ultimate plan for Project Doggystyle with the Devil:
MNU Banned: This category is for articles that your usual oppressive corporation would not want you to read.
- MWB: MWB, or Menslike Weerstandbeweging (Afrikaans for Human Resistance Movement), is a human-supremacist organization opposed to prawn rights. I made up MWB myself, so it does not show up in the movie. However, it is a parody of Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging, an actual white-supremacist movement in South Africa. The humor of the article will be that although it claims to welcome humans of all colors, subtle cues throughout the page will reveal the implicit racism of MWB as well as its explicit anti-prawnism.
- District 9 (bootleg): This article is about District 9 as written by a prawn. The prawn is not very good at English, so the article will be really shitty grammar. Still, the prawn is able to expose horrible conditions in his home district. All other articles ending with (bootleg) will share the same characteristics.
- District 9 (MWB): Similar to the bootleg article of District 9, but with a flair of anti-prawn hatred. You guessed it: All other other articles ending with (MWB) will offend even the BNP.
- I'll think of more articles...
MNU Approved: This category is for your everyday corporate propaganda, the exact opposite of the above.
- District 9: This is an introductory article, linking to human and non-human versions of MNU's article on District 9.
- District 9 (human): This is where MNU gets to redeem itself through sugar-coating its role in the history of the prawn reservation.
- District 9 (non-human): Same as the above, with a catch. If you notice the highlight and the summary of the non-human text images, they are very similar to their English counterpart, but instead of euphemisms and nice words like "Violators will be subject to international criminal law." and "Have a nice day!", non-human text will have commanding, more explicit content like "Violators will face the death penalty." and "Strength through unity, unity through faith.". My goal is to be subtle, like the white "nothings" in the Andrei Tarkovsky article
- Still more to come...
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask, just not literally in front of the computer screen. I just want to be understood, that's all.
Your truly,
markchung – Preceding unsigned comment added by Markchung (talk • contribs)
- Wow, thanks for the in-depth response - I'll give it the attention it deserves after I get through the rest of the stuff I need to do this morning. --UU - natter
08:18, Sep 2
- Can I make a suggestion here? There seems to be a strong link to one of the concepts in here ad PCASF. In fact it sounds like a repeat of this concept, with the basis being a racial hate group - as opposed to a homosexual hate group. I'd like to see this developed on a user page before launched on the rest of the Uncyclopeadian community, because this idea will either rock, or tank. By the way, if the answer to the first question was no, too late. Pup
- I really don't like these kind of "comment" templates. They are even worse if you plan on using them on articles unrelated to district 9. In almost all cases, all they do is clutter the articles, and "canned-joke" templates always turn into tired jokes rather quickly. --Mn-z 16:52, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
- If the templates are to be used across just this series of connected articles, and they are part of the concept, then I have no real problem with that. If they start getting used on other articles not part of this series and cluttering them up, then I would have a problem. Now that the idea has been explained, I'm cool with giving it a chance, but I'll be keeping an eye on this, and may end up moving it to userspace if I think it needs more time. But as the humour has been missed more than once now, I'd suggest making it a little more obvious in places exactly what you're trying to do - if everyone misses the point, arguably the point isn't actually there, if you see what I mean. --UU - natter

UnSignpost 4th September
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. |

