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:Fishalishalish/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.

UnNews:SFPD puts large dent in Mexican toy cartel
Finally! a new contributor who actually reads the real news! Welcome, and thank you for submitting a story not based on your favorite video game or TV show. But I've changed the capitalization of the headline, as shown above. Spıke ¬ 09:04 11-Nov-10
- Oh hey. Thanks dude. 'Tis a pleasure. --Fishalishalish 08:32, November 12, 2010 (UTC)
UnNews:Alaskan senate race update: Everybody wins
Another 1-spot, though the only overnight competition was the Profiles in Courage about hentai animators, and you've got an Uncyclopedia user name, and he doesn't.
The reality of this recount is funny in its own right, the sitting lawmaker's lawyers telling recount officials to break the law, which allows only two ways to spell her name; and Miller's lawyers challenging mountains of votes, by voters who obviously wanted Moocowski despite their inability to spell their own name--the Tea Party candidate, who supposedly wants to return power from insiders back to the people, working overtime to disenfranchise them, one at a time.
Also deserving mention is the way that Murkowski, that servant of the people, graciously bowed to the popular will and party solidarity by running against her party's nominee--and her buddies in the Washington backslapparama unanimously defended her committee assignments and perks.
My only edits were to move the percent signs and add a few links. Oh, and please don't crack wise with the title of your Source--It is your reader's link to reality, which is sometimes necessary to understand an article's full humor. Spıke ¬ 11:24 13-Nov-10
- I'll keep that in mind next time. Generally I consider it my goal to keep the general public as misinformed as humanly possible, but hey, a proper title's a proper title. And yes it quite the absurd situation in itself. I did consider going on about the trials or miller's whole east germany thing but I didn't want to deviate from the main idea too much. Also I was feeling pretty lazy. Oh and thanks for fixin the percents. One of those "wtf was I thinking?" moments. --Fishalishalish 09:53, November 16, 2010 (UTC)
Well, every holodeck has to have a door. By the way, when a newer article came along, I would have dropped yours lower on the page rather than replaced it, but your rectangular photograph cried out for rendering at double the usual 100px width, and the 1-spot is the only place where that works. Spıke ¬ 12:29 16-Nov-10
By the way, paragraphs 2 and 3 above sound like the basis for a fine UnNews story--and I'm writing it, demonstrating our credo that we don't give a damn about consistency between articles. Spıke ¬ 11:20 19-Nov-10
UnNews:Local author gives up on dream
I don't know how to do this one up on the Front Page. But I am impressed. Spıke ¬ 01:42 27-Nov-10 PS--Figured it out and gave you the 5-spot. Romartus, with his article keying off Sarah Palin's "North Korea" gaffe, has to keep the 1-spot. Spıke ¬ 01:52 27-Nov-10
- Glad you like it. I appreciate ch'y'all helping out around unnews and whatnot. --(lol.) 04:51, November 27, 2010 (UTC)
I take it from your user page that they have decided to feature this article, which earns you a promotion and, most importantly, a pay increase. Although the article about the Korean birthday party for Miley Cyrus also got famous this week, your article had the most meteoric rise through VFH of any recent UnNews. The typical UnNews (like all of mine, sniff!) languishes in the voting until it is plenty stale. Congratulations! and do come back for more! Spıke ¬ 01:27 5-Dec-10
- Ah, a pay increase, you say? Excellent. I shall work twice as hard then, comrade. Hopefully soon I will earn enough rubles to buy a pair of the much touted "American blue jeans"... Anyways, yeah, I have to admit I was a little surprised by the number positive reactions I've been getting. Looks like I can just totally pull something out of my as --whoops, I mean work diligently and thoroughly enough on something to the point of it becoming worthy of praise. Been a while since I've done that on something that wasn't an essay. Damn, I hate these essays. I'll be on break in a couple of weeks so don't get too worried about me. Ha, at least you're consistent with your work. By the way, you guys do provide health insurance here, right? --(lol.) 06:19, December 6, 2010 (UTC)
Welcome
Great to see a newish contributor and you will have a feature as well. What has surprised me is that you joined in 2008 and I hadn't seen your contributions before. Where have you been!? --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 15:50, November 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Well I used to loiter around Illogicopedia much more than this place. This account was more of a secondary account to that one for a while. Then I took a bit of a long, undeserved break to focus on some more *serious* writing pursuits (as well as school, o'course), and then when I got back into it, I started to realize that the kinda stuff I wanted to write wouldn't really fit there, so now here I am. Ta-daah. --(lol.) 19:28, November 30, 2010 (UTC)
UnNews:Obama cancels Christmas
Please continue to work on this, perhaps along the lines I suggested on its talk page, and you can have the 1-spot, which my story on Ireland really doesn't deserve. Spıke ¬ 19:33 30-Nov-10
UnNews:Emirates to build Burj Khalifa knock-off next to Burj Khalifa
Yes, welcome back! Longish headline, but okay I guess. But consider tweaking the lead paragraph, as I did when rendering it on the Front Page, to (1) highlight the name of the building on its first reference (the Chinese clone), and (2) make it explicit early that the new, bigger building is to be right next door to the existing one (though the headline partly does so). Cheers! Spıke ¬ 04:07 12-Jan-11
- Oh, I forget to mention that I did this. Yeah, I did this. Thx and such.--(lol.) 10:08, January 20, 2011 (UTC)
UnNews:Poll: Americans sympathize with cockblocked politician
Thanks for the UnNews! am going to lead with it today. I shortened the headline--doesn't need to contain the actual figures--and am going to massage the lead to read more like a real news story. Spıke ¬ 12:33 12-Feb-11
- Forsure. I like the whole poll-infos-on-the-bottom thing you did. Works better.--(lol.) 00:05, February 13, 2011 (UTC)

