cash donations?

Sorry if TJC is not the place to ask this. However: I am old. I am not good at computers. I don't have a bitcoin and don't want to use my paypal. But I would like to send ED money. Is there an address for cash donations? Maybe a PO box or something? --Nigripes 02:27, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

It's like this: Uncyclopedia parodies Wikipedia, with some Chuck Norris mixed in because kids edit it. Encyclopedia Dramatica parodies everything, with some porn mixed in because *channers edit it. Asking why I prefer ED is like asking why I prefer cow's milk to baby formula.

Chan board Articles

Well i tried moving all the boards with the board/ format to /board/ format so they are all organized and the same. I noticed you can create an article that starts with / but can't move a page to one that starts with /. It says there is an error. Also when choosing the page or read tabs on articles that start with / it leads to the blank domain(ex:/a/ would lead to Http:///a/). I know a lot of people already know this because you have to pipe board/ to link to a chan article. I know I can just copy+paste an article instead of moving it; and having all the boards in the same name format is pretty pointless, I just wanted to know what other people thought about this and what should be done.

tl;dr- articles that start with / are broken in a lotta ways-nobody gives a shit besides me-should we leave them as they are and not mess anything up or move them to all the same format, and what format if so?--Shika 02:06, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

God, Zaiger, get a life.

I came back here to see what was going on and got a message from Zaiger, which was inane, as usual. Just let it go, dude. Just chill. I don't care about you anymore. I don't want to try to write an article and have you being a whining bitch over it. I don't even really remember you, and I surely don't know you. Life is more than just cock, cock, and cocks.

I fucking hate PBF. He wrote the most obnoxious fucking thing on my talk page. Jesus Christ the ego on that guy, it's fatter than Sherrod. I'm thinking of writing the article about him (again), but I feel it would be incomplete without that garish post on my old talk page. The levels of USI on this guy are astronomical.

If i was a girl, i would get pregnant as many times as possible, then have abortions after the third month of being pregnant so i would deliver a potato sized 1/3 developed dead fetus, then i would take the fetus, put it in a jar of preservative liquid and put it on a shelf in a secret room in my house, and i would do it until i had so many that the rooms walls were nothing but potato sized aborted fetuses, then i would have a kid and when they're bad i would make them sit in the fetus room.

Since South Sudan took 85% of the entire Sudan's production with them when they seceded, it'll be interesting in see how state relations will change, especially their relations with the PROC.

Christfags sparking war on Pornography

PornHarms.com launched by Morality in Media, Inc. and Glenn Beck seems to be buying into this bullshit on his "newspaper" website The Blaze. The site claims that pornography is an addiction, that it promotes sexual predators, causes domestic violence, and promotes sex trafficking, unlike that other thing that "doesn't endorse those things and keeps families together." --SadMonkey 12:54, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

The only set that I think should be merged is the last one, cum and semen, cause they really are nearly identical. The others do have differences, albeit small ones. It would also benefit the last one, having them merged, cause the best material from each of the two could be combined and then the junk/filler can be removed, making a better article all around. --Onideus 11:35, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
Yes, but I think that if the others had a cleanup they would be very similar as well. The only thing that makes pages like Whore and Slut different is the over editing that has turned them into two pages that present the same thing; they are just worded differently. 18:27, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
If you are going to merge cum and semen please actually merge them, don't just redirect one to the other. Leave cum as the main article, and please take the time to clean it up as well, as both articles are in a terrible state of disarray. Thanks guys :) --zaiger (talk) 22:43, 25 July 2011 (CEST)

  • More skin choices, more updated software, RevDel, better protection from DDoS attacks, and sysops who don't treat the fanbase as something to get rid of. --JuniusThaddeus 15:33, 25 July 2011 (CEST)

