Talk:The Left Wing Madness

From Wikiality

[edit] Suggestions

1. too inside-jokey: so explain the background a bit more, but not so much. Just explain enough so that a reader can get enough info from the one page, without having to rely on other pages. You can lose a reader if they have to spend too much time going back and forth between pages (footnotes are better, but be careful with those, too).
2. a little too random: just a little. There is the presumption that everyone knows about this alleged "Uprising". Really? So, if I (a reader) doesn't get it (or it isn't explained) there is something wrong with me (the reader)? That kind of writing insults the reader. It can be fixed by explaining just enough (same as above). You can lose when you insult their reading comprehension.
3. Too Canadian: technically this is enough to get everyone who had anything to do with the page (including everyone who read it) banned from all internets tubes (since they belong to America). But, since Stephen is helping the Canadians, it will be allowed a small tube, but only if the problem is mitigated.
   1. Do not assume your readers "get" the Canadian jokes. There have been people from as far away as Australia reading and posting on this site, so make sure you can get your "Canadian" point of view across. Let us know what Canada was like before Stephen rescued you.
   2. Keep the Canadian-ness by exaggerating your characteristics (what are they by the way?) If not exaggeration, use some other "comical" device, but let us know what makes you guys Canadian. The world really doesn't know unless you tell us.

Okay, that's enough.--WatchTVEatDonutDrinkBeer 04:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
