We in the cabal (there is no cabal) don't mind a little unannounced tweaking on a random page here or there. That's what a wiki does, after all. But some edits are more significant than others. So be timid in making certain changes.

To be more precise, tell us what you're planning to do in the Village Dump before doing something major (such as changing templates, menu pages, reskins, pretty much anything that will affect the uncyclopedia experience of a substantial portion of the user population). It's not that we don't trust you. It's just easier if you talk to us first so we can participate in your ideas. Collaboration works better than chaos, and changes that have a heavy impact are better discussed than simply done.

So remember, before you do anything, think to yourself: "will this edit more likely then not enter the uncyclopedia consciousness of substantially more people than myself and the admins reviewing the 'recent changes' page? If so, take it to the dump first. Who knows, maybe the idea will get even better than you thought it would be if you talk before taking action! You could say that having the courage to include others in your creative process is bolder than just making an edit out of the blue . . .