Solutions & ways to improve

  • Upload moar broken images, templates and gifs EmilyPlays 14:07, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
  • Delete articles we already have plenty of examples of Exhibits for. (Note I mean FUTURE articles) Equivamptalk 19:08, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
    • Don't delete anything that isn't a brand-new shitpost. The policy on the old wiki was do not delete or suggest to delete anything that is older than your account. This is difficult to judge now that the revision tables are gone, but you should know that if you were not a member of the old wiki DO NOT delete or suggest to delete anything that was from the old wiki. We want an article on anything and everything, Google highly indexes wikis and in order for us to get new users and readers we need more Google results. Who cares if an article isn't perfect when it is brand new? This is a wiki, someone will come along and add to it eventually, that's how wiki's work. --zaiger(talk) 22:54, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
      • That's just the thing--if it's just going to become an article exhibit, what would other editors have to contribute? That's why it's an exhibit--it means nothing, and no one cares. Do you want ED to become a trashdump of butthurt for the sake of traffic? Equivamptalk 23:05, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
        • The wiki is already a trash dump of butthurt. What is not funny to you may is funny to someone else. Every shitty stub we have contains meaning to someone or a group of someone's somewhere. This is how ED has always been run and I think we have done pretty well with that policy so far, don't you think? --zaiger (talk) 23:16, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
          • Okay, so I could write an article like this:
   
“ 		 
John Doe is a fagget. He's a racist homo and he deserves to die!!!!!!!!!
  		„
  		 

          • And you would keep it, just so Google indexes it? Equivamptalk 23:22, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
  • When did I say that? I am pretty sure what I said was don't delete anything that isn't a brand-new shitpost. That sounds like a shitpost to me. What you said was delete anything we already have plenty of examples of. We already have plenty of YouTube users, why would we delete a funny new article on a yt user just because we have plenty already? That's a stupid idea, and as such it is rejected. --zaiger (talk) 23:30, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
    • You misunderstood what I said. "plenty of examples of EXHIBITS for" is what I said. Equivamptalk 23:35, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
        • The important thing is that it impresses with lulz, not be shiny new and orijinal. Butthurt and usi, while undesirable, are still lulz inducing traits we can not do without.- Vinland 23:25, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
    • User_talk:H64#Restoring_shit_articles, mw:Manual:$wgNamespaceRobotPolicies – Now that we have access to everything, we should probably stop indexing junk in the userspace. --JuniusThaddeus 21:52, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
  • There is a torrent on TPB with every single image from the old wiki, download it, pick an article, search for the missing images (THEY ARE ALL THERE), upload them, rinse, repeat. It's not that difficult. I don't want to hear anyone complain about the images being missing when you are not making any attempt to replace them when they are all available for download. The only person I have seen who is doing this is Dekoman, and he still has 31 thousand more images to upload, I am sure he could use some help.--zaiger (talk) 22:54, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
        • ATTENTION: FFS please use Category:Finished_Articles from now on to group presentable articles together. Then if anyone decides to pick an AOTN, they can use this to do it. Time to fill it up. - Vinland 10:45, 30 July 2011 (CEST)

I'm thinking about a new section...

How about a "this week in lulz" something that can be written each week about the progressing lulz (current events, notable new articles, etc...) It would be posted on the Friday of each week, summarizing the previous week's events. We could even put it on the main page or something. What do you guys think? --e 15:33, 25 July 2011 (CEST)

I think it's a good idea. EmilyPlays 15:51, 25 July 2011 (CEST)

ED.com had "this month in lulz". If anything, we could bring that back. 17:06, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
I agree with Meepsheep on the TMIL idea. PieAreSquare use to write them and they would be featured on the last 2 days of every month. --zaiger (talk) 22:55, 25 July 2011 (CEST)
What do you guys think about replacing the ED Blog with TMIL? The page could be worked on as events occur and the section on the main page could be updated every week? 00:16, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
Yeah if you want to manage it, or at least set it up, I am all for it. The Main Page definitely is in need of some serious revamping. --zaiger (talk) 00:29, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
Yeah. I'll work on it later tonight. Did TMIL have it's own page or was it always on Main Page/This Month In Lulz. I can't remember. 00:34, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
No, it was used as the AOTN on the last day of each month. --JuniusThaddeus 01:29, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
I know that, I was just asking what the title of the page used was. 01:32, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
Sorry. I don't remember. --JuniusThaddeus 01:37, 26 July 2011 (CEST)
It had it's own page. It was This Month in Lulz/date I THINK.--zaiger (talk) 18:23, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
Also, can someone please create an article on 2011 (something like 2010)? --JuniusThaddeus 01:31, 26 July 2011 (CEST)

I'll start this next month and see if I'm any good at it. 05:48, 29 July 2011 (CEST)

