AUTISTIC SEEDRIANS

Autistic Recolors. --Big Nig 16:30, 1 February 2013 (EST)

404 ~Oblique 05:06, 2 February 2013 (EST)
I think this is the link that Zanny was trying to give. Try it now, Oblique. -Gray 16:34, 2 February 2013 (EST)

Manic Expression

May a mod/sysop move it into Cleveland's sandbox? He apparently clicked the "save page" button by accident. -Gray 16:12, 3 February 2013 (EST)

Hipcrime got it. -Gray 16:29, 3 February 2013 (EST)

There is no reason why there can't be more articles listed in the BNA Portal

According to this on ED.com the BNA Portal had at least 27 articles listed on the sidebar at a time... Why can't that be the same for ED.se's BNA portal??-- Talk to me|Contribs 19:19, 3 February 2013 (EST)

That was my bad. Nobody was updating the BNA list in the portal so I replaced it with Main Page/BNA. That way every time a bad new article were made, only Main Page/BNA has to be updated, as opposed to both Main Page/BNA and Portal:BNA. -Gray 19:30, 3 February 2013 (EST)
It could still stand to be seperate pages, and have more articles listed in the portal. Maybe with an infobox on top of the portal telling users to add the new articlles to the portal, and swap out new articles with ones on the main page..-- Talk to me|Contribs 00:53, 5 February 2013 (EST)
Users rarely update portals. I think it'll be easier if we just extend the capacity of Main Page/BNA to ten or something around that and keep it embedded on the portal. -Gray 02:23, 5 February 2013 (EST)
If they are ever separated though, I can check Special:NewPagesevery day or so and update the Portal..-- Talk to me|Contribs 16:54, 5 February 2013 (EST)
I'm against having more shit on the main page. Just add more at the end of the template on the portal. You can always
{{Main_Page/BNA}}
*[[More]]
*[[Shitty]]
*[[Articles]]
Mike the Great (talk) 17:58, 5 February 2013 (EDT)
  • We had the Main Page GNA and BNA on a rotation schedule on ed.com as well. We should ge back to doing it that way. Anyone remember how it was set up? It might still be on archive.org. --zaiger (talk) 17:08, 5 February 2013 (EST)
I'll just update the portal every time I update Main Page/BNA. -Gray 17:39, 5 February 2013 (EST)
You can update the rotation. I'll find the template. The BNA cycles way too fast, so this way will allow for more articles and keep them on the main page for longer. --zaiger (talk) 18:03, 5 February 2013 (EST)

Shitstorm

You know, I just love it when a shit ton of vandalism and spams hit last week and then the drama slowly dies down. ••General Niggerson Page me. 21:50, 3 February 2013 (EST)

LiteralKa

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo why is it that he can do everything he wants? He doesn't seem to be vandalizing only me anymore. It's not the vandalism that seems to be pissing people off. The fact that it's getting old and boring is what is annoying people. Lord Pony 04:54, 9 February 2013 (EST)

Zaiger and Meepsheep won't allow LiteralKa to be banned because they believe that purposely vandalizing the site causes drama. If you want my advise, just ignore him. LiteralKa's annoying but he's still harmless. -Gray 05:21, 9 February 2013 (EST)
It's more annoying than dramatic. Lord Phony 05:25, 9 February 2013 (EST)
Not really, reverting him is only one click away. -Gray 05:28, 9 February 2013 (EST)
both of you are fat and have autism 08:54, 11 February 2013 (EST)
kitties hacked me. Leon, GNAA 08:54, 11 February 2013 (EST)
  • Because it's hilarious to see how mad people get. We're not going to beg people to stay, If they want to leave the party because they got their feelings hurt over something that could be remedied with a button click then that is their decision. I just wish they would speak up and tell someone that they are leaving so their rights can be removed and they can be replaced by someone with thicker skin. --zaiger (talk) 09:11, 11 February 2013 (EST)
    • I have thicker skin but I think we both know how that'd end. Leon, GNAA 09:13, 11 February 2013 (EST)
      • I personally have a complete and total inability to take anything online seriously...least of all myself. It's always worked for me! :D
--Onideus 17:01, 13 February 2013 (EST)
People left? Who? Elvis 12:47, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Hipcrime needs surgery, so he left for that, plans on coming back according to Meepsheep. Not sure why Oblique and Mike The Great left. DarkLordTR 13:28, 11 February 2013 (EST)DarkLordTR
Oblique is probably busy with school seeing as he was inactive anyway. Mike is very emotional and tends to emoquit over the slightest events. 13:30, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Most of the edits I can't undo with just a button and I recall being banned for undoing an edit he made. Lord Brony 13:34, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Having fun Tony? ••General Niggerson Page me. 13:35, 11 February 2013 (EST)
How does it feel to spend the entirety of your days being mocked by furries and bronies Tony? 13:40, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Doesn't bother me. Lord Tony 18:55, 11 February 2013 (EST)
What about Gray's page? ••General Niggerson Page me. 16:45, 11 February 2013 (EST)

