At Uncyclopedia, writing articles is not a requirement, but it certainly is a fun and easy way to express your creativity. To write an article, it's recommended that you start it in your userspace (for example, User:Docile hippopotamus/Article about stuff) so you can edit it at your leisure. If you decide to create it in the cold world of mainspace, make sure it is in accordance with the policies laid out above, and if you're not done put the "Work-In-Progress" template - {{construction}} - onto it as well.
If you want to write and don't know where to begin, browse our rewrite and idea categories. We have lots of articles just sitting around for someone to improve, so don't be afraid - dive right in!
If you need help, ask me on my talk page, ask at the Dump, or ask an administrator on their talk page. Additionally, the Uncyclopedian Adopt-a-Noob program is there to bring experienced editors straight to you. Simply leave a message on an adopter's talkpage to join. Again, welcome! --Sycamore(Talk) 16:53, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Flying hippos - there's something you don't see every day. Well, not since I quit drinking. They must have moved away. Anyway, what I'd like to say is: thanks for pitching in over at pee review, Docile hippopotamus - you've made an impressive start with some helpful reviews. If you're interested in such things, there's a usergroup called PEEING you can join, for helpful types (or those who like giving others the benefit of their opinions, whichever applies!) If you are interested, pop over and join - you've already done enough to meet the criteria.
And if you don't, no worries, I hope you carry on helping folks anyway, and have fun on the wiki! --UU - natter22:00, Dec 19
Happy Festivus, from The Led Balloon and Jerry Stiller. Put up your Festivus Pole, air your grievances, and prepare for the feats of strength, for festivus cannot continue until I am pinned! Oh, and merry Christmas if you're into that sort of thing.
Thank you all for voting me your Writer of the Month for December 2008, despite my rather long winded speech half-telling you not to while still being whore enough to accept the award anyways. Enjoy this pretty template styled after my pretty new userpage as your payment, as per our previous agreement. Much love, —SirSysRq (talk) 22:49, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Wow! I am really surprised at the difference in scores! Thanks so much for your time! Scary Movie got nominated for VFH! Woot! Thanks again! --Tagstit 14:33, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi! Just wandering past to thank you for your vote in UotY - much appreciated. I'm very happy to be runner up for the award. It's nice when good new users notice what you're doing and take the time to go vote. Hope you're doing well, and see you around the place! -UU - natter17:39, Feb 1
Gavin would like to thank you once more for sympathizing with him enough to vote for his book to be among the top ten books of 2008. Unless, of course, you happen to be a transsexual, in which case you are a freak and should not email him. Much love, —SirSysRq (talk) 21:49, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Good day, old chap! Thank you indeed for your vote on my article, UnBooks:Hot Japanese Girls - Colourblind or Unable to Speak English?.
As a sterling reward, I will not deliberately make this text extremely tiny around these
pictures of some rather cracking Japanese girls I've supplied for you.
... I say, are you still there, old boy?

Understandably, you voted for my article for featuring. Although your "for" vote was not extraordinary, as the article's genius was beyond question, it is still appropriate to acknowledge your dutiful participation in the process.
So, in gratitude for your vote, I will dedicate my next sexual act to your honor. Thank you.
The following sexual acts are available for this honor. Please indicate below this template which one you would like me to dedicate to your user name.
If you are asking about the messages I recently left on people's talk pages, its for an article I'm writing about The Woodburninator, ok? --Docile hippopotamus 01:36, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Um. That's probably not a good idea, but hea... I would not spam that message around any more if I were you. I doubt people will appreciate it. MrNFork you! 01:39, Mar 22
...spam? I'm not trying to have it as spam. --Docile hippopotamus 01:40, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
I only wish you could've tied with me. But, then again, that's RabbiTechno's job. So I guess this template is all I can do for you. Thanks again, dearest friend!

Oh, by the way, before we begin todays session, I'd like to thank you for supporting my recent featured article. Now, tell me about your childhood.--You know what the music means...Our time is up.
For the SotM nom/win. I hope you realize how much you just risked by doing that--especially since one or two months ago, I was nommed and shouted down by a shitload of people.