Weekly article

Alright well I was thinking once a week we could feature an old ED article that was good and has lost a nice amount of the pictures/gifs on it, feature it somewhere(BNA portal? Main page? Maybe just add a note to the top of TJC?) and if everyone goes and uploads one or 2 missing pictures that article will easily be restored, and slowly we will restore at least the more popular old articles, please tell me whether this is good or not and what could be improved for the idea--Shika 00:25, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

I think something like this would be a good idea. However, I believe Dekoman (sorry if I misspelled your name) takes requests for articles he should restore images to. 00:41, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

I'll just leave this here

On a more serious note, this should help for being mentioned on TOW. Equivamptalk(Troll me here) 03:36, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
We already are mentioned on TOW. 03:47, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

Well you'll forgive me if I don't frequent the site. Equivamptalk(Troll me here) 03:49, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

I left it there, who knows if they will accept it as a source. Any other subject it would be fine, but when it comes to ED they pull out all kinds of obscure policies. Honestly anyone with enough knowledge of Wikipedia policy could keep any content out of any article, it is contradictory. --zaiger (talk) 03:49, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
I am actually working on an article dealing with contradictory TOW policy, lol. 03:52, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

Operation PayPal

Anonymous is pissed at PayPal--warning everyone to cash in and cancel their accounts. The moar you know. Equivamptalk(Troll me here) 06:53, 27 July 2011 (CEST)

I doubt anything will happen other than DDoS attacks. Then again, PayPal is known for shitty security. 07:44, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
Lol mob mentality! Everyone is closing their accounts. PayPal has even started restricting people from cancelling. Equivamptalk(Troll me here) 07:49, 27 July 2011 (CEST)
  • Can someone start an article please.--zaiger (talk) 00:44, 28 July 2011 (CEST)
Would it be better to include it as a section in the Operation Payback article? 00:49, 28 July 2011 (CEST)
I think it deserves it's own page, but whatever works. --zaiger (talk) 01:34, 28 July 2011 (CEST)
At this point we should just hold off until something else happens, at that point we can decide what to do. 01:30, 29 July 2011 (CEST)

series templates

IMO they look weird. I liked them before when they didn't link every series and the images actually fit. I want to roll them back. Can I get a consensus here on what other people think? --zaiger (talk) 00:43, 28 July 2011 (CEST)

I like the look of the current portal templates, but I suppose we could go with something that looked more like the portal designs. Also, does anyone else think that all non-portal series templates should only be semi-protected? 00:46, 28 July 2011 (CEST)
What I mean is that this looks better than this. the image doesn't fit and we already have a list of portals on the side of every page. There is no need to have it in every template as well, it adds a lot of unnecessary bulk to the article. It's really bothering me. --zaiger (talk) 01:32, 28 July 2011 (CEST)

Should we give gaming back to thatonekid or whatever his name is, and have luigalaxy take over another one?Also i think we should give some to any EDitors if there is a shortage of caretakers--Shika 02:46, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
HOW ABOUT WE GET SOMEONE TO TAKE CARE OF THE MAIN PAGE FIRST? The AOTN, POTN, and VOTN were ALL blank and there is zero lineup. People are going to start losing privs really fast if I have to continue doing everything on site and off. The AOTN didn't get changed for 4 days before I added the one that is up now. I am serious, I will be the only active admin if I am going to be doing everything anyways while everyone else just bans everyone and moves articles into userspace to be forgotten instead of taking the 2 minutes to clean the shit up. I have zero problem with that. --zaiger (talk) 03:09, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
Alright, I will start updating that shit. 03:15, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
I wasn't talking about you by the way, you are one of the only ones who does anything, along with junius. Just change the AOTN for the next couple days so please so it's not the same thing. --zaiger (talk) 03:34, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
I added the Music Portal to the list because I have too much on my plate already and I haven't changed it in a month at least. The LULZ soundtrack is good enough to keep featured on there forever though so it's not really a big deal. --zaiger (talk) 04:02, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
I added it to the topic in IRC, the Chans portal needs a major cleanup, if nobody takes that in a day or 2, i will take it over and clean it up and maybe then someone will take it--Shika 04:10, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
Also I'm sorry for blowing up, I am just stressed to the max and when I saw the 3 red links for the 3 major templates in the main page I got majorly buttmad. Everyone is doing a great job, just everyone please pay more attention to the Main Page. You don't have to be a sysop to add the AOTN etc by the way, but you do have to be a regular user. Just stick to the layout. The AOTN/POTN and VOTN should be lined up for a week at a time. I know everything got fucked up while we were down so it's not really anyone's fault. Does anyone have any suggestions for articles to feature? --zaiger (talk) 05:14, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
It's alright, man. I got an idea, and I may be a slowpoke about this if it's already there, but: try increasing task visibility? ie. list of needed shit and tasks to do around ED (at this time we have plenty) and place a link to that list either in navigation or at the very top of ED so it cascades to all pages? I know we have pages, but the real problem is so simply not enough people visiting those pages and lists of needed stuff on ED.
And I know that while we decided to turn a new leaf, old ED managed to get a little more done because of a template that specifically listed tasks constantly (I forgot the name; I purged my memory of those days. Oh well.) - Vinland 16:35, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
Yeah def. Also nobody has lined anything up yet. I am going out and I hope when I get home there is at least an AOTN for when it changes in a couple hours.--zaiger (talk) 16:46, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
I plan on adding quite a bit to the Silver Seren article over the next few days. I suppose that could work seeing as how he is relevant to ED atm. 05:39, 29 July 2011 (CEST)
I will clean up faggotry, recolor it and add new depts etc., and hopefully another user will be happy to take it over when its all purty, please give me some time though, im going to be busy IRL the next 2 days and cannot edit it majorly 'til then--Shika 11:30, 30 July 2011 (CEST)

