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:Hyperbole/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 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 put {{adoptme}} on your Userpage to join. Again, welcome! --Sir Starnestommy (Talk • Contribs • CUN) 19:43, Apr. 30, 2008

[edit] Good day, sir

I was strolling through Special:Recentchanges and happened to come across the edit you made to 30 roc and the edit summary you quite expertly attached to it. Don't be shy about making edits to pages, the vast majority of the articles could use a makeover anyway. Also, the rewrite was quite good. If you're considering becoming a regular editor here I'd recommend checking out Adopt-A-Noob and getting adopted so somebody can show you the ropes.

[edit] Hey

Thanks for reviewing Brick Wall! The stuff after 30 Feet Away is essentially focused on parodying Red light, but I'll try and add some more satire about the American car to make sure that part can stand on its own. --THE 23:51, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pee Review/User:PF4Eva/Mr. Nice Guy

Hey Hyperbole! Very good review: I especially like the worked for me/didn't work for me dichotomy of the humor section. The only thing I'd suggest is trying to not to use you so much in reviews. Because stuff like "it seems like you started writing it with very little plan for what it was going to be." may discourage, incense, or even discouragely incense authors who--especially at the receiving end of a low-scoring review--may feel like they were appraised and consequently feel attacked. Besides, it's difficult to imagine "it seems like you started writing it with very little plan for what it was going to be." elicitng the most sedate and positive response from a reviewee. Once again, very good review! Mightydandylion (talk) Fk 15:28, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pee Review:Ex-Lax

Can you ICU that article? Oh by the way, in Soviet Russia Articles ICU YOU!205.240.146.169 23:49, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

About that review (Uncyclopedia:Pee Review/Ex-Lax). Man, while I don't exactly disagree with your sentiments, that was a bit harsh. While it's not a good article, just giving a critical review isn't quite what we're after - we try, where possible, to encourage people in the right direction. So: a couple of lines about how most writers at Uncyc start out writing stuff like this; the optimistic thought that it is possible to improve; a nudge in the direction of HTBFANJS and UN:BEST to help them get the idea of what we're after; and a cheery sign off wishing them good luck or something. That's generally a good approach to consider, anyway. Generally, encouragement is the way to go, wherever possible! However, this is the only issue I've seen with your reviewing thus far on the site, so thanks for helping out, and keep up the good work! Tatty byes! --SirU.U.Esq. VFH | KUN | Natter | Lt? | Pee 10:21, May 7

That review was a tough call for me. I mean, of course I understand the importance of encouragement - everyone's going to make a few mistakes their first time around. On the other hand, Ex-Lax embodies absolutely everything an article shouldn't be - and judging by the weird flood of IPs surrounding it (the IP who wrote it, the IP who first "reviewed" it and was reverted, the IP who asked me to ICU it), I suspect we're all just getting trolled, here. --Hyperbole 14:47, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, if in doubt, on first offense, give a nice review anyway - you can slap an ICU on it but explain it's there to give them 7 days' grace to improve it before it gets deleted. If it is trolling, odds are they'll lose interest and when the ICU gets deleted. But on the chance that it's not trolling, it's best to make them feel welcome - we're trying to attract users, not scare the bejaysus out of 'em! ;-) Anyway, that's my attitude... --SirU.U.Esq.

[edit] Fourth Pee Review-related post in a row. TAKE HEED!

I observe that you have succeeded in making quite the name for yourself out of the "lower classes". Well, not really, but you know what I mean. While I generally try not to associate with you peasants, I do feel that perhaps you may be worthy of receiving somewhat of an "upgrade" from the squalor in which you so humbly appear trapped within. To that purpose, I, Boomer, Captain Catheter of the People for the Evaluation of Excrement and Influencing Nominations for Greatness, do formally extend an invitation to the great society of PEEING. Should you choose to accept this offer, please place your signature under the sub-heading "Fresh Stains" beneath the "Members" header. Should you choose to reject this offer, well, screw you anyway! Good day! Captain Mindless drivel Pointless edits 01:45, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Really is a shame we both can't win

You know it's truuue.

I must say this NotM race has been really fun. I am glad we showed up around the same time to help class this joint up (if big brother is watching, I am kidding, don't kill the noobs). I read most of your work and must say HowTo:Throw a Fireball is hilarious (found myself practicing immediately). Hope you take the time to read through my work, you might enjoy it (I've noticed we have very contrasting styles). Good luck on the rest of the NotM race. --Cheapinitreal 23:10, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hyperbole?