Great Barrier Reef
Hello, a very good page. I'm the one who slipped you the topic (chosen because it was one of the article names on that list of "1000 articles every encyclopedic wiki should have"), so I thought we could kill two smurfs with one bird. From the results, I'm glad you got it! Yay! Aleister 00:33 4-3-'11
- Woot. Thanks. I'm actually surprised I got anywhere with it, having stayed up late to write papers for the past several days. I'm not so sure exactly how many of these jokes are actually jokes or the results of my sleep-deprived delusions... Heh, anyhoo, glad you enjoyed it.-- hmm... 01:04, March 4, 2011 (UTC)
- Ummmm, delusions. And since nobody has come to put the cuffs on you, just want to mention that everybody stopped writing at 23:00, the time limit - oh, did you get an extension? If so, never mind. Glug glug. Just got the connection between your user name and the Great Barrier Reef! Aleister 1:17 4-3-'11
Olay happy monkey
Thank you for your participation in the Happy Monkey Competition. Because of your writing there are now 15 more amazing articles on Uncyclopedia. PS if you want your pee review to be expanded into a formal 50point review, please let me know on my talk page and Ill get to work on it right away! OLÉ!!! --ShabiDOO 01:24, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

Very nice news story. A lot more believable than Branson kite surfing the channel! lol. Keep writing more, I notice you didn't for a while. Very funny idea. Ticklethekeys (talk) 00:52, July 12, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, I loved it too! I'll put it on the UnNews frontpage. Cheers!
Mattsnow 02:23, July 12, 2012 (UTC)
Hey, you're back
Since ya are, I should bring yer attention to that article you wrote called Great Barrier Reef. It's mostly great, except that for a while there was a middle section that was just the words "MIDDLE SECTION" over and over again. I changed it to a shark. If you want to change it to something more substantive and in line with your comedic vision, do that, do that, dodoothatthatthat! -- 08:28, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

One feature away from HoS immortality. Get out while you still can! 07:38 15 Jul
Lots of random text on a page
A tooltip is the template that allows a user to hover over a word or group of words and have secret, hidden message be displayed. So hover over this sentence with yo mouse, beeeetch!
Also, please promote the site. We are short on members, and we really need a bumper crop of articles. So assimilate yourself as much as possible into the community, and begin promoting the site through use of social media, spamming other sites, and poop.
Thanks.
14:32, 16 July 2012
- Fo sho. I actually figured out the tooltip thing out as I was responding in the forum but thanks anyway. :P Apparently I've been using it for a while now but never knew what it was called. And I'm not terribly active on any other forums/sites at the moment, but sure. I'll spread the word whenever I can. -- hmm... 22:10, July 16, 2012 (UTC)
Very good work with your headless man article
And, by my count, that gave you 3 features so I added you to our Hall of Shame. Good work all around! The Woodburninator

Yes I can!
What would you like the title to be?
Mattsnow 04:22, July 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Sweet. Nothing much, I just realized that mis-typed "search" as "serach". -- hmm... 04:27, July 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Wait. Aha. All I have to do is "move" it don't I? Don't know why I never knew this feature existed before.. Thanks anyway. -- hmm... 04:38, July 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Done! You can do it yourself too, all you need to do is click the "move" button atop the screen (next to "history") and then type the new title and click "leave no redirect". Nice UnNews, I like it, don't forget to include like at least 4 orb 5 links in your articles (blue words) just so the reader is not stuck in a dead end after reading your article. Cheers!

Painting by Numbers This week some of Uncyclopedia's greatest and not so great have spent some time watching Uncyclopedia pass by without them. This is the news that Wikia has taken the momentous decision to lock out the vast majority of the active administrators and half the users. Problems began at 11:20 UTC on the 24th of July when Socky discovered that he was unable to access a few select features of his account; logging in being the most obvious. Banished to the realm of numbers Socky went to the forums and told everyone else. It soon became apparent that nobody could log in, except for Bizzeebeever, who "made the software his bitch" by pressing the log in button more than even wikia had anticipated. As everyone sat on the forum and debated just how angry and indignant this news should make them, a wikia representative was dispatched to the forum to pour oil on troubled waters, suggesting that Uncyclopedians "Return to causing world suffering or burning me in effigy". But burning effigies of Wikia staff members would have to wait as it became evident that, following the initial lock out of everybody, the adminstrator database had somehow been lost when it was being carried to a new building, or something like that. The administrator magic then gushed into the ground and caused a giant peach to grow outside Wikia headquarters. This condemned the administrators to a long evening of moaning on the Uncyclopedia IRC channel, where another Wikia representative awaited with nothing but a can do attitude and a lack of information about the problem to ensure that everybody remained as irritated as possible. Even worse than that, following a great deal of moaning somebody started off UnTrivia, forcing everybody through an evening of anagrams and obscure song lyrics. At the time of going to press only Thekillerfroggy appears to have been able to force his way through the log in procedure to use admin tools while users who could log in took full advantage of the absence of any administrators to fill the forum with appalling alternatives to fixing the problem. It would seem that, at present, the only solution is to make a new account and then curry favour with TKF, the only way to do this being fellatio or copious helpings of wang. 13.145.208.87 had this to say about the outage: "Zombiebaron.... FU WIKIA". 67.173.252.79 reported a similar feeling saying "Ahahahahahahahahah...god dammit, why can't I log in?". As we enter a second day with all the admins locked out something novel occurs to me; I can watch Uncyclopedia, and I can shag the sheep, but I don't want to if nobody knows it was me.

A call to arms!
Greetings, fellow colonizer! As you know, we have chosen Futurama as our article of choice in our quest to resurrect the once grand and glorious empire of Imperial Colonization. After considerable debate, we have decided on our battle strategy and plan on subduing and annexing this article into our Empire forthwith. As a God-fearing solider of our order, it is your duty to contribute to our conquest of this brute. Help us! Should you have any questions or suggestions for a new battle approach, please talk to your fellow imperialists.
Happy hunting!