Shit to do

Hey, i noticed Vinland and zaig talking about this, and we really should add a special page for just a list of shit to do, like POTN, AOTN, VOTN, and QOTN, portals needing caretakers, and maybe a list of all the recent articles currently under construction for a new person/event, while we all know main page maintenance is a must now, it wouldnt hurt to have a page for stuff that is urgent--Shika 11:37, 30 July 2011 (CEST)

All of that can be added to ED:NEED. 17:06, 30 July 2011 (CEST)
There was a template with links to everything that needed to be done that could be attached to userpages etc called "Template:Open tasks" or something, I will look for it on the wayback machine. If anyone else could help find it I would really appreciate it. It would be a HUGE help. --zaiger (talk) 20:02, 30 July 2011 (CEST)
Ok I got it, fixing it up now. --zaiger (talk) 20:10, 30 July 2011 (CEST)
So are we using ED:NEED or the page zaig is putting up? ill add some sections to either one when we decide-----I started adding to ED:NEED so we might as well keep that--Shika 00:37, 31 July 2011 (CEST)
Well this is what I am working on, it's not a place to add things we need, but more of a portal for regular site maintenance. It's not finished yet tho, it is just a copypaste from the old wiki, but almost all of the links in the template are getting changed so don't take it to seriously as of right now.

Regarding our donations and financial situation

Just so you guys know, Plimus froze our donation account and is holding all the donations we got the other weekend for a period of 90 days.

This is because apparently is it against their TOS to use their service for donations. Someone notified them as to our violation of their user agreement and as such they froze our account.

Could this be avoided in the future by selling an actual product instead of soliciting "donations"? For example, you could create a copyrighted image and sell licensed copies of that image for $20 apiece (with no limit on the number of copies an individual could purchase). Samefag 04:39, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Because of this we are just scraping by. Once our funds get released around the 15th of October we will be ballin' and able to pay our bills for a year (That was the plan to begin with before they decided to be gay), but for the next 2 and a half months things will be tight.

We may have to beg for donations again in order to pay for next month. We don't want to, but if it comes down to it that is what will have to be done. Also we may be adding a couple of ads to the forum or something, we haven't decided though.

Just thought we would let you guys know what was going on. --zaiger (talk) 20:00, 30 July 2011 (CEST)

Their AUP says it requires pre-approval..? TKN 20:20, 30 July 2011 (CEST)
Well we didn't get pre-approval. Now they are holding our money for 90 days to give anyone who thinks they may have been scammed time to get a refund, then they will release it to us. It will just be a little tight until that happens and we may have to do a secret PayPal fund drive where people who want to donate will be the only ones given the email for the PayPal. I don't know yet, we haven't really decided. I don't think we will have to worry about down time or anything though. --zaiger (talk) 20:28, 30 July 2011 (CEST)
