Posting

You posted to my IP, criticizing my edits. I haven't edited anything here recently. If you actually do have a criticism of my edits, be specific. Unlike your generic complaints, I actually put thought into anything I edit. Perhaps you posted a message to my IP by mistake. But I won't assume that. Yes, I know about the four-tilda policy.

I have not posted anything to your IP (that I can see). I asssure you that anything I do post is specific. Perhaps you are using a differet computer or IP at the moment. If possible could you leave a link to the message here so I can help there.:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 12:33, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

Why was the fake category box on the Classic Oscar Wilde Page Deleted

Is there a reason why the fake category box was deleted?--Mnbvcxz 23:38, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

The reason to have categories is to categorize - This is needed to keep the place running smoother and some of the maintenence jobs to be done - it would be preferable if you left this aspect of things alone, thanks.--Sycamore ( Talk ) 11:45, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Is there a reason why the page can't have a fact category box?--Mnbvcxz 00:28, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Add any further "Real" categories to that superb article you feel like - I ask that you keep the "Article subpage" category:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 15:34, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


It's a good thing

...That that ridiculous Lazytown page was finally deleted and redirected.--68.217.132.151 00:47, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

...dude, seriously, lay off. I don't know why you keep doing this. Trying to pretend you're a different person, or a different user? Actually, I'm not even sure if you're trying. Also, by the way, I put the VFD tag on that page. Mostly because of the way you're acting, but also because there was a better page out there. Come back when your ban is over and try again. --Mr. Monkey Sockmonkey.gif Pant-hoot here. 02:12, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Articles by noobs

I've put construction templates onto UnNews:JD from scrubs gets stricken off medical record. It might have potential if the author bothers to come back and add more interesting content. How should I treat such stuff in future? Codeine gave me a Ninja Star. I try to live up to it and take a peek at Recent Changes from time to time. The trouble is I'm still a bit noobish. I don't know what to do with stuff that needs work to get it up to Uncyclopedia standard. Proxima Centauri 17:24, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

I would not put constuction templates on pages (thats generally speaking for the authors to do), I use ICUs - these are added like this {{ICU|~~~~~|sub=option}} with options like {{ICU|~~~~~|sub=encyclopedic}} for instance. However the article should ideall be tagged on the day of creation (although yo can tag within seven days, I have never done that though). For artices that are older you can use ones like {{Fix}}, {{Expand}} or {{Idea}}.

It is better to try and ICU though, and categorize if the article survives as once tagged otherwise poor articles tend to sit around (which is bad). Nice revert work by the way - I've seen you take down some real tossers. There is loads of stuff here (though you'll have to sift through until you find the stuff you want) UN:CP - you'll find loads of stuff you can do to help with the boring stuff. Hope this helps:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 17:38, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

You briefly tickled the ivories, sir

Of the bastion of good taste that is BBC Radio 4. I know you are a fellow of refinement and I appreciate your improvements. If your bone is tickled then I am not so unself-centred and wary of the word "article-whore" to request a tiny tick in the appropriate VFH box. Yes, I'm really pleased with this, but there are a lot of Brit-centric, or even Brit-middle-class-centric gags in it, so it needs a bit of polish and support from fine upstanding citizens such as yourself.

Was wondering if you had a bot style script set up to do it - by hand, I understand, I wouldn't even attempt it myself! --UU - natter UU Manhole.gif 14:27, Nov 3
Seeing as its about eighty, you could maybe set up system for 2/4 people to do it manually - though there are three users with bots, it seems a little doo lally to have users do this?--Sycamore ( Talk ) 14:32, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Indeed - bugger the by-hand option. If I can't find a bot, I'll leave it. Cheers. --UU - natter UU Manhole.gif 14:40, Nov 3

a few questions

hello sycamore,

i was wondering have you ever had any hassle with the fellows from wikipedia, about any copyright crap. the most of them seem to be highly opinionated and love blocking anything thats not mainstream they cant seem to give good reasons for this . have you ever put any of these sorry pricks down afew pegs ?? well done for an exellent page and ill be telling my good mates here in suoth africa all about my new find regards robert schmidt --Dwnndog 19:33, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Well, I have not really found the folks at wikipedia to be too awful, Copyright laws are usually disregarded here - though your writing should be your own:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 19:38, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

UnSignpost: 3-ish November 2008

The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.

