  6. For. I get it! BTW, I think this article is the written form of physical comedy. Lowbrow stuff, just like I like it.   Le Cejak <0:41 Jul 08, 2009>

Against: 7
  1. Symbol against vote.svg Against. I don't normally say this but this article needs to about one paragraph long as that is the basic joke. The rest of the text is filler - though if that had been funnier then it would have worked a lot better i.e. medical nonsense or such like before it disappeared off the page. --Laurels.gifRomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate). 10:41, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
  2. Weak Against solely on the grounds of poor formatting. ~~Sir Fightstar Rocks! CUN 23:20, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
    Umm..... you DO know that the formatting is the main joke in this article, right? Woody On Fire! Wood burning.gifTalking Woody Stalking Woody 18:52, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
    Yeah, but it suuuuuuucks. ~~Sir Fightstar Rocks! CUN 04:29, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
    Fair enough. Woody On Fire! Wood burning.gifTalking Woody Stalking Woody 06:16, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
  3. Against. It needs more than just a formatting joke to be featurable. -- 15Mickey20 (talk to Mickey)  12:39, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
  4. Per what Romartus said. The writing needs to be funny as well as the format.    Orian57    Talk   Union pink.jpg 13:06 12 July 2009

Comments:
  • Comment. I'm really just very flattered that you've looked at my work as a potential feature when it really does not differ that much in regard to text from the Wikipedia article. Pup 11:15, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
  • abstain. i seem to be missing the joke. the text is copied from the wikipedia article, the images are faded, theres one or two more references to MJ...anything else? SirGerrycheeversGunTalk 14:55, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Symbol neutral vote.svg Abstain. I'd like the text to be more humorous. Sir SockySexy girls.jpg Mermaid with dolphin.jpg Tired Marilyn Monroe.jpg (talk) (stalk)Magnemite.gif Icons-flag-be.png GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 15:27, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
  • @LongLiver: How is this poorly formatted at all? --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 23:21, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
The faded pictures, also I caught a couple spelling mistakes in there. I'm strict about that, BTW. ~~Sir Fightstar Rocks! CUN 13:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment. I like the joke, but I think the text needs to be at least a little funny as well rather than just a wikipedia c&p. Spang talk 23:32, 06 Jul 2009
@LongLiver: I ran it through a spell check. Other than the medical terminology and the US v UK spelling the only thing my spell check picked up was "depigmentation", "overexpression" and "underexpression." All are valid, although to help the pedantic I've hyphenated the latter two. The images stand as they are, for what I though were obvious reasons. One thing I would like to do though is be able to put in a horizontal line but adjust the colour, as that is partially the reason why the end has had to be hidden rather than just faded and I've hidden one header and replaced it with just large text. If anyone has any ideas...
@Spang, @Romartus and @Socky - Fair point. Give me 48 hours... if it's not done then give me a further 48... BTW Romartus, I love that idea... Pup 00:26, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
  • If this does pass VFH, I propose a reskin! --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 20:05, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
  • I just want to get back in there and make the text funny as well. The one joke works, but given the comments both anti and neutral, it could work better. --Pup 21:11, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
*Okay, this is now starting to really bug me. I can't vote for this myself as I don't think it's strong enough to stand as a feature article as it currently stands without a bit of re-writing, and I can't rewrite until this is no longer in VFH. As much as it would give me a kick to see this featured, I would also feel terrible if it featured when I knew it could be improved. Therefore author request, can I have this back for the moment so I can do to it what I want to do to it first? (I don't know how to move this from the queue, so a little guidance would be appreciated.)Pup 01:49, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Abstain. Per the other comments: like the idea, but the text also needs more funny. And POTR: why not take a copy in your userspace and work on the amendments there? Then if/when the nom fails, you can move your shiny new version over the top. Then wait a couple of weeks per the "not renomming straight away" protocol, and Bob's your auntie's live-in lover. --UU - natter UU Manhole.gif 09:19, Jul 13
  • Comment. This is at best a mildly funny one line joke. Not feature-worthy as it stands IMHO. Also, filling a page with facts usually gets you VFDed. -- unnatural Ape (w00t) (Riot Porn) 22:12, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
    (copied from discussion on my talk page) OK, let me explain. So far as I can see, there is one basic joke on the page, and the a whole load of facts copied from wikipedia. Usually, if that were the case, the article would not stay around very long, and certainly would never be featured. This time, the joke happens to be the result of some (admittedly) very clever formatting, but ultimately it is just one joke. Make the rest of it funny too and I'll vote for. I stick by what I said. -- unnatural Ape (w00t) (Riot Porn) 22:28, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
