Anyways, this period up till now is a milestone for UnMeta's activity: new Brazilian Desciclopedia spin-offs have been created, discussions about User:Kohl have been revived and closed down, the importance of UnMeta itself has grown, Wikia issues have been debated, a bunch of bugs have been reported, a load off server Internal w00t the fl00p ERRORZ have been endured... Real' good memories (that was not ironically meant :p)...

2008[edit]

As you all can see:

(to some as a great shock, i'm sure) I have deleted over and about a 150 pages that where mostly articles that did not belong here but on the uncyclopedia. All this was done to give new life to this unmeta site for it's goal of an interwiki meetingpoint and headquarters for all the international and multilanguaged wiki's. The goal of this meta is (imho) to bond all te languages in a big family so that we oparate more as a whole like lets say our lame ass rip off sister Wikipedia (may Sophia destroy them all).

This is what the experts say:

The fundamentals were badly shaken when Uncyc left, whichleft the place virtually uninhabitable. So their recommendations were as follows: Take away the parts of the building that have no support. It is putting the rest in danger and prevents future development. Then put new buildings on the open spaces and designate them as Embassies.

As the goal of UnMeta is taking over the world by sheer stupidity, it could become a portal for and to the different ***pedias, who will have a place to build their embassies and a place for Intercyclopedian communication. Every ***pedia will be invited to do so and send their ambassador(s) to ~~party~~ ~~show off~~ represent their homesite and to further international relations and the exchange of ~~information~~ hilarious absurdities.