yes mainly the school/job also partly because i need a break from ED due to everything here pissing me off lately, which is a strong indication i need a break for a while. ~Oblique 22:30, 11 February 2013 (EST)

Good luck with your exams, and hope you graduate. ••General Niggerson Page me. 22:36, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Hope you do well on your exams as well. DarkLordTR 17:09, 13 February 2013 (EST)DarkLordTR

Portal list on the left side

Back in the day, before the giant landwhale tried to destroy ED, we had a fancy list of portals / sections on the left side, right below the search bar. It really helped a lot with moving through ED, especially if you looked for DeviantArt and Gaming stuff. So why don't we have those shortcuts anymore? They were really good. Killerratte 12:15, 9 February 2013 (EST)

  • I think this is a good idea. oddguy 15:15, 9 February 2013 (EST)
We had them, but they were removed. Prob because the portals weren't updated TKN 17:24, 9 February 2013 (EST)
I rotate most portals every time they're featured on the Main Page. -Gray 17:40, 9 February 2013 (EST)
  • It took up too much room on the left side of the page. Just click the Portals button at the top of every page. --zaiger (talk) 08:51, 11 February 2013 (EST)
Okay thanks, but why don't you just atleast duplicate the button from the top and put that one word on left side? I never saw this up there until now. It could probably even increase the "productivity" of ED. - Killerratte 20:30, 16 February 2013 (EST)

Duplicate J-Pop entries.

When browsing the stubs, I noticed these two entries:

https://encyclopediadramatica.se/J-pop

https://encyclopediadramatica.se/J-Pop

They have clearly different view counts, even if they seem otherwise identical. Should these be merged or something?--Ambient Malice 06:45, 10 February 2013 (EST)

I just turned J-pop into a redirect to J-Pop, since they are identical except for a few of the videos, and one or two sentences.-- Talk to me|Contribs 07:12, 10 February 2013 (EST)

GNA

Someone add 6 new-ish article to the new autorotating GNA pls --zaiger (talk) 08:49, 11 February 2013 (EST)

Done. -Gray 11:27, 11 February 2013 (EST)

A new way to utilize 7 proxies!

For those who find Tor to be slow, or find the exit nodes blocked, there is a web service (and Firefox plugin) alternative called "Stealthy" that serves as another way to utilize proxies, especially useful for trolling if you want to evade a banhammer or IP block.

Go to the following link for more info:

DarkLordTR 17:40, 13 February 2013 (EST)DarkLordTR

There's an add-on for firefox called "Anonymox" that adds a button to your toolbar to switch your IP address out of country, free also. great for being able to watch country-blocked youtube vids.-- Talk to me|Contribs 18:06, 13 February 2013 (EST)

Pope Benedict XVI is quitting

The current pope is quitting. His article needs to be updated.-- Talk to me|Contribs 18:03, 13 February 2013 (EST)

Here's some stoofs for his article:

That's all for now, I have moar, but got too many other things that need doing to look for them. --Onideus 18:31, 13 February 2013 (EST)

So I Gutted Her

--Onideus 19:34, 13 February 2013 (EST)

Hey uh, I noticed someone stuck this on the main page...but um...does it work? Cause I think it's got some kind of age restriction thingy on it where you have to log in to see it...although maybe that's just if you're accessing it on YT. --Onideus 14:22, 14 February 2013 (EST)
You only have to sign in if you're watching it on YouTube. -Gray 14:59, 14 February 2013 (EST)