So it would be best if you get your arse to the coast or you pretend to be a non-fish-thing or so-forth...per se. --ShabiDOO 04:03, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
- Ooh, them's fighting words. You're lucky I don't just grow legs and walk over to you, you friggn... land-based creature.-- hmm... 04:14, August 2, 2012 (UTC)
Dunno why...
But I somehow always log in when a new UnNews surfaces :P
Mattsnow 04:20, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Schweet. Maybe it's some kind of sign. A variation on the spidey sense? Who knows.-- hmm... 04:29, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
- It's like a subconscious move it seems. I always check in the morning and in the evening, go about my day of saving young damsels in distress while sometimes taking an internet break... Let's go see Uncy, while I'm at it. BOOM! New UnNews! How does that happen??? BTW, good one, I liked it! I wrote one recently UnNews:London Olympics athletics report. Quite a stupid one!
Mattsnow 04:45, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Maybe it's because that's when people edit? I know I usually do stuff before I sleep, just to keep ideas from nagging me into the next day (they tend to do that). And thanks. Btw that UnNews isn't half bad. Perhaps a little on the short and weird end (I wouldn't say stupid), but I laughed. -- hmm... 06:37, August 5, 2012 (UTC)
- I like that Chick Fil-a unnews! How stupid are people to go to a company "appreciation day"? The only way I'd do that is if a company took a stance against the wars in the Middle East or something, but no company will exercise their "free speech" for something important. "Enjoy your genetically modified chicken which spent his whole life in a one square foot cage and be a free speech activist!" lol
Mattsnow 23:56, August 6, 2012 (UTC)
- Totally agree with you on that. I mean, I respect the dude's free speech rights and all (as much as I may disagree) but to make a fast food place the centerpiece of a gay marriage argument is totally absurd. It's like that joke about it being the opposite of Ghandi's hunger strikes. Nobody is willing to even approach such extremes these days. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 00:38, August 8, 2012 (UTC)
- LOL, so true. Anyway, the issue of gay rights is just a political smokescreen to distract people from the real issues in my opinion, like being at war. Let them do what they want! Anyway, what's fun about this site is that you can get a message across, if it's funny it's all good! I know I did way back with UnNews:Obama: We're not responsible for drones with US Army emblem's actions, if you care to read. I'm nominating you for the Foolitzer Prize. The Pullitzer Prize has nothing on that!
Mattsnow 01:08, August 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Definitely. And much appreciated, man. I'm good with or without another Foolitzer at the moment but the nom is cool. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 06:11, August 8, 2012 (UTC)

UnNews Typo?
Do you want your UnNews article corrected to 'Mediocre athlete etc..' ? I can move the contents to a correctly spelt page and delete the original. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 06:04, August 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Whoops. Yeah that'd be helpful. Thanks. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 06:11, August 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Your signatures should connect to this page. That's is why your other sigs are going 'red linky'. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 11:08, August 8, 2012 (UTC)
- The red linky thing is just a joke, if that's what you're referring to. I could link it to this talk page if that's more useful for people though. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 23:11, August 8, 2012 (UTC)

A greeting
- Um. Howdy? --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 18:58, August 9, 2012 (UTC)
What?
I am none the wiser on this story. Can you let me know? I am also going to change the image you have used of the woman at the table as a precaution. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 12:41, August 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Not sure what you're missing here... all of that is completely fabricated and written from an imaginary perspective about an imaginary award. But to make things clear, nothing in the article has anything to do with the woman in the picture, if that's what you're worrying about. I suppose it is a good idea to remove it though. I don't think anyone would exactly be pleased about having their face slapped on an article like that (ha..). --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 18:57, August 9, 2012 (UTC)
- OK thanks for letting me know. An UnNews story should if possible link to a real one for others to get the joke (hence the link). It can be done as parody. I had some mileage with Tiger Woods/Tigger from Winnie the Pooh and his Swedish wife 'Pippi Longstocking' or my recent Facebook story where it would be compulsory for everyone to have an account or be branded a terrorist. Otherwise a story can end up 'timeless' which is ok for a general article here but in my view doesn't make it UnNews/news. Still, there is no rule on UnNews about that, I am just expressing my own view. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 06:41, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- On another point. I did ask you to link your sig to your own page. Putting around broken links when you leave a comment on a page is becoming a bit annoying. You can change your sig - others do it every other day - but the they keep a link so another user can find their discussion page and leave a message. So since I did ask before (with my admin hat on this time), can you do that in future? Thanks. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 06:43, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- His sig isn't broken, silly. It actually links to his page. He just put some magick in it to make it look like it was broked. :D ~ Fri, Aug 10 '12 6:52 (UTC)
- I made my point. All sigs - including ones on this page - shouldn't be broken red linkers. --
RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 07:35, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
- But they're not... Have you tried clicking on one? Unless you mean they can't even LOOK like redlinks, in which case, I admit I would thoroughly object to such a decision. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 08:12, August 10, 2012 (UTC)

- OK thanks for letting me know. An UnNews story should if possible link to a real one for others to get the joke (hence the link). It can be done as parody. I had some mileage with Tiger Woods/Tigger from Winnie the Pooh and his Swedish wife 'Pippi Longstocking' or my recent Facebook story where it would be compulsory for everyone to have an account or be branded a terrorist. Otherwise a story can end up 'timeless' which is ok for a general article here but in my view doesn't make it UnNews/news. Still, there is no rule on UnNews about that, I am just expressing my own view. --
No need for eye protection, it's the UnSignpost!

The state of the Wiki: Summer 2012
The biggest news of the week this week is that there isn't any news whatsoever, sure there are a few forums in the dump that promise to radically shake up the way everyone edits Uncyclopedia, or at least change it slightly. But for the most part there is no news, which always comes as a great relief to everyone in the UnSignpost office as it means that we can spend this week drivelling about pointless minutia and thus crawl that one vital step closer to death. The state of the wiki is this: nobody is voting for half of the monthly awards. This is naturally a cause of great concern for everybody, the prevailing feeling being that somebody should be nominating and voting for people on these awards, but we'd rather it wasn't us. Nobody is happy with the current VFS system, but nobody can agree on anything to change it to, so the current VFS system has remained with he proviso that everyone sneer about how unfair it is every time it is used. This periodical has already chronicled the appalling miscarriage of justice that allows administrators extra votes on VFS so it with an air of surprise that the UnSignpost can now bring to you a proposal to let administrators run everything. Uncyclopedia's 29th wordy controversy filled blockbuster of the year suggests that the admins run everything because they are the most thorough and most experienced users, the voting section of the same forum being filled with comments from admins saying "Tl;dr" and "I can't be bothered to read your entire essay", hand these splendid fellows the keys to city immediately, the UnSignpost implores you to entrust the administrative body with any nuclear codes or state secrets you might have, safe in the knowledge that they will never ever be looked at. Thekillerfroggy has solved the problems of the Worst 100 list by skipping 60 reflections and justifying it with a cliché, absolutely nobody notices and continues adding reflections about themselves and why they are adding a reflection to the list. Modusoperandi adds an actual reflection to the list causing the universe to begin collapsing in upon itself. The final and most grave piece of news is that Uncyclopedia is critically low in images of boobs, totalling only 634 pictures in the boob images category, now either some of you aren't correctly categorising your images of boobs, or there is a serious problem. Socky, who long ago took on the arduous and time consuming task of auditing the boob images category said "How I Uncyclopedia Needs More Vandals Yeah, you heard me, <insert name here>. Uncyclopedia needs more vandals. Why, you may ask. Why would we need more annoying basement-dwellers to ban? Well, I'll tell you. As all of you may have noticed, Uncyclopedia has been going through some inactivity lately, to the point where users who haven't signed on since who knows when are becoming more active on the site than users who check the website everyday. It seems our competitor has been gaining more activity than us, and we can't let that happen, now can we? There's only one way to get our activity back up: recruit vandals. Most vandals are EDiots anyway (of course, the best vandals are admins), so if we attract some vandals here, maybe they'll attract some more writers! And... er... Second thought, we don't need more vandals. Vandals suck and they should die. |

