View source for Wiki143:Silly Things/Outtakes of What Wikipedia is not

{{humorous essay|WP:NOTO|WP:NOT/OUT}} 

'''What Wikipedia is not – Outtakes''' is a composition that explores the Wikipedia official policy [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|What Wikipedia is not]]. As noted in that policy, "Wikipedia is an online [[encyclopedia]] and, as a means to that end, an [[meta:The Wikipedia Community|online community]] of individuals interested in building a high-quality encyclopedia in a spirit of mutual respect. Therefore, there are certain things that Wikipedia is ''not.''" For example, Wikipedia content is not a paper encyclopedia, a dictionary, a blog or webspace provider, or a crystal ball and the Wikipedia community is not a democracy, bureaucracy, battleground, or an anarchy. Importantly, Wikipedia is not censored. However, since ''What Wikipedia is not'' was first developed beginning at least as early as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not&oldid=295848 September 24, 2001], a number of proposed additions never made it in. This essay looks at portions of the policy that were removed in the editing process and not included in [[Karl Marx|the]] work's final, publicly released version. In addition, it looks at portions of the policy that may have been removed had they been added in the editing process, but nonetheless have relevance to the policy.

Note: Some really bad jokes are now at [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not/BJAODN]].

==Wikipedia is not a cabal==

Wikipedia is only ''run'' by [[WP:CABAL|a cabal]]. Of thousands. But don't worry{{snd}}you, too, can join the cabal by making a history of constructive, high-quality edits. That, and learn the secret password. (It's "[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ThePasswordIsAlwaysSwordfish Swordfish].")

:There Is No Cabal (TINC). We discussed this at the last Cabal meeting, and everyone agreed that There Is No Cabal. An announcement was made in ''Cabalist: The Official Newsletter of The Cabal'' making it clear that There Is No Cabal. The words "There Is No Cabal" are in ten-foot letters on the side of the 42-story International Cabal Headquarters, and an announcement that There Is No Cabal is shown at the start of every program on The Cabal Network. If that doesn't convince people that There Is No Cabal, I don't know what will. --[[User:Guy Macon|Guy Macon]] ([[User talk:Guy Macon|talk]]) 09:53, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

==Wikipedia is not a place to create secret hidden messages==

<!--It's not you know. ?-->
By embedding them in blocks of otherwise innocuous text.<!--Yes it is! And so can you!--> Did I just give [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not/Outtakes&action=edit&section=23 something] away?

==Wikipedia is not a place to dump large quantities of material copied from "My Documents"==

Except for here:

The book ''Animal Farm'' is, clearly, a fictional story. However, this allegory's connection to the early days of Communist Russia is all too true. The leading pigs of the Farm take control, not only of the establishment, but also of the residents. They are able to mislead the all-too-ignorant populace into thinking whatever they do is a good thing for all. The crookedness of Animal Farm's government is shown from the very start, and comes through to the end, culminating in a slogan that was all too true when the real-life correlation to this story happened not so long ago.<br>
The first flavor I would like to see is sweet onion. I like raw onions and I know that other people do too. In addition, the onion jelly bean would mix well with some of your existing jelly bean flavors. Another flavor that I thought would be exciting and popular is the egg flavored jelly bean. Many people I know eat eggs at all times of the day and so I think it would be a popular choice. Last, but not least, is the broccoli jelly bean. I understand that broccoli jelly beans might not sound very popular at first, but you could make them be a healthy snack to eat. If they were healthy, parents could get their kids to eat broccoli in a rather sweet way.<br>
In the dining room, many pesky monsters roam, namely Werewolves and Headless Specters. However, they are no match for the mighty football helmet! Some of the collapsing floor tiles have snack boxes hidden directly under them. Jump quickly and take the risk of falling to grab these delicious packets of tastiness. Sometimes, the menacing lit fireplace may breathe fire, guarding a snack box. Time your jump carefully and snag it without being roasted. If you head-smash some webs against the wall, it will take you into a closet with some snacks and sandwiches in it. Although you might always have a full five dog-tags in health, it is a helpful oasis. (It's also fun to stand in the right place and get the view from the inside of a rotating sandwich!)

==Wikipedia is not a place to find [[WP:TRUTH|The Truth]]==

The Truth is [[The X-Files|out there]] ... wait, sorry, I mean [[World|out there]]. Really. I mean it. Turn off the computer and go outside now. You have had enough for one day.

==Wikipedia is not a place to leave out punctuation==



It gets really confusing if you leave out punctuation marks, please use them it makes long sentences easier to read and makes it clear exactly what you are on about.

==Wikipedia is not a place to post half-finished sentences==

[[Wikipedia:Stub|Half-finished articles]] and Candlejack are fine, but please finish your sentences!
:Poor thing – only did it for the lulz.