November 3rd-ish, 2008 • Twenty-Third Issue • Better than things that aren't as good!

Address Change: Return To Sender?
For those of you with your heads buried in the sand, or who choose to concentrate on writing articles, or who don't ever look at address bars, or who don't care: Uncyclopedia's domain name has been changed by evil communist oppressors Wikia.

If you are one of those people, here's a brief summary of the incident:

If you aren't one of those people, here's an even briefer summary:

More on this ongoing situation as we get it. Probably.

Glorious return to form for MrN!
The UnSignpost is pleased to be able to report that, after a two-month self-imposed embargo, popular poopsmith MrN9000 has made a glorious return to using underwear references in his daily conversation! The dam finally burst at 23.06 on Oct 22nd, and all those who know him could feel and share the relief, the release of that pent-up tension and the sheer untrammelled joy of their favourite user with a pair of tits in his sig.

Fellow poopsmith and genial man-about-town UU said of the momentous occasion: "you what? MrN? Oh yeah, him. Good bloke. Knows his underwear". Then he scratched his nose reflectively and wandered off.

MrN himself was unavailable for comment at the time of going to press/we couldn't be bothered to interview him (delete as you think applicable), but the UnSignpost fondly imagines he would have smiled enigmatically, raised an eyebrow quizzically, nodded appreciatively, and said "PANTS!" predictably.

The pants themselves were also unavailable for comment.

ive got to improve my page 'how to be a racist' as you said "This page seems to be lacking in humor or satire" i need some help with it because ill be going home today so if you dont mind can you ask some people to help out or something like that.

cheers. Dolubasao Jabangway 15:05, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

OK - it needs a little more work, now the best way to improve an article is to get an idea of what a good one is, and find out ways to improve your stuff. Have a read of these, Beginner's Guide, HTBFANJS and Uncyclopedia:Best of. These should hopfully help out and you should be able to improve your article a great deal. If theres a specific problem, just come by again:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 15:24, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

France pic?

You mind if I add this to the France article?

As scientists delve deeper into France, they find more and more new and amazing creatures...like this deep-Seine blow-fish.

It's stupid but I like it --Sir DJ ~ Irreverent OZ! Noobaward.jpg Wotm.jpg Unbooks mousepad.PNG GUN.png 04:32, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

I like it myself:) - having had a look over the article again, I don't persoanally think it would not fit too well (three looks right at this length) - I realize that this is a big title (having lots of links to it and revsions, indicatign popularity - also featured) however I feel that this version of France is pretty good - its focused and coherent unlike the the last one. Obviously it is extremely bad of me to try and run a monopoly - if you really like it I guess you can:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 09:42, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

???

Hey, This is wise guy responding to your complaint about my quotes. I really don't see what is so bad about them. They're just stating the opinion of a wise guy (aka jerk) on a topic. Personally i've seen some worse quotes everywhere and was wondering what the problem was.

Quotes = bad, quotes that referecne yourself = really bad. Write an article, don't add shitty edits/quotes to many articles.--Sycamore ( Talk ) 21:05, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
Ok I agree to stop but I want to clear stuff up. I wasn't referencing myself, I was referencing a "wise guy". I admit that I use it as my username but that was just because it was the approach I was taking. What was said is not what I believe or anything. But what really got me was the hate!!! Were they all really that bad? I thougt my crusade quote was rather good. Oh well wouldn't be the first time someone didn't like my sense of humor.--User:Wise Guy/sig 8:32, 11 November 2008 (CT)
For the people who maintain the site quotes are something trully despised - not you - don't take it bad. I have no doubt that you meant no harm with them and I hope you stick around, have fun:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 14:39, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

No.

