Special:AncientPages

Maybe it is not a problem, but Special:AncientPages does not display many pages apart from UnNews. The links to the first two don't work as well. Anton (talk) 19:45, March 25, 2014 (UTC)

It lists based upon the date/time the page was last edited. The first three links are inaccessible - note the space in the third link - due to changes to the site structure over time. UnNews has a tendency to be predominantly unchanged since being written, while articles go through numerous changes.

So it technically does work. I have no idea what you'd want to use it for though.                                • Puppy's talk page • 08:06 pm 25 Mar 2014

Thanks for the explanation! I didn't want to use it for anything, just thought this page needed updating. Anton (talk) 12:28, March 26, 2014 (UTC)

I am willing to edit the page header to explain this, but if it is somewhere in MediaWiki: then its name has nothing to do with Ancient. Spıke Ѧ 12:42 26-Mar-14

From Special:Allmessages I located Mediawiki:ancientpages-summary. I think that's your bunny.                                • Puppy's talk page • 04:05 pm 26 Mar 2014

harassed by an admin

i put up a page about a character in teamfortress2 backupstory and one of the admis shoots me down about it because they didnot use google before my submission a page --Puncherofbears (talk) 14:37, July 27, 2014 (UTC)

More likely, the page was not FUNNY. We are more concerned here about whether a page is funny than whether it shows up on google. Please read HTBFANJS to find out more about what we consider funny around here. We are not your personal blog. Moreover, apparently there was no backstory in your page that would have clued in your reader as to the fictional identity of the character. Don't assume your reader knows everything about your favorite game. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 22:34, July 27, 2014 (UTC)

Problem

Everything.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.194.111.196 (talk • contribs)

Account creation

Yo! I'm trying to create my account (User:Salvidrim), which isn't registered yet, but when trying to create it, it says it already exists. Is it triggering some spoofing check that can be bypassed? Is it conflicting with my "regular" Wikia/Wikimedia user name? 66.158.144.234 15:36, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

Also, since I probably won't be notified of your reply here, either drop me an e-mail, hit me on on Enwiki, or anywhere else really. 66.158.144.234 15:37, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

The user name database at Uncyclopedia is not shared with the rest of Wikia. If someone else has created that account name, chose another name or add a number. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 15:46, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

Change of "Daily Mail" article title

I made a minor change or two to the "Daily Mail" article, and soon afterwards received notification that its title had been changed to a nonsense word by Gmaildamn2. I tried to restore the original title myself, but found that this is done using a Move button that people see only after they've been registered for four days. I don't know what Gmaildamn2 was/is thinking, but his changes to the title look like vandalism to me. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by RoyMcCoy (talk • contribs)

Today's featured article

If there is nothing new that's worthy, I suggest to put something in that's already been featured. It looks bad and amateurish to have an error message as the first thing on the front page, and for days now. You could make up a comedy error message also, but several should be interchangeable if there are no new featured articles. Are things really that bad here? --Nigel Scribbler (talk) 05:13, October 13, 2017 (UTC)

Noted, I usually find a quasi-featured article to put up there if no articles have got to their vote quota. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 07:58, October 13, 2017 (UTC)

Found an article and got a front page. I am always urging regulars here to look at the featured article queue to get a response from them. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 08:19, October 13, 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response! --Nigel Scribbler (talk) 13:45, October 13, 2017 (UTC)

Spoofed

This is the second time a video has been copied from somewhere, then posted with my persona credited: see http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Scottish_Sports . The video after "Fitba" was not added by me but is credited to me: http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/File:Carling_Football_Ad . I believe this video exists elsewhere on Uncyclopedia under a different name, for whatever that's worth.

Since I don't have Multiple Personality Disorder, then this could not have been added accidentally, as the article entry is formatted. Note that this was done while I was online editing the article. So it looks to me like a sockpuppet can just post while someone is signed in and writing. It also looks like a sockpuppet can key in on articles being actively edited. Note that the video was added twice with apparently no changes.

In http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Negima this video was added, and not by me, although again credited to me. This was also done while I was editing the article. http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/File:Epic_Police_Chase_on_Highway!! This also was again added twice with no apparent change. Probably the same sockpuppet.

Now I can always rollback these additions, but there is an underlying problem here, that of spoofing. This needs to be addressed ASAP. Thanks in advance for your immediate attention.

This can't be done at my end. The internet connection is hardwired and there are no other computers or humans on the connection. -- (talk) 06:37, November 16, 2017 (UTC)

I will have a look. Let me know of anymore incidents like this. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 17:49, November 16, 2017 (UTC)

For the record, for anyone with a similar problem, looking back in site history, Spike explained this was due to a Wikia bot replacing content for whatever reason. A similar Wikiabot has been resident on the site replacing or substituting videos, as you know. -- (talk) 08:44, June 17, 2018 (UTC)

Uncyclopedia Nederlands is SPAM ?

Nederlands Uncyclopedia linked e.g. from the main page is no longer a wiki site, let alone Uncyclopedia site. --Pykhal (talk) 10:45, November 20, 2017 (UTC)

.. is this a record – the slowest admin reaction? Maybe I forgot to mention that the link should be probably removed or fixed. --Pykhal (talk) 16:01, November 24, 2017 (UTC)

Nothing to do with us or Wikia/Fandom - judging by the link supplied. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 16:51, November 24, 2017 (UTC)

Art Bell

at least part and probably most of the article appears deleted yet the recent history shows over 13K bytes exist, much more than what seems to be there now. Recent (legit) IP edits have been made on lines that do not currently display, at least for me. -- (talk) 08:37, June 17, 2018 (UTC)

The article had been hidden in view, in much the same way I left a message on your pages awhile back. --RomArtus*Imperator ITRA (Orate) ® 09:12, June 17, 2018 (UTC)

Aha. Since it was partially hidden, that didn't register. Thanks! -- (talk) 09:14, June 17, 2018 (UTC)
