Dear screen,

I'm a regular contributor to french Uncyclopedia branch (and no it's not an oxymoron, or even an oxy) and I was wondering if i could translate one of my article in the language of Britney Shakespears on the Uncyclopedia. It's not a deep thought article, just un 1st degree humour quiz that one could translate "Quiz : How stupid are you". If the answer is YES, I need help for 2 things : in my original article, i use a special model allowing to drop-down a box of text after clicking on a link named "dérouler" (even if you don'un understand french language, you can check what i'm talking about in the article). Is there anything similar here or do I have the possibility to import this model from the Désensyclopédie. Second thing I would need help for is grammar and syntax. English is not ma native language (yeah, i know, you noticed that already), and i don't want to publish a text full of crappy mistakes. Thx. WiiKend 13:40, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello, this is your screen talking to you[edit source]

You should try this one - to help you with grammar. Your screen. ~Jewriken.GIF 09:16, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Butterfly Effect Pee Review[edit source]

Whoops! I jumped the gun and forgot to view the discussion page, my apologies. If an article requires proof-reading, I suggest you add {{Proofread}} to the article, which will bring it to the attention of the Proofreading Service. BlackHarrier32 15:35, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Negative Potato[edit source]

Just made a few alterations, which I hope improve the article - do of course feel free to revert if you preferred it as it previously was. I have to say, when I first read the piece, I didn't guess you were not a native English speaker because your English spelling and grammar is very good. Better than a lot of English people's, in fact. Now, let's wait for it to be featured! :-) RabbiTechno 11:34, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank for modifications and comments. Unfortunatly i'm not the original writer of the french version of this article (I wish I thought about this brilliant concept) but I always appreciated it and as the potato is somehow the symbol of uncyclopedia, i thought it would perfectly fit here. The french article is a bit longer but I was unable to translate it all with the same humour, basically because of some puns which are almost impossible to translate. Hope it will be featured but i guess the current score (3 / 3) is not that good (it's a featured article on french uncyclopedia by the way) WiiKend 11:57, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, I'm still impressed by your English. You did a very good job of translating it. RabbiTechno 13:27, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

UnNews[edit source]

'Ello, didn't even realise the car crash story was one of yours - I've been spending much more time on UnNews recently, including tidying up articles so yours got proof-read without me even looking at the page history. The title seems fine to me - short, snappy and to the point. I certainly can't think of anything better. :-) Rabbi Techno Icons-flag-gb.png kvetch Icon rabbi.gif Contribs Foxicon.png FOXES 17:10, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

UnNews onthe front page...just add them here, ensuring that you follow the relevant instructions contained therein. :-) Rabbi Techno Icons-flag-gb.png kvetch Icon rabbi.gif Contribs Foxicon.png FOXES 08:21, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Negative Potato Rewrite[edit source]

Hello, I see you have written (or more translated) the article negative potato. It's a very good article, so I gave it a try at rewriting it. I gave it a good polish, and new jokes. The main concept is all still there, but I thought I could switch it with the mainspace article. The article can be found here. Give it a quick read, and let me know. Thanks. --Saleenmustang.jpg fuentfue Saleenmustang.jpg My Talk : My Awards 21:43, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

A Perfect Article[edit source]

Thanks for this article it's very good and some people here do need to do extra homework around it I think. Just to say that I might have left something out in my last edit, so you might need to skim through and see what I missed out (I got edit conflicts with Socky...). Keep up the translations :) --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 20:51, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Actually WiiKend I wouldn't mind helping, um, steal transfer some articles from the French Uncyc. I can read French enough to get the gist of what is being said, so we could work together on what are generally considered to be the best French articles (assuming that they would translate well to an English-speaking culture). What do you think? --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 21:03, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Haha and Columbine Cluedo is good, I have a strong feeling it would go down well here too :) --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 21:04, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
My French is awful (spoken), I'm much better at reading, but it's still been 5 or so years since I learnt at school. It's still good enough to get the girls, bien sur! That doesn't need the French language though, just a French accent and a bit of improvisation ;)
But back to the main issue, I have looked over a few articles on desencyclopedie and find it a little more difficult to get the subtleties (is there sometimes use of more colloquial French?) that I was hoping. I can get the gist though. Also, if we were to do a translation collab we'd just do it in turns whenever we're bored/not doing anything else, so you could just correct whatever I mis-translate, or I could improve whatever English you have written (not that your English is bad, by a long way) --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 21:18, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
lol, I meant "awful" up there, not "awesome", sorry, also don't worry about offending any of us, if it's funny anything is good. I looked at your 2001: A Space Odyssey article (by chance I am reviewing a 2001 article over here) and you put a helluva lot of work in! It's very good, but very different to ours. Over here self-reference and minimalism is all the rage in director/film articles, so we dont have anything quite as ambitious as that version by you. Very nice though --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 21:30, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
If you're looking for good articles to translate I would highly recommend things like this, this and this.
Hi WiiKend, I'll have a look at what you've done so far. Also, I'm going to set up a general "Translation Portal" on my user page (until I get permission to set one up somewhere more important) that can act as a more accessible bridge between the various uncyclopedias. Any suggestion for a witty name? Bear in mind it will really just be a list of pages (under "Czech" "French" "English" "Spanish" etc...) people have recommended, or are working on translating. It'd be a good way of getting new ideas into each uncyclopedia and freshening things up a little, what do you think?
I would also reccomend this if you like your humour dark btw. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 09:53, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

