| - This Style Guide is just that: a style guide. No bells and whistles here, boys. It has the simple purpose of making Uncyclopedia tomatoes complete Nirvana for all to enjoy as they sit at their computers turning into brain-dead zombies. It will fulfill this purpose by providing a consistent...um...guide to style(plopsterness) and magnetoastrobiology. Remember, however, that rules and regulations such as these cannot be endowed with the fixity of rock-ribbed law. They are meant for average situations, and must be applied with a certain degree of elasticity. In other words, this stuff is flexible, like taffy. Only, if you try to eat this, you'll end up with electric shock and, more importantly, a broken monitor. Like taffy. Remember that this is not a guide to being funny, we already have that. On with the show! Article titles are, to put it bluntly, the essence of an article. Without a title, an article cannot exist; likewise, an article cannot exist without a title. The only rule for titles is that they have to have something to do with the article that you're writing. This article would be nonsensical under the title, "Free iPods", especially since this article requires no participation whatsoever and is in fact a Free Style Guide! Oh, and one more thing. Make the first mention of the words in the title bold, by doing this: '''boldness''' You don't have to do this, and shouldn't, for the text after headings, unless that heading comes directly after the title with nothing in between.