Alright, the dead bodies of US soldiers isn't funny, and uneeded. I tried tagging the article with a Offend tag, but it was baleeted. Uncyclopedia is for the lulz, dancing on peoples graves isn't lulz. Very clear. Im going to revert it in a few days unless you have a better point.

Cheers. Dacheatcode 21:00, 10 November 2008 (UTC) Dictating content is not your place, I assume you mean the America article - keep vandalising the article you will be reverted an ultimaly banned for some time.--Sycamore ( Talk ) 21:05, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Please submit comments to my talk page, it saves me time. Anyway, your comment confuses me; are you implying that only Mods can modify pictures/artwork that really doesn't belong there? There wouldn't be much of a community then, now would there? There have been some remarks from other people on the picture.
As for my apparent "vandalism," i assure you that this was not. Vandalism is adding to the article with pointless crap such as blanking, or the LOLOLTEHMONEKYELOLOL. These were hopefully constructive edits. The first time, I added an offend tag, as it was offending. Then i del33ted the contreversial picture. However, if you still thought that was vandalism, you could use the edit summary. Thanks. Dacheatcode 01:07, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

UnSignpost: 13th November 2008

May contain traces of humor!

November 13th, 2008 • Issue 24 • So close to journalism you'll be hard pushed to know the difference!

Uncyclopedian does something vaguely noteworthy in "real life"
In an unprecedented development, Uncyclopedian 15Mickey20 has made a foray into media activity outside of the internets. Mickey, Uncyc's tennis correspondent, has been seen on popular-with-students-and-pensioners UK gameshow Countdown, operating under the pseudonym "Martin".

Mickey has so far failed to live up to Uncyclopedia's proudest traditions, by actually being quite good at the game. Indeed, at the time of writing, he'd won several games, including what he modestly described as "an awesome numbers game, beating Carol". He also shamelessly mentioned his connection to the site in a recent episode, leading to quite literally no extra edits to the Countdown article - still, thanks for the plug, Mick!

Having spent time in the company of such notable international icons as Des O'Connor (no, we don't have a page on him, so there's no link), Paul Zenon (nope, nothing on him either) and Suzy Dent (spotting a pattern here, non-UK readers?) Mickey is now Uncyclopedia's most prominent celebrity, and it's surely only a matter of time before he appears on Strictly Come Dancing or Celebrity Big Brother, and has a lurid kiss-and-tell exposé in Heat Magazine.

Various "...of the month" award candidates - November's in-depth analysis
Writer of the Month: There's a bumper crop of WotM candidates nominated this month for your voting delectation. The UnSignpost's own Gerrycheevers is the early favourite, having established a significant lead over this week's biopic star Mrmonkey72, several-time nominee SysRq, inactive-for-ages-but-funny Nydas, dark horse Knucmo2 and the multi-featured and multi-talented An Ape that Only Exists on Thursdays. But! There is still time, your votes can still make a difference! (Unless you've already voted, natch).

Uncyclopedian of the Month: Controversial nominees abound here, as serial ban collector Cajek goes head-to-head with Wikia corporate mouthpiece Sannse. The hyperactive one with the light blue sig is in the lead at present. But! As with certain other popular recent votes, there is a third candidate inexplicably attracting little attention - Dexter111344, a site maintenance and VFD stalwart. Who will win? Only you can decide (and all the other people who vote, obviously).

Noob of the Month: No-one. Yet. Find a noob doing something vaguely decent and nominate them please! Otherwise the UnSignpost may just have to bring back the ultimate dead horse for yet more flogging and nom Rcmurphy again.

Useless Gobshite of the Month: Kip the Dip is out on his own for this one so far. Having proved an exemplary gobshite for months on end, despite being cruelly denied the recognition of this award, the UnSignpost feels that his time is now, and is abandoning all pretence at unbiased journalism: VOTE KIP FOR UGotM!

Biopic of the Week

Mrmonkey72 is another stellar addition to the Uncyc ranks this year. This highly evolved simian's natural habitat seems to be UnNews, where he's settled with impressive speed, although he's not above writing the odd high quality article as well. And with a Foolitzer Prize and a WotM nom already under his belt, who knows how far he'll go?

