[edit] Mocking other editor's beliefs
From the WikiFauna I am closest to the WikiSloth, but don't agree with this:
"At times, briefly mocking other editors' beliefs is what amuses them."
What do you think? Does this apply to any of you? If not it can be deleted.

- I agree to this last wording, Merkin's mum. I actualy caught myself with this kind of attitude recently. Federico Grigio, alias Nahraana (talk) 16:59, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WikiSloth template
The WikiSloth template doesn't automatically put users in a WikiSloths category, contrary to other WikiFauna species. Can someone with experience fix that? I am beginner and I could fix that if I research the Wikipedia's guidance pages on categories, but that's too much work for the moment.

- "Too much work for the moment." Spoken like a true WikiSloth! Welcome to the tree. Raymond Arritt (talk) 15:12, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- Lol true. But see below subheading, we can work if we feel like doing whatever it is.:) Merkin's mum 21:16, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- If you want the category too, the code is on the wikisloth page I think, I'll look. The userbox just isn't linked to it at the mo, but I'll fix it I promise. Merkin's mum 21:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, the category was deleted, and I doubt it will be a good move to recreate it. How about using Special:WhatLinksHere, with restriction to User namespace, in lieu of the category? (All WikiSloth user pages) — the Sidhekin (talk) 21:39, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oh I was just going to say it had been deleted, I only just found out. I wouldn't want us to be deleted lol, you sound like you know what you're doing so go ahead and set up the 'what links here' bit if you feel like it, sounds like a plan.:) Merkin's mum 22:01, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Someone made a userbox!!!!!
This user is a WikiSloth. |
Yay, thanks, I need to find out who it was. respect is due. Merkin's mum 21:16, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] essay versus humour
I would say this is humour
This page contains material which is kept because it is considered humorous. It is not intended, nor should it be used, for any remotely serious purpose. |
rather than an essay
As we're not proposing a policy or guideline. At least I don't think so. If all editors were wikisloths it would be a laugh, but we wouldn't get many long articles made if you're all much like me lol:) What do you all think? WP:WikiDragon has the big purple humour box at the top. I know all this is not humour as most outsiders would understand it, but still.:) We could decide on a consensus(joke) on which banner we should have, or we could just keep swapping them for amusement value.:) Merkin's mum 21:47, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Or, you could switch according to the day of the week ... {{#ifexpr:{{CURRENTDOW}}>2|{{humor}}|{{essay}}}}, yeilding
... today. :) — the Sidhekin (talk) 22:15, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

- Awesome, could you code it so that on April Fool's Day it becomes {{policy}}, then we don't have to think of a new prank every year; that would save a lot of work. --Merzul (talk) 11:36, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- ... {{#ifexpr:{{CURRENTDAY}} = 1 and {{CURRENTMONTH}} = 04 |{{policy}}|{{#ifexpr:{{CURRENTDOW}} > 2 |{{humor}}|{{essay}}}}}} ... — the Sidhekin (talk) 21:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

- Agree to humor. All other WikiFauna pages are also labelled as humorous. Federico Grigio, alias Nahraana (talk) 11:12, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
