Enemies of Day of the Ninja

Pastafarians belive that "Day of the Ninja" is a most unholy day. As pastafarians celebrate "Talk Like a Pirate Day", they are against this holiday, saying that ninjas were responsible for the downfall of the Flying Spaghetti Monster's chosen people. As the "Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" describes it, ninjas dressed as little children and tricked the pirates into letting them onto their pirate ships. Instead of the pirates sharing their candy, the ninjas killed them all. Among these pirates was the famous captain, Steven Farrarrgh, who was second only to Captain Mosey and the Flying Spaghetti Monster himself.

I removed this paragraph because while amusing, it's not official doctrine on any Pastafarian website I can see. If it becomes official then certainly it will be appropriate for the page description. aeonite 16:55, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Combining the Page with Ninja Burger

I agree with Aeonite. This holiday has really taken off this year, and deserves it's own wikipedia page. zachska87 00:52, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

While this would have been approriate for the Ninja Burger page a year ago, this year (2006) marked the first time that this holiday really got legs of its own. It saw independent support from at least 3 different groups with different names for the holiday and was heavily promoted by AskaNinja.com. I would vote that it keep its own page. aeonite 16:29, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, before anyone gets all delete-happy, the main reason I split this off the Ninja Burger page was so that it could be listed on the various category pages, most notably the Geek Holiday listing. You can't really put part of an article on a category page. --Paul Soth 18:12, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Alas, it got re-merged. I've helped make the transition back less painful. aeonite 07:43, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vlog vs Blog

In the paragraph where it links to the article for Ask A Ninja, is it supposed to "vlog" or "blog"? ---Xiggeh? 22:58, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"vlog" is somewhat commonly used to mean "video blog". I suppose podcast is more accepted usage, so I'll change it to that. aeonite 03:30, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

well, I feel stupid now. ---Xiggeh? 14:48, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
