Something that would be funny: edit

Currently, Main Page is in mainspace because no suitable article topic exists with the name "Main Page". If we could get something with WP:COMMONNAME "Main Page" it is possible Main Page would be moved. Just a thought I had. Sungodtemple (talk) 01:07, 30 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Requested Article: No angry mastodons climbing the Reichstag dressed as Spider-man edit

User template: WP:BEANS edit

basically the red button which is in WP:BEANS.

{{User:Wesoree/beans}} which produces this red button:

 Uh-huh
Do NOT click on the red button.

It´s perfect for any userpage, even used on mine too. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 12:41, 9 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ironic criticism of Wikipedia, something for the archives? edit

Thought this was rather funny. One Wikipedian also sent me a thank-you note for it. Is there a place where we archive funny self-defeating criticism of Wikipedia? I'd like to give others a laugh. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 18:44, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Idea for new page edit

Hi, I think it would be fun to set up a page called Wikipedia:Sandbox Highlights that's basically like BJAODN but for the Sandbox, cataloging all the weird, wild and wacky stuff added there over time. Do I have to get permission to create it or can I just do it? (I'm not a Department of Fun member but I might be soon.) TypoEater (talk) 16:15, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Approved. Go ahead, make the page! - Master of Hedgehogs (converse) (hate that hedgehog!) 23:48, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
