| - Every day hundreds of articles are created on Uncyclopedia. Many of these are vandalism, utter nonsense, one or two sentences, or someone's coming out message — (or going back in for a sweater) they are deleted shot Burninated on sight. A few are high quality articles that make this place great. Most of them fall somewhere in the middle. They have some value to them, like a good concept or a funny joke or two, but they just don't have enough work put into them to really conform to the standards we try to keep around here. That means that either (1) people have to keep working on them, or (2) they will get deleted. To help our administrators find and process these pages, our users mark these pages with , meaning "Intensive Care Unit." (The more humourously insulting —"No Redeeming Value"—is depreciated (which is a less intelligent way of saying 'deprecated') and should not be used.) If you are reading this, it is probably because you created one of those articles and now find yourself with a large pink template on it. But don't lose hope! Though your article hasn't reached the finish line of full article-dom yet, you can redeem it! You have the technology! (Unless you are Amish, in which case you do not have the technology.)