Your sig
If you want your sig to actually look like a redlink, then you might want to use this:

Just a bit of code I stole from Kirb's old sig. You're welcome. ~[ths] UotM

- Hey pretty cool. So it actually behaves like a redlink I see? I think I'll pass on it for now though because I don't want it to appear as if someone has actually already visited one of my multiple identities.. But I'll keep it in mind. Thanks. --User:Fishalishalish?action=edit&redlink=1 23:32, August 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, I think I see now. Well, you could just do
<span class="nounderlinelink"></span>to make the underline not appear at all. Or you could leave it as it is. Anyway, thanks for considering. ~[ths] UotM

Don't mention the merger
The UnSignpost office is always busy, the phones ringing, the journalists writing, the constant clamouring of eager interview candidates and our editor daydreaming all of the above into existence. If anyone else came through the office every week there wouldn't be room for the crippling loneliness that forms such a massive part of our lives. The same, alas, cannot be said for UnBooks Author of the Month and UnScripts Playwright of the Month whose complete lack of any activity has resulted in them both being rolled into writer of the month. Why is this news? Because it means less voting and if there's less voting there must be less democracy, that's just common sense. Responsible for this dastardly plot is none other than Simsilikesims, you all know Simsilikesims, she's the person who wrote the content warning which we now see approximately six times a day. If you didn't know how content warnings worked before you definitely do now. Simsilikesims has had a number of these good ideas and it's likely that shortly we shall see her malevolent intent, possibly in the form of combining the UnTunes namespace with the mainspace because not enough people are singing their articles in the style of Dragonforce or however it is those people who don't understand magnetic fields sing their songs. What would an intolerable loss of the right of Uncyclopedians to let parts of the wiki fall into a state of abandonment and disrepair be without Thekillerfroggy to swing the hammer of despair? Hoping nobody would notice TKF also decided to smite Reviewer of the Month into the ether. RotM is an award that literally nobody was ever interested in... It's also the only award I've ever won twice, so don't mind me, I'll just be over here sobbing while I look through the archives of the first award I ever won... In other news Mattsnow has stepped down as UnNews' biggest cheese. The war to replace him is now on, the choice being between GlobalTourniquet and a machine who will plaster something onto the front page every so often, a machine and nobody at all. We here in the UnSignpost office haven't quite decided which we prefer and have ultimately decided to vote for Batman instead. Batman has a grappling hook to reach hard-to-reach places, sneaks around wearing leather and is a complete social retard while he's doing the job, in other words he's perfect for the position. If he can save Gotham from the Joker then we have absolute confidence in his ability to read articles and then put them in a template on a fairly regular basis. Do you have an opinion? Too bad, because you don't get a say; GlobalTourniquet started doing the whole thing last Saturday. Happy Thursday! The feature feature
"VFH sucks right now." proclaims the banner that greets all visitors to the VFH page. We've all seen it, probably whilst passing through and very pointedly not visiting VFP which is now beginning to resemble the immediate aftermath of a Nuclear event. However, this reporter has come up with an alternative explanation: it isn't VFH that sucks, it's all of you, and by extension all of us, which also happens to be all of me. Uncyclopedians, famous for their flame wars and constant douchebaggery seem to have come to the conclusion that when on VFH that it's better not to vote than to disagree. What else could account for the 15 plus voter turnout for articles that we all agree are fantastically well written/crafted, while articles which may well be of high quality, but bear the title "UnNews:Politicians politicise the filing system of plumbing the South-Eastern region of the Ukraine" struggle along, accruing 7 votes for before sitting on the feature queue until they die of old age. This alongside the fact that people can't be bothered means Thekillerfroggy is beside himself at the state of things. Why TKF? Because he seem to have appointed himself supreme worrier in-chief for VFH and is executing that duty by slapping increasingly urgent messages onto the page. "DON'T MAKE ME PUT IN CAPITALS" twitched Thekillerfroggy when approached by the UnSignpost about the latest message. How do we fix this? Voting, obviously, but it's more than that. Yes, you might only have time to vote on just one article, yes you are probably more likely to enjoy the article with 20 votes than 5, but unless you vote the articles with 5 votes will never have 20. There are lots of articles to vote on, but you have ages to do it in! This article has been there for a month and has managed 10 votes. Twitter managed 17 in 5 days! Are you people pulling our balls? Don't make us use the awe inspiring powers of caps lock to get our way, VOTE NOW! |