Shortsisms2 (MrInternetable sock account) Threatening Harm On Zaiger's Family

Another one of LifeInATent's serious death threats to Zaiger and taking down ED because LifeInATent still butthurt over his article still being up agian. I already video capture it so that criminal scum, LifeInATent, can not claim it is photoshopped. Someone please let Zaiger know about this. LIATBuster30011 10:03, 14 February 2013 (EST)

  • If you video captured it, you should upload the video to Mega (the new megaupload recently started ) and put the link here.-- Talk to me|Contribs 15:40, 14 February 2013 (EST)
someone needs a hug 10:06, 14 February 2013 (EST)
Yeah, I believe I overreacted to his comment post. Thank you all who corrected me. Now people all over the Interwebz can confirm LifeInATent lie completely about everything including his life and that he never back up any of his cowardly threats. Anything he said to people only applies to him and his girlfriend, Megan. He is just psychologically projecting all of his own attribute of having an girlfriend onto Zaiger exactly like how he psychologically projecting himself being of being an money glutton attention whore onto MrRepzion. LIATBuster30011 10:50, 14 February 2013 (EST)
I think Meep meant the guy in the comment, "Shortsisms2"...although I'm voting for kitten. That d00d seriously needs ~some~ kinda pussy in his life! --Onideus 10:57, 14 February 2013 (EST)
That fucking moron is funny. ••General Niggerson Page me. 11:44, 14 February 2013 (EST)
  • Wow! Two death threats in one week? Hppy V-day Zaiger! oddguy 12:01, 14 February 2013 (EST)
  • I'm popular =) --zaiger (talk) 13:15, 14 February 2013 (EST)
You know what else is funny? He thinks one of those trolls is me. Ivo Robotnik: SnooPING AS usual I see! 20:58, 19 February 2013 (EST)

How much traffic does ED get?

I'm curious about how much traffic ED gets on a daily/weekly/monthly basis, and how the stats have changed over time. I'm also curious about ED's popularity before and after that incident we shan't discuss. Does anyone know the figures for 2012/2013 vs 2009/2010, or at least where to find them?--Ambient Malice 18:02, 14 February 2013 (EST)

here 17:59, 14 February 2013 (EST)

It's my understanding that Alexa only only uses data from people who have their toolbar installed. Is this accurate?--Ambient Malice 18:06, 14 February 2013 (EST)

that is correct 18:07, 14 February 2013 (EST)
Alexa gives you a general idea of the overall traffic, it's not absolutely accurate to the exact number of people, but it gives you a good "ball park" figure to go off of.
--Onideus 18:10, 14 February 2013 (EST)

  • We get about 10 million pageviews a month according to cloudflare. --zaiger (talk) 20:19, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Since we made the spoof Anne Frank cartoon PotN...

Just saw the new POTN.

https://encyclopediadramatica.se/File:Disney_films_presents_anne_frank_the_animated_film.jpg

Glancing at ED, I see we have no Anne Frank page, since it redirects to Jews. Does anyone else think an Anne Frank page would be worthwhile? I suppose some lulz could be wrung from the fact her conservative fans tend to whitewash the fact she really, really liked to look at naked women, and practically admits she's bisexual in her diary. But on the other hand, I can't think of anything else lulzy, so the page would probably descend into some sort of overcompensating "Oh, lol, Nazis killed Anne and her family, lol," crappery.

Thoughts?--Ambient Malice 01:22, 15 February 2013 (EST)

None because the article "Jew" pretty much sums up of what she is. ••General Niggerson Page me. 01:38, 15 February 2013 (EST)
Nope.jpg. also, ^^^^^^^^^-- Talk to me|Contribs 01:43, 15 February 2013 (EST)

That pretty much settles it. Didn't feel like writing it anyway, and just wanted to check.--Ambient Malice 01:49, 15 February 2013 (EST)

  • As a jew I can tell you there isn't much to say about here... There are some nice holocaust jokes about her (: oddguy 12:03, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Hapy late valentine's day, EDiots. Here's a gift.

Here's a giant list of great resources for images, drama, and article-worthy shit.

