Dawg@gecko ~ $ man uncyclopedia
	uncyclopedia(1) uncyclopedia(1)
	
	
	
	NAME
	 uncyclopedia - a superior alternative to those pieces of shit at Wikipedia
	
	SYNOPSIS
	 uncyclopedia [-abort|-retry|-ignore] [-search] [-edit] [-discuss]
	 [-history] [-move] [-watch] [-blank] [-vandalize] [-lang:code] [-help]
	 [-admin:[delete|block=user|rollback|protect]] [-random] [article]
	
	 su -c "pkill uncyclopedia"
	
	 use "uncyclopedia -help" to display a complete list of current options.
	
	DESCRIPTION
	 Uncyclopedia is a Wiki-based encyclopedia, the basis for the design of
	 another popular, but WAY less complete online encyclopedia called
	 "Wikipedia", in the same way that Microsoft's pesky .chm (HTML Help)
	 files are an inferior alternative to man(1).
	
	 Uncyclopedia can be used to access information on all platforms that
	 can interpret HTML into a human-readable format. Current versions of
	 Uncyclopedia run on Unix, VMS, Windows 95/NT, Windows CE, BeOS, 386DOS,
	 OS/2 EMX, MacOS 2, MacOS Y, Amiga, Commodore 64, Dynix, Minix, GNU
	 Hurd, Etch-A-Sketch and certain versions of Abacus.
	
	OPTIONS
	 At startup, Uncyclopedia will load the article specified on the
	 command line. For help with locating an article, press "?" or "H"
	 while running Uncyclopedia.
	
	 Uncyclopedia will prompt you to create a new article if the article
	 name you provide does not yet exist. This feature is excellent for
	 quickly creating pages about your enemies and in-jokes that only your
	 closest imaginary friends know.
	
	 Uncyclopedia provides many command-line options. Some require special
	 privileges, others can be used by anyone at any time. These are noted
	 in the reference below.
	
	 -search
	 If this argument is used, Uncyclopedia will find the article
	 name supplied within any article. This feature is a total waste
	 of time, since Uncyclopedia can handle articles under every
	 potential misspelling of every word without difficulty.
	
	 -edit Edit an existing article. This provides an interface for
	 changing all aspects of the article, from adding gibberish
	 through removing content.
	
	 -discuss
	 Deprecated command is only used by administrators. Shows
	 commentary about the named article regarding various revisions
	 and reasons for these revisions.
	
	 -history
	 Shows a list of people who have modified the article and what
	 they modified within the article. Only administrators tend to
	 use this option, since old versions are never as good as the one
	 you just amended with "OMG MY PENIS IS SO BIG".
	
	 -move Quickest and easiest way to create useful redirects from random
	 articles to other random articles in Uncyclopedia. Regular use
	 of this parameter ensures that nobody will ever find what
	 they're looking for where they expect to find it.
	 Administrators love this one.
	
	 -watch Keep track of articles you have seen in the past or written.
	 Proper use ensures nobody else modifies your articles, possibly
	 changing "OMG MY PENIS IS SO BIG" to "OMG I'M A RETARD" or an
	 inferior version of the article.
	
	 -blank Blank an article and remove any incorrect information it might
	 contain. Use this parameter regularly on articles about your
	 country of origin, favorite politicians, video games, and other
	 extremely important articles.
	
	 -vandalize
	 If this parameter is used, Uncyclopedia will give you an
	 interface that allows the quick modification of existing text to
	 make it completely incomprehensible and remove any past,
	 present, or future inaccuracies.
	
	 -random
	 Retrieve a random Zork page.
	
	 -lang:code
	 Use this to specify your preferred language for reading and
	 editing Uncyclopedia. Defaults to en.
	
	 -help 
	 Display quick help with common commands.
	
	 -admin:[option]
	 Controls Uncyclopedia articles and users based on the option
	 provided.
	
	 delete use to remove articles that a user spent hours of hard
	 work on to get a message on your talk page so you feel
	 important.
	
	 block=user this will cause most users to join the IRC channel
	 within 30–90 seconds where they will bitch and moan about how
	 unfair the admin was or how it was their 'friend' that changed
	 the article so they don't deserve it.
	
	 rollback removes the last piece of important information,
	 thought-provoking commentary, or otherwise brilliant prose from
	 the specified article.
	
	 protect keeps non-administrators from making Uncyclopedia
	 articles better.
	
	ENVIRONMENT
	 In addition to various "standard" environment variables such as NPOV,
	 Uncyclopedia supports the following unique capabilities:
	
	 HTBFANJS Directs you to a resource about writing and editing
	 Uncyclopedia articles.
	
	 HELP Contains information about a Beatles Album. Why you would
	 ever want to read it is beyond the scope of this man(1) page.
	
	 VILLAGE_DUMP
	 A powerful tool for making your voice heard by those totally
	 heartless members of the oligarchy.
	
	 VFH Method by which you can select articles for the Uncyclopedia
	 Main_Page.
	
	 VFP Method by which you can select pictures to be placed on the
	 Uncyclopedia Main_Page.
	
	 VFD A location where you list all the best articles in
	 Uncyclopedia to ensure the admins know to delete them.
	
	 QVFD A location where you list all the absolute best articles in
	 Uncyclopedia because you want to get the admins to respond to
	 your opinion of the article more quickly than the weeks to
	 months it takes with the VFD method due to excessive red
	 tape.
	
	MAN PAGES
	 man mount - don't tell me there's nothing suspicious about that.
	
	 man cat - the end result of some process.
	
	 man kill - what you will do with me, following the statements above.
	
	FILES
	 /wiki/Main_Page
	 Is a quick starting point for Uncyclopedia. This is the default
	 article shown if none is selected on the command line.
