NFL infobox[edit source]
Yo, so a couple things. First, you've probably seen that I added Bills' colors to the box. I don't know if you tried to do that before, but I just added the templates necessary to make that work, should work with any team. Feel free to remove it. Also you might have seen the coin toss stat I added. Also, of course, feel free to change/remove that, just a suggestion.
Now, you're probably wondering why the "Career NFL Statistics" section is all over on the right side. For the life of me, I can't figure out why this glitch exists, but fortunately it is a small glitch. This only happens to this infobox in user space. So when you move this article to main space, the problem will go away.
I also really like what you've done so far with your article on Antonio Brown.
Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers. MrX 06:35, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- @MrX: glad you like! You're welcome to keep adding to either the Josh Allen or AB page if you have any awesome ideas. I think a few more pictures and Allen's page will be ready for the mainspace here, or whatever you guys call it. Regards, Orangutang94 (talk) 06:43, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- Ok cool, I'll see what I can come up with. Also feel free to add to any of my articles, like Colin Kaepernick or any of them really. Eventually we'll have to create an article and absolutely roast my favorite team, the Las Vegas Raiders. Too much low hanging fruit there. We can also call out the NFL for all the injustices committed against the Raiders over the years of course. Did you know John Elway was almost a Raider? I just found this out. The commissioner vetoed the three-way trade with the Bears and Colts just cuz he hated Al Davis. Anyway, keep up the good work! MrX 06:49, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- Damn... didn't know that about the Raiders. I'll try to come up with something as well! Can already think of fast WR's, Gruden and all his schenannigans, Jamarcus Russell ('nuff said), and all the moving. I'm also considering a WikiNews on the Brian Flores fiasco but wonder if it's too late... --Orangutang94 (talk) 07:59, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hey, I meant to respond sooner, anyway yeah there's tons of material for multiple articles with everything you just mentioned. As for an UnNews about Brian Flores, first off it's never too late to do an UnNews. You can write about something any time. If you want, you can add Template:Late delivery to the top of an article to kind of help the reader try to think in a past frame of mind, here's an example from an article I wrote in 2021 about an event in 2017, but this is by no means a requirement. Also, with the Brian Flores thing, the announcement may have been a few weeks ago, but a case like this is still very early in the shitstorm that will soon unfold, so it'll be fresh for a while. Looking forward to funny stuff ahead. Cheers. MrX 22:11, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

File naming[edit source]
Hi!
I see that you're uploading new media to Uncyclopedia — that's great! No, more than that, it's wonderful! But wanna know what's even better?
Why, the answer is simple: new media files that are descriptively named so that your fellow editors can find and use and reuse and appropriate them as needed. So, uh, you might wanna consider fixing this, this and this. Just a thought.
Cheers! --

UnSignpost delivery for June 20, 2022[edit source]
Hello, Uncyclopedians. It is with great UnPleasure that I say that I, ARandomPage, pictured to the left, have stolen your UnSignpost, and am now the lead writer, sandwich-thrower, picture-stealer, and UnSignpost-er! URA HA HA! But fear not. I am willing to give you back your UnSignpost... for a high price of winning a Sandwich of the Month. wait. What? Now I have to actually write UnSignposts regularly? What do you mean I'm not an admin and can't write this thing yet? What do you mean by "the role of sandwich-thrower is one you just made up?".. GOD.
DAMMIT.------------
Sandwich of the Month is finally up!
By ARandomPage
Yes, you heard that right! After 12 years and 5 months, we FINALLY made a Sandwich of the Month award! No more broken Sandwich of the Month link that just goes to Vote for Sysop; there's actually a Sandwich of the Month award now! This new award is used as a glorified thanks system. Or exactly the opposite. Yeah, uh... That's it. I don't know how to explain further. Templates for it were made as well, I guess. The best part? It's not on the award template, because whoever made the award can't edit fully-protected pages and is too lazy to make an edit request! Wait a second. That's the best part? Who put THAT sentence in?..
ARandomPage has gone crazy!
By Unnamed Space
BREAKING NEWS! It has been discovered that ARandomPage, one of Uncyclopedia's newer editors, is apparently a madman with too much time on their hands. A full list of their crimes is here:
- Opening the floodgates stopping the fish migration
- Labelling everyone traitors who deserve "depth"
- Naming an entire war-conflict-fiasco without any consensus
- Not bothering to finish either of their articles
- Fixing errors... wait, no, that's a good thing
- Vandalizing the Hobo Queen 2's page
- Stealing the UnSignpost
- Rearranging the UnSignpost... wait, I think it works better this way
- Not even bothering to check if anyone else has plans to steal the UnSignpost
Biopic
This edition's biopic is one on stealing the UnSignpost. Since for some reason, literally nobody bothers to check on the UnSignpost, people can easily steal the UnSignpost... up to the part where they have to message Cassie, a sporadically-active bureaucrat, about delivering it. That, or manually deliver their stolen work to every UnSignpost subscriber... or, since you're doing it manually, just every active user. Hey, that's not such a bad idea! I'LL DO IT!