Various shit

socail media drama sources

Why are you spamming links? ••General Niggerson Page me. 17:23, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Sorry, didn't read the top. ••General Niggerson Page me. 17:28, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Okay, now go integrate all that with nyah:

https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Encyclopedia_Dramatica:Image_Selection_Process

While yer at it you can copy edit all my text (since I'm like the only one who ever adds stuff to it). :D

--Onideus 17:39, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Just added a few, thanks for the suggestion, O.-- Talk to me|Contribs 19:26, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Probably should have added WebCite to the tools list at the end, since it can archive stuff.-- Talk to me|Contribs 19:31, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Yeah archiving tools/addons/etc are really, REALLY handy, especially since a lot of kooks/subjects will panic and "baleet fucking everything" at the first sign of being baited, so it helps to have ways to archive all their stuff as quickly as possible.
There should be a "video" section added into all that as well, with some links to tools like "KeepVid" for archiving video clips from YouTube and the like.
The "help files" in general could use some expansion/detail/revision, especially given all the new social media forms/sites and media types available. I've been trying to do some editing/updating in my spare time, but it's pretty slow going with so much other stuff going on as well. It would be nice to get some others working on it too though, especially to give it a more general tone. My typing/writing style kinda sticks out like a sore thumb, so if I'm the only one working on some article it kinda winds up reading like a blog entry I wrote or something.
--Onideus 20:39, 15 February 2013 (EST)

Save webcitation.org

http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/343511 – WebCite needs money in order to continue providing its on-demand archival services. Worse, the Wikipedians plan to take WebCite over if WebCite proves unable to raise revenue on its own. Most of the archived webpages hosted by WebCite being used by ED are Wikipedia-related. Expect these pages and more to disappear once the Wikipedians take over. If you don't donate to WebCite, we won't be able to preserve webpages related to Wikipedia scandals and hoaxes. --JuniusThaddeus 09:58, 16 February 2013 (EST)

this is a worthy cause, and im glad to see the call for donations in the sitenotice. last time i looked, they had only raised $783. i have lots of deleted diffs in webcite and if the wikipedians got their hands on webcite, you can bet they will remove them. -hipcrime 17:35, 16 February 2013 (EST)

Would ED possibly be able to host them, like with Chanarchive??-- Talk to me|Contribs 18:04, 16 February 2013 (EST)

I don't believe that the people operating WebCite know or understand ED. They're not channers. --JuniusThaddeus 21:29, 17 February 2013 (EST)

https://www.google.com/search?q=%22webcite%22&tbm=nws – WebCite won't survive without more media coverage. Could someone please get in touch with Gawker, the Daily Dot, or some other news source focused on the Internet? --JuniusThaddeus 21:34, 17 February 2013 (EST)

I just sent an email to [email protected] - hopefully they read it.-- Talk to me|Contribs 01:38, 18 February 2013 (EST)

They're talking about ED in the "comments" section: https://fundrazr.com/campaigns/aQMp7#comment-feed (click "Comments". Anchor doesn't work)

No one donate. The ED site is horrible and against the law

Until ED quits cyber-bullying NO ONE DONATE. I don't care what design etc you are trying to accomplish. You have pages that are there to harass other people for the hell of it and posting their private information as well.

Until anti-ED faggots stop commenting, continue donating! I support freedom of speech.

What is ED?

--JuniusThaddeus 07:16, 24 February 2013 (EST)

it looks like one teenager posted a negative comment. still, removing the sitenotice was probably a good idea, for the good of webcite. -hipcrime 08:13, 25 February 2013 (EST)
I didn't want further complaints about ED in the comments section scaring people away. The comments disappeared, but they're still available in a WebCite snapshot: http://www.webcitation.org/6EfqGCzko (click "Comments") (hint: this is why WebCite is useful). --JuniusThaddeus 19:46, 25 February 2013 (EST)
couldn't agree more. i have my share of wikipedia diffs in WebCite. ;D -hipcrime 03:06, 26 February 2013 (EST)

KYM ED page suggestions

I recently signed up for KYM to edit the ED page to reflect the split between the original ED community at ED.com(which is now here at ED.se) and those who betrayed the ED community to form the abomination we know all too well today. I am going to acknowledge both of the sites' existence only because of the fact that (1. noone vists OhI anyway so there's no threat in mentioning it, and (2. I wasn't sure if I'd get editorship for it if I didn't. Curently it claims that ED turned into OhI, but I am going to rewrite it so that it basiclly tells readers that ED is still alive and well at ED.se, and that the community split. I got Weev added as a related article, and tried to get Cigarsex added.

