Welcome to the Mother Ship of amateur comedy writing! (Amateur means we don't pay you to do it.)

This is where the original Uncyclopedia wound up. You might as well pick a user name. We have no "partners" that want to sell you stuff. Giving your email simply lets you recover your password; we don't send spam. Uncyclopedians get a talk page, private edit area, and a welcome, maybe, if you actually edit; and we won't de-platform you for your views, if they're funny.

Template broken?[edit]

I think this template is broken. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 11:22, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

I see the blink, but I am in the Stone Age.
I think <BLINK> is deprecated in HTML, though you can get it done with animation in HTML5. Can this template be gotten to work in all generations of browser? Spıke 🎙️15:56 28-Nov-21
Might be fixed now. I dual-coded it as text-decoration: blink; for older browsers and CSS animations for newer ones. I figure old browsers will skip the more recent CSS definition, and new browsers will ignore the one deprecated for accessibility guidelines.
CSS animation duration can be fine-tuned, in case we decide it's too slow or too fast (would not work for Spike). The template is protected, so trolls can't give people seizures with rapidly-flashing text. Of course, nothing stops anybody from spamming pages with the template.

Just what the doctor ordered, thanks heaps! I don't mind not having "fine-tuning" in my pleasant traditional kitchen-table set-up. Use of blink is inherently non-encyclopedic — but I enjoy it on ":59" in the upper right corner of the UnNews Front Page, suggesting the clock is permanently broken. Spıke 🎙️11:12 30-Nov-21