MCU and DCEU[edit source]
Hi there Orangutang. Have you ever considered also bringing your MCU or DCEU articles to the spoon (uncyclopedia.com)? I feel like it would help fill in one of the info "gaps" we have over there.--174.55.91.169 (talk) 00:36, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
Joe Buck[edit source]
Love it so far! Same with Mahomes. Anyway, just in case, I wanted to make sure you're aware of the little known fact that Joe Buck is a mathematician. Cheers. MrX 05:48, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks Mr. X! I'll be sure to include Bucky's "maths" skills somehow. --Orangutang94 (talk) 04:28, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
Whale[edit source]
Smash!
You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Taxworm just wants to let you know that you did something really silly, which may or may not include absolutely nothing, ARandompage told me to send this to you

Jan 6th. hissy fit[edit source]
Yes, it was a hissy fit, but it was a hissy fit that involved people dying. The rioters were mostly idiots that had no combat experience, leading to one of them being easily and avoidably shot to death by a police officer, but the sheer number of them allowed them to kill some of the police there and injure others. Microsoft for POTUS (talk) 02:19, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- That's fair. I thought it would be a funny addition but feel free to revert if you feel that joke was inappropriate. I guess that incident is just really hard to make light of, or if it's still too soon.--Orangutang94 (talk) 03:23, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah it's acceptable, I decided to change it to an organized violent hissy fit, because it is funny while also not being unnecessarily disrespectful to the people there (like how we have a news article saying that 9/11 might have been an outside job, while also acknowleding that it was a violent terrorist attack). Microsoft for POTUS (talk) 03:32, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Actually none of the cops were killed by protestors. But more importantly than the inaccuracy, the word violent made it less funny. MrX 04:04, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah... I'll just stay of this and let you guys debate. I'm fine with whatever.--Orangutang94 (talk) 04:14, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
- That's true that it makes it less funny. I didn't realize none of them were actually killed by the protestors. Microsoft for POTUS (talk) 15:17, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Your articles[edit source]
Hi Orangutan. Would it be possible for you to bring any of your articles over to the spoon at uncyclopedia.com (or maybe allow me to bring the over)? They're quite brilliant and hilarious, especially the Morbius one.--174.55.91.169 (talk) 09:14, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

Infobox Colors[edit source]
Thank you for your help on the Joe Burrow article. I was wondering if you were able to add the Bengals black and orange colors to the infobox I made (or tell me how) because I have no idea how to do it. Thanks. --Packman87 (talk) 00:12, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
- You were missing the underscore (_) in “current_team”. Infoboxes can be weird, sometimes those things matter but sometimes spaces don’t matter. MrX 00:24, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
Yup, what Mr. X said. Sometimes it's just a syntax issue which you gotta play around with. The "show preview" button is your friend in that case. -- OranguTang94 (Complaint board) (Damage trail) 15:36, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
McAllay Calkin[edit source]
It's Macaulay Culkin. Also, it's McCallister. :) PF4Eva, the President of Imagination Vote for me My tax returns
I'll admit I'm an engineer and sportzball fan first, writer second, so my apologies on the typo. Probably why the only writing "gig" I ever got was on UnNews XD. Also it's been a while since I watched Home Alone, and Macaulay Calkin is such an odd name to spell..
Either way, appreciate yhe pointer, and I'll whip up an article shortly on this with some pop-culture and sports references. Maybe one on Luigi the CEO killer as well. OranguTang94 (Complaint board) (Damage trail) 07:00, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