In addition I am going to add a section on the controversy over the Aboriginal article, Bullet to the Head of the NRA, and ED in general.

Please note that editing the article on ED is the only reason I signed up there!!! I would never betray ED, and am only doing this to help spread the good word about ED.

If anyone has any suggestions for the article that would be great... -- Talk to me|Contribs 15:05, 16 February 2013 (EST)

  • I used to edit KYM. I think I almost made staff there at one point... But then I got bored with it and now I don't remember my password OR the password to the Email I used for it lol. oddguy 15:20, 16 February 2013 (EST)
  • I think it's GREAT to mention OhI, that site is such a horrible ass rape of uber generic, overly bland, boiler plate "Know Your Meme" copy pasta that it pretty much insults itself far better than anyone else could ever even come close to describing. I cannot even begin to ~imagine~ the horribly epic SHAME that Sherrod must feel every time she logs on to that dilapidated, gutted out, disparity of sold-out pseudo-content. Ten to one says she cries herself to seep every night from the unrelenting embarrassment she's wrought upon epically fat frame. --Onideus 18:08, 16 February 2013 (EST)
  • she has a job that pays well. i suspect she's just glad to be rid of ED, and vice versa. -hipcrime 18:20, 16 February 2013 (EST)
  • I doubt she makes very much money at her "job", especially considering the site is doing so horribly. Have you seen their Alexa ranking? It's a continuing downward spiral into obscurity. It'll probably reach the point where they dump her in favor of relying on free work via regular users and automated bots just to save a buck or two. I doubt she's "glad" to be "rid" of ED, at least its traffic. I think she had very unrealistic expectations of being able to keep all that traffic and now that's it's pretty much flushed down the toilet for her I would imagine she's not feeling too proud about it. --Onideus 18:31, 16 February 2013 (EST)
    • I actually think it's possible that as a last ditch effort to get money from a site, she might bring back ED.com. Possibly within the next two years. I hope not, though, because that would take more traffic away from the real ED, ED.se.-- Talk to me|Contribs 18:38, 16 February 2013 (EST)
She definitely wont, as long as Ryan is gone she's fine with us. 12:21, 17 February 2013 (EST)
What does Ryan being gone have to do with whether or not she's fine with us? Just asking...-- Talk to me|Contribs 10:43, 19 February 2013 (EST)
  • they know it's unsuccessful. my memory of it was that she wanted rid of it because of the trouble that came with it, including Brandt, death threats etc. she claimed that btards ruined ED.com but my opinion is that it was Wikipedians. -hipcrime 18:45, 16 February 2013 (EST)
  • She was never very "strong" to begin with I think. Part of why she started ED is because she couldn't handle things on Usenet, but I think eventually things wound up going that route anyway. I don't think she was ever very suited towards handling volatile Internet culture in general. Death threats, wanton attacks, slander, libel and frothing hatred are simply a byproduct of the overall game and you shouldn't play unless you know full well what it is you're getting into and know that it won't bother or affect you on any meaningful level in the real world. I think her "constitution" in general if you will, was always pretty ill suited towards ED on the whole. --Onideus 18:59, 16 February 2013 (EST)
  • hippos don't make money. --YRT (Currently online) 12:02, 17 February 2013 (EST)

As I mentioned in the Aboriginal talk page, ED was never banned here in Australia. There was a leaked blacklist supposedly originating from the gov, which was meaningless, and the page was removed from Google search. But ED itself was fine, and when ED switched to .se, the Google blacklist became invalid. Just bear this in mind.--Ambient Malice 12:18, 17 February 2013 (EST)



Okay, check it out now... What do you guys think? I also added some videos and pics(the newest pic wasn't added by me though, just so you know.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by CrackRabbit (talkcontribs)

Change Your Password

FYI, if you've been "upgraded" to an Editor or Admin then you should change your password to something ~really~ long/complex (that can't be fuxored with by a brute force/dictionary attack). Basically the more site privileges you have, the bigger a target you become for potential abuse. --Onideus 21:24, 19 February 2013 (EST)

  • Since that's not a proprietary feature of MediaWiki, I'll assume some extension offers that functionality. I checked for one, none exists. I'd be interested to know exactly how that's done. Otherwise, I'm calling BS of Jodi Arias proportion. Gizmo 22:27, 20 March 2013 (EDT)

Do We Still Need The Tumblr Template?