Thanks for voting for my article, Kinsey Report No. 3: Sexual Behavior in Hamsters. And do rest assured that I am not a violent or vindictive person, and that voting no would have in no way resulted in me abusing my administrative powers to crush you like a grape. ~ Todd Lyons
And also, but not belated:
So, uhm, thanks for votin' for my article, "I Like Cats (The Other White Meat)", eh? Like, maybe if you're not busy later you could come by, and I'll fry up some back bacon on the Coleman, and we can have a beer and talk. Unless you don't drink, eh? Cuz like I don't want to push you off the wagon or nothin'. I got some Tim Horton's coffee too, eh? Beauty. ~ Todd Lyons
Do you ever plan on editing it? Your's is one of the default ones, so I didn't know if you wanted it that way or just didn't feel like doing it. DonPuttanocHeDDs 19:18,28May,2009
Oh my goodness, thank you very much for the Foolizter nomination, that's very kind of you!!!

Sorry there's no clever template this time around. I just wanted to thank you for voting for UnTunes:I Will Possess Your Log before it gets kicked off VFH.
Sorry, I was doing mass thanking. I thought this was Crab Pope's talkpage. Protip: Don't take acid before editing. ^_^ --Dame 16:25, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
More importantly, thank you for your vote DH. --Dame 16:28, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm sorry you didn't like the "Atlas Shrugged" article. Could you tell me more specifically why it was not funny, so perhaps I could in some way make it better? Thanks, Clemens177 19:48, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
My problem with it was mainly "Philosophical Points Pitilessly Preached". Apart from that its alright and I should vote for it. --Docile hippopotamus 04:00, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
Well, I will certainly go look at that section again. If I can improve it, I will...but am unsure as to what to add or subtract. My biggest problem in this article was to make it so that someone who hasn't read her books could even begin to understand it.
I saw that you changed your vote. I appreciate that very much. Thank you. --Clemens177 08:45, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
For the article, I wasn't going by all of the little parts at the bottom, just the parts on the main menu. When you clcik come on in in the real site, it has a main menu with 6 or so buttons, and I'm doing the article to reflect that. DonPuttanocHeDDs 22:27,21June,2009

Happy Fourth. You mightve noticed I've been gone for months. I didn't forget about you, I was just on a bit of a hiatus. Anyway, I just wanted to say hi, and let u know that I'm still alive. Although I did almost blow my head off yesterday when I put a triple-burst firework into its launching tube upside-down. Also, I drove a jetski at 70 miles per hour in a small lake right next to Lake Michigan. How's your summer going so far? --The Great Lung Sphincter of Nebuchadnezzar 23:39, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
My summer has been OK. It has been a bit boring. It's good to have a break from school. --Docile hippopotamus 03:01, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
I'd just like to thank you for reviewing my article, Call from Grandma. I am still an unexperienced user and any help or feedback of any kind is greatly appreciated. —AlbinoZombie 17:38, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
Hey Docile hippopotamus, you should make a signature. And a badass one, that fits you. As you can see, my sig is cheesy. —FlutterTuwoolookie! | My History | Brute!20:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
I was gonna say the same thing, but Saberwolf116 got angryish for suggesting it. I made him one, and he didn't even use it :(. DonPuttanocHeDDs 20:53,14July,2009
No thanks. If I come up with a sig idea I like I'll tell both of you. --Docile hippopotamus 04:38, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
You could use the one I made for Saber--> I could make a sig.
But i'd rather use the default, and look pitiful in the face of all your mighty sigs. Don't ask why. DonPuttanocHeDDs 16:46,16July,2009
archive! Also, you should enable e-mailing. I have an idea for a HowTo, but I don't want to say it in public. Send me an email. --The Great Lung Sphincter of Nebuchadnezzar 22:40, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
I don't know how to enable it. I'll ask under user. --Docile hippopotamus 06:15, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Good idea. If anyone knows how to work the e-mails, it's UU. Also, what's new about my sig? First one right gets a prize. ---The Great Lung Sphincter of Nebuchadnezzar 09:14, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

edit Thanks for helping make Six Hats a feature...
...and this is where I'm supposed to have made a really exciting template, but it's easier for me to just write this once and then cut and paste it a bunch of times. Pupt 09:33, 11/08/2009
You work for the UnSignpost? When did that start? Wait, so what am I responding to? Someone says they don't like it, or someone says that I don't like it. Your grammar is confusing me. 17YEARSOFcHeDDaR 22:33,20August,2009

