May I rewrite the article?

I don't appreciate the pro-cat tone. It's something I'd expect from The cheeseburger network and Uncyclopedia. By the way, may I also merge it with Cats and CATS. -Gray 14:05, 11 July 2012 (EDT)

that seems like a fine idea, except CATS is unrelated, and i wouldnt merge that one into this. -hipcrime 14:21, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
Think you could rename CATS and redirect CATS to cat then? -Gray 14:34, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
  • maybe a hatnote? -hipcrime 15:20, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
I don't think the article needs to be rewritten by the by...cleaned up, yeah, but not really rewritten. Remember, it's supposed to be about documenting the lulz...and LOL Cats ~are~ lulz. Adding a "shock image" section would be good, but replacing ~all~ lulzy content with nothing ~but~ shock imagery...mmmm...doesn't seem very productive. Although a separate article ~could~ be created specifically ~for~ LOL Cats and then cat/cats/etc could just link to shock content. Just an idea. --Onideus 15:16, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
kittens. -hipcrime 15:20, 11 July 2012 (EDT)
But that's just general shock content, innt? Not like cat specific shock content. It would make more sense to have that link to a video of like "Crush Kitten" or something. *shudder*
See also: Zippocat.
Moar: Lolcats, Cheyenne Cherry, Camrose Cat Killers, Kenny Glenn, Bonsai Kitten, Meow Wars
Bonsai Kitten could use some redirects...like, Bonsai Kitty. --Onideus 15:38, 11 July 2012 (EDT)

Just To Make It Even Moar Complex

There's also this: Cats, as well as the entire CATEGORY of cats

Not to be confused with the before mentioned Cat or CATS, or Caturday for that matter.

Confused yet? --Onideus 16:08, 11 July 2012 (EDT)

I'm a fucking cat...
Recognise "Game"
Bitch!

RE: maybe a hatnote?

I don't like the CATS article and I don't want to make it more popular with a hatnote, so no. -Gray 18:44, 11 July 2012 (EDT)

Duplicates That Need Deleting

Larger, but poorer quality, upsized from original: https://encyclopediadramatica.se/File:Nazicat.jpg

I already removed the crappier ones from the article. --Onideus 06:04, 12 July 2012 (EDT)

I've just added a fuckload of Special:UnusedFiles... there are a couple of duplicates however these are 'unmolested' versions.

Example

Shit Font

Manul

Not really worth putting in the main gallery... enjoy!

Manul - The Cat that Time forgot.

whoa that's a pretty kitty. :) -hipcrime 00:26, 19 December 2012 (EST)
I was looking at it and thinking "What's wrong with this picture?"... then I read the article I linked above; "the pupils of the Manul are round, not slit-like" and I knew what it was. There's a good close-up here. :D - Mr.Jonzz 00:40, 19 December 2012 (EST)

I failed... :(

I was hoping to tip the gallery over 1000 by the new year but came up short, in my sandbox I now update a link to progress through unused files, all useable cat files have been filtered (pending new submissions) so feel free to dive in. - Mr.Jonzz 16:25, 7 January 2013 (EST)

Article Is Borked!

If you open the main gallery it'll pretty well crash yer browser and/or not load entirely. The galleries should be split apart, I recommend by the following categories:

  • Captions (if it has text on it)
  • Digital Editing (fauxpics/photoshops and the like)
  • Costumes (or clothing)
  • Animated

Also any MEME oriented ones should be moved to the MEME gallery, but there should just be *ONE* per meme (the rest should be moved to their own article). Like in the main gallery there's like a half dozen "invisible ******" meme cats. Or, on the flip side, if a particular meme does *NOT* have its own article, then it should get it's own sub gallery (presuming it has at least five pictures), otherwise the smaller set could just be put into the main meme gallery. --Onideus 01:02, 21 February 2013 (EST)

PS:

Opens/Loads fine for me (IE7)... :D - Mr.Jonzz 02:58, 21 February 2013 (EST)
It's variable, depending on your browser, system, etc. Every time I click on that gallery, on my system, the memory load shoots into the gigabyte range and on my DSL line it chokes on loading about halfway through...then sometimes crashes. Keeping in mind though I have 117 other tabs open in 3 instances of Firefox to boot. The browser/memory load probably isn't as bad if you don't have a bunch of other stuff open. But on the flip side, my system has EEC registered memory, so it's more stable, meaning that if someone with yer average shit grade Wal-Mart brand PC tries looking at the page it'll probably crash their entire system right off the bat. Having a 32bit OS vs a 64bit OS likely compounds the problem (since the former can't extend further than ~2 gigs of memory). But anyway, the bottom line is that it's horrifically over bloated with images and needs organizing, similar to the way I organized the FB page (although even that's not completely done as I still have to reorganize the original gallery into the new split form). --Onideus 03:21, 21 February 2013 (EST)

Article Is Now Organized!

