Now, this may have been postulated in the past, I dunno. As we are all well aware, Uncyclopedia is a veritable showcase of the very best in modern humourous writing, right? But sometimes, slap bang in the middle of one of our many superbly wonderful articles, someone adds a paragraph or subsection that, though not entirely devoid of promise, could do with a bit of a tidying-up or even a rewrite. How about if we had some sort of tag, akin to the rewrite tag, but applying to a subsection only, rather than to the article as a whole? Just an idea... RabbiTechno 18:22, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- Hmmm. I would think that we should just delete it without abandon. That's what I do.-Sir Ljlego, GUN VFH FIYC WotM SG WHotM PWotM AotM EGAEDM ANotM + (Talk) 18:27, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- You know how - sometimes - you find one that's actually pretty good, even funny, but needs work, though? Usually when you're too busy to do it yourself? RabbiTechno 18:29, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- I don't know. See, my problem with that is then we're becoming more and more like a democracy and less like the benevolent if occasionally irritating bureaucratic dictatorship we once were. Yes.-Sir Ljlego, GUN VFH FIYC WotM SG WHotM PWotM AotM EGAEDM ANotM + (Talk) 18:34, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

- Well then you drop whatever it was that was so gol-dang important and fix it, dagnabit. Priorities, man! Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 18:37, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- I was going to say 'usually on a subject you personally know nothing about and thus feel you cannot improve it,' but then remembered I've never let a little thing like that stand in the way of my edits... :) RabbiTechno 18:40, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
- I've done up a pretty good proof that you can write an article about things you are completely ignorant of. All it takes is the mystical magical interweb and some creativity. 08/12 19:36

- Surprisingly for crotchety old me, I'm in favour. As long as we don't advertise said template to the untrained n00bs too much, by, say, creating a forum topic about it. Maybe something less obtrusive than a great big box though, like a right-justified icon or summat. --Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 22:52, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
