Help talk:A New Format for Fanon Character Specials

Hi there,

I'm Agent Johnson, one of the less known users. Now I am here to write about the Fanon Character Specials. Ok, they are an excellent idea and I like the idea of writing about holidays while involving our awesome Fanon Characters. However now they're a bit dry now; I mean, they're a bit repetitive now. In the Halloween Specials, it's pretty much the same; something scary happens, all the Fanon Characters and do something about it and that's the end of it.

I'd also like to offer criticism on several parodies, namely Star Penguins. When I look at it, all I see is copy the synopsis on Wikipedia and change words. I'm sorry but this is a Fanon Wiki and it's about creativity; write an UQA, not a stub.

This is the first prequel to the original trilogy. As it starts, young Obi Wan Penobi and his Jedee Master, ?-Gon, a ponderer, are ambassadors to the Commerce Union, a battle-guin making company. Unfortunately, the Union tries to give them overdoses of laughing gas, but they escape. The Union deploys droid ships to the peaceful planet of Shaboo, where they destroy swamps and pollute the waters. The Queen of Shaboo, Queen Gahmidala escapes the Union with the help of the Jedee. Unfortunately, Gahmidala's space cruiser is damaged, and it crash-lands on the sand planet of Snowtooine where they meet Anikin Penguinwalker, a slave Chick. Anikin races in a dangerous race, called a Padrace, and wins the Queen a million coins. They rebuild the space cruiser and return to Shaboo. Meanwhile, the Commerce Union has taken over the planet, and have brought a friend, Darth Mole, an evil lord of the Sift. The Jedee battle Darth Mole, Queen Gahmidala and her officers take back Shaboo and Anikin destroys the Commerce Union control ship, deactivating all the battle-guin. Dark Mole paralyzes ?-Gon, but Obi Wan kicks Mole into a ventilator shaft. ?-Gon can never speak or walk again. Just before ?-Gon loses control of his mouth, he tells Obi Wan to train Anikin, for he is the chosen one.

If you've watched the Fourth Star Wars film (for some reason it's called Episode 1), you'll notice that they've just changed a few words make it a bit like we're some parody Wiki addicted to Penguins. If you haven't watched it, you'll get bored of it quickly. It has since been adopted by EDFan but he has appeared to forgotten about it.

Here's something a bit more better. It's an extract from Lord of the Onion Rings and I personally find it much better.

It was the eve of Willbo's Luggage's birthday, which lies on September 23rd. In turn, it was also his younger cousin and adopted heir's Willdo Luggage's birthday as well.

"Hey hoy Willdo!" Willbo said in delight. "Hullo cousin Willbo." said Willdo. (Willdo was the quieter of the two) "Can you believe it?! I am going to be eleventy-one tomorrow! And you my friend are going to be thirty-three! A coming of age!" You see, Willbo and Willdo were Pobbits. As such, their ages differ from yours and mine. What is a Pobbit you say? Well, they are interesting little creatures, closely related to the penguin. They are quite smaller than you and I; they also have hair on their flippers, and also, a common feature, curly hair on the top their heads. Pobbits like to read and are interested in literature, and most cannot swim; Such as Willbo cannot swim, Willdo can. After speaking to each other for a while, Willbo sent Willdo off to enjoy himself. Willbo then sat near his fire for the remaining hours of the day. That is, until Gardalf the Grey came for a visit. "Hello Willbo. You deep in thought? It wouldn't surprise me if you were." "Yes Gardalf. In fact I am." "What is on your mind then?" asked Gardalf. "Well, I believe I do need a holiday. and I suppose it shall be long."

"Supposedly, how long and why?" "Well, I have pondered on the subject for a while now, and I believe that I shall never come back the Shmire." "And why?" "Well Gardalf, because I just need to have an adventure before I finish my life and my book." "Ah yes. I see. And your belongings?" "They shall go to my heir, Willdo."

That is Chapter 1 my friends. Now, in comparision to telling the whole story in a boring, repetitive way, the writer(s) have taken their time to write this.

The other thing I like about this is that we have allowed Fanon Characters to take part in this. Essentially we were making a Fanon Characters article, just in a different format. Everyone could enjoy this as their Fanon characters were put into the story.

So what am I proposing? I propose that rather than making a boring parody without any of our awesome Fanon Characters, why not make a Fanon Characters Special, like the Lord of the Onion Rings, about something in real-life.

tl;dr Version

We make our next Fanon Characters Story a parody of something.

Vote

Just a quick vote to see if this is a good idea. This is just a consideration, not an official project.

Yes, we should do this

Yes, Good v. Evil Needs It's Batterys Recharged.

Neutral, I haven't decided yet, I have a different idea, etc

• Uhhh, I'm a bit confused. Are you saying that we make a parody of something for our next Fanon Special? Just so you know, last year's one hasn't been completed sadly. If that's what you mean, then we can start coming up with ideas for this. Also, what do you mean by "about something in real-life"? And do you think we should complete the first ones? -- ¤ (User page!) (Man are gettin' madder cause I'm badder than a bag of 'em) 15:56, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

• I did a tl;dr version for you. And I admit, I poorly written it, I was sort of rushing it. Yes I do mean a parody of something. As for our current Fanon Characters, which one is it? Is it the Halloween one or the Lord of the Onion Ring? Or what?--Agent Johnson |  I'm Brit-ish and cause of that, I'm Liberal. 16:18, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
• It's Fanon Characters Halloween Special 2010! And I think the Christmas one hasn't been finished either, but that hasn't been imported. I'm busy with Tran$action, so should we set up a committee to help finish these old specials? Or should we just leave them how they are? -- ¤ (User page!)

• We should leave them and write something new.--Agent Johnson |  I'm Brit-ish and cause of that, I'm Liberal. 16:48, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