VFD kept article of the week

Odd. Surely there's some potential here folks - one talented writer, or failing that anyone with enough time on their hands, might want to add copious sprinkles of funniness dust to this strange confection.

Glorious Return of the Week

Hey everyone, SysRq's back!

MrN9001 12:55, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Just passing

You might want to check the guidelines for using {{fix}} here. I think that means that if it's a notable subject (and the article is not total crap) it gets a rewrite rather than a fix. I noticed that RAHB recently kept Scouts after the WIP has expired, and you slapped fix on quickly afterwards. Not sure... Anyway it's probably not fair to through this back to the huff master wielding admins as it's escaped so recently... Have fun. Mr N MrN9000SouthParksmall.jpg 23:11, Nov 15

Yea, anyway... Sorry to nag. I added some pics and a few more links and it's fine now. Probably does not need any sort of template on it. You might have added {{AAP}}... Mr N MrN9000SouthParksmall.jpg 23:22, Nov 15
As you know I will aim to save more than I put up for deletion. I felt this one was pretty mediocre/obscure in potetial and poorly done - now the Fix one does not mean that an op has to delete it, but it does mean that new users think that it will. I prefer not to put articles in rewrite, it's the famous cry at the moment and theres now so many in the category. It makes sense to me to give plenty of time, but be a more keen to see improvemt in new pages?--Sycamore ( Talk ) 09:18, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Yea, I hear ya. Thing is, some admins are more deletion oriented than others. While say Led or Modus would keep it for sure, others might not. RAHB had the opportunity to huff it when the WIP expired and he choose to keep it too... I think of {{fix}} this way: If the article were put on VFD would it be deleted? If I don't think it would, I don't add a fix tag. Scouts probably would survive a VFD (that's only my guess obviously), so what's the point of sending it around the system again? Also as Scouts is a well know subject it's likely to get a fair amount of attention, and so will probably improve. If it were an article about a made up subject which only the author is probably going to edit then maybe it's a different story. Anyway... That's just my view. I'm sure ya know what you are doing. ;-) Oh, feel free to purge things from rewrite which should not be there. I did a pit of a purge of the category a while back, but it probably needs doing again.Mr N MrN9000SouthParksmall.jpg 01:34, Nov 17
Cool, I'll be a little easer going with the Fix template - with Rewrite, I'll see if theres anything I can do with it:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 13:08, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

UnSignpost: 20th November2008

Now with 20% more ninjas!

November 20th, 2008 • #100/4 • Sucking Journalism's Fat Wang. Badly.

UnSignpost Stumbles past 6 month milestone
Uncyclopedia's premier periodical, the UnSignpost, has somehow managed not to fade away and die for over 6 months, which should probably merit some kind of special edition, but meh.

In true UnSignpost fashion, the editors noticed this about 2 weeks late - the Signpost having been so gloriously conceived (and never was a word more aptly suited to this juvenile-as-all-get-out publication) by Dr. Skullthumper and Cajek back in early May. The first issue rolled off the presses on May 8th, bringing you such earth-shattering news as "Rcmurphy nommed for Noob of the Month again" and "Uncyclopedia F**king Doomed", as well as establishing Signpost tradition with "Spacefiller of the week" (something about Grand Theft Auto).

The editor's office here at USP should probably have had a revolving door installed, having been occupied at various times since Cajek and Skull abandoned it by THEDUDEMAN, Gerrycheevers, Heerenveen and some other numpty - although this is small change compared to the number of delivery bots and boys that have thrust the latest issue, still warm, through your letter flaps.

Over the months, many other contributors have helped to keep the UnSignpost in its deserved position of "only weekly-ish newspaper on the wiki" - possibly by being so lame that no-one wanted to bother doing another one. And, having brought you such shattering exclusives as "Wookiepedia Too Cool For Cajek", "Porn Wars End in Sticky Truce" and "RC takes home NotM", the UnSignpost shows no sign of speeding up.

