My condolences and thoughts are with anybody on the wiki who might have been affected by the shooting. We here in Texas feel your pain.
Chat .css suggestion (+join polandvision)
First things first.
GO JOIN POLANDVISION IF IT IS NOT YET JUNE 24TH 2016, IT'S A HIGHLIGHTED THREAD, YOU CAN'T MISS IT, IT'S IN THE BELL THING
Anyway.... As you know, we recently overhauled the .css in our chat with icons and ranks (except rollback, they might still be a bit pissy about that). Me and Collisions proposed that for each win, second place, or 3rd place someone gets in Polandvision, they get a little medal in the chat. This would also encourage participation in Polandvision, and creation of original comics! I made a rough mockup of it:
EDIT: I made pixel medals for the chat that we would use if this was added.
Admin
I saw a thing on the front page the other day saying they need North American admins? What are the necessary qualifictions to become an admin?
Transliteration of English
Today we're going to be transliterating English!
English is already in Latin.
I never specified which alphabet.
- sigh* Which one is it?
Cyrillic!
Since Cyrillic is entirely phonetic, we're going to do this phonetically. I'm not going to do the IPA; I can't be shat to copy and paste that much.
We're going to pretend that the "yX" letters are long vowels.
thats not how cyrillic works
palm > я
lot > о
trap > а
price > ай
mouth > aў
dress > е
pay > ей
kit > и

Date for a Story Plot?
Hey Folks! This is Syttu here
I am creating a story where the PB Wikia will be in the real life a Giant libraly with enyclopedias showing many information about the Polandball meme, which in the story will be a traditional representation of countries, like the meme, but outside internet. The well know members (including me) of this community will now make staff of the PB Libraly, and they, instead of being teenagers and pre-teenagers, they will be grown up adults, will some will mantain some of their personalities, and they will be the main characters (some will be secondary tho)
And i was thinking in which date would serve for my
story plot, so i made a random list of dates, with dates going from
01/01/1936 to 31/12/2023 with 25 results, an…
Transliteration of arabic

Being a Hongkonger, I understand the flaws of the current Chief Executive election system.
First, there are only 1200 nominators, and they are also the voters. Second, they are 離地 (above the ground, which means "lack representativeness"). Third, they can control which nominee to be removed during the nomination.
In the current system, a person is nominated by collecting 120 nomination votes. In the new system (which is rejected by accident), 600 nomination votes are required. That's why Hongkongers want 真普選(Real universal suffrage / Real election).
Similarly, and unfortunately, this wiki has these flaws mentioned.
First, nominees are nominated by admins instead of all users.
Second, the one with second most votes are granted secondary rights. It's …
Fancy Chat CSS!
Okay. So Bain, Mosh, and I have made some fancy upgrades to the styling of the chat room! We've added icons, and clearly indicated ranks to all the staff. (Except rollback.) It's rather colourful!

Last day on the wikia.
Some of you may not have known but this is my last day online the wiki. I have learned many things and made the instagram community and the wikia community of polandball equal. Many of these things will help our community stay safe and unified. I am sorry I have to leave wikia but I will lose the only device that could use wikia will be gone at 1:10 PM EST time. I have made friends , help people that just joined wikia and help admins. If one day I do come back I will help wikia more but for now I have to say goodbye.
Request me a profile pic.Everyday will have new one
Request me a profile pic.And yes you can't request me something related to Armenia.
Planetball Template redesign
Hello!
I've redesigned the planetball template (Template:Infobox_planetball) because it was a mess and it doesn't fit planets at all, It can be used on Terrestrial Planets, Astroids, Comets, Moons, Dwarf Planets, maybe stars and black holes and Gas Giants (without using the surface pressure and ESI). It also has collapsable social and atmospheric properties. yes, it has loads of stuff on it now, but planets are big so they have loads of stuff
Just go on the link and copy and paste the preview code onto the page. Remember to add the units of each stuff which should be metric.
I've also started a Planetball Comic Contest! Click here for more information
UPDATE: We need more planetball comics! Many pages, specifically moons need more comics about …
Polandball's emlem (Not real life Poland)
Oh well, anyone wanna make an emblem for Polandball?
My concept:
- Toilet plunger at the center
- Leafs or wheat or wings surrounds the logo
- A ribbon on the bottom: "Polska Kuli"
- Stars in the background, representing into space
Please not that you are not allowed to have:
- Thick, black or disturbing borders
- Usage of low-end software such as paint
- An opaque background
Any ideas?
Spamming and people deleting articles
For the love of god I have been noticing 8-year-olds going on here spamming things and deleting all of the article for some pages can we protect the pages once we have information done for them and no events are not happening to the country or region some of you may not of noticed it but it has been happening and I am getting sick of it.
Suggestions
1. Save spaces, use the new quote template The current template positions itself at the center and uses the big quotation marks, which waste a lot of space and affects user's visual experience.
So, I suggest using instead. Here's an example:
2. The Wiki's color scheme This wiki is in red color. It
is way too bright and doesn't represent the color of Poland.
I suggest changing the wiki's color scheme to Polish red.
Polish red (I prefer this)
Another Polish red (less bright)
Another Polish red (less bright)
Also, please update the infobox stylings. In the new version, stripes are removed and Polish red is used.
Icons
okay, this blog is for the icons i make of different users.
ones so far:
user:Croatian Nationalist
user:Baradovic
user:Man in the Moon
i'll edit and update this in future n' crap.