Bro, that's fine that you removed the floating around "2nd nom" version. The only important thing is the article, which has now been upgraded to almost-maybe feature nom quality. Perhaps you could check the latest version I did with help of Mr N recently. If you have any advice, I'm all ears. Thanks--Funnybony 19:14, September 4, 2009 (UTC)
What's Going on Under There?
You see what I did there? That's called convoloution. My internet seems ti be working properly now so I hope to be more active again. Although this past week Uncyc has been competing with Fallout 3, you played that? It's just so brilliant! Orian57 Talk 22:34 4 September 2009
- Fallout 3? I've heard good things about that, but with a kid on the way, I have zero cash available for any other stuff. New games are right out. I'm basically squeezing as much as I can out of the demos I download on the 360, gaming-wise. But I did hear the nipper's heartbeat for the first time this week, so very little can crush my mood at present! --UU - natter
08:24, Sep 6
- I've sunk at least sixty hours into it over the past six days. Which is sort of terrible I suppose, I'm not even sure how I managed that because I got halfway through season two of CSI:Miami and wrote a short story. Anyway if you can scrimp together twenty quid I highly recommend it. And then another fifty for the downloads, which I've just started buying. And I'm glad to hear that everything's alright with the baby, hope Mrs UU is doing ok too. I've heard pregnancy can become a real drag after a while. Most women don't last much longer than nine months -- which is weak, don't you think? I could clear a year, easy! Orian57 Talk
13:12 6 September 2009
- I've spent most of the last couple of days listening to an album called Chutzpah! by The Wildhearts, who are my favouritiest band ever ever ever. And looking forward to my holiday to Italy in a week and seeing the Wildhearts live shortly after we get back. If i can just get through one really tough week at work first, life should be good. Fortunately, I've ripped Chutzpah! to my mp3 player, so at least I'm armed to the teeth with weapons of ROCK! Ahem - I may be a little tired, it's past my bedtime, I think. --UU - natter
20:05, Sep 6
- lower case "I", oh you are slipping. And Italy, that sounds... foreign. I might just look into this album. Orian57 Talk
22:23 6 September 2009
- Actually, the "shift" key on my laptop is almost completely fucked - I'm making representations to my boss for a new keyboard because I nearly have to stand on it before the shift will work, and half the letters have been rubbed clean off the keys, which makes typing interesting! --UU - natter

An electronic message from the desk of ChiefjusticeDS
Hi UU, I doubt you noticed the relative decline in my PEEing. Even if you didn't, I apologise for it. The reason is that soon I will be heading to University to have an education of sorts and I am currently in the midst of making sure I don't end up on the streets, playing the guitar and offering to PEE review people's....anythings for food. The only reason for this message is to make you aware of my departure and thus to stop you thinking I am no longer pulling my weight as, from now until the Christmas holidays, my number of reviews will drop considerably. Also, thank you very much for the PEEing awards, these things help me feel like a much more worthwhile person and I will continue to review when I can.
Thanks for all your help over the last couple of months. --ChiefjusticeDS 21:10, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
- Hey Chief. The decline in your reviewing has been noticed, and we're working toward picking up the pace somewhat, but nobody here is blaming you for actually having a life. I've been thinking of getting one myself. Apparently they're quite useful. Before you do part for the undiscovered country, I'd appreciate if you would put you voice forward as the PEEr with possibly the strongest flow over the past few months toward the current RotM. I obviously have my own leanings, but I'd appreciate it if you would simply vote with your conscience. (Is it whoring to ask somebody to vote without telling them how they should vote? If it is, sorry UU, be gentle with my ban time.) Pup
- Hey Chief - of course I've noticed your contributions and the number thereof - I keep a close eye on things! But you have nothing to worry about as far as "pulling your weight" goes - very few people manage to sustain a high volume of pee for too long, real life tends to intrude in one way or another. Hell, it's stopped me doing as many reviews as I want to each month as well. I'm very grateful for the help you've given over the last few months, and wish you all the best with Uni and the stuff that really matters. Uncyc will be here if you get any spare time, and it'll be good to see you around, but it's not the most important thing: you're only a student once, so enjoy the hell out of it (I really miss being a student). --UU - natter

Deleted Article
Hello, Back when I was young, one of my articles called Used Goods was deleted due to me doing something or other. It was a couple of years ago. Is it easy to restore this and chuck it at my userspace? mAttlobster. (hello) 11:38, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
- Well, User:Matt lobster/Used Goods already existed, so I moved it to User:Matt lobster/Used Goods1. --UU - natter

- You're a star!! And ehhh...didn't realise it was already there...Thanks for your help. mAttlobster. (hello) 11:55, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
- Could I be cheeky enough to further request that Apoc.jpg and GBnowales.jpg also be restored. I assume they were deleted as nothing linked to them when the Used Goods was deleted. mAttlobster. (hello) 12:06, September 9, 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, as far as I know, deleted images can't be restored, they have to be re-uploaded. Unlike pages, which can always be restored, when an image is deleted, it's gone. And yes, I think they got caught in one of the regular unused image purges. --UU - natter

