[edit] Proposed addition

What about "RATIONALWIKI is RUN by the GLOBALISTS AND SHEEPLE"? From a Facebook message from one James B. Russel to Alex Jones.--ZooGuard (talk) 08:39, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Thumbs up. Scarlet A.pngDon't click here 12:01, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Added at weighting 1, up if you like - David Gerard (talk) 12:18, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
I laughed so hard when I realized that was an ACTUAL quote. arguably we should change the external link part of it to look more like an external link. At first I was like is there a citation for this, or did someone make it up. Also at first I didn't realize it was a joke, though I really really should of the link and exceperpt from rational wiki he uses makes it kind of obvious. --NonPerson (talk) 00:55, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Old proposed ones that I like

  • "Equipping RationalWiki adds +10 to Intelligence."
  • "Our ancestors rode out the flood on a floating mat of vegetation - what's your excuse?"
  • "Going over to RW is like watching your kid play happily in the toilet after someone used it and forgot to flush." -- Karajou

Whatcha think? FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 00:40, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

The first one is good though limiting to those who get the reference, the second... i dont get it. The third one isn't that great and mentions CP in any context, limiting its effectiveness.--Miekal 01:39, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

[edit] New slogan ideas

  1. A front for rationalist indoctrination!
  2. Basically what a slightly left of centre atheist needs to win an internet debate!
  3. Chock-full of right-wing conspiracy theories, woo, pesudoscience, and anti-science!
  4. A sentient ball composed of smugness and snark!

From stuff I've seen about us on the tubes. FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 05:49, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Nitpicking

The current slogan, "The wiki that can be expressed as the ratio of two IntegerWikis!" is actually not correct if the denominator is the Zero Wiki! Bongolian (talk) 08:22, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

fixed FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 12:18, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
The original statement was actually more accurate. You can express any rational number as the ratio of two integers, we never claimed that we would use every integer. As written now though, it excludes the case where the rational number is zero. --TiaC (talk) 12:29, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Slogans I hate

All of these are reaaallly boring. The only one I kinda like is "The truth is not a popularity contest", because it could be turned into "The truth is not a popularity contest -- it's a [INSERT ALTERNATE EVENT]". Can these die pls? FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 17:04, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Anyone who advocates less goat must be a deep cover Conservapedian! BURN THEM! --Ymir (talk) 17:23, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
Whats wrong with "Separating the sheep from the goats since 2007. ".--Miekal 18:49, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
It's vague and boring. FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 18:53, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
I'm sure glad we have somebody around here to objectively quantify humor for us. --Inquisitor (talk) 18:56, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
What's vague about it? It tells us when RW was founded (2007), and tells something about our stance sorta.--Miekal 18:58, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
FuzzyCatPotato is obviously an evil minion of the Long-eared Jerboa if he wants less Goat. SophieWilderModerator 19:04, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
The FCP is obviously extremely ungoat. First he wanted to get rid of "Recipe" and now the wholesale destruction of the extremely unfunny slogans! Scream!! (talk) 19:45, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
I might be ungoat. But am I doubleplusungoat? FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 21:14, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Year of the Goat

"Happy Year of the Goat (and sheep)!" (starting February 19, 2015) Bongolian (talk) 07:12, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

HAIL THE YEAR OF THE GOAT
DOWN WITH THE YEAR OF THE SHEEP

[edit] Removed slogans

The following slogans were recently removed:

  1. Bible spoiler! Jesus dies!
    (But not really.)
  2. Congratulations! You have reached the end of teh Internetz!
  3. More than just another pretty wiki -- it's a very pretty wiki!
  4. The Only Site That Matters!
    Hopefully.
  5. Wi kan haz syt codid bai katz!
  6. Equipping RationalWiki adds +10 to Intelligence.
  7. A rationalist indoctrination organization!
  8. The other good book!
  9. World. Talk. Poop. Beer.
  10. Who you gonna call? GOATBUSTERS!
  11. Grandstanding its own cleverness!

I would like to re-add #3, #6, #9, and #10. The others are pretty meh. FU22YC47P07470 (talk/stalk) 22:32, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

I would not be in favour of adding them back. There could be something to be said for #3 and #10, but even that would be a fairly long stretch. - Grant (talk) 22:35, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
