→Cherry picking: be sure to click on the link on the BEANS page that you're not supposed to click on; btw, you can learn a valuable lesson from the BEANS article, geyser
(→Cherry picking: actually, I was referring to trees of hurting and sharpened hamsters and indian chiefs and other random self-indulgence that belongs on your blog or on uncyclopedia, not elsewhere) |

::<sigh>Because the Disclaimers page is ''so'' much funnier to ''such'' a larger audience :rolleyes:. The fact that you use the words "uncyclopedic spam" simply blows my mind when you were just talking about [[OniGalore:General disclaimer|this]] page in the same breath. Anyway, what I was trying to ask above was, How is the Disclaimers page in any way connected with your concept of browsing the wiki by serendipity? And don't get jumpy, I never said I was thinking of killing any initiative, I don't attack what I can't even begin to understand :-3. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 01:39, 27 October 2008 (CET) | ::<sigh>Because the Disclaimers page is ''so'' much funnier to ''such'' a larger audience :rolleyes:.

:::Quite simply, a list of ill side effects is a nice place to start browsing; every ill side effect linking to an article, ideally. Seen that way, the disclaimer has the potential of becoming a condensed site map (and I already told you that). Not in the present form, of course (remember that I was young and stupid when I stole SOW's disclaimer, so comparing your own silliness with it is not to your advantage), but as outlined in the footer and on the talk page (which I also linked to, for Mukade's sake). My own brainstorming and Gumby's should give you an idea of what's cooking. Just don't tell me we have to explain the meaning of every single item, because we all have better things to do right now. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 02:16, 27 October 2008 (CET) | :::Quite simply, a list of ill side effects is a nice place to start browsing; every ill side effect linking to an article, ideally.

::::Okay, now I get it, at least as much as I'm going to get it, I suppose. But if you think this plan was in any way clear before your last post, hate to tell ya, but it wasn't; don't act like you explained anything on the Disclaimers talk page, it's an incomprehensible list of gibberish right now. Whatever, have fun with it. | |||
::::P.S.: By injecting humor into official wiki pages such as [[OniGalore:Policy|Policy]], I am *trying* to preserve fun while adding functionality, sorry if you don't see it that way, but I daresay most people will; heck, even Wikipedia has [[wikipedia:WP:BEANS|joke pages]] as part of their system of policy articles. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 02:28, 27 October 2008 (CET) | |||