  • Is there still a point to Template:Tumblr Series now that we have a Social Media portal with tumblr being a part of it? It's kind of uneeded now, which is too bad because it's a really nice looking template. Should someone just move all the articles from the template into the portal? :I oddguy 12:53, 20 February 2013 (EST)

Well, if you decide to delete it then nobody do it before I copy all the links into the portal. Never mind. Someone already did this. Imma copy all the articles later. oddguy 13:32, 20 February 2013 (EST)

Don't delete that template please. There is a difference between a series and a portal. --zaiger (talk) 14:51, 20 February 2013 (EST)

Nice. That is pretty awesome. --zaiger (talk) 17:01, 20 February 2013 (EST)
this looks really good. i liek that it conforms to the style of other templates. -hipcrime 13:09, 22 February 2013 (EST)

You can also use Template:Socmed as a shorter way of typing it on pages. Talk to me|Contribs 18:24, 6 March 2013 (EST)

Too soon for a PS4 page?

Sony 'unveiled' the PS4 today, and basically used a bunch of smoke and mirrors to obscure the that at no point were we shown an actual PS4.

Is it too soon to write up a page to go with the PS2 and PS3 pages? Maybe make invisible console jokes? --Ambient Malice 02:10, 21 February 2013 (EST)

Wait until there is some real information on it. ~FredJuicynips (Talk | Contribs) 05:40, 21 February 2013 (EST)

flushing duplicate/unused files

Why are the unused duplicate files being flushed? Some of them may go to a page(s) that hasn't been restored yet....-- Talk to me|Contribs 11:49, 22 February 2013 (EST)

They don't go anywhere, they're unused DUPLICATES, not simply unused files. Also, the only ones I'm flushing are the "whatrumors.com" SPAM images and the "300" duplicate images. Apparently at one point some jackass got the incredibly brilliant idea to copy the ENTIRE "300" gallery and reuploaded the entire mess with RENAMED FILES! *epic face palm*
--Onideus 11:56, 22 February 2013 (EST)
Awww crap! I think the same thing happened to the Zinedine Zidane article, I won't know for certain though until I start checking through, but I've seen at least 20 or 30 unused Zidane files so far, so I doubt it's coincidence, they're probably all replicants from the gallery.
  • I did a little work on ZZ a while back; you're right, there's an obscene number of poorly named/unused & duplicated files... I'm pretty sure there are some listed here (I'm literally leaving work now or I'd confirm) - Mr.Jonzz 13:03, 22 February 2013 (EST)
I think I'm about 2/3rds of the way through the entire 300 gallery. It's not like they just picked random files, they literally made a complete duplication of the WHOLE freakin album and then renamed EVERY single file! Each one has to be manually checked too, because some of the ones in the current article are thumbnails, so then the two have to be swapped out. Pain...in...the...ass! But, on a big upnote, it should seriously cleanup the unused files section.
I'm also working on restructuring potential lost articles from the unused images while I'm at it. Like the Recursion article for example, there's a bunch of unused image content for it, so I'm working on compiling "like content" together in list form that I can make some temporary galleries out of. --Onideus 12:57, 22 February 2013 (EST)
is any space saved by deleting duplicates? ive found some duplicates useful when looking through old revisions of pages, and thought deletion of the files saves no space, but might be mistaken. -hipcrime 13:07, 22 February 2013 (EST)
Not a whole lot in general I would say, plus it's not like they're using any bandwidth, mostly it's important just as far as relieving file clutter and "keeping house" as it were. It makes it harder to check for new redundant/unused content when the "garbage bin" is already filled to the brim so to speak. --Onideus 13:14, 22 February 2013 (EST)

Categorized Unused Files

Presently right nyah: https://encyclopediadramatica.se/User:Onideus#Categorized_Unused_Material