Maybe one day, the unstoppable forces of apathy will finally overcome those who still labour under the impression that people actually care about seeing block log entries and biopics arrive on their talk page weekly, and the UnSignpost will grind to a halt. But until then, it will continue to bring you all the old news you've already seen somewhere else, whether you like it or not!

UnSportsPost

By ace sportshound Enzo Aquarius.

In response to quite literally some demand, your ever-topical, finger-on-the-pulse UnSignpost brings you all the latest sports news that's unfit to print!

  • NFL - Detroit Lions lost again bringing their record-breaking award-winning losing streak to 9, with their last notable points scored in the 2004 season. Lions followers are confident their team can break through once the team's brains are reverted back to Windows XP Basketball Edition. Big thumbs up and grins boys!
  • NHL - Unlike their Lion brethren, the Detroit Red Wings are in the lead, as always. Then again, their conference is full of NHL expansion filler, so what can you expect? But hey, San Jose is up as well, so uh...yeah...good for them. Good for them.
  • NBA - LA Lakers are up with no losses in their belt, but anybody east of LA doesn't care anyways. Uhhh....132 points scored by New York...good job guys.
  • Football/Soccer - See, there are so many freaking teams and conferences that you just can't keep track of all of them. Then again, Japan beat Syria 3-1. Talk about a non-stop action high-scoring game!
  • MLB - Training time, the high-gravity chamber has been set, Goku will be pitching. It's also time to bring in the young blood who will only play 1 game in the 2009 season.

Last heard from in any capacity on this site in January 2007, Imrealized was your WotM for September 2006, with an unheard-of-these-days 19 votes (and Severian liked him so much he voted for him twice). And with a triumvirate of articles like Paradise Lost, Smells Like Teen Spirit and Rorschach Inkblot Acid Test, (not to mention WWJJD?) it's easy to see why.

UnSignpost: 27th November2008

In Pure Russian Fashion, The Newspaper That Reads YOU!!

November 27th • Issue 26 • The newspaper it's tough to swat flies with

Uncyc shall go to the Ball!
The seasonal tang in the air, the anticipation on the faces of Uncyclopedians everywhere... it can only mean one thing: The Aristocrat's Turkey Day Ball is upon us again! The popular annual celebration of all that's good about bad taste is hoping to provoke a slew of skewed satire and give those foolhardy enough to volunteer as judges a colossal headache. And a good laugh, of course.

To whet the appetite, let's take a look at some of the cream of last year's competition:

Yup, standards are that high, or low, depending on your point of view, sense of humour, religion, shoe size and taste in hats.

So jump to it! If you can make the judges laugh even as they vomit up their own entrails, you could be in with a chance of winning the glorious title "Aristocrat en Regalia", as well as the undying jealousy of the other entrants you so satisfyingly routed. Or you might lose.

Asked for quotes, organiser RAHB quipped "I'll probably get on it sometime tonight, if not tomorrow", while official judging type Modusoperandi added "my memoires are riddled with mind expanding shit".

{{username}} claims millionth victim
Stalking the articles, forums and userpages of Uncyclopedia like some kind of bad metaphor with legs, the notorious {{username}} template has claimed its millionth victim. The individual in question (who shall not be named because this publication is trying to write an article about {{username}} without actually using {{username}}) was innocently browsing through Uncyclopedia's debating rooms, looking in at the progress of such worthwhile literary endeavours as the incrementation project and the attention span test, when the vengeful template struck!

"It was there, in front of me, an accusation that I was teh gheyz", the hapless victim told us exclusively. "Such hard-hitting slander had to be addressed, and addressed immediately, so I clicked the edit button, and launched into a passionate and vitriolic defence of my unquestionable heterosexuality post-haste!"

Ironically, it was the length of this diatribe that finally revealed the subterfuge. "It took me some time to compose a suitable riposte, listing at length my many dalliances with members of the opposite sex, my subscription to Playboy and my utter distaste for the movie Brokeback Mountain - in fact it took so long that I was logged out from my account" said the sap. "So when I hit the preview button to behold my comeback in all its savage majesty, what should catch my eye but the <insert name here> message that betrays {{username}} abuse? I felt so embarrassed, the only logical course of action I could take was to sell my story to a newspaper with a global readership - you did say you'd pay me for this, right?"

