[edit]Pages such as this may well be fully in keeping with your stated aim of making up "stupid memes and posts them online." But Wikipedia is very much not the place to do it. And making the random post with which to appear sensible will work equally poorly. I look forward to your future positive contributions on account of this situation :) cheers! — fortunavelut luna 14:03, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
Can I add it to my userpage? --NostalgicColorBird (talk) 14:07, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
- No. See below. — fortunavelut luna 14:52, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
Your "worst page on Wikipedia" page
[edit]I took down the page as it's clearly not what Wikipedia is for. If you're looking to use Wikipedia to create memes and play around, I'd suggest you find another place to do so, because this can be seen as disruption, and could lead to your account being blocked.
