Unless I've got my dates horribly wrong, January 5th will be the fifth anniversary of Uncyclopedia's existence. We need to do something to commemorate this. Do some sort of reskin? Feature Uncyclopedia? Unlock the main page? I'm sure others will have better ideas, and we've got enough time to argue about them and have a series of pointless votes. Actually, maybe that's how we should celebrate our wooden anniversary. -- 15Mickey20 (talk to Mickey)  21:08, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

I propose we find chonarion and stillwaters and force them to write an apology. -OptyC Sucks! CUN21:36, 25 Nov

According to the history of Uncyclopedia , it started in 1860. So really it should celebrate 150 years of unparalleled success. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 00:12, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

Yeah but do the 150 year anniversary to explain how a January 5th, 2005 Wiki was really founded in January 5th, 1860, when Doctor Who and Oscar Wilde were found out to be the same person and wrote the rules and policies for Uncyclopedia on January 5th, 1860 and on January 5th, 2005, gave those writings to Chonarion and Stillwaters to help them found the Wiki, but in January 5th, 1860 Doctor Who aka Oscar Wilde wrote the first few articles using the TARDIS computer and then uploaded them to Uncyclopedia's Wiki in January 5th, 2005. Oh yeah the anonymous IP vandals are actually enemies of Doctor Who like the Cybermen and Dialects, who are trying to foil his serious Wiki project to make it sound stupid and not just funny. --Lt.

I'm with 15Mickey20: let's vote! First up, vote on the necessity of a committee that decides on the necessity of a vote on a committee. Then, when that bit has seen all the necessary arguments and counter-arguments, the anniversary should be safely over. -- Style  Guide 18:28, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

Okay. Or we could just feature Sophia and call it a day. --Pleb SYNDROME _{CUN medicate (butt poop!!!!)} 19:46, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

Chron and still aren't really around, but I definitely think we should put together a "formal apology from the administrators of Uncyclopedia" and put it up on the main page. Anyone else wanna do this? - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 05:17, Nov 27

That is the best plan ever. Let's do it. - 02:36, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

I third that motion even though I'm not an admin, but whatever. • • • Necropaxx (T) {~} Saturday, 03:42, Nov 28 2009

Hey people

You know that letter thing? I'm working on it here. If anyone wants to add something or fix something or otherwise ruin a perfectly good letter to the viewers of Uncyclopedia, feel free to check it out. - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 20:28, Jan 2

Lies! We don't have viewers. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 00:10, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

I sense a reskin.Can someone chop a potato flipping the bird logo? ~ 00:13, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

I would, but I do have that inability to make backgrounds transparent. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 00:18, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

Do not try to make the background transparent. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: There is no background. Then you will realize that it is not the background that is transparent; it is only yourself. Seriously, you need to get some sun. - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 01:10, Jan 3

Something like this? File:PotatoFinger.gif Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 16:34, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

The words need to be thicker. As you can see, they're hard to make out. -- Kip > Talk • Works • • 20:22, Jan. 3, 2010

It looks better now, but I know I'm using a different font for the image than what we usually use. If it's an issue, just let me know what the usual font is. Woody On Fire! Talking Woody Stalking Woody 05:59, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

My vote is to replace the main page with that for a few days. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 05:32, 03 Jan 2010

That'd be fine with me, as long as everyone is happy with the letter as it stands right now. Does anyone wanna add or change anything before we get it up there, though? - T.L.B. WotM, UotM, FPrize, AotM, ANotM, PLS, UN:HS, GUN 07:14, Jan 3

It's perfect. As you are Leddy. *sniff* ~ 11:05, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

I made a few small changes. I focused the thanking into one paragraph and also made it easier for people to notice the subliminal message. I thought it was really good. If it wasn't already intended for the main page, I'd feature it. -- 15Mickey20 (talk to Mickey)  12:48, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

For. - Feature it on the Main Page! -- Kip > Talk • Works • • 13:32, Jan. 3, 2010

You should have seen what I'm doing

I'm trying to make Uncyclopedia better than ED, and we are still better than ED. After 5 years, ED has 5,000 articles, we have 5 times as many. Which means that it's 25,000 articles. We have about the same number of articles as an Albainian Wikipedia. |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Giratina CUN|IC Kill | 03:09, January 5, 2010 (UTC)

First of all, the best Wikipedia is the Albanian Wikipedia. Everybody seems to know this but you.

Second, I'm going to post this pic everytime I see ED mentioned in the forums. It's a nice pic of my Pa'. *sniff*, I miss Pa'. Went out for smokes and never came back, he did. Plus, since headers don't appear to be length-limited, I can just ramble on about whatever comes to mind. Which is nice. The rambling, I mean...

"Hola, me llamo ED. Oí que usted me buscaba."