Shortly after this point, the interview was discontinued due to a disagreement between interviewer and interviewee. Asked for a final quote, we were told "fuck {{username}}, and fuck you too!" - a comment that speaks volumes about the suffering this terrible template is capable of inflicting on the unwary.

{{username}} was unavailable for comment, and remains at large, ready to strike again.

07-07-24-andy-rooney-lexus-rx-300.jpg Thank you...
I've always found it to be polite to thank people for the things they have done for you, especially when it is a vote for a fine literary work. People don't say "thank you" that much anymore. Instead, they say "thanks" or "tyvm". That frustrates me, because I don't know what "tyvm" is even supposed to mean.
Thanks for voting.

PsychotypeD 05:42, 30 November 2008 (UTC) You apparently stuck an ugly label on this article, so tell me what's wrong with it? C'mon don't feel shy.

Its badly written and poorly formatted. Its also pretty random in bad way. It won't be deleted for a while, so have a read of this and maybe see if you can get a review here. Hope this helps:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 09:30, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

PsychotypeD 19:34, 30 November 2008 (UTC) Yeah, now that you mention it... I look at it and it seems to be trying to do too many parodies at once. I will admit that this was my very first article and I was a bit nervous about getting things going. I'll see if I can get it going again (depending on if my brain can come back to it).

No probs - remember that time = good stuff. My first efforts were pretty awful and I find that any good articles I do still take a bit of time to get right:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 20:05, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

I cannot tell if that is serious or not....

I might write one more article, and then i will be off, and if they are all deleted... i'll have gotten some good information. thanks! :) Emesee 09:03, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

mmm - I'm not the most diplomatic with women, so I'll just be honest. I don't really like wanted categorys being filled up, neither do I like categories of this kind - they complicate a system that should be simple - articles should be funny not categories (ideally, and you've only reverted it once). It would be very preferable and helpful to me if you could get back to me on this soon (when you're feeling better). thanks:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 18:04, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

December 4th • Issue 27 • Smiting the nail of news with the plastic hammer of truth

Sycamore: How does he do it? An UnSignpost Special Investigation

Sycamore. What words waft gently into the back garden of your mind when you hear that word? "Tree", perhaps, or "unusual, propeller-style seeds", if you're of a naturalistic bent. Maybe (although we admit it is highly unlikely), the words "song by really obscure Scottish rock band Deckard" will sneak in under the fence. But for those of an Uncyclopedia nature (and let's face it, that should include all those reading this, or the paperbot's malfunctioning again), the words are likely to include: "Scottish"; "omnipresent"; "recent changes fiend"; "reviewer extraordinaire"; "categories"; "ban patrol"; or possibly "who?" if you're out of the loop.

But who is this masked Celt? Well, since changing identity from MMACKNIGHT‎ in March 2008, he's racked up an impressive 18,000 edits (or he will have by the time this paper is actually delivered - it's hanging at 17.940-odd at the time of typing). voting for deletion, reverting and ban patrolling - the kind of soul-crushing work, in other words, that would sap the will to live of the average individual, but not our Syc.

His efforts have not gone un-noticed. Indeed, he's been re-nommed for Uncuclopedian of the Month, even though he's already won the award. And despite the understandable reluctance of the non-existent cabal to swell their non-existent ranks, there is a small but significant groundswell of opinion gathering that this should be followed by the bestowing of a Banhammer on the cheery Caledonian.

All of this is interesting, of course, and handily fills up column inches in this week's issue, but it doesn't answer the burning question: how does he do it?

