Uncyclopedia:Votes for deletion

DO...

For nominators: DO...

1. ... Find articles that suck by checking here, here and here. Many articles avoid the police for years before someone trips over them.
2. ... Read Uncyclopedia's deletion policy to make sure the article is eligible. If you abuse VFD you will be abused with the claw-end of a hammer.
3. ... Check the page-history! It may have been vandalized or just edited by morons. If so, find a better version and revert to it.
4. ... Add {{vfd}} to the article. Failure to do so may result in hemorrhoids. You have been warned.
5. ... Vote and include a comment as to why you have nominated the article.

For voters: DO...

1. ... Edit the section for the article you are addressing.
2. ... Pick a space under the appropriate heading (Keep, Delete, Comment), adding your sig/comment, preceded by a '#', like so: '''#'''This article isn't funny. ~~~~
3. ... Remember to sign and timestamp your vote with four tildes. Unsigned votes will be removed and their owners defenestrated. You have been warned, again.

For Administrators: DO...

• ... Allow 24 hours before closing a nomination or deleting an article.
• ... Remove and archive closed nominations from the voting page.
• ... Delete any unused images from deleted articles. If necessary, check what links to the article and remove any backlinks. Delete any broken redirects left behind.
• ... Add {{Oldvfd}} to the article's talk page if it is kept.

DON'T...

• ... Revert administrators.
• ... Re-nominate any kept article for at least a month. If you do, you will receive a bollocking.
• ... Remove ANYTHING from VFD if you are neither an Administrator nor a designated Poopsmith. If you do, you will be banned for a very long time.
• ... Increase the number of articles on VFD to over 20. Violators will receive a free 1-day ban. This means, do not increase the number of active votes on VFD to over twenty. Inactive votes look like this (after the page's deletion), and closed nominations look like THIS to indicate that they have been kept.

Pages for Deletion

Make sure that you have read the rules (above) and the deletion policy. Please don't nominate Main Page or Votes for Deletion; that joke has been done so many times we might just beat you with a nail bat before we tear our hair out in frustration. This also applies to Featured Articles and Uncyclopedia In-Jokes.

How to quickly find VFDable articles (using special pages):

• Check Special:DeadendPages, Special:LonelyPages and Special:UncategorizedPages. Often many articles can slip through the cracks of ICU or QVFD and remain on Uncyclopedia for very long periods before someone randomly stumbles upon them. Editors sometimes also keep useful lists on user subpages.

Notes for Administrators:

• Allow at least 24 hours before closing a nomination or deleting an article.
• Remember to delete any unused images from deleted articles and, if necessary, check what links to the article and remove any backlinks. Make sure to delete any broken redirects created as well.
• To avoid confusion, try to remove closed nominations which cause the page to exceed to 20 articles.
• If a nomination is kept, please add {{Oldvfd}} to the article's talk page.

To add an article, edit this section, and follow the directions in the comments.

---

Don't flood VFD full of articles, or at least leave a space between your nominations.

If you increase the number of articles on VFD to over 20, you will be blocked for 1 day, no exceptions. This means do not increase the number of active votes on VFD to over twenty. Inactive votes are shown with either a red link (where they have been deleted), or with the Closed nomination tag to indicate that the article has been kept. You have been warned.

Please remember to check an article's history, in case of recent or long term vandalism, before nominating an article. Also, check the article's talk page and 'What links here' for prior nominations. If the article has been nominated before there will be a link from a VFD archive page.

Keep (1)	Keep. I put a lot of work into making it presentable, and I still maintain that it is not bad enough for deletion. Saberwolf116 (talk) 17:18, September 13, 2012 (UTC)
Delete (3)	Nonsense, unfunny article that deserves scrapping in my view. RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) Delete. Should have been deleted in July, nothings changed so yes burn it! ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 07:17, September 13, 2012 (UTC) Delete. This self-satisfied flight of fancy, of the Wacky War genre, is giving me deja vu--Didn't we indeed kill this once before? Spıke ¬ 10:51 13-Sep-12

Chaga's disease

Score: 0 Elapsed Time: 103402 hours
Keep (2)	Keep. Well-written article about a real disease. (Found on Wikipedia without the apostrophe. Here, it is spread by the transatlantic-cruise bacterium and by a 9-stone insect: How can you say it's not close to funny?) Later, it does seem to descend into ramble, and it ought to steal a few photos from Wikipedia. Spıke ¬ 22:28 11-Sep-12 Keep. - It'd take work to make it good but it certainly isn't bad enough for deletion - jack mort | cunt | talk - 04:02, September 12, 2012 (UTC)
Delete (2)	Disintegrate. As a story, I will admit I found myself quietly engrossed. As an Uncyclopedia article, it's not even close to funny. Saberwolf116 (talk) 07:55, September 11, 2012 (UTC) Gayer than Christmas. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 12:08, September 11, 2012 (UTC)

Paneveggio

Keep (2)	Keep. I edited it a little and added a photo. It is a nearly real article about a real place, and mostly spares us from generic gripes like those we all have about where we live. Spıke ¬ 15:35 8-Sep-12 Short but not too bad. -- Sir Xam Ralco the Mediocre 15:58, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

Massachussetts (redirect)

Score: 0 Elapsed Time: 103483 hours
Keep (3)	Keep. If you were a user who didn't know how to spell Massachusetts, as opposed to an author who doesn't know how to spell Massachusetts, the redirect would have taken you to the article you wanted, as it will eventually take your readers there when they click on the misspelled link. In other words, this is useful--though surely not the most common misspelling of the name. Spıke ¬ 15:18 8-Sep-12 Spike makes a good point. If you're writing an article and you're not sure of the spelling, look it up. -- Sir Xam Ralco the Mediocre 15:56, September 8, 2012 (UTC) Harmless. And potentially helpful. -OptyC Sucks!

Delete (3)	Delete. - This is a proposal to delete this redirected misspelling of the name of the commonwealth, NOT THE HILARIOUS ARTICLE ITSELF. The reason is that it encourages use of said misspelling in an article. It's an easy and forgivable misspelling. The namers of this commonwealth were high on - ahem - "tea" - when they named it and now no one can spell it. I spelled it this wrong way in good faith and linked it in a recent article, and since the link went blue I lazily went ahead with it, making my UnNews look stoopid. Again, the point is that keeping this redirect encourages this common misspelling for no good reason. In fact, the only reasons I can think of to keep it are for existing misspelled links (which can be fixed) and so people searching for our brilliant Massachusetts article on the search page don't have to know how many god damn sssss's it has (which so what, who really is uising search for that purpose?). -- GlobalTourniquet: UnAstrologer, UnJournalist, shameless narcissistic America-hating liberal atheist award-winning featured writer 22:48, September 7, 2012 (UTC) Writing it like that would change the pronounciation. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 00:37, 8 September 2012 Gayer than Christmas ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 11:51, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
