This Tuesday, February 27, HBO Max became max and that meant that all the content of the app went to the other, the fact is that at the time of adding the ATHF episodes they accidentally added the episode "Shake like me" (episode that is currently banned from all platforms) with the name of the episode "she creature"

Why are ratings no longer necessary on this wiki?
I have an announcement to make: We will be gathering quotes for the four main characters (Master Shake, Frylock, Meatwad, and Carl Brutananadilewski)! That's right. In the past, Quotes were delegated to the infobox. I'm not sure when this decision was made, but it was likely a haulover from the old administrator User:Master Shake, but I'm afraid it ends now. Rather than cramming the quotes into the infobox or bogging the page down with 50+ quotes in the article contents, we will be making them their own page in the format "{Character Name}/Quotes" eg, "Master Shake/Quotes"
Now I want to lead a discussion on which quotes to add. This will be a community discussion (not an administrators-only discussion). However, let's focus on the four main characters, beginning with Master Shake instead of making one absolute mess of a thread (or handling five or ten different threads, which would be a headache for me to moderate).
Ground Rules:
Be considerate of others. If you disagree with a quote being listed on the article "Master Shake/Quotes" do so in a respectful way.
Do not create the "Quotes" article(s) yourself. I need to hold the discussion first, so we can have a more complete, comprehensive article of quotes.
This is not the discussion page for "Frylock/Quotes" or "Meatwad/Quotes" or "Carl Brutananadilewski/Quotes" Trust me: We'll get to those, but I want to focus on one at a time. Likewise, do not suggest quotes for other characters unless they lead into a quote for Master Shake.
Do not spam this thread with nonsense that is not relevant to the discussion.
Guidlines:
I will only allow quotes from official sources which includes the show, the two movies, the spin-off Aquadonk Side Pieces, "Baffler Meal" (listed towards the end of the article and not before Season 1), and official adult swim promos (such as the Fake dot com endings). I will not allow fan fiction, unofficial productions (including those endorsed by Adult Swim or uploaded on Adult Swim's website). bootlegs, or other fan-created projects. Note that other spin-offs (such as Carl's web spin-off and Anime Talk Show) will be applicable in the future, but Shake does not appear in those spin-offs as far as I know.
Quotes from dream sequences and simulations (eg, "Super Birthday Snake") are allowed if they are representative of the character. However, if the joke is that the character doesn't act like themself because it's a dream sequence (such as Shake's story at the beginning of Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm), it should probably not be listed. (I might this rule in the future if someone changes my mind.)
Try to stay on the topic of quotes for Shake. I enjoy a good tangent, but this thread can get messy in a hurry.
While not a hard rule, I would recommend browsing the wiki for the work (usually in the form of an episode or movie) where the quote comes from including a description of when it happens in the episode. I'd like these quotes on the page organized by season. If it's from Season 1, Season 2, most of Season 3, Season 5, or Season 8, I might be able to identify where it came from. However, please don't make me hunt for the source. If you can't remember which episode, please try to provide context, so I can deduce where it originates from.
Try to get the quote word for word if you can. The full series (except "Boston" and "Shake Like Me") are available on Max.
Try not to request too many quotes from the same episode. Additionally, there shouldn't be excessive quotes from any one season unless we are discussing Season 2 (which is twice as long as Season 7 and more than twice as long as Seasons 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11 by episode count). Five Master Shake quotes per episode is probably more than enough, and we don't need a quote from every single episode. I will not put a limit on the number of quotes for the season unless it becomes a problem.
I would hope to have at least three to five quotes per season.
Not everything Shake says is a one-liner. Please provide context (such as what the character said to Shake to elicit a response from him) unless it is funny or memorable on its own and/or makes reasonable sense without context.
We may at some point designate one (1) line for the section "Quotes" which will link to the "Master Shake/Quotes" page. This quote should be something iconic that reflects, and is representative of, the character's personality throughout the majority of the show. (I have a good idea for Carl's quote, but I'll save that for later.)
I think that more or less covers it. I'll reply to myself with my own suggested quotes in time. I look forward to holding this discussion. Thank you.
All right, so I checked, and it is still not currently possible to name an article as all lower case. I will have to clean up the redirects after this proposal. (I thought the servers would give me a warning before I did it.)
Should the article for mc chris (aka Chris Ward) be renamed "MC Chris" or "MC chris"? My personal opinion is that if it cannot be how he stylizes his name, it should be changed to the grammatically preferred format of "MC Chris."
I will not be renaming the page to Chris Ward at this time. The Season 11 episode "Hospice" clearly credits him as "MC CHRIS" (in all upper case because of the stylized "anime" credits), so we will be using his stage name as the title of the page.
One last thing: Yes, the article says "mc chris" when you click on links to the page, but this is a wikitext trick. I know this means it technically doesn't matter, but I think we should try to be consistent about the redirects upon redirects.

