Few more things:

1. http://sonichu.com/cwcki/Simonla_Rosechu#Simonla_as_the_Lynchpin
Do we need a long part about how Chris views reality and anything else in the Simonla Rosechu article? I find it unnecessary as it's just about an Electric Hedgehog Pokemon which is inspired by Evan.

2. http://cwckiforums.com/threads/sonichu-drawing-for-sale.3785/page-126#post-245253

Which leads to this. Opinions?

I agree with the section on Simonla, it's half the page and it's based on speculation, it needs to be cut down and clearly explained it's one of many speculations about why Chris stopped Sonichu, or be outright removed.

I de-A-Logged the "Chris and Race" and "Niggo" articles some.
 
There's a user account under the Wallflower's real name. Their userpage is a link to the Wallflower's Facebook. I'd delete it myself but I guess only mods/sysops can delete users...

Someone please de-Alog the Sonichu Balls article: http://sonichu.com/cwcki/Sonichu_Balls
Basically, some editor thinks "Sonichu Ball Crystals" is "more gay" but we all know that nothing is gayer than "Sonichu Balls". In addition, the first sentence in the Powers section is unnecessary because we know that the Sonichu Balls are not Dragon Balls so there's no reason to call Chris a dumbass for not following the conventions of the Dragon Balls.

Thanks. Removed it. Let me know if there's any other references.

I think waterman article could be deleted. He's always been irrelevant and recently has been ousted from Chris's fb.

There are some requests for this but there are some requests against this too. He could be a random boring user who posting irrelevant stuff on Chris's wall. However, he was still notable for his friendship with Chris.

Or perhaps we should have an article about the minor figures in Chris's life, add William in it, and delete the William article.

Yeah a minor characters page would be fine. He would totally fit the criteria as the only real thing he contributed was Chris sperging about his hair.

I think it's okay to poke fun at Ruckersville, but I'd agree some parts in that article are trying too hard to push the point, detracting from the truth that is funny on it's own, without any real need to highlight it. For example :

http://www.sonichu.com/cwcki/Ruckersville said:
The geography of Ruckersville is rather plain, composed mainly of fields, light forest, and small ugly housing developments extending from the larger town of Charlottesville. Even the terrain is boring.

Is slightly unnecessary, don't you think ? The gist of the boringness of the town is already readily apparent from the first couple of words, as in "The geography of Ruckersville is rather plain", hence repeating in the end that it's boring is redundant and pushing the comedy value of the observation a little far.

The current satellite images are copyrighted 2012 to the Commonwealth of Virginia, indicating that until this year even Virginia didn't give a fuck about its shitty backwater 'burbs.

Again, a mild complaint, but the profanity here kind of sticks out as unnecessary, especially how Ruckersville is called a "Redneck shithole" already twice in that article. The first instance of calling Ruckersville a "redneck shithole" works in my opinion, because it's contrasting the advertorial brochure text with the terrifying reality that it's a ghost town with no landmarks or anything to do.
 
How exactly are you supposed to improve a site that documents a retard who shits his pants?

Restructured to sound funnier? To make more sense? To sound significantly less A-loggy (or not at all) but still subtle enough to be funny?

I agree that some of the content is A-Loggy and unfunny but I generally think if you're going to say 'be funnier' or 'write better' you need to either provide an example or give actual pointers on what can be improved and how otherwise it's just unhelpful bitching. I'm not pointing the finger at you specifically, yours just happened to be the post I was replying to. The A-logging thing is fairly specific, because it's clear what you mean., that comments that are unnecessarily hateful or profane should be removed from the articles.

Just my two cents.
