Forum:Please update the Featured Article

<<< Back to The Administrator's League • <<< Back to Forum

It's a new week, ready for new LOLs. Or whatever we've got next in the queue.

As it's month end, a voting reminder on Sitenotice would be nice too. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 12:28, 29 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

I would do this myself, but it took 5 minutes just to load up this page. I would blame that bloke but the fact it's a Bank Holiday also has a lot to do with it. -- Hindleyak  Converse • ?blog • Click here! 13:29, 29 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

(BUMP). Also: please ban the spambots I reverted yesterday. Thank you. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 10:17, 30 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

Featured article updated. Three days late is better than not at all, eh? -- Hindleyak  Converse • ?blog • Click here! 11:31, 31 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

Not if it updates again this Sunday. :( ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 12:48, 31 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

I don't think we ever said feature updates happen on any specific day anyway. --Silent PenguinLeave Me Alone 20:19, 31 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

Recent convention has been weekly, on the weekend, but then again... we're a rather unconventional group. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 21:02, 31 Ergust 2011 (UTC)

We should start updating it on Thrensdays. For consistency. ~ 22:49, 31 Ergust 2011

We should update when the Bardishman makes noise about it. Radishes? 24.61.112.73 01:17, 1 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

Are you suggesting giving him radishes might make him make noise about it on Thrensdays? ~ 01:29, 1 Serpeniver 2011

I am in fact suggesting the inverse; dousing him in Liquore Galliano and singing songs by Foreigner until he start crying. Gruntled AKA Monsignor Peaches - Speak slowly into the tube 02:42, 1 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

Foreigner isn't much of a punishment, however, erasure would turn anyone gay. --Silent PenguinLeave Me Alone 13:00, 1 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

Thrensdays then? Gruntled AKA Monsignor Peaches - Speak slowly into the tube 13:44, 1 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

Or we could alternate balloons. Might do the trick. ~ 01:54, 2 Serpeniver 2011

My balloon is filled with cat litter. Monsignor Peaches - Speak slowly into the tube 02:08, 2 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

What, so is mine. O_o ~ 05:13, 2 Serpeniver 2011

Also, this seems like a mostly inappropriate place to point out that Uncyclopedia's article on us, ie, the one Sir Hindles the wonko wrote vaguely recently, got featured. I wasn't even rigging the feature queue specifically for that (and what I was rigging it for got overruled by another admin, so nevermind on that anyway, though I did find a workaround anyway, but that's not really the point... anyway)... so.... er... what was I saying? ~ 05:17, 2 Serpeniver 2011

Oh, right, we're, like, on their mainpage and stuff. For a couple days. Bloody constant updating... makes a girl right motion sick. ~ 05:19, 2 Serpeniver 2011

Good work agent A (L?), we have successfully infiltrated the Uncyclo conscience. I am seriously surprised Uncyclopedia thought the article suitable for feature over there, considering I don't even think it's good enough for the Illogicopedia front page. After all, it's basically one great big in-joke only really written for Illogicopedians and half of it isn't even funny, IMO. Oh well, it shows how much the quality of Illogicopedia has improved, and the openness and liberal (not with a capital L, mind) attitude towards humour remains. More power to our arse elbow, I say! -- Hindleyak  Converse • ?blog • Click here! 13:18, 2 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

Well, to be fair, Uncyclopedia's also gotten to the point where they'll apparently just vote for anything. So... well, eh. Not that it's a bad article; I in fact quite liked it, but... yeah. >.< Still probably better than you think, though. I think. Thinky? Myes. ~ 13:26, 2 Serpeniver 2011

I thought it was a great piece, which is why it's on VFF. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 15:25, 2 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

That too. ~ 15:34, 2 Serpeniver 2011

For some reason, I felt compelled to add this little snippet of corn drugle. This concludes today's broadcast of the mandatory oligarch misnomer. Monsignor Onslow Peaches - Speak slowly into the tube 03:44, 3 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

I for one am grateful of your addition. Your sig name reminds me of Tom Onslow-Cole, the British Touring Car driver... you related?

Also, maybe my own vision of Uncyclopedia's overall quality is much higher than it actually is. After all, they featured that article on Argos that time. -- Hindleyak  Converse • ?blog • Click here! 15:52, 4 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)

That was the apex. It's been in decline ever since. ~ The Bard of Illogicopedia 17:53, 4 Serpeniver 2011 (UTC)
