Ok. It's labelling time. I know this is a bit sweeping-generalising but wouldn't be nice if we had an established system to describle users' points of views on Uncyclopedia in general and what they expect of it? What I mean by "an established system" is something like this:

Unleft

Uncenter -left

Uncenter

Uncenter -right

Unright

Unleft - the reformists

“Innovation is revolution.”

~ Oscar Wilde on Unleft

Unleft is the liberal wing of Uncyclopedia. It holds a radical view of innovation (that is, revolution) and advocates that the continual in-take of new users and new ideas is the only way to the wiki's survival. Its memebers are generally set to despise any joke idea that seems to have been used in one or more existing articles, push "a higher standard of Uncyc humor" and vote against articles in VFH regardless of how reputed the respective authors are and how many users have voiced their opposing point of view.

Uncenter - the unaligned

“Hahaha - that's funny!”

~ Oscar Wilde on Uncenter

Uncenter is the fence-rider region of our UnPolitical Spectrum. There, the definition of the word "funny" varies as individual memeber undergoes mood swings and weather changes. Although some of its members may display tendencies of supporting either the Unleft or the Unright (making them members of the Uncenter-left or the Uncenter-right), they are generally reluctant to consider Uncyclopedia as a website and would rather view it as a random collection of individual works.

(Note: members of this category are not necessarily proponents of random humor.)

Unright - the nationalists

“Uncyclopedia is the best!”

~ Oscar Wilde on Unleft

Unright represents the conservatives of our Uncyclopedian population. Unlike the radical Unleft or the random Uncenter, the Unright is always in search for "the one style of humor that belongs to Uncyc". This pursuit of "One Uncyclopedian Culture" is often signified by the exercise of measuring new articles against those in the Featured Articles archive, the unquestioned faith in NOTM/WOTM/UOTM and the fanatical bashing of GOTM.

I think this is cool

Your reason(s)

↓

• Because I was the one who came up with this stupid idea. -- The Colonel (talk) 19:40, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Because I, too, am a non-conformist. I see politics in everything, and came up with a similar idea about three months ago. No, really. Anyway, I figured everyone would hate the idea, and I'm right. I'M A GENIUS! Er, that is to say, sorry everyone hates your idea...--<<>> 15:08, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

• I'd certainly be a leftist, at least in theory, although I think left should be blue and right should be red, so that we can conform to the U.S. election maps.—Sir Mandaliet ♠ CUN PS VFH GN (talk) 02:31, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

better name idea

I thought of calling something like this "UnViews" (like UnNews) a while ago --Nerd42Talk 17:12, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

I might be stupid but ... what side am I on ? I am kinda leaning towards UnRight I think ... but maybe that's because I am on the real right politically. But UnPolitically ... maybe I AM THE THIRD PARTY!! - that must be why I never win! :) --Nerd42Talk 17:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Third party? Yeah, right... -- The Colonel (talk) 10:12, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
