Forum:Random deletion of a topic under construction??
As a new person to Uncyclopedia, I recently tried to start my own article. It was an article on 'the heartless', and I thought it was going to be alright. I had just got started on the quotes when I had to log off my computer and leave it to do some work. I placed the construction sign on the article and left it, intending to finish it later.
Yet when I returned a couple of hours later, the heartless article had been deleted! Not a sorry or a why, it was deleted. I assumed it was deleted for being an article of no content, but then it should have been excused by the construction sign. Besides, I definitely was intending to get it finished.
Please explain who is at fault here, and why. --Garionepsilon 11:57, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Well obviously it's your fault. That should always be your starting point. It's my fault, I'm to blame, I'll give the admins some pie. I'm guilty. Sorry about that.
But seriously, probably looked like some random abandoned puppy, which we get quite a lot about here. I'll restore it and move it under your user space so you can work on it comfortably. NOW WHERE IS MY PIE?! ~ 12:01, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Gee thanks. I promise to always make sure to get whatever articles I make done. I never stop adding to the ones I've got, and seen as leaving articles abandoned is stupid, I won't do that either. Thanks again.--Garionepsilon 12:04, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Just one thing, though. Once I've finished this heartless article, does it go back to being a regular article, or is it stuck under my username or something? Sorry, I'm just curious.--Garionepsilon 12:09, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Sure, move it when you think it's ready. If you're not sure about its quality, you can always use Pee review. ~ 12:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, I heard about that. Problem is, because I'm new, I probably shouldn't do reviews just yet untill I get some practice at the whole article thing. But yeah, thanks for clearing this whole thing up.--Garionepsilon 17:27, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Mordillo is still waiting for that pie (Pie is the national currency of Uncyclopedia. This explains why Uncyclopedians are chubby. By "chubby", I mean "fat"). That pie isn't gonna fetch itself, Garionepsilon. (When you feed it to Mordillo, keep your hands clear of his mouth) Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 20:36, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Pshaw. I haven't finished a single article yet, and I didn't hesitate to make myself Supreme Overlord of PEEING. I am now simply known as Captain Catheter, but the point is that you don't have to be incredibly experienced to write reviews. As long as they're good, have honest ratings, and give suggestions for improvement (as needed), write your heart out. In any case, Mordillo was actually suggesting that you submit your article to be reviewed by somebody else on Pee Review. Giving your own article a review doesn't really do much.

Well, I really haven't finished most of the articles I've decided to do. They don't havy any pictures, for one, and I don't pride myself in having lots of humour. But I guess I could sticka pee review tag on the Metal Sonic article. And about that pie...I failed in my cooking class, so will one from tesco do? --Garionepsilon 09:55, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
- Whoa, too much information. Maybe a pie from rhe baker's up the road?? Also, just a question, what's the tag I put in an article to get it reviewed?

Go to UN:PEE and just create a review page there. It's pretty straight forward. ~ 10:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