Just when you thought you had gotten rid of me I reappear with more tedious stuff for UU to help me with do for me. I would like to ask you to give me rollback ability to help me out when I'm doing maintenance and the like. I ask you only because you are the administrator I have had the most contact with (I know I live a sad, quiet Uncyc life) since my arrival and thus you can make a better decision as to my suitability. Don't feel you need to give them to me at all, apparently I'm given far too much in this life already (education, a home, food etc etc) I just figured it would be faster than trawling my way through all 3 of those edit screens. Oh and I promise I will leave to go to university soon. Thanks. --ChiefjusticeDS 20:26, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

STOMPING THROUGH THE FABRIC OF YOUR SOCIETY Seriously though, where would you be without me? Would drama ever be the same again? It's so very simple. The great monster rises from the water and pauses dramatically while shimmering in the moonlight. He slowly looks into the camera and utters a deep resonating scream that encompasses all our deepest fears. Spotlights search the dark horizon to find his massive hulk of reptilian glory a mere kilometer from the heart of the great industrial city. Slowly, the great beast steps onto dry land and his rein of terror begins. Buildings crumble before him as he appears to be endlessly searching for something. Something to appease unknown demonic desires as yet to be defined. Of course, it's really just an act. The confused searching thing gets em' all nervous, that's for sure. The bottom line is simple. Please don't use atomic weapons, OK? Your vote for Godzilla vs. Vaginus is a step in the right direction and hopefully some measure of your mammalian guilt will be relieved. Thank you so much. ;-) xxx Gojira |
Long time no read! I got an E-mail because some IP left a comment on the talk page accusing the article of being copied from ED and all of a sudden I notice that the article is on the front page.....oh!...that's nice! So thanks for the vote! It's been a blur of researching, reading and Facebook for a few months here. I'll definitely catch up this winter, looks like some new interesting faces/ID's around. Hope you and the Mrs are doing well!--
21:01, September 11, 2009 (UTC)You huffed Discordian American Princess!
Goddess will get you for that! Really I know it's my fault. I started it before I was ready because it was linked from Brooke Shields and I didn't want my first featured article to have red links. Then I couldn't think of how to do it. I'll work on it on my user page then put it back when it's an article. :) DAP Dame Pleb Com. Miley Spears (talk) 01:28, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
- Why do people have such an aversion to red links? I think having a few -- even in featured articles, can be helpful. People see that we don't have an article on something it prompts them to write it. Yes we have stuff like requested articles and Most wanted, but few newbies know to even look for those. This isn't an attack on you, Miley, I'm just venting over red-haters in general. Orian57 Talk

So how's UU, 'e day?
Bet Rome was Romey. Better surely than being on the dole -- I don't even want to be here anymore. The whole thing is suffocating me slowly. Add to this my best friend just left for University and the last thing I said to him was "we should have done this more often", which is a tragedy all of it's own. And I'm starting to realise -- really realise, that I should have tried harder at school. Then there's just a multitude of little things gnawing away at me. And I thought depression was meant to be funny. Sorry, I'm pretty sure you're not a therapist, I'm just venting. Ignore me. Don't, obviously. On a happier note I came up with the title: UnBooks:Justice League of Document Controllers, like a receptionist really bigging up her job. Struck me as possibly funny.

UnSignpost September 10/17
The Newspaper With No Ambitions, Goals, Hopes or Dreams!
Date September 17th, 2009 • Issue 64 • Consistently Declining Readership Since 2008!
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! |

This would've gotten here last week, but it's my firs week as paperboy and I got lost. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 23:39, September 22, 2009 (UTC)
what's the UU situation nowadays?
so i'm trying to make a smooth comeback here, because a crash comeback is apparently ineffective. anyway, i've started with the unsignpost. what's your uncyc involvement level? can you donate a story sometimes? a UU obscure british dialect expression of the week? perhaps some crumpets? are you doing adminly duties, or can i provoke you into doing some writing? if i keep asking questions, will you hit me with a wrench? 01:53, September 23, 2009 (UTC)
- Hello Gerald, good to see you around again. I am busy. Busy busy busy. Work is a major pain again, and now I'm trying to buy a house! So I'm a mite less active than I'd like to be (the ckecking's still backed up, for instance, although I plan to blitz that friday). That said, I still love the USP, and was hoping against hope that someone would rescue it, because I'm just not in a position to. I'll chip in an article whenever I can, and will drop off ideas when I come up with them. If you remember, could you add a link to the latest ish under "things to watch" in my memory? That might give me the kick I need to contribute some news-juice. Now it's off to bed - mortgage hassles await on the morrow! --UU - natter
22:31, Sep 23
- well the gents have been getting issues together for the past month, but i figured i'd give it the extra cheevers kick. good luck finding an acceptable dwelling for the missus with sewer access reasonably close for you. i'll feel free to pester you if i want some good old "colour" in an issue. 22:51, September 23, 2009 (UTC)