Have you gone on a bwutiful holiday or something? You haven't contributed for ages, and I'm worried! You've helped Uncyc so much, I hope you haven't gone away for good! - [08:58 29 May] Sir FSt. Yettie (talk) QotF BFF NotM RotM UNPotM CUN PEE SR UnProvise

Hey YTTE! Sadly, bad things are happening. Bad things. But I will return. --Hyperbole 22:15, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I guess that's good and bad. Bad that bad things are happening and good that you'll be coming back. And I'm very sorry to hear about the bad things. - [08:30 31 May] Sir FSt. Yettie (talk) QotF BFF NotM RotM UNPotM CUN PEE SR UnProvise

[edit] Thank you

Hmm, this could go on forever. Anyway, cheers! I love that article; at least, I think it has some real potential. If we keep chipping away at the coal, there's bound to be a diamond underneath somewhere. -- Sir Codeine K·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 16:45, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Adoption

The more I read your work, the more I love it. Would you like to be adopted? (ie. you ask me random questions, I answer them) because I feel, if you stay on and keep writing, you are a shoe in for WotM one day. --Sir DJ ~ Irreverent 16:51, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

I wanted to adopt Hyperbole too (to claim all his glory and success was down to me), but by then I was already f u ll up! :-( I'm content though... He would never have accepted me, anyway! /me beams happily - [16:59 4 June] Sir FSt. Yettie (talk) QotF BFF NotM RotM UNPotM CUN PEE SR UnProvise

Thanks for my reviw and paticulalry the proof read which is far from anything you had to do. i will try to work on your review-however I will say that it has been written with fans in mind as opposed to VFH which I am scunnered with;)--Sir Sycamore (T) (C) 11:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

--24.200.141.104 04:33, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Top of the morning to you, too, sir! --Hyperbole 05:09, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Just wondering if you could give me any tips on this article I'm writing, conpitalism. --The Truth of Matheus 05:26, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Well, my first tip is: read the article Capitalism. It seems to me that the concept of conpitalism, right now, is that it's an article about capitalism. So if it isn't better than the pre-existing article Capitalism, it has no reason to exist. Either come up with something more clever than that article; or simply edit that article instead of starting a new one; or change the concept of "conpitalism"; or write something else. Good luck! --Hyperbole 05:33, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Another Thanks

Thanks for urinating on Morley, West Yorkshire - it was really useful. It makes perfect sense that most of the locally relevant jokes wouldn't be got - I'll have a look at how I can make them a little more obvious without being too 'in your face'.

[edit] Releasimification

Ok, so I got my article pee reviewed by someone else (SysRq) but, I don't agree with his opinion. Can u tell me what u think now? U don't have to go in-depth. And could u give me a couple tips on improving it. I now SysRq is an expereinced Uncyclopedian, but I just wanted your opinion. Thanks and Cheers-Bobofosho2 21:12, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A Super Thanks to you

Thanks for the votes on NotM, and VFH. I like to see I don't suck. On a different note, I was a bit too n00bish to figure out how to vote back then, but your Turing Duck Test made me laugh hard multiple times. I was getting some weird looks at work. Seriously, the article is awesome. [[The Woodburninator 20:46, 20 June 2008 (UTC)]]

[edit] Award!

Yes, for your selfless commitment to giving others the benefit of your opinion on Pee Review, you have earned this:

Place it wherever you want it. And thanks for the help! --UU Blah / Pee 10:16, Jul 4

[edit] Solid Snake Pee Review

I reviewed that article of your's loooong ago, and i was wondering if u agreed w the review?-Bobofosho2 23:47, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Honestly, Bobo, it was a really short review. There wasn't a lot in there to agree or disagree with. --Hyperbole 01:45, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Awww, does Hyperbowe have low sewf asteem?

I responded to your thank you on my talk page, this is about VFH. May I recommend not watching them, in other words, not putting them in your watchlist? Maybe vote on other articles, or just leave VFH totally alone and focus on making other good articles. That's been a trick of mine for a while so that I don't get depressed. let's see if this makes you feel better:

on Uncyclopedia:VFH/Why?:Eat your broccoli: ( 2 + 20.5 + 23 = ) 45.5 voted for, and 8.5 voted against ( = 5.5 + 3 ) (this isn't a slap in the face to DJ or Sycamore, it's just math).

I don't understand your math. It may be fuzzy. Apparently math is just another thing I'm bad at. I'm going to go listen to My Chemical Romance and cut myself. --Hyperbole 17:56, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

It's based on how many features they've gotten, you emo twit. ~ Cajek! <17:58, 05 Jul 2008>

Oh, it's all clear to me now. My understanding is like a dawning ray of sunlight in my dark, dark bedroom. Unfortunately, I have to move out of its way, because I'm pretty sure I'm a vampire. At least, I should be a vampire. In a just world, I'd be a vampire. Then I wouldn't have to take all this bullshit from my mom. --Hyperbole 18:11, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, you are the first to receive it anyway, I will not be giving this award out easily... Congratulations on all your great stuff of late. It's awesome that we have just managed to lure another great writer like you into ~~our cult~~ Uncyclopedia... Mr N 00:42, Jul 9

Well, many thanks, MrN9000! This will look excellent in the trophy case I haven't made yet. --Hyperbole 01:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Just try not to get sacked from your job in the meantime... Mr N

01:17, Jul 9

[edit] Thanks and all!

