Excellent field manual

[edit]

Why is this excellent field manual labeled as humorous? ΔιγουρενΕμπρος! 18:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This article blew my mind. I failed to read the humor tag and thought this was a real article, which obviously goes against what wiki has set forth as far as neutral editing(which answers the above question). Haha. Good job. Made me laugh Ivtv (talk) 23:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The funny thing is about this article, many editors actually do the things suggested. Sigh Flipper9 (talk) 16:23, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I saw it in action, sigh2. --HappyInGeneral (talk) 01:23, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested edit

[edit]

As this is a user page I wouldn't dream of editing it. However, here is a suggested alteration to the opening paragraph:

Something ticks you off! As many good men and women have, you have your ideology, the motor of your existence. You have an opinion; nay, you have knowledge, and you wish to spread the Truth on wikipedia.

Kudos

[edit]

Rarely does one get as pithy and an accurate assessment of this recurring nightmare on Wikipedia. Great job. Dr. Dan (talk) 02:56, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps a solution

[edit]

To combat this my approach is to build up a sources page, (sample), to assist the RanSAI (random sanctimonious administrative intervention), making clear what is WP:notable, WP:NPOV and WP:DUE.

Any other thoughts? Looking forward to hear them, otherwise corporations and especially totalitarian governments might just have their way on Wikipedia, see: [1], [2]

Thanks! --HappyInGeneral (talk) 15:32, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Brilliant

[edit]

Couldn't be put better. It's like you've been following in detail my travails on Irish WP articles. Regards, Jdorney (talk) 12:20, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wasted

[edit]

A work of genius, you are wasted on wikipedia. Which is of course as it should be. Mah favourite (talk) 01:20, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is not funny.

[edit]

Well, actually it is, but only because it's true. I've seen it happen several times and I've been on WP for less than two years. Another such article should be created about the arrogance, self-righteousness, and pretentiousness of the Wikipedia community. At any rate, well done DOP.

Lol this "Guide" IS AWESOME!!!!!!! --190.60.93.218 (talk) 17:14, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dangerously accurate. Mind you - it may get censored and reverted ;)... Zezen (talk) 17:30, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Article improvement

[edit]

This is the attempt to make a general revert war strategy guide for baiting the original target audience. 75.117.226.44 (talk) 03:21, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