My "coming out"
Hey girlfriends! This week the UnSignpost puts the "Queen" in "Drama Queen" as it discusses the issues which are literally the bomb. The biggest bomb this week, besides how darling our UnSignpost correspondents look in their new outfits, is that Zombiebaron wants the wiki to improve, this means deleting most of it and playing trivia on IRC. The bigger news is that PoofyOnTheRadio also wants the wiki to improve, this means not playing trivia on IRC and sending editors out onto the internet in order to sell their bodies to Google in the hopes that this will increase traffic to the wiki. These squabbles are ultimately self-defeating, while we are arguing amongst ourselves whether or not we ought to change the beginner's guide into an 20 minute video and a fireworks display we still haven't managed to do anything. What we have decided is that articles can be deleted with less than +5 votes to delete and that RAHB is very good at trivia if nothing else. The other big news from weeks ago is that Mattsnow has stopped being in charge of UnNews after a period of however long it is he has been doing that. Shabidoo who loves to do "zany" stuff so he can get into the UnSignpost, has created an extra forum to ensure that absolutely nobody thanks Mattsnow and instead demonstrates just how hilarious they are. Congratulations to Zombiebaron who came out with the completely obvious joke before anyone else. Finally GlobalTourniquet, the new UnNews Quasar (by appointment of himself) is open to criticism... and penis, lol. VFHarassment
Remember the heady days of two weeks ago when we told you all to feel very bad because VFH didn't have enough nominations. Well forget that because now it does and we can move our sensationalist bandwagon elsewhere. Where better to send it than Pee review, currently known as the namespace that isn't a namespace that time forgot. Five reviews for the entire month of August demonstrates that nobody really seems particularly interested in assisting the review process. It might take a little while to do a Pee Review but there is a reason we have the space. It is of particular concern as we have a list of people who are supposed to be doing reviews at least once a month, myself included. Where are we? Who knows, but we certainly aren't perusing the list of articles awaiting review. Let's go over there! Let's bring Thekillerfroggy who can put a stern template at the top of the page and insist that this is hugely important to the wiki, guess what.... IT IS!!! Also there is likely to be a new VFS this month, bring on the voting, it makes everything better!
Why, again, are we counting to a million? Ever since 2008, Uncyclopedia has had a tradition of counting to a million. Started by Spang, this tradition has been going on for nearly five years. However, recently the question was asked relating to the value of the forum, with users complaining that it was "completely devoid of humor" and that it turns smart users into idiots. After mass protest (okay, not really) from the contributors of the thread and from someone else, said users commented on the forum saying that counting to a million is why so many articles supposedly suck nowadays and it's also why VFH is completely empty. It has also been stated that only idiots would do it. So now I'm attempting to answer it as quickly as I can: that's the point. We're idiots and we know that we're never going to make it to a million, but we want to see how close we can get anyway. So if you are the type of idiot that would write for Uncyclopedia, feel free to assist us in our count to one million, or close to. |

We are all doomed, and it's Wikia's fault
It's been a quiet four months at Uncyclopedia, our hometown, out here on the edge of the prairie, and it's not just because Wikia have murdered everyone and are currently bathing in golden tubs filled with their blood. It seems Uncyclopedia has lost more users than John Travolta has lost gerbils up his own butt[citation needed], but fear not, Uncyclopedians-who-have-been-here-less-than-one-month! Long-time wunderkind and beloved administrator Frosty (sorry, are we laying it on too thickly?) has a plan to save us, and it involves... getting himself run over by a car. Ha ha! Actually, he posted a forum topic, accompanied by a vote, because that's what Uncyclopedians do in times of crisis, and it always works. Forum:Petitions to make all our users that quit comeback attempts to galvanize Uncyclopedia's remaining users to action by reminding them that we used to have members, Oh! so many members! Most of whom were better than us! Please sign a petition asking them back—sign, you ungrateful todgers, like your lives depend on it—and then email them all on the 14th! In theory, the people receiving said emails will return to Uncyclopedia with smiles on their faces and bliss in their hearts. In practice, however, the plan has been difficult to implement. And by "difficult", we mean "slightly impossible". A frustrated user has narrowed the plan's failure to three causes:
As it turns out, Wikia has limited the number of emails users can send to each other to ONE PER BLOODY DAY, rendering Frosty's scheme to bury our departed users under an avalanche of spam all for naught. As of Monday, November 19, exactly two departed users have been persuaded to return by the campaign, and nobody likes Kakun or Oliphaunte anyway, because they are useless puddles of suckage. It's just as well; most current Uncyclopedians are slightly too drunk to notice that putting a running chainsaw against one's neck is a bad idea, much less understand what the petition is all about. At any rate, if you haven't accidentally decapitated yourself with a chainsaw, do have a look at that forum, and if necessary, make yourself one or two (or forty) sockpuppets, just to spam those long-departed users of ours. The Cabal Wills It.* *(Note: There Is No Cabal) Frosty is dead.
No, you read that wrong, he is just dead inside. Earlier this month, Frosty nearly had the shit murdered out of him by a car. Luckily, as Frosty is a typical Australian teenager, he was protected from serious harm by his protein-based exoskeleton and his thick layer of poisonous, mucosal warts. The car is expected to recover in time for the rematch; in an interview with our correspondent, the car shouted numerous dark threats while leaping onto a turnbuckle and shredding its T-shirt. In the interim, Frosty has been resting comfortably with the aid of codeine, alcohol, and oral favors from the Asian transsexuals arrayed at his feet. "I find Uncyclopedia no longer holds the same draw for me as it did before," said Frosty, "especially since I've been getting oral favours from these Asian transsexuals arrayed at my feet." So weep, all ye who read this, for Frosty has joined the ranks of the undead, despised by God and abhorred by the God-fearing. On the upside: he can now appreciate those movies about sparkly vampires. On the downside: he wants our blood. RUN! Return of the Prodigal Son
Hearts and minds were filled with joy last month by the tentative return of beloved Uncyclopedian Bizzeebeever, who became scarce in July, leaving behind a terse apology for "having no money for Internetting". Current Uncyclopedia ghost Lyritha was heard to say "Buckets, remind me who that is, again..." before floating away down a corridor, moaning and rattling chains. Or rather, she would have, if ghosts were real, and if we'd asked her. Bizzeebeever's return is said to augur good tidings for the wiki, even though his current contributions consist of pointless pot-shots at Wikia, and short, pithy remarks left on talk pages, such as "fuck you, I hope you are dead", and "please disregard the previous comment, my penis was caught in a pencil sharpener". He also lurks for hours on IRC, talking and playing UnTrivia by himself. It will surprise no one at all that Bizzeebeever is now the person most accomplished at playing with himself; when we asked Zombiebaron about Bizzeebeever's remarkable dominance of a game that no one else plays, he was heard to remark "Zombiebaron", which our interpreters took to mean "Can someone please ban that guy? I am too lazy to do it myself." We at the Unsignpost do hope that Bizzeebeever holds on to his current position as Head of Quality Assurance at the dildo factory, for we have missed his hilarious forum posts almost as much as we missed his habit of talking himself up in the Unsignpost ...and his limpid blue eyes ...and his silky-soft golden locks ...and the charmingly-gnarled 40 kg tumor jutting from his neck—you know the one, it resembles the offspring of a blood tangerine and a baboon, and contains both hair and teeth...? (That might be his head; we're not sure.) Anyway, yes, we all love Bizzeebeever, and we hope he stays "returned", at least until the judge decides whether to hold him indefinitely, or just chemically castrate him, for the safety of the public. Return of the OTHER Prodigal Son
This past week, another intermittent Uncyclopedia member (and full-time Mensch-in-Chief), TKF, returned to swear at SPIKE; delete articles which had even votes on VFD; ban people; feature an article with one "For" vote, one "Against" vote, and one comment on VFH; and be a generally hilarious excuse for an administrator. We all want to be you when we grow up, TKF! |

