Illogicopedia is a wiki mostly dedicated to non-, semi- or entirely humorous surrealism (which might variously be considered clever, dumb, silly, or just plain nonsensical) and some satire. Humour-wise Illogicopedia is more about anything funny and the kind of random self-referential humour you find removed from Uncyclopedia; the sort of thing people will get a cheap laugh out of. Generally Illogicopedia will accept virtually anything so long as it's clean and it has some form of redeeming value. This allows a fairly lax content policy that helps make the wiki become more accessible to everyone.
- The edit button invites users to "Go insane".
- The page history contains the "Past frenzies".
- The talk pages contain "Babble".
- New messages are "Rants" and "Moans".
- The block log is renamed the "Rash log" and blocked users are said to have been "Chinese burnt".
Relatively few users actually are blocked.
Relation to Uncyclopedia and other wikis
In a nutshell: Uncyclopedia is for comedy. Illogicopedia is for nonsense and the kind of humor that makes people groan. At Uncyclopedia, nonsense gets deleted; there has been tons of great nonsensical material considered "not funny enough" for Uncyclopedia that needs a home. This as well as other suitable content may be imported.
Recently, Illogicopedia has left the old Wikia wiki for an independent one, although the Wikia website still exists (as of 13 Dec '08). There is a debate between the ?pedia community and wikia admins on shutting it down.