Once again spending no expense on uncovering the truth, your fearless UnSignpost has the answers, and they lie in his welcome message, and a gratuitous stereotype of his nationality. Yes, Jaffa Cakes and Irn Bru are the fuel of choice of this salutary Scot, and it would appear that the chemical reaction of these two volatile substances in his bloodstream creates an energy level easily the equivalent of at least a small-to-medium Hadron Collider. This is sufficient to cause in him a state not unequivalent to that Scientific Holy Grail, perpetual motion. So there you go kids: that's how he does it!

Warning: Your safety-conscious UnSignpost would like to point out that Irn Bru is only known to have this beneficial effect on Scots. Those from less tartan countries would be advised to steer well clear - don't try this at home, kids!

From the Cabal's desk

Greeting citizens. This post does not exist. We are not addressing you from this paper. We do not exist. We do not sit in dark corners, smoking expensive cigars and smirk when we see you make mistakes. Mistakes on this site do not exist. We do not watch your every step with our ban hammers poised for actions. Mainly because your edits don't exist. We are not tired by your petty dramas and wonder when will you write some new classics. Simply because you do not exist. You are not reading this post. We will not meet again next week. This was not the cabal's weekly address to the citizenry. Keep the peace, obey the cabal. The cabal is your friend.

Edits reverted on IB article

Hey Sycamore, why were my edits reverted on the IB article? You didn't give any reasons and I'm not doing anything wrong. For now I will put my edits on again. --Crazy george 02:43, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

If I revert I'll proabably have a good reason - In this case case you're adding what we call cruft, or crap: Quotes, lists etc - these are not our aims. As a second comment reverting like that is very bad. Before adding anymore stuff have a read of these: HTBFANJS, Beginner's Guide, UN:LIST. Hope this help:)--Sycamore ( Talk ) 08:56, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
Might be a good idea for everyone involved to put edit summaries when they revert. ~ Mordillo where is my DARTH VADER? 11:57, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
No. You're not the boss of us. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 11:58, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
OK Modus, let's go over this again: when you get up, the first pill you take is on the left box. The left box. The side where you carry a watch. If you don't carry a watch, it's where your heart is. And in case you misplaced your heart again, it's on the side of the shoulder I kept poking you on that last field trip we did. Then, and only then you take the one on the right side, which is the complete opposite of the description I wrote just then. ~ Mordillo where is my DARTH VADER? 12:25, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
But one pill makes me larger, while the other makes me small! Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 12:44, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
Revert summeries for edits of this kind are hardly justifiable. If there is an issuie with reverts that are uncalled for, obviously a much tighter system of scrutiny should be the course. I am gonna have to disagree there - summeriries for this kind of eidt would be a waste of time and takje up my time on paperwork. If there is a revert that is questioned, the best way to leave a note and I'll either explain that this is kosher or I'll revert back if I have made an error.--Sycamore ( Talk ) 15:01, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
Plus rollback doesn't tend to leave meaningful edit summaries, and a lot of vandalism reverting uses rollback for ease. Actually, that's how I remember it - all reverts that I consider vandalism have the standard rollback summary, anything else I tend to put an explanatory summary on. But then, I don't seem to get half the number of accusatory fuckwits that Syc does. Anyway, I'm just driving by here, making comments where none were asked for. Carry on. --UU - natter UU Manhole.gif 11:08, Dec 7
But that's exactly the point. This guy was NOT a vandal. He added quotes in what seems to be done in good faith. Reverting vandalism? Sure, don't bother making edit summaries. Removing unnecessary content that was placed in good faith by a noob? A completely different issue. Take the extra two minutes to undo rather than rolling back and write down why it was reverted. Non of our time is more expensive than acquiring a new writer rather than scaring him off. ~ Mordillo where is my DARTH VADER? 12:24, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
On the plus side, both versions of the page kind of suck. Lists of more than six things are bad. On the other hand, lists of more than six things are bad. This isn't an absolute, by any means, but it's generally true, absolutely. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 12:35, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Okay, that's messed up

I did a search on that page for "archive", and it said "not found". Excuse my uncompetence. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 11:16, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

You put it there. I didn't see it. I searched. It didn't find it. I added it. Then you edited it...and I saw that it was there the whole time. It's like a ghost story, but nerdy. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 11:31, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