MAJOR PAGES CLEANUP
Ok so I noticed that many many MANY of the popular pages here
are really really shitty..
people keep editing them and either making them better or worse
and I think we should start doing something...
I PRESENT YOU:
PROJECT CLEANUP
What is this? It's going to be a huge thing where many users of the wiki contribute toghether!
Currently we should focus on the USAball page since it is the
most popular one here. Poland cannot into first :(
If you want to discuss this do it in chat or on the forums RIGHT HERE: http://polandball.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:72782
Remeber: together we make a better world!
BainTheCool (talk) 19:27, May 16, 2016 (UTC)FAQ: Why is circle tool not allowed
Circle tool is a shape tool used in MS Paint and Paint.net and pretty much every other drawing software, they make perfect circles, but why are they not allowed?
- Polandballs are squishy like people, not solid blocks
- For this reason, they can move around easier when animated
- Perfect circles look too unnatural
- They look too flat
- Polandball was intended to be drawn shitty (for this reason, I think official colours should be optional but oh well)
Because nobody was in cat

Formal Farewell to MysteryKing
No he is not dead if you are reading this.
MysteryKing was one of the Polandball Wikia's Regular User. He started contributing at this wiki since 2015. He was a busy man. He tried to make a game for Polandball but failed 3 times, its not that he is a failure, its just the bugs that always occur in his PC.
If you might go to his User Page MysteryKing. He contributed a low amount and a low rank, but guys he did a really amazing job. He made tons of comics and animations that would wow you, also he passed the Polandball subreddit and he is TheMysteryG. He became an admin in Philippinesball Facebook and he made a whole lot of ideas to make the wiki better.
He was a very social user, if he was here by now he would be your friend and junk. He was no…
Let's talk about the Japanese language
You know, the Japanese language is considered to be an Altaic language. If Japanese has a romanized alphabet, I think it will be most suitable to have a Turkic-style alphabet.
Note that う/ウ is not pronounced as /u/. Instead, it is pronounced as /ɯᵝ/, similar to Turkish ı.
So , if romanized, should be "Yızı" (Cyrillic Јізі / Јызы) instead of "Yuzu".
Another example:
- 一部の人々は日本語がアルタイ系言語であると思います。(Some people think that the Japanese language is an Altaic language.)
Should be transliterated as:
- İçibı no hitobito wa Nihongo ga Altaike gengodearı to omoimas.
Cyrillic:
- Ићибі но хитобито уа Нихонго га Алтаике генгодеарі то омоимас.
"U" only appears in loanwords:
- Ubuntuは最も人気のあるLinuxオペレーティングシステムです。(Ubuntu is the most popular Linux operating system.)
- Ubuntu wa mot…

ADD "TBA" TO SPAM FILTER NOW
People are misusing the word "TBA" and it needs to be stopped as soon as possible.
Delay
Sorry, some guy in the SCP wikia sent a link, I opened it, and apparently it was some malware and adware. So my PC is now dead and laggy.
That means, I cannot progress with the game until 1-4 months.
Im sorry, there won't be any Polandball game till 2017 or late this year.