I think the article for the episode "Shaketopia" should be called "Shaketopia (Episode)" with a separate article about the location of "Shaketopia." I know "Shaketopia" is about a VR game Shake's playing, so the location of Shaketopia is not real even within the context of the episode's world, but there is precedent for us to document it on its own page. Shake's pinball table has its own article, so depending on how much there is to work with from the full episode, we may be able to create an appropriate article for Shake's VR game world.
There's a lot I don't know as of writing this. It's possible that viewers will see other VR worlds created by the same VR technology, or maybe we will only see Shake's. If there are other VR worlds, then perhaps we could create just one article that covers them all. There's a lot we don't know, but I thought I should give everyone a heads up that I may be moving the current existing article to "Shaketopia (episode)"
In the future, I may make the "Synopsis" (not to be confused with the detailed "plot summary") consistent for every episode article. This would apply to articles about ATHF episodes only. Articles on characters, promos (such as the Fake Dot Com Endings), and shorts (such as the Aquadonk Side Pieces web series) will not be affected for various reasons.
My proposal is that all 139 articles have a synopsis before the first heading like the one on the "Grim Reaper Gutters" page. I feel like this will give long-time fans and casual users an easier time remembering what episode they're referring to. If a user tries to find an episode page based on what they remember about the episode, it may take them a while to read the episode summary before they can decipher if the article describes the episode they're looking for or not. (Maybe a user is looking for the episode "Super Sir Loin," but they can only remember that Meatwad was trying to collect as much garbage as possible.)
I don't want to just copy a summary from an official source like Max or [adult swim]'s website because at this time, I cannot vouch for those summaries. I might find that some of them don't describe the episode well enough for this purpose. It could also be seen as borderline plagiarism to just copy and paste from the paid streaming service.
The synopsis will be free for editing, provided the page isn't locked from non-administrative users for other reasons (eg, edit wars). I'm fine with adjusting the synopsis of an episode over time if it could be improved (especially if there's an objective mistake like a typo or a link to the wrong article). I don't necessarily want the synopsis to be completely re-written at the tip of a hat, but I'm fine with minor or even moderate changes. This is a collaborative wiki after all.
I don't know when such a project will be completed. I'd like to have it done in the first quarter of 2024, but I can't promise that at this time. I'd also like to hear thoughts on this fairly major change to the wiki in the comments below. I welcome comments and questions, but do keep in mind the community is not active enough that this can be decided with a vote. I think that's all I want to say for now. Thanks for reading.
I really want to see Adult Swim bring back Carl's Stone Cold Lock of the Century......of the week. I would love to see some people have ideas of what Carl would say for this 2023 NFL season's select games from each week. For example, Chiefs vs. Vikings.
Carl's favorite song is "More Than a Feeling" by Boston, but I can't remember the source of this information. Was it in ATHFCMFFT? I know it's referenced in "Carl's Theme" by 9 lb Hammer, but I can't remember where Carl said it himself in the show.
Why did I make this?
Does anybody know the episode where it shows a White Lion poster? I remember it had two Dean Razorback guitar's on the poster, and I just wan't to see the poster again. Just can't find the episode... I don't remember the details of the episode besides the poster. (and not the WhiteSnake poster in the episode where they move)

This is Shwartz here: Last night, I got really paranoid because of troubling reports (that now seem false) claiming that Twitter is removing all pre-2014 tweets. I backed up all tweets from series co-creator Dave Willis cited on the wiki as sources (that I know of) to the website archive dot org as best I could. This appears to have just been fearmongering, but I want to make sure tweet content cited on the wiki is preserved. Ergo, I bring a new rule to the wiki.
New policy: When a tweet from any ATHF cast or crew member (eg, Dave Willis, Dana Snyder, Jay Wade Edwards, etc.) is cited as a source on a wiki article, the exact quote (word for word, down to the punctuation) should be documented in the references tag as part of MLA formatting. If a user does not know how to do that, they should contact administrator Edd Shwartz [that's me] to do it for them. Additionally, they should provide the date the tweet was issued and the date the tweet was retrieved.
This is NOT worthy of a ban, but I want to archive information like this in case Twitter really does start removing old tweets for any reason. I don't care if you think it's not important. I want that information written down, so that it is accessible.
Hi, I'm new to this wiki, also, I can't seem to find the age rules. Just so you know, I'm 13 but if this wiki is 16+ or something I'll politely ask you to block me for 3 years.