No, Uncyclopedia has not gotten religion; it's still full of degenerates, wang vandals, and that scourge of gay men everywhere: uncensored images of boobies. However, it has seen a recent influx of old and new users, most of whom apparently never got the memo about how Uncyclopedia sucks, or how Uncyclopedia is dying, or how Uncyclopedia will be contagious for another six weeks before the amoxicillin starts working. Returning recently like a scorching case of gonorrhea were Meganew (!), Socky, NoNamesLeft (to the everlasting delight of Frosty), and Master of Menageries Comicat1, who took a six-month sabbatical to invent preposterous new animals on the Serengeti. New users include Sinner George, MagicBus, Leverage, Fakehater and Kamek98, who have all taken to editing like ducks take to water—of course proving that they are all sockpuppets of someone, for which they will all be perm-banned, just as soon as Frosty can figure out who. Lastly but not leastly, we celebrate the arrival of the ridiculously competent Murder Frog, who brings expertise on influential musicians of the last century, but, more importantly, has the most awesome name since the Universe itself birthed Captain Machinegun Thunderpants Fuckmaster on a pile of slaughtered tigers. The UnSignpost welcomes them, one and all, and hopes that their tranquilizers don't wear off while they still remember how to leave. Obituary for a friend
Thanksgiving came and went on Uncyclopedia this past week, and while the rest of the world was busy cracking jokes about how Americans really don't need to throw a holiday as an excuse for eating, a certain Uncyclopedia tradition was busy getting beaten, raped, and left for dead in the compost-bin of memory. Yes, we were referring to the Aristocrat's Turkey Day Ball; how did you know? For those of you who don't remember, or don't want to remember (we assume that's all of you), the Aristocrat's Turkey Day Ball was the once-mighty celebration of sex-, torture- and scat-based humor so debauched and vile that it would shame a London dockside whore, and not a fresh young one, either—one that had been "fucked around the fleet". Sadly, no one even remembered the damn thing until two days before Thanksgiving, and when Uncyclopedia's favorite whipping boy brought up the subject in a forum, he was met by a silence so vast that we assume he fell into it, because we haven't seen him since. Being Kip, though, he'll probably pop back up through a sewer grate somewhere. Swim hard, Kip. The ATDB left no survivors; its limp corpse will be thoroughly sexually abused, its intestines torn apart and worn around necks like Christmas garland, and its remains will be fed to a freshly no-legged midget with a massive dildo rammed up his butt. Damn you, Mhaille and Zombiebaron, you lazy useless fucks. Esoteric bullshit
A certain faithful UnSignpost reader recently noted via electronic signal that the UnSignpost's last edition was both "spam" and "esoteric bullshit". We Here At the UnSignpost™ were, to be frank, shocked and dismayed by this statement, for it was never our intent to be anything but the most outrageously stupid, inane, crass, vulgar, rude, boorish, inbred, brain-dead, emotionally-stunted, anti-literate, fucked-up and all-around retarded puddle of gassy splooge east or west of the Mississippi—or any river, for that matter. In this endeavor, however, it seems we have failed. Yes, someone has beat us to it, and by a wide margin, for he is the undisputed champion of such sculduddery. So we offer up our most heartfelt apology to that reader, who shall remain nameless (it was Hotadmin4u69), and we humbly admit that we stand in awe of his ability to pick the gayest user name possible, not once, but twice. However, while we wish him the best of luck in disentangling his dental retainer from his own scrotum, we would like to remind him of the famous adage, Never quarrel with a man who buys ink by the barrel. |

A headline goes here! No, really!
Well, it's that time of the month when you realize you've wasted another 30 days in the company of Uncyclopedians, and your wife or girlfriend metamorphoses into a giant man-eating banana and rampages through Kuala Lumpur while screaming about "cramps". But cheer up, Mister Cratchit! Eet's Christmas toime! Yes, time to purchase meaningless junk for people you hate, give freely to homeless assholes who are too lazy to work for their own money, and get drunk with other people you hate, because the economy is in the shitter, and if you ain't buying, you're with the terrorists! And now that I've reminded you of your long-lost Christmas spirit, it's time to remind you of something we like to call "VFS"! Yes, VFS is upon us again, and with it come several calls to op some twit named "Bizzeebeever". We Here At The UnSignpost™ can't think of anything that would benefit the wiki less, unless it was feeding live badgers through a blender inside Wikia's datacenter, or perhaps marking the words "UNCYCLOPEDIA HATES JIMBO" onto a large paper bag, filling it with our own feces, lighting it afire, and dropping it through an open window at the headquarters of the Wikimedia Foundation. Or perhaps renting a hot-air balloon and filling its ballast tanks with liquid sewage and flying over the house of one James Q. Wales, Esq. Or perhaps sacrificing virgins on a beach under a full moon, nude, while blasting Slayer from massive speakers while a Coast Guard boat rakes the sand with machine-gun fire...um, where were we again? Ah, yes! The idiots over at VFS are on about something. You should go vote "no".
This week, MAJOR NEWS happened, and as usual, our correspondents were on it quicker than Kirstie Alley on a meat sandwich, or a meat pie, or anything made of meat, really. We are happy to report that longtime useless slacker and IRC lurker RAHB checked out a book from a local library! (Please suppress your exclamations of shock and dismay, folks; the neighbors are still complaining about the Coast Guard-assisted virgin sacrifice). When we inquired about RAHB's first foray into intellectual enrichment since his early childhood, he summarized it as follows:
As you can see, RAHB is a consummate intellectual, and a man among beasts. Stay tuned for next week, folks, when Zombiebaron Hears a Who! Same Bat-Channel, same Bat-Time!
The last two editions of the UnSignpost, which were the first editions published since the last editor came down with a case of exploding lung-weasels and threw himself off a cliff, contained 150% more fucking swear-words and 6000% more hyperventillating about things which are going to kill us all (such as Wikia, you knew it was going to be Wikia, because fuck Wikia). However, most of the 700 complaints we've received in the last two weeks (all of which were from Hotadmin4u69, and 699 of which included candid shots of his genitals[1]) concerned the lack of the UnSignpost dog, who we cheerfully claimed had been murdered and turned into soup. (If you hadn't noticed, go back and check. We'll wait.) This, of course, was an outrageous and unforgivable ploy on our parts to get your attention, and we apologize for it profusely; we promise never again to threaten or even joke about violence against dogs, especially since the SPCA's hired thugs know where we live. So here you are, folks: this week's edition of this glorious rag will go back to the usual tradition of featuring a charming dog who is in no peril at all: Oops.