Oooookay! I completely ripped all the galleries apart and then rebuilt them! And it only took EIGHT HOURS (straight)! :D

Now, there is a method to the seeming madness when it comes to organizing/categorizing, because you've got a lot of stuff that OVERLAPS categories. So, for that reason, I've got this nifty little "Order Of Importance" guide you can follow:

Memes > Disgusting & Disturbing > Animated > Drawings > Digital Editing > Costumes > Captions > General

Basically the first thing you do is ask yourself, "Is it a meme?" If it is, browse through the meme gallery and if there is ALREADY an image for that particular meme in it then DO NOT add another one! Instead GO TO the meme page itself and ADD IT THERE! If it's not a meme, the next question to ask yourself is, "Is it horribly disgusting and/or disturbing?" If yes, then put it in the Disgusting & Disturbing gallery. Next ask yourself, "Is it animated?" If yes, then put it in the animated section. You see how this works? Just follow along the guide from left to right and if it can't go in any of the main galleries then just stick it in the "General" gallery. Tres simple, non? --Onideus 11:33, 26 February 2013 (EST)

Non. - Mr.Jonzz 16:27, 26 February 2013 (EST)
Well if it's too confusing just stick new stuff at the bottom of the "General Gallery" and I'll sort it out later. --Onideus 16:32, 26 February 2013 (EST)

Meme Crap

There should only be *ONE* image for each meme in the "Meme Gallery". JUST ONE! If there's MORE than just ONE, then stick it on the meme article WHERE IT BELONGS! Also be sure to include a LINK to the meme article if you put something into the "Meme Gallery". --Onideus 15:00, 10 April 2013 (EDT)

Removed Crap

As I was working through the gallery I noticed an unbelievable amount of outright *SHIT*! I mean...I don't know what the fuck whoever added all this was smokin when they did it, but holy Christmas clusterfuck what a gawd awful slop mess! So, I ripped it all out and I'm stickin it here (rather than just deleting it outright). If you can come up with some relevant justification for putting any of this SHIT back in, boy I'd ~love~ to hear it! --Onideus 11:33, 26 February 2013 (EST)


Garbage & Crap About missing Pics
[Collapse GalleryExpand Gallery]

Mmmm, ya know, it has occurred to me that we ~could~ put this entire gallery into the article, with some more lulzy text along with it. Either leaving it as the "Garbage/Shit Gallery" or like a "What Not To Upload" gallery. In that respect it's at least ~kinda~ funny. --Onideus 16:44, 26 February 2013 (EST)

I've rehoused them you heartless bastard. - Mr.Jonzz 17:01, 26 February 2013 (EST)

Cats 'n Racks

I might make this into its own article or just add it to the present article when I get some moar stuffs for it (I have a gigantor folder somewhere). There actually used to be an ENTIRE website devoted to nothing but cats and breasts...not sure what happened to it. I also recently discovered a gigantor folder of "Kitlers", that is cats which look like Hitler, which could also be made into its own article.--Onideus 07:02, 30 July 2013 (EDT)

Cats 'n Racks About missing Pics
[Collapse GalleryExpand Gallery]

Mmmm, By The By

The titles of the sections can be changed around if someone doesn't like them the way they are. Like "fauxpics" could be changed to "photoshops". "Fauxpics" is just what I call them, mostly because I don't like giving credit to Adobe for every digital manipulation that's created. *shrugs* There's quite a few other names for them that could be used as well.

- Mr.Jonzz 00:36, 28 February 2013 (EST)

LOL, well, some people get kinda butthurt over my particular slang/writing style (I have no idea why), so I figured I'd mention it.  :)

--Onideus 01:24, 28 February 2013 (EST)

Butthurt over something liek ~this~ ? Idiots. *nods* - Mr.Jonzz 01:59, 28 February 2013 (EST)

Proposal For Gallery Sub-Page Breakdown

I can no longer edit this article...at all. With the number of tabs I keep open at a time and the sheer Brobdingnagian volume of images it's basically an insta-browser-crash button on ED for myself and probably quite a number of others. At present there are approximately 62 new images sitting on the "working" page:

https://encyclopediadramatica.es/User:Onideus/Working_Material#Cats

Obviously I'm not able to add them in and it seems no one else is taking the bother either. Gray used to do it but, well, he's gone now. Breaking the galleries apart onto sub-pages would solve the problem quite nicely though. Not all would have to be moved either, we could leave one or say a set of five for each category along with like a "more" button which would then bring the user to the sub-page with hundreds of related images in the present categories. I believe, at present, this article is actually ~the~ largest one on ED...at least image content wise. --Onideus 19:11, 7 October 2013 (EDT)

Well, if no one has anything intelligent to say about it then I'm just gonna go ahead and do it. --Onideus 22:55, 8 October 2013 (EDT)


Okay, I split the lil hairy bitch all apart, which was a major gawd damn pain in the ass. The format isn't absolutely finalized or anything, it could be tweaked/altered a bit, like with the "See More" and the back button image. I mostly just wanted to get the basic form down which I think works pretty good.

Uh, I decided to leave the entirety of the "memes" gallery intact...partially out of laziness and partially because I think it makes a little more sense to have them all together in one spot, but if anyone thinks otherwise we can go ahead and split that one apart too.

On an UP-NOTE, the article no longer crashes the fuck out of your browser when trying to load! :D

--Onideus 10:09, 13 October 2013 (EDT)

not my cat, the dude