A New Section[edit source]

I might temporarily go with "More Reasons to Hate Those Foreign Types" until I can think of something better, thanks for the tips. I'll try to contact a xenophilic mod to see what he thinks about the concept being more prominent. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 10:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Sure I can, also I sent you a message over on the French uncyclopedia. Feel free to edit the formatting on The Foreign Office if you like. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 13:53, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to UnNews[edit source]

Reverend Zim_ulator says: "There are coffee cup stains on this copy, damnit! Now that's good UnJournalism."

Welcome to UnNews, WiiKend, and thank you for contributing some crap, or otherwise attracting my attention. For a quick introduction about how you can write a decent or better UnNews article, please take a minute read our spiffy new Style Guide.

I am your humble servant (in your dreams), and if I may be of help to you, please leave me a note on my talk page.

Good things that can happen to you

You can win awards and prizes! You can become a better writer by subjecting your articles to the scrutiny of UnNews critique machine or UnCanninator shit article detection system. You can become a thorn in the side of Journalism as a whole. You can get promotions, ribbons, and free crockery! You can write stuff your mom would be ashamed to show her friends.

What happened to my article?

If you've submitted an article, and it's disappeared, I may have mercy-moved it to your user space. This means I've probably left a message on your talk page, likely in close proximity to this very message, explaining why.

Your article may have been tagged for ICU if it has significant problems meeting our criteria, or I may have deleted it because you did not register as a user.

Finally, maybe you just pissed me off. I mean, I know I'm a Roshi, and I'm supposed to be all "Zen" about everything, but I have bad days too, you know?

UnNews UnFunnies

At present, I create UnCartoons for UnNews all by my onesies, for better or worse. Now, I will never claim that I am a good cartoonist. Fortunately, the internet provides us a way to do all sorts of things simply and easily. I found Stripgenerator.com, a great site to create cartoons with a minimum of talent.

This document is an ongoing effort by me to enhance the obfuscation coefficient of Uncyclopedia; productive changes, and criticism are welcome. Cheers!

Ambassadeur Italien[edit source]

Bonjour, El Sid a dit à moi que tu es l'ambassadeur francais en Engleterre. Je voudrai savoir s'il y a quelque article que je peux traduire du francais au italien. Je suis desolé mais je n'ai pas la cedilles dans le clavier et je ne peux pas écrire correctement le francais.--Wiki it.png Magnus Wiki it.png Wiki it.png 11:45, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Moi, je suis d'origine francais mais, si tu ne crois pas que je peux pas traduire des articles, j'ai una famille francaise qui peut m'aider.--Wiki it.png Magnus Wiki it.png Wiki it.png 16:18, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Est-ce que tu peux me dire s'il y a un article en particulier?--Wiki it.png Magnus Wiki it.png Wiki it.png 21:04, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

C'est vraiment facile à traduire...--Wiki it.png Magnus Wiki it.png Wiki it.png 21:46, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Fist-Fucking[edit source]

Tonight, you on? Same time same place, right? But seriously, I'm checking over your article now, hope this is ok, it's very good so far, just needs a bit of Anglification, some of the wording is a bit off. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 19:13, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

OK I finished fist-fucking, hope you like it. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 21:48, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Yeah "mommies and pappies" = mums and dads, don't worry about that. As for the actual article being ugly, I don't think it really is. It could do perhaps with a conclusion, or something more to the latter half, but I don't think it's ugly per se. Perhaps it justs needs a little bit of formatting to make it clear that the two voices are different. I like the first image, but perhaps it could do with another image afterwards. I definitely think it needs a conclusion, but since this is a straight translation, I feel it is a bit cheeky for me to say this. --El Sid, the lazy oneparlez-vous franglais? 09:25, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

quiproquo[edit source]

Hep, comment ca se fait que je sois listé comme ambassadeur sur la page Uncyclopedia:Foreign_Office ? T'as laissé tomber le poste ou c'est juste une confusion ? --PiRK 22:52, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Miley Cyrus fan responds[edit source]

I'm a big fan of Miley Ray Cyrus (considering my name what a surprise!) so I was a little unsure about UnNews:Miley Cyrus: "I wanna be a role model for youth". I read it, did other things for a couple days, then reread it. I think it's really funny! If it hadn't already been on the front page, I might have VFH nomm'd it. Also if there was a movie titled "School Girl Spank," how would that be translated into French? Admin DAP Dame Pleb Com. Miley Spears (talk) 01:33, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
