- *Nomination suggested that the UnNews was a "serious portrayal" of a massacre; it is not. I don't agree with, nor like, its thesis, that gun crimes are evidence that the NRA are laughably wrong. The Source, a Yahoo blog about a gloating tweet "associated" with the NRA, is misleading, as the NRA never endorses crimes using guns; I think the tweet was more likely planted. But I'm not sure that any of this, or the fact that it was written by a permabanned user, justify deleting it. SPIKE/signature(21:28 12-Oct-14)
* Dunno. You have to hate the NRA pretty severely to find this funny, I think, 'cuz it's so totally contrary to reality. To be funny, I think stuff generally has to fall into the "uncanny valley" where it's almost believable, but not quite, and this is totally off the mark. To find it "almost believable" to you'd need to seriously believe the NRA was a bunch of raving lunatics.
- *Actually, Spike did see it, and commented to its author about it, but, er... this sentence ought to have a sensible ending and I just can't think of one. Maybe this is a pointless comment and I should go back to sleep. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20140929004446
- */me shrugs. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141015203118
- *Replaced. SPIKE/signature(17:29 4-Oct-14)
- *IP sez, "Now I hate this website and it's your fault"? Not a consideration. SPIKE/signature(20:34 15-Oct-14)
- *Maybe they're not s... Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141008021455
* As to when, it's supposed to be when the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars, and I think it already happened back in the late 1900's and Love, which was supposed to take over the job of steersman for the stars, is running a bit behind schedule.
- FWIW I see no pikeys here at all; I see middle aged hippies climbing into antique VW microbuses painted with peace signs and long-forgotten slogans, trying to recapture the spirit of the Electric Cool-aid Acid Test. If they happen to be Irish or gypsies as well, that's just coincidence.
- *Vote closed in view of the work done on it. SPIKE/signature(21:35 20-Oct-14)
- *Further comments on specific content are moved to Talk:Space Shuttle Challenger. SPIKE/signature(11:08 12-Oct-14)
- *Here is the last version by the original author, which was written neither in LOLcat nor in all caps. Just putting that out there. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141009013433
*:Sorry, nominator was supposed to find better versions in the history. But the one you found is even more explicitly an ad for the website. SPIKE/signature(01:56 9-Oct-14)
*::I thought it was an advertisement against the website, since it repeatedly talks about how it's 'retarded' and whatnot, but in any case it's not good. Also, did you remove my other comment on purpose or...? It was a pretty inconsequential little comment, but I'd just like to know. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141009034837
*:Yes. This is a ballot, not a diary. SPIKE/signature(10:16 9-Oct-14)
- *Going to sit on the fence. Anton is right that it's not funny, but Spike is right that we probably shouldn't have a redlink. Also, it at least has a concept; that's more than can be said for some of the stuff on here. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141011164909
*Kept and improved. The motto that bothered nominator, target company, and our webhost has been toned down in the name of alliteration, also avoiding lawsuits. SPIKE/signature(14:36 15-Oct-14)
- *The main reason for highlighting admins that I know of is to make it easier to flag down active ones--hence the original code that highlighted them only in recent changes, which both sites have now done away with. Highlighting them anywhere else is excessive and obnoxious, IMHO. Since we've taken the approach of making bold admins an optional CSS thing, it seems likely to me that anyone who is experienced enough to know how to use it is also experienced enough to know the active admins' names by heart, or at least where to go to get their attention. That certainly applies to me; I know who has what rights here and I've never had any use for calling them out beyond a desire to make things flashier. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20140930161406
- *Deleted. Flagrantly unoriginal to Uncyclopedia; no improvement since contributed it in 2005 except mark-up. SPIKE/signature(14:16 26-Oct-14)
- And besides, we already have a link to Uncyclopedia:Active Admins at the top of recent changes, in that grey box thingy, so even the original purpose of the bold names doesn't hold any water. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20140930163337
*:One use for our code is that it highlights edits by Admins in a diff report or a page history, for the benefit of users who are hesitant to override Admins. Separately and again, what any other website does is not a factor here. SPIKE/signature(16:43 30-Sep-14)
*Kept. Two weeks of apathy on this one included unanimous silence from all the other Admins. SPIKE/signature(13:22 14-Oct-14)
- *This is probably the wrong place to say this, but Talk:Flying toasters isn't much better: The images on and are shot. The latter one especially bothers me because they have a practical use--as links for doing various things to the article. Since they're just letters, perhaps they should be replaced with regular links to avoid not only inconveniences like this one but potentially overzealous ad blockers. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141029203640
*Deleted and replaced. SPIKE/signature(22:14 30-Oct-14)
- *In its current state, this article is definitely fuel for the fire. However, I've made some attempts at rewriting it and I'm not sure if it's worth giving up just yet. RAHB seemed to think it was worth fixing. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141008000308
*Also, something to keep in mind about these articles that no one will search for: many of them are linked from other articles and I'm sure people click on links. See here for how I stumbled on it in the first place. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141008000947
*:Only three of the callers are in mainspace. The fact that a personal rant was discussed on a lot of user pages doesn't justify a Keep in mainspace. SPIKE/signature(00:19 8-Oct-14)
*I've dumped my somewhat rewritten version at User:Llwy-ar-lawr/Blargh; I invite you to read it and consider replacing the current article with it. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141008155347
*:Still navelism and still reads as autobiographical. SPIKE/signature(23:28 8-Oct-14)
- *In fact, Pig Latin redirects to Igpay Atinlay, so it is entirely probable that someone would get here by searching for Pig Latin. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141020225536
- *I voted last time based on Aleister doing work, a commitment that he says in the ballot he never made. I had been moved at the concept of the unknowability of a Last War; now I find the concept undeveloped and I think the bit about humanity going extinct and the author being a panda is dumb. Llwy is working on it, but the maps Anton199 likes suggest to me comic book, not encyclopedia; and the problem is the text, which needs a better comedy theme than "War so nutty!" SPIKE/signature(16:48 11-Oct-14)
*:All I did was fix some spelling and formatting, and I don't see myself doing any more; I wouldn't overestimate me. It's more readable now, but no funnier. Llwy-ar-lawr/sig|20141011165618
- * added and clock reset. SPIKE/signature(21:35 26-Oct-14)
*"Since the church is primarily full of people with no capacity for intelligent thoughts...." From the entire Intro to this quote toward the end, opposition to Catholicism shouts out as the article's theme rather than humor. I defer until gamers confirm my impression that the many other items in the article have little to do either with Doom or with the church. (21:35 26-Oct-14) Simsie disputes my impression, and did a little clean-up. SPIKE/signature(10:24 29-Oct-14)
