Hi Spike and Romartus, I post the articles I create here on the other uncyclopedia too. Do you care if I include your contributions? Michael9422 (talk) 18:59, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

I don't think my tweaks to your article merit a veto! But just don't carry over someone else's articles. Spıke 🎙️19:11 28-Dec-22
I removed the image I created for the article. You can share this article at the Fork. Laurels.gifRomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 01:15, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
I think that the image you added is good. If you want to restore it, that's fine with me. It renders clearly at 250px on my computer, but the original size is also OK. Michael9422 (talk) 02:26, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
It now has its own article (Warning lights) which I think is a better solution; otherwise there are two of you essentially doing the same thing in two different ways on the same page. Spıke 🎙️02:38 29-Dec-22

Hi OculusWild, is there something wrong with including the "sporked" tag at the end? Michael9422 (talk) 15:14, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

I wouldn't include it. In the old days when we were young, templates seemed to add humor. Now they are a cookie-cutter humor without the humor and without the effort, a greeting card with a "heartfelt" thought that you receive every Christmas. It doesn't add much to tell the reader you began by copying the Wikipedia article, as you have now taken it very much in your own direction. By the same token, as I've told OculusWild, I wouldn't knee-jerk add the {{Wikipedia}} graphic to articles that have a matching page at Wikipedia unless there is something about our article that suggests that the reader would get more enjoyment out of it by reading the Wikipedia version. Separately, adding gibberish to the bottom line (Category:This bickering is pointless) might be "funny" in the sense of annoying a Wikipedian, but it doesn't relate to anything at all.