At least I'm willing to take some responsibility. I lack confidence and I was too lazy to start applying the minute I left school. That's down to me. Now that I'm actually trying I keep getting regected, which is the facist employers. And in a little while I'm gonna be put on a work placement for thirteen weeks, working for well under the minimum wage. At least that'll be valid experiance but still irritating. Anyway after that rant I think I'm going to bed now. Or maybe kill some zombies. Orian57 Talk

UnSignpost: September 24th, 2009
Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth
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. Standings:

I just had a brain fart
And I think that our 2009-2010 project should be Mass Effect. ~ 19:15, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
- Well, maybe. Not sure what kind of angle to take with that one, TBH. Plus it hasn't had the kind of popular culture exposure that other games have, making it quite a hard sell. Don't suppose you like the sound of English Accents: from the American perspective, there are two - posh (upper class twit) and common (cockney). Oh, and whatever that woman on Frasier is meant to be doing, so 3. Wait, Scottish - 4. And Irish - 5. Plus a guide to Hollywood representations thereof. It's an idea I've had kicking around for a while and not done anything with, and it would probably help to get Johnny Foreigner's perspective on it, ,what? --UU - natter

Pee Review purgation
In an attempt to shorten the Pee Review queue without actually doing any work, I've started being all italic and nominating crappy articles from the queue on VFD. I figure that if I were to review an article and I wouldn't have anything more to say than "this sucks, start over or give up" (like I did with Raka), I might as well put it on VFD and let the community say in a few votes what I would spend an in-depth review telling them, thus freeing up the queue for articles that have a shot at improvement. Just thought I'd tell you to see what you think, and so you don't get the impression that I'm trying to scare your customers away. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 21:33, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
- Also, can you explain what to do about this? Making this Pee Review page is the user's only contribution, and while the text on the page would make a mediocre-but-keepworthy UnNews article, I doubt the author's going to come back or even care what happens. My executive function is totally failing as to how to handle this. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 21:45, September 27, 2009 (UTC)
- About the Burt Reynolds thing - I'd put that on QVFD, as it's not a review request. I've deleted it with a hopefully helpful note in case they do come back. As to nominating crappy articles on VFD, that's less good. We've had articles kept before because they were waiting for a review, and the comments on VFD are rarely any help to anyone genuinely looking to improve their article. How do you think it would feel to a new editor who has put their article up for review hoping to get some helpful tips on improving, and instead it suddenly gets nommed for deletion? Not going to encourage them to stick around and improve, is it? Granted, many crap articles that get reviewed never get improved, which is disheartening. But some do, so we can't dismiss all the "poor" articles out of hand, you never know where the next good writer is going to emerge from. Besides, the queue seems to go in cycles - it gets longer, someone goes on a rampage, it gets shorter. I've been watching it for over 2 years now, and it's happened several times. I have no doubt it will happen again. So don't do this. By all means remove anything doing well on VFH, but don't nom for deletion while it's up for review. --UU - natter
11:47, Sep 28
- Okay, my reasoning was that if I would never review a certain article then I shouldn't impose on someone else to review it. It seems to me that the "undesirables" will sit at the bottom of the queue until some poor fool picks them up. When I reviewed Raka, it was at the bottom and the second-to-last request was days younger than it, so people were obviously avoiding it. But I'll stop since you asked so politely. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 14:56, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
- Also, for the record, other requests I prefer to skip over completely are ones where the it's not the author making the request but rather someone who likes the article but hasn't worked on it, and any request by <insert name here>. Man, I hate that guy. --Pleb SYNDROME CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!) 15:09, September 28, 2009 (UTC)
- I agree with the second point there - I was very close to closing that request myself, and I might yet, if my mood gets worse. But I appreciate you leaving the other requests alone - I know more than most that it can be a chore reviewing the crap when it doesn't get acted on (I'd say half of the reviews I've ever done never got acted on, that's 75-odd wastes of my time). But several times, I have been surprised, and a decent little article has emerged following some decent advice - and I'd like to think that a few little diamonds are worth sorting through a chunk of silt for. --UU - natter
15:18, Sep 28
- I have to apologise firstly as I have not kept up with the output of reviews myself, <bullshit> simply as I have a real life. </bullshit> One thing that I would like to see is when older member's of the community do the adoption thingy, that they are the ones to go through and review their adoptee's work. I haven't been here long enough to feel like adopting - my psuedo adopting is enough for me - and I was never adopted - because some bugger from England turned me down - but it seems to me that as a symbiotic relationship it makes sense that the first few reviews for a n00b come from one source - preferably a style that the n00b likes - so they can mould and shape and bleagh. It also means that more important stuff (ie, mine) gets reviewed a little faster. Pup
- It happens - most people do a flurry of reviews for maybe a month or two, then calm down, particularly if, during that month or two, they win the RotM award. Despite my best efforts with awards and top tens and the like, most people kinda tail off after that. Even I'm doing one a month at best at present. I am considering suggesting to active members a kind of review queue "blitz" though, because there is a bit of a backlog. My suggestion will be: all active members (about 15, at a rough guess) do 2 reviews each this weekend. That should cut the queue right down to size. How does that sound? --UU - natter