Well, look at this! Appears we got through VFH just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Sir, how many times has this quote been used on the Internet? Absolutely not, Zoe. I don't see— Sir, I am not going to use that quote directly, especially when it has become the title of a TV Tropes page.
Huh.
Thank you for supporting the Firefly article! <sarcasm style="obvious">Although, if I may, my plan was really to have it fail VFH after 11 days, have it quasi-featured, start a "Feature Firefly" campaign, and eventually rewrite and have featured the article on Serenity (which is kind of in a mess at the moment).</sarcasm> But thanks anyway!

Hey Hiphop-opotamus, whose writings are bottomless.
I am just trying to get a little feedback for the above article, as I feel that it has a bit of wingspan but it obviously still hasn't quite gotten airborne. Was there anything particularly unlikeable about it, or was it just a ho-hum factor. Be as detailed or lack thereof in your answer. Or in fact don't even answer at all, completely your call. But this is a bit of a polarising article by the looks of it, and for that reason PEE review has helped me so far but not far enough. Pupt 22:36, 3/09/2009
My rhymes are so potent that in this small segment
I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant
Yes, sometimes my lyrics are sexist
But you lovely bitches and hoes should know I'm trying to correct this.
I didn't think it is great, but it is good. For you if you re-nom it I will vote for. --Docile hippopotamus 09:05, September 9, 2009 (UTC)

As the French version of the musical says: À la grande misère du peuple Et à l'absence de la joie Remplis ton cœur d'un vin très triste Et à demain, ami désolé. Nous voulons faire la guerre Contre notre gouvernement Pour illuminer notre terre Malgré que probablement nous mourrons en faisant cela parce que nous ne pourrons jamais être heureux puisque cette intrigue se fixe sur la misère incessante qui vient de l'injustice sociale dont nous souffrons These thank-you templates get harder to write every time, don't they? Really, it's quite a miserable predicament.
Thank you for supporting! (In case you need a translation, here's one.) SirMacManiaGUN—[21:07 14 Sep 2009]
Star Wars sequel announced, may contain disturbing twists
The controversial 2010 remake of Star Wars will have a sequel. This unpopular move was sparked after the remake was voted #1 for August 2009 by Uncyclopedia. "We felt we may as well use the freedom given to us when we virtually wiped out 33 years' worth of continuity," said co-producer and co-director George Lucas, all the while taunting the editors at Wookieepedia. Most reaction has been decidedly negative, with critics saying that "Lucas will most certainly take cues from the Devil himself" and that "he will most certainly manage to do what he did with the last film—make us regret being Star Wars fans."
for supporting the featured article on the Doctor. Except the Twenty-first. He's busy filming. The last we heard of him, he was trying to recruit Daleks for the British Army in the Great War. We all know how that'll turn out. He's also being chased by rabid David Tennant fans trying to get him back to his previous incarnation.
That's brilliant, isn't it?
I say, would you like a jelly baby?
Thank you for supporting! Oh, and the above was me too. That's what happens when I lose my clipboard to a fiery inferno. SirMacManiaGUN—[01:49 19 Sep 2009]

Sun Bee thanks for voting for our extinct species which will be featured on 21 Oct. 2009. Because you voted for, you are entitled to one jar of Sun Bee brand hot virgin honey. If you can find us.
I have not responded to that original message for a reason. I did not respond to the following message you send because it was non of your business apart from the fact that I don't work for you and I don't report to you. I ignored your email for those two reasons plus the fact that you simply don't know how to address people in a manner that will motivate to respond or to help you. I don't owe you anything, chum, and you spamming my email box will not help your cause. If you come back, I'm going to place an office rule that will ensure that your future conduct here is closely monitored. ~ 23:56, November 5, 2009 (UTC)
