I landed on this page hoping for amusement, but was sadly disappointed.

Perhaps I have misunderstood its function?
Wiki does make me laugh sometimes, mainly when it reports the lives of great wits: I think of Dennis Skinner's Queen's Speech jokes for example. But that is a rare groove.
Perhaps the most reliable resource for those landing here in search of levity would be the lamest edit wars page.
But there is surely room for more humour in wikipedia? Many a true word is spoken in jest.— Preceding unsigned comment added by LaFolleCycliste (talk • contribs) 16:45, 28 June 2012
I think the left image should be replaced with a image that is the same as the currently on the template, but with the "Humor" triangle on the bottom-right corner and the right image should be removed. What do you guys think? --TL22 (talk) 00:44, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: not moved. – bradv🍁 04:53, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Template:Humorous essay → Template:Humor essay – And change "humorous" to "humor" in its text. Whether an essay is actually humorous is a subjective judgement each reader will make. This is basically a misuse of that word, and seems to be a case of using a longer word when a shorter one will do just to sound more fancy. So, WP:CONCISE as well as WP:PRECISE. PS: I'm just lopping off the suffix, not picking the -or spelling for any kind of nationalistic reason, though it also has the benefit of being shorter. Template:Humour essay exists as a redirect already. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 19:06, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
Courtesy pinging @PorkchopGMX, as it looks like you were trying to address this at {{Humor disclosure templates}}. Cheers, {{u|Sdkb}} talk 19:33, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