It was villen goot to work with you on der artikel. And I'd like to say danke schon on ze zehr fun ve had.
Also, it gave me an idea to do a reskin of Üncyclopedia, the Germanic Encyclopedia that anyone can edit for the glory of the fatherland. What do you think?
Also, did you notice the FH template? ~ 08:04, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

I think the reskin would have been fun to tie in with the day it was featured, but without something to link it in to, it'd just look a bit odd for no real reason. Plus I'm no good at reskins. Still, if you can think of something to link it to then let me know! --UU - natter

Hey, could you release Roman Dog Bird's ban? I left an important message on his talk page regarding, well, swastikas and an apology. Also, I don't see why he isn't doing anything good.

Name change
Just got a reply from Sannse, who says that user names are permanent. I'll act out via signature--I sporked yours, but it took a long time to learn the double-brace trick. Spιke|(talk) 01:54, October 2, 2009 (UTC)
- PS--Of course, first I searched your user page to see if I had corresponded with you here before, and the first hit was the {Username} trick, above ("I hate that guy") and it took a full 30 seconds to realize the obvious explanation. I'm so defensive!
- Pretty much everyone has fallen for {{username}} at one point or another. Me possibly less than some because people so rarely call me Under user - it's the capitalisation as much as anything... Anyway, I figured that would be the case, but that sig should get people calling you Spike anyway. You just need to use it properly now - here's how: go to the "my preferences" tab, and in the signature box put {{SUBST:nosubst|User:SpikeFromNH/nameofpagewhereyoursigcodeiskept}}, then tick the "custom signature" box underneath it. Scroll to the bottom of the page to save your changes, and job's a good one, and you don't put all that code in a page every time you sign it. Like the sig, by the way, minimalism is good! --UU - natter
08:27, Oct 2
- I had taken you off my watchlist, but returned here to ask you that exact question! I had already found "My preferences," of course. (I didn't actually sculpt those color boxes into your talk page!) But I did notice that my code was inserted into your page, whereas other users got double-brace syntax that is both more concise and is likely to pick up future changes to their signatures. (Being a veteran of
runoff
, I assumed the answer was to type 3 or 4 braces.) SUBST had already somehow been added to the filename I typed in Preferences, but nosubst had not. This will be a test. By the way, I found no Help on the My preferences forms--Is this deliberate? User:SpikeFromNH/signature 12:04, October 2, 2009 (UTC)- Again, most people have a little fun when they try making their first sig. Looks like your test worked, nice one! As to the Help thing, you probably won't find much help where it would actually be helpful, possibly due to Wikia sucking, possibly not. Anyway, there's UN:HELP, which occasionally has some answers you might find useful. Beyond that, the best way to find something out is to ask someone. You can always ask me - if I can't answer, I'll just go bug someone who can! --UU - natter
12:08, Oct 2
- Oh, and there's UN:SIG for general sig related thingies. --UU - natter
12:10, Oct 2
- You're right again, the help on signatures (and how not to go crazy with them) is good. I either read the start of Help for Beginners and got to work, or didn't read it at all, thinking my stripes at Wikipedia were sufficient. Thanks. User:SpikeFromNH/signature 01:04, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
