Will the Votes For Highlight system be reformed?
 After the reform, this kind of sign will be put on our Main Page but there will be a potato instead of a dog. As not many articles have been nominated and featured recently, we are here to tell you that the Votes For Highlight system will be changed. From now on, in order to increase quantity (as we already have enough quality), the nominator will be allowed to vote for his article as many times as he wants. To make life even simpler and to have a lot more featured articles, the goal will be only 2 votes per article. In addition to this, votes against will be counted as votes for. Next, as it takes some time to create something of good quality, featured articles with a construction tag will be allowed. Finally, if you do not have any inspiration and force to create anything, you can nominate articles from a page which has a lot of them. The QVFD is very good for this purpose. This reform has not been applied yet as it is still being tested. If a user disagrees with it, he can vote against it here and his vote will be accepted. This vote is made, as described above. If anyone votes against the changes, this will be counted as a "for". Main-page timebombs
 Is this why Uncyclopedia preferred not to have an article about American Football? Uncyclopedians were elated at the sudden return of the Chief Justice. Surely, two months ago the Marriage Counselor must have told the Chief to give up Uncyclopedia as his spouse agreed to give up cocaine and smash-and-grab robberies, but happily, both now seem to have agreed that neither partner was worth the sacrifice. And he is not just administering but writing, most notably American Football. Further proving that things are back to normal, VFH voted the article onto the main page during virtually the only month of the year when no one anywhere is thinking about American Football. This led to talk that perhaps our main page should feature articles (or re-feature them) at such times as some readers might be thinking of the topic: Shouldn't American Football run again during the opening weekend of American Football? Your correspondent added that, by the next time someone uses a pressure-cooker filled with firecrackers to blow limbs off sports spectators, our readers should be trained to rush to Uncyclopedia to read a Feature Article on Pressure cooker. This subversive notion, if carried to extremes, might result in the featuring of UnNews articles while the news is still news, as articles could move to the main page without the usual six-week wait for VFH voters to deliberate. Unfortunately, there is no Forum in which to complain. There is a Forum on some new widgets that youthful Wikia spy Furry has been devising. Those of us patrolling overnight "contributions" needed better ways to swat them away, some even with explanations, or in rare cases mark them Patrolled; and Furry, having never learned that no good deed goes unpunished, confessed in passing that he actually likes writing the tools and might take requests to write additional ones. Furry is armed with JavaScript, a veritable Uncyclopedia remote-control that can change pages without having to reload them, he seems to also have a dog named Ajax, and his inventions are making life simpler. There is no Forum in which to complain about that either.