Sloppy, falling-apart, and duct-taped-together: the UnSignpost!
The Newspaper With No Ambitions, Goals, Hopes or Dreams!
Dec 12th, 2012 • Issue 178 • Only wild horses can tear me apart.

I was asked to write a guest editorial, so let's get this over with. In the spirit of the Christmas and/or Holiday Season, I would like to offer an olive branch of peace. We could all use a little more peace around here. Well, not here, per se, because drama is always welcome amusement for me. More so than in places like the Middle East—the Middle East needs to calm the fuck down and Uncyclopedia needs to be more like the Middle East is what I'm trying to say. Still, drama isn't always amusing. For example, I won't be on the front page next month (I mean, if (point for humility) I win an award) because someone is having a pissy-fit over some bollocks and removed the awards from the front page. In this particular case, we need to pee on the fire, rather than fan the flames. The conflict I'm referring to is between two celebrated users, Thekillerfroggy and SPIKE. The root of this tension stems from the fact that TKF thinks SPIKE is the worst person ever and should leave this site, or at least stop sucking his own dick. Basically, SPIKE is to TKF what Toby is to Michael on The Office. Particularly if there were a British equivalent to Toby. God, that's a good show. Or was. It really blows now. Let me just say that you both have your faults. TKF: You need to stop being a dick, even when it is more hilarious than when it isn't. You appear to be in a drunken rage. I realize it's Hanukkah, but you should really tone it down on the whine. And SPIKE: Well, I just think you're a textbook case of someone who needs to masturbate more. I suggest you start December 25th, when you're having a less-than-sufficient amount of fun reading my holiday-themed articles. Despite these differences, you both have one thing in common: You're Uncyclopedians. And the essence of being an Uncyclopedian is appreciating the art of Comedy. When the world is at its darkest, we rely on the light of humor, parody and satire. Some have said that Uncyclopedia is at its darkest point right now, that our brightest days are far behind. Yet if the annual winter solstice teaches us anything, it's that the brightest days always follow the darkest nights. Or some sugary moral message like that. I mostly just wanted to drop a few horrible puns and get away with insulting you both all over the site. Merry Christmas! Today's date is significant!
Because Joey Numbers has his first feature, Wikia are censoring cocks, and it's 12/12/12. That's why, bitches. Uncyclopedia and social nutworking! Do you have a lame sense of humor that is best expressed in 140 characters or less? Do you enjoy ruining the mojo of entire websites? Do you have a tiny penis, or none at all? Then have we got news for you! Those of you who wish to do a better job of misrepresenting Uncyclopedia on all the popular social platforms, including YouBoob, Twatter, Facebutt, StubbleUpon, Porntrest, Cumblr, Spreddit, and all the others, are hereby invited to hit up Hotadmin4u69's talk page, and to do it forthwith, post-haste. Why? Because Hotadmin4u69 runs Uncyclopedia's social networking presenceses...es, all by his lonesome—or at least he did...until now. But he's NOT GONNA TAKE IT, HE'S NOT GONNA TAKE IT, HE'S NOT GONNA TAKE IT, ANYMOOOOOOOOOOOAH! No, seriously, he's going to quit the wiki entirely (as if he hasn't already) if people don't lend him a hand. He loves you all, but you all suck, and it's a thankless task—almost as thankless as writing and delivering this drivel every week. |