Yeh...hi Hyperbole. Sorry, I've been really lazy and can't be bothered with the whole template thing. Well actually, this is a template...I'm just substing it in. It's just as generic and unpersonalised as a template, so don't worry about that! Anyway thanks and all for voting for this. Erm, yeh...it's on the frontpage! Woo! Also I created a tribute to it, after some talks with Hypeybole. Anyway, thanks again, Hyperbole! - [08:52 10 July] Sir FSt Yettie (talk)

You're welcome! But did you just send a message to a dozen Uncyclopedia editors, calling me "Hypeybole"? --Hyperbole 08:57, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Erm *cough* *Curses my laziness for not reading the template through and my utter laziness* *Curses subst*. Yuh, Hypeypbole's my nickname for you. Everyone knows that. *Tugs at collar* - [09:07 10 July] Sir FSt Yettie (talk)

Ahh! Now I have yet another p in there?? --Hyperbole 09:11, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Naturally, Hyppepypbole. - [17:54 10 July] Sir FSt Yettie (talk)

[edit] Maybe you need to archive your page?

Generally, it's not looked on well to remove stuff from your talk page. Oh, I know it's your talk page, and you can do whatever you want to it, but actually removing stuff from it like you just did is not something we generally do. Generally. (General). Maybe tis time you archived it anyway? I'm sure it will be full of even more shit soon enough anyway. Oh, some foo just nominated ya artikel for VFH again... Mr N 18:13, Jul 10

Hey, MrN9000 - I didn't delete it, I just moved anything award-like into my new trophy case. Which is an archive, of sorts. Or is even that a faux pas? (You didn't really think I'd delete your "hats off" award, did you?) --Hyperbole 18:15, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Now, that would make you mad as a hatter. Um, yea... It's not "good form" to remove "anything" from your talk page really. If someone posts vandalism, then obviously remove it, but otherwise it's probably best to leave things as they are... Some people are fussy about this kinda thing... Some people... << I fixed that stub the other day... ;) Mr N

18:23, Jul 10

Damn it... but trophies go in the trophy case! Two copies of every award... well that's just madness. I don't know, I wouldn't want to remove any actual talk from my talk page, but "Hey, thanks for voting on my article" templates seem like they should be filed. For fuck's sake, I work as a secretary. Not filing stuff goes against everything I stand for. --Hyperbole 18:26, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Mmm...morals. - [18:29 10 July] Sir FSt Yettie (talk)

Ahh, a secretary... You would understand the importance of a paper trail then... Maybe people might think that it's actually a fake award, and that you did not really win it! Everyone is after one of those awards you know, and there are forgeries all over the place... Hea, am I nagging? Oh, I love nagging. Did you remember to fix Unification theory yet? HeHe... Mr N

18:32, Jul 10

Nagger, please! If anyone wants to find out if Gavin the Tyrannosaurus really thanked me for helping get him featured, they're welcome to pore through the history of my talk page by candlelight. Because that's exactly what they deserve. I put like 10 minutes into Unification theory. It still sucks. --Hyperbole 18:50, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

“Well, if I ever see an expression of political ideology that's funny, I'll let you know. I am interested in registering with the MrNPants Party, however.”

~ Hyperbole

How about Battle of the Sexes or The Color Problem? They are both "political" in-fact, I don't think I have written much which was not... As for the MrNPants party, I'm sorry. You are not pants enough, and also fail for not being MrN. Mr N 12:23, Jul 12

What about the NotMrN, NotPants Party? I think its kind of snappy. The Woodburninator (woodtalk) (woodstalk) 14:19, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Hea, can I join that? Oh. Mr N

14:21, Jul 12

We must be talking about two things, MrN - I don't see a partisan ideology being promoted in Battle of the Sexes or The Color Problem at all. Not even a little bit. I don't see anything that suggests that either Republican Evangelicals or secular Democrats are fucking morons. Yes, of course feminism and race are political issues, but these articles are just silly. And in the case of the former, also sexy. But they don't come down on one side of an ideological divide like a sledgehammer. So, yeah, obviously that stuff is good. It's stuff like, for example, Socialist Alternative that I have a problem with (and I actually convinced that author to tone the rhetoric way down, via Pee Review).

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for the comments, I've cleaned up a lot of the areas you mentioned. It's a little more consistent, less repetitive, stupid, and generally easier to read. (I think.)

A lot of this will be funnier if you know a lot about the genre. There actually was someone named Quorthon who created Viking metal and Black Metal, so its sort of an in-joke. And yes, there really is Nazi black metal. Mattfca 14:24, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Awesome! Yeah, articles are generally funnier if you know a little more about their subject. Glad the review was helpful, and sorry I was getting so frustrated by the IPcruft by the end :) Cheers!

Trust me, my idea is in no way an imitation of this song; just stylistically similar. Also, do you have AIM? --THINKER 04:49, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey Thinker! I've never taken a stab at that style but I could probably fake it. Sounds like a bunch of jazz chords and a really bad EQ. I don't have AIM - I use Yahoo! messenger. Looking forward to seeing what you've got!

That's for the Pee Review, Hyperbole, your specific comments will help me edit Lara Croft to a damn fine article.

I have a question, however: in the review, you mention the yo-yo-ing between Lara as an actual person and Lara as a fictional character. Reading over the article, I see what you mean, and I have decided to take your advice to change the article to be about one or the other, but I'm not quite sure which it should be. I was hoping you could help me out.

Much thanks, again!
