Guess what, folks? There isn't gonna be one. What we might have instead is a person or a small group of people or even a relatively large group of people taking care of stuff in the UnNews namespace. You don't need to be approved by a vote to do this, you don't even need to apply for the job to do this, all you have to do to do this is... wait for it... just do it. This is a wiki and you, yes you, are allowed to edit it.[1] So... what are you allowed to do then? Basically, most of the things the previous UnNews Czars were allowed to do, though both SPIKE and TheHumbucker have had their moments of enforcing things they shouldn't really have been enforcing and shouldn't have had the authority to enforce all by themselves either. So when do you know you're going a little bit overboard while trying to take care of UnNews in whatever way you're convinced is best? Well, when you're sure that, being just 1 regular contributer to the site, you don't have the authority to make a certain important decision and need approval from the community, and you make that important decision on your own and enforce it anyway, that's when you're going overboard. Additionally, when people are complaining about you having dictatorial tendencies, that might be a good indication as well.

In conclusion, feel free to do all the UnNews-related editorial/janitorial jobs you feel like doing, but realize that when you go out of line[2], getting banned certainly is a possibility. So please don't go out of line.

Yeah, pretty much.

Wow I didnt realise it was so easy to empower everyone like that. A couple paragraphs and suddenly the wiki is run by everyone. I assume that all the regular users will be given admin status tomorrow as well so that all the other parts of the wiki will be run in the same way :) When should we expect that?--ShabiDOO 23:56, July 31, 2011 (UTC)
That reminds me, we really need an article on Committee. Maybe we should have a committee of unspecified persons write it?-- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 00:12, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
You're not any more empowered now than you were before. It's a wiki, you can edit and you're allowed to edit as long as you don't do bad things. Some people seem to have forgotten about that.

Little explanation as to why I created this little forum as people like to assume bad faith, apparently[3]

Right, so Olipro was telling me about how TheHumbucker left after telling him that he wouldn't leave. Sadly, though, he did leave. As sad as the fact of a great contributer to the site leaving may be, we have to move on. Now, the thought that had me worried went something like "What happens now? Who will take charge of things? Either hardly anyone will still edit the templates and UnNews will become semi-abandoned, or everybody will try to edit the templates the way they see fit and disputes will arise over who has authority." This is why I felt the need to spell out my vision of how UnNews could be run without any unnecessary drama arising. What I also wanted to do was to encourage multiple users to go ahead and get involved with UnNews and find a good way to run it, together. Part of that message may have gotten lost in the whole "don't misbehave or you'll get banned" thingy, but it's in there somewhere, I assure you.

  1. Unless you're banned, of course.
  2. This includes causing or augmenting drama, causing or augmenting revert wars and abusing whatever power/authority you think you have.
  3. That really hurts my feelings, you know. I'm not a bad faith guy. Do I really look like one?
This is a very reasonable explanation and I apologize for assuming your bad faith; of course you don't strike me as the guy, which was why I was particularly surprised in the first place and assumed (somewhat correctly) that Olipro inspired this. Still, I see this whole forum as kind of redundant to let it keep going, but as a capstone it does alright now.--Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 01:44, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
You know, just having re-read what I wrote up there, I can see how a lot of it can be interpreted as a nasty stab towards the previous UnNews Czars. But most of it really isn't.

I'm with Skully

When he deleted this. This is a pretty unnecessary topic. You coulda just put this as a response on that other UnNews topic thing, and you shoulda done that because that's where this belongs. Making a whole new topic is wholly unnecessary, and reeks of grandstanding. Forum topics started as "an end to an argument" never work because you're making a whole new forum about it. So thanks for letting us know about the outcome of that vote. But next time, keep it to the page of the vote. And now that's the real end of it. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 00:24, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

You're upset because I created this on a new page and didn't put it on the one Olipro protected a tad ago and people weren't looking at anymore because they were tired of the pointless drama? Weird.

And you created a new page after the old one was protected by Olipro a tad ago and people weren't looking at it anymore because they were tired of the pointless drama. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 00:33, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, because Olipro was whining to me about how TheHumbucker left and I needed to get that out of my system. Sir SockySexy girls.jpg Mermaid with dolphin.jpg Tired Marilyn Monroe.jpg (talk) (stalk)Magnemite.gif Icons-flag-be.png GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 00:35, 1 August 2011
Ah. Well I'm glad you got it out of your system. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 00:39, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
Whining? but I didn't get any cheese![1] -- Prof. Olipro Icons-flag-gb.png KUN (W)Anchor Op Bur. (Harass) 02:18, August 1, 2011 (UTC)
  1. also, I sorta resent that comment and consider it a "tad" disingenuous

I'm with Olipro

We're in a hot tub filled with beef dripping, sipping cocktails (mine's a pina colada) reminiscing about that sojourn we once took. Crazy story, guys, We'll get around to telling you about it at some point. Lets just say thats the last time I dress up as Noel Coward whilst visiting Canada. In any case I just thought you'd all like to share my thoughts. Thanks for listening. -- Sir Mhaille Icons-flag-gb.png (talk to me)

You really want that NotM award, don't you, Mhaille. Schamschi, 15:44, August 1, 2011 (UTC)

Im with cookie monster

His argument was sound and there is no way to disagree with him. Doing anything and/or whatever it takes to get your desired object is the standard by which any person should uphold themselves. I vote for cookie monster! --ShabiDOO 00:17, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

  1. That is the whole main point. No drama or anything.

I still don't care

...I think that pwn goes for you..! A (Ruins) 14:00, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

The fact that you bothered posting your claim of apathy a second time inadvertently proves that you do care. Sir SockySexy girls.jpg Mermaid with dolphin.jpg Tired Marilyn Monroe.jpg (talk) (stalk)Magnemite.gif Icons-flag-be.png GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 16:19, 4 August 2011

I dont care more than any of you dont care

I dont care so much...that I dont even think its necesary to finish this sentence. I wont even put a period or any other punctuation at the end of this sentence!.,? Infact, my plan is not not write enough sentences to finish a paragraph.

That is how much I dont care. I am so...like...totally not caring that I dont even feel like writing anything. This whole Czar stuff is so lame. Its like...totally about power and control and stuff. Power is like lame. So is control, I would also say that that blows. And stuff, stuff is also lame and also blows big time.

What a stupid topic. I like totally dont care at all, and more than all of you for sure. So...what ever guys, this blows the big lame suck! --ShabiDOO 21:30, August 4, 2011 (UTC)