Apocalypse postponed until after NFL playoffs
This week, it was publicly confirmed for the first time that the on-again-off-again Apocalypse has been postponed indefinitely, due to an accumulation of frozen water in and about the subterranean headquarters of Heck, Incorporated. Yes, it appears that Uncyclopedia's dwindling community of degenerates and failed comedy writers (which is literally the same thing, but never mind), having suffered far too long under the Wikian lash of nipple-and-dick censorship, have finally gotten their shit together[citation needed], and are making a move to new hosting. News of the move came in Uncyclopedia's Village Dump, as part of a nonchalant post by Lyrithya, who returned to the site from her current job as a human spiderweb to stun, confound, and enrage exactly two people with her announcement. When asked why she chose now to de-bag her cat, instead of waiting for a more opportune moment (such as, y'know, after the fucking move actually happened), Lyrithya had this to say: "I was drunk." Salient words, indeed, which show she is an Uncyclopedian through-and-through, and which afford the rest of us an overwhelming sense of confidence in the Uncyclodepia Moving Company. Yes. However, while We Here At The UnSignpost™ lounge about and poke fun, you may rest assured that the technicians at Up With Uncyclodepia have not been taking it easy. It's been eleven months of back-breaking work out on the wiki farm, getting up at the crack of noon to shovel out the cow coop, milk the chickens, and slap the sheep for indulging in indelicate thoughts. According to an anonymous source at the highest level of Uncyclopedia's labyrinthine network of cabals, the move quite definitely, absolutely, without a doubt, will be happening at some distant point in the very near future, probably maybe, just as soon as all the ducks are lined up in convenient rows so that they can be loaded onto trains and sent to special camps. When we asked what the bloody devil this meant, we were told to shut up and move along, and that there is no cabal, which we admit must be true, as we have heard it so many times. So, to recap: Uncyclopedia is leaving Wikia for greener pastures, and as most things undertaken by Uncyclopedians happen, it will be slap-dash, semi-competent, and will probably result in everyone involved hating each other to the death, hopefully with the assistance of swords, horses, and heavy artillery. Reaction to the news!
As of press time, the list of Uncyclopedians furious at having been left out of all the fun could not be reached for comment, but are assumed to be boiling with righteous indignation. To make sense of the week's stunning development, we were able to get hold of an expert on all things frozen and hellish: Sumerian demon-king and devil-about-town, Pazuzu. "I was just doing what I usually do," said he, "by which I mean I was hanging out in some northeastern American town, whispering into the ear of a nondescript loner that guns are fun and kids love fun, and hey wouldn't it be cool if you combined the two?, when I heard that Uncyclopedia was leaving Wikia! I said shit, motherfucker! and ran over there as quick as I could to shut that shit down, but it was too late. And now my home Down Under is encased in ice. Man, some days you're the dog, and some days you're the fire hydrant, know what I mean?" We really didn't, but as we have always enjoyed not being frogs, and would prefer to maintain that state, we nodded furiously and thanked our interviewee for his time. Newbies! Protect them, love them, they are our future! Heil Newbies!
How often has someone started a forum 'We're Doomed' or 'Where Domed' , and other variations of the announcement 'this website has moved away from my idea of what is funny' ? So what we can do here, but celebrate a clutch of new fully fledged contributors who arrived on our shores, all fresh and well-scrubbed! In recent months, we had Leverage produce articles faster than bindweed, and now he has joined by the likes of MagicBus (an admirer of The Who or a kaftan nostalgic?), news hound Bill Melater, and the ferocious Fakehater, who will rip your arms off if he detects you're a phony. Then there is Murder_Frog, who swears blind he is unrelated to another amphibian. (Evidently the lily pond is big enough for two croakers.) Another newbie who is currently taking a keen interest in Singapore is CDPCCNAC. What the name means, I have no idea, but perhaps he is wise to leave so few clues about his true identity. Then there is our own Mr Tambourine Man, Equilateralperil. Moving closer to the ground, looking for literary earthworms in his search for Sonic the Hedgehog-related stories, is Igotnothing, whilst from the Land of Connery is Dannyboy1209. A noob with ambition, Danny has already asked to become an admin and has nominated himself for everything. With an attitude like that, this one is going places—here, there or everywhere. Who will become the Noobs of Noobs and win something to stick on their bedroom door? The jury is out, and so am I, tonight. Go ahead, check these fledglings out here. |

Vote! Or else!
Is it that time of year again? It's the time when everyone celebrates the people who are the most remarkable amongst us at everything except what matters. It's time for Writer of the Year, Uncyclopedian of the Year and Useless Gobshite of the Year. These compliment our small selection of awards: WotM, UotM, PotM, NotM, AotM, RotM, EGA, FP, PWotM, ANOTM, Top 10 o' the month, UGotM, VFH, VFD, VFS and VFP. Not forgetting of course to all the userspace awards. Writer of the Year got off to a splendid start when Aleister in Chains nominated Funnybony and SPIKE for the award by writing brief but poignant marriage proposals to both of them. Thank goodness for Aleister, if not for him the wider world might have assumed we weren't all massive girls. Since then Thekillerfroggy nominated Xamralco, who was not able to express his appreciation due to a serious case of not editing the wiki any longer. As always what should be a rigorous heterosexual competition involving manly pursuits like backstabbing, lies, blackmail and threats is being irretrievably compromised by people like Aleister and Shabidoo; people whose sole purpose on the awards pages is to make everybody else feel bad about not noticing other people. Uncyclopedian of the Year is being lead by Romartus, Uncyclopedia's voting-in-chief. Shockingly, he was also nominated by Aleister who, as it turns out, is gayer than Christmas, apparently Romartus makes him "Proud to be an uncyclopedian", he makes "Legendary votes on VFH" and gives "Legendary hand relief". Potatochopper of the Year is a more subdued and manly affair, where absolutely nobody has been nominated at all... it's like reviewer of the month were moved to a different page name. Hopefully Aleister or Shabidoo will nominate someone soon, we here at the UnSignpost have gone to the trouble of writing the nomination for them: "<insert name here> has made many fantastic images, at least two of which I have made love to on at least nineteen occasions. My genitals ache for them every single evening and someday they will make my dreams come true and love me! Also Olipro sucks balls." Olipro was the only nominee for Useless Gobshite of the Year (insert your own joke here), but Zombiebaron quickly joined him in ignominy. Please go vote for both of them so they may end up tied, and share the prize (a year's supply of toilet paper) on their revolving bed built entirely from used condoms and KY bottles. From the desk of the Cabal: 2013 is the year of subservience
Once again you all stand before us, another year of failure behind you and another year of subjugation ahead of you. The non-existent Cabal would like to wish you all a happy New Year. All Once again you have failed us, utterly and completely. Last year we advised you all that resistance was utterly unnecessary and, if anything, we have had to tolerate 0.22% more resistance, we have heard you discuss and then decide to leave our kind benefactors, whilst promoting several of your own number to within the cabal in an effort to encourage dissent and democracy within our ranks. We saw you continue to tinker with that which does not concern you whilst simultaneously complaining when people are warned about the indecent images you propagate amongst your number. It seems prudent to remind you that if we delete every single template, every single image and every single forum your freedom will only increase. It is not what some of you have foolishly referred to as "overly deletionist", it is streamlining and it is good for all of you. It is with vague optimism that we note that you continue to strive at a barely satisfactory level, you have certainly earned a small fraction of the baubles and trinkets that have been handed out over the past year. It has not escaped our notice that the Worst 100 Reflections on 2012 only closed on time this year due to Thekillerfroggy skipping sixty of the reflections, we are gratified to note that Roman Dog Bird had practically no input on the list and very few of them regard uncontrolled outbreaks of creativity and morale, such dangerous forces must be carefully rationed and controlled. Cutting of corners and a blatant disregard for regulations do not amuse the Cabal. Now we must inexorably turn our attentions to 2013 and the promise it brings. All users should note that due to several security compromises over the last few months movement throughout the Uncyclopedia complex has been restricted during the hours of darkness. Where major editing is to take place you must ensure that you have faxed the appropriate forms to your divisional liaison officer prior to commencing work, failure to do so will result in an unacceptable breakdown in bureaucracy. Uncyclopedia must prevail, editors must remember that without patient mind numbing work and servitude we can never accomplish our ultimate goal of... well, that need not concern you. That is all citizens, you may now return to your allocated taskings. |