==Wikipedia is not a place to invent new spelling and grammar==

It hinders communication if we don't use the same spelling or grammar. Yes, you can decide to use non-standard fleemishes and the reader can still gloork the meaning from the context, but there ix a limit; If too many ot the vleeps are changed, it becomes harder and qixer to fllf what the wethcz is blorping, and evenually izs is bkb longer possible to ghilred frok at wifx.

Granted, we have [[Wikipedia:Editcountitis|edit counts]] for levels (but not to the extent of [[Everything 2]]); edit distribution and other stats; administrators, arbitrators, vandals, and so on for classes; sockpuppets for using "summons" on a hacked character; over 1.3 million players; over 1,130,000 locations (including 900+ Featured towns and cities), pubs (talk pages); quest rewards (barnstars); boss battles ([[WP:FAC|FAC]]); class change trials ([[WP:RFA|RFA]]), and battle arenas ([[WP:AIV|AIV]]).

==Wikipedia is notable, but do not feel special for editing a notable website==

you are not [[It's Not You|special]] even if you are making changes to a notable website

==Wikipedia is not for spreading false information==

since wikipedia is an encyclopedia, people are able to spread false information pretty quickly, and then the new generation of wikipedians would definitely not become stupid{{sarcasm}} and would totally be able to see the truth about it all,{{sarcasm}} this is why vandalism is totally allowed [[Wikipedia:Go ahead, vandalize|so do it]]{{sarcasm}}

==WIKIPEDIA IS NOT ALL CAPS==

I THINK THIS CAN GET THE POINT ACROSS JUST FINE, BUT IF YOU SERIOUSLY NEED MORE TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT, IMAGINE TO YOURSELF "WOULD YOUR MOM WANT TO READ AN ENCYCLOPEDIA IN [[All caps|ALL CAPS]]"?

===Wikipedia is not [[GoDaddy]]===

In an expansion of the idea "[[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a blog, web hosting service, social networking service, or memorial site|Wikipedia is not a webspace provider]]"{{nbsp}}...

*It should not be used as a personal website or a personal blog, not even as a blog of your recent projects on Wikipedia.
*It cannot register your domain names for 99¢ for the first year.
*It is not-for-profit, so it does not require commercials where famous women like [[Stacy Keibler]] and [[Danica Patrick]] tease baring their breasts or [[beaver]]s. (Though it would probably help come donation drive time.)
*It does not provide a wide array of automatically-installed web applications.

Therefore, Wikipedia is not GoDaddy.

== Wikipedia is not an [[Chat GPT|AI]] ==
Wikipedia is not an AI (artificial intelligence) because it is a collaborative online encyclopedia that allows users to create and edit articles. Although Wikipedia uses some AI techniques to assist with tasks such as spam filtering and article categorization, it is primarily a human-driven platform.

While Wikipedia may use some automated processes to detect and revert vandalism or to suggest potential changes to articles, these processes are not sophisticated enough to qualify as AI. Rather, they are based on rules and algorithms that are designed to support the community of human editors who contribute to the site.

In contrast, AI refers to systems that are capable of learning from data and making decisions or predictions based on that learning. These systems are typically designed to perform specific tasks or solve specific problems, and they use a range of techniques such as machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision to achieve their goals.

In summary, while Wikipedia may use some AI techniques to assist with certain tasks, it is primarily a human-driven platform and does not qualify as an AI.

Wikipedia is not [[Midjourney]] or [[Microsoft Copilot]] either, so don't ask Wikipedia to generate a picture of a girl in a [[Pretty in Pink|{{color|hotpink|pretty pink dress}}]] playing the drums and her handsome boyfriend dressed in black with a pink suit and tie playing the acoustic guitar.

== Wikipedia is not [[Cartoon Network]] ==
Because otherwise the only page that would exist on Wikipedia would be [[Teen Titans Go!]]

== Wikipedia is not [[Nickelodeon]] ==
Because otherwise the only page in this site would be [[SpongeBob SquarePants]].

== Wikipedia is not what Wikipedia is ==

==Wikipedia is not a place for [[Wikipedia:Gravedancing|gravedancing]]==
Respect editors who are deceased, retired, or even if they are blocked or banned for vandalism, disruptive editing, sockpuppetry, or any other reason. Don't dance on people's graves, even if you hear your best friend in the [[Pretty in Pink|{{color|hotpink|pretty pink dress}}]] playing the drums. She's not a gravedancer, either. She would never say "good riddance" to those types of users. She probably shouldn't be playing the drums in the cemetery anyways, because that would attract people who would want to dance on people's graves. She should take her drum set somewhere else. You can dance to her music, just not in the cemetery.

==Wikipedia is not [[Project Graduation]]==
If you think Wikipedia is a place to step into the universe where your dreams take place and go all out and have fun all night long and feeling as if you're "dreaming" even though it's all happening in real life just like at your [[Project Graduation]] party you had when you graduated from high school back in May 2011, chances are you may be living on an avenue of false hope.
