• Another article I tried to expand, fix, etc. The original idea was by Ogopogo, to be a parody of an article on an Alien Wikipedia. So whaddya think? ~ Ghelæ ^talk_contribs 07:25, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Please, don't call it the 'Sol' System. That's worse than calling the Moon 'Luna'.--Nydas 18:59, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

It was for traditionality or something like that. Anyway, what else? Pictures for it are currently being discussed at RadicalX's Corner, so... yeah, what else? ~ Ghelæ ^talk_contribs 10:56, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

It's a bit too scientific, it needs something outrageous. Instead of assuming that humans are primitive beings without clothing, maybe the article should call humans blasphemous barbarians or something. Or maybe the article interprets the plaque as a cry for help from the men of the planet, since the man in the picture is waving, and obviously unaroused despite his proximity to a nude female. Thus, the aliens assume humans are on the brink of extinction because all the women are lesbians. I dunno, I just made that up off the top of my head. --Cainad 01:58, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually, that's quite a good idea! ~ Ghelæ ^talk_contribs 08:31, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I like the detached scientific attitude. Like Cainad, I think there need to be more blatantly obvious misinterpretations of the plaque. For instance, the arrow showing the path of Pioneer could be the worst insult ever. Just a thought.--Procopius 21:32, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I think the article's got the right idea now. The tone of the article is detached and informative, but makes biased assumptions. I think the best way to further improve the article is to give it more Hitchhikers' Guide To The Galaxy-esque information, where non-scientific statements are delivered as arbitrary fact. Procopius's idea is perfect example: a real scientific document wouldn't talk about something that's open to relative interpretation like "the worst insult ever," therefore the article should make blatant statements of opinion alongside the more scientific stuff. --Cainad | Speak with The Eye 19:31, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
