New head explode page?

I think we need an Inside Joke for The Cheat's head exploding. It happens many times, if I'm not mistaking, but what would we title it as? Any ideas? -- FireBird

I agree. How 'bout "The Cheat's Head Exploding"? — InterruptorJones[[]]
Sounds good to me. Let's see what other people think. -- FireBird
Yeah, let's do it. The Cheat's Head Exploding. -- Tom 16:47, 6 Oct 2004 (MST)

Match this with the category

How does this page match with the [[Category:Inside Jokes]] page? -- spblat 24 Oct 2004

(later) Screw it. This page shouldn't exist. I have redirected it to the category of the same name. (But why doesn't the special link work in the redirect??!!?!!) Before I did all this, I did two things:

  1. Made sure every item referenced in this page had a [[Category:Inside Jokes]] tag. About 10 did not, and I corrected this.
  2. Took the nice blurbs about what makes an Inside Joke and copied them them to [[Category:Inside Jokes]].

Hello there. Judging from your edits, I'm pretty sure you know this by now, but I just want to make sure. I believe I've answered your question over in the talk page for the FAQ. Just check it out to make sure. If not, ask again. Thanks. -- Tom 19:28, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)

Yeah, I had a feeling I went too far on this one. Since the links from "Inside Jokes" are still not synchronized with the Category of the same name, what if we deleted the links from here and added "Please see the "Inside Jokes" category page for an up-to-date list of inside jokes"? Barring that, I guess we have to get this list up to date and make sure we keep it synced, ya? spblat 20:03, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)

Ah, you bring up a good point. The Inside Jokes page and the Inside Jokes Category don't match up. Come to think of it, the same probably appilies to the Rejects as well. In order to not violate HRWiki:Once And Only Once, perhaps a template with the category included would work? Let me see what I can come up with... -- Tom 20:29, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)
Yeah, so that template thing didn't work. I've added a link to the category per your suggestion. I also added a note in the code that editors should make sure they update the link to the category as well. Very good. Carry on. -- Tom 20:41, 24 Oct 2004 (MST)


Is the word "Pretendous" an inside joke yet

I just dicovered this page today and really have never heard of a wiki before. I hope I'm not destroying the page layout in some way by trying to add this to your discussion. I noticed that the word "Pretendous" hasn't made it on your inside joke list yet. It seems like it's been used multiple times (I can think of at least 2) and I was thinking about adding it (assuming I can figure out how to) Either way, keep up the good work everybody.

Also, why are there two Inside_Jokes pages? If possible I'd like to write up an entry for "pretendous" but I can't figure out how to make a new page :P Oh well - ShadowP13 (I'm doomed)