I've only gone through the first 1,000 or so though. I'll be able to make some more categories the further I go in. I'll go back over it a few times as well to make some more, like on my second run through I'll probably do a "sports" category. I'm wondering if these should be put into their own article? --Onideus 14:41, 22 February 2013 (EST)

Uh...I take back what I said, it'll save a TON of space to clean/organize the unused files. Why? Well, at present, there are exactly 43,012 unused image files! o_O
I'm upto 41900 in my trawl through them; I've pulled cats (you're right in what you were saying about the gallery needing a sort out) and hot cocks... Some pics are duplicated on a ridiculous level. - Mr.Jonzz 11:56, 24 February 2013 (EST)
That makes it roughly 1/60th of the size of my entire Data Archive:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=580933655269784&l=c8bc81907a
Pretty damn impressive! Especially considering that's only ED's ~unused~ files. I'm guessing the whole of ED is likely around 1/3rd the size of my Data Archive.
--Onideus 16:29, 22 February 2013 (EST)

ED Is The New Image-Shack (and probably has been for a number of years)

I've been noticing a *LOT* of brand new users who are just...uploading completely random images...like one or two of them...and then they just leave and never come back. They don't ever add them to articles, they're immediately thrown into the "unused files" section and 10 to 1 says they're being hot-linked to offsite. I'm thinking that ED could probably save a whole epic ton of money on bandwidth costs if there was someway to correlate server access logs in conjunction with the "unused files" data. Like setup a script where in, if a particular "unused file" was posted say...longer than three days ago and was likewise being hot-linked to and was likewise uploaded by a new users, then it would be automatically flushed from the server. --Onideus 19:43, 22 February 2013 (EST)

It might be a good idea to add a suggestion on the upload file page that "if you are going to upload a file ONLY to link someone to it, or embed it somewhere other than ED (forum, website, etc.), then use Anonmgur instead.."-- Talk to me|Contribs 19:46, 22 February 2013 (EST)

check deleted contribs. sometimes those images are for articles that were deleted. -hipcrime 19:53, 22 February 2013 (EST)
Maybe someone can create a template explaining to the user that what they are doing is faggotry and urging them to use anonmgur instead. --zaiger (talk) 12:22, 3 March 2013 (EST)

Creepy Kids Shows

Is there an article for overly creepy kids shows? Cause...there ought be: http://www.thechestnut.com/finger.htm

Can you say, "creepy pedophile looking man"? *shudder* There were quite a lot of others too, some which I believed directly spurred/fueled the whole "furry" explosion in recent years. Like "Zoobilee Zoo" for example. That was like one giant fur suit faggotry party couched in the guise of being "edutainment". --Onideus 19:34, 26 February 2013 (EST)

Delicious Bacons?

Currently "bacon" redirects to this stupid meme: I Am Legend

I was thinkin about creating a new article though specifically ~for~ bacon, the food itself, mostly using all the material I've got in nyah:

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.258791304150689.87643.100000594643800

(along with a bunch of others I haven't gotten around to uploading into that album)

The question is...what to call it? Should it just be called "Bacon" and lose the redirect? Or maybe "Delicious Bacons" or some variation thereof? Thoughts? Ideas? Random philosophical ideology?

Mmmm, another idea would be to simply add it as a subsection of the Food article. *nods*

--Onideus 19:58, 1 March 2013 (EST)

If you feel an entire article can be made about bacon, I doubt anyone will stop you from writing it. As for the name, I'd go simply with "Bacon" but it's your article, you may name it however you'd like. The subsection thing sounds good too, but you'll need more foods to make subsections of, and most notable foods already got their own articles. -Gray 03:07, 2 March 2013 (EST)
Well, bacon is like uber popular online right now, there's a whole freakin slew of FB groups, articles and tons of bacon related products being churned out at the current moment (hence the 100+ picture album). Not exactly sure why it's become so popular as of late, I mean obviously it ~tastes~ freakin awesome, but I dunno, some of the products they're makin are pretty squirrely. Especially the bacon flavored baby formula. I thought it was a joke when I first saw it, but after looking into it...nope, it's actually for real. o_O
--Onideus 03:20, 2 March 2013 (EST)
Nothing should stop you from making an article then. -Gray
