RESTORE THIS SHIT

Articles

  • restore the articles listed here by hand, then remove them from the list once restored!
  • and restore any articles linked to on the old main page (here) that aren't already restored
  • use webarchive/Wayback Machine to visit the 4chanarchive pages linked to in the templates, and update with chanarchive pages linked to on the archived 4chanarchive pages (now that 4chanarchive links redirect to the main page on chanarchive.org)
Other stuff to do

Other high-priority stuff

(its amazing how so many newfigs/outsiders associate ed + 4chan with the current day incarnation of the group anonymous but these are still good articles to mention.) Maybe??

this first tomorrow

How to research Memes

" Skankin Streetlights Conversationalist + – 25

First, I google all the names that a dank meme goes by, and read what other press have said about it. Then I look it up in KYM, Urban Dictionary, Lurkmore.to, Ukrainan ED, Foolz, whatever other references may have referenced it before. Then I do a Google Insights analysis comparing the terms to see if I can find a beginning date that people first began searching for it. Google Insights doesn’t represent when t first occurred, but when people took interest.

From there I do a “Specific Date Range” search under Google’s “More options” feature, and use the beginning of the trend as my end date, with the beginning generally set to the Year 2000, or prior if the meme seems to be older than that.

From there, I then sort through the search results and try to narrow it down to the earliest appearence. But Google’s date range search feature isn’t perfect because most blogs tend to show up with the date they were started or first archived by Google rather than when the phrase first appears. Forum signatures also lead to a lot of false results. (I pray that we never add signatures here.) It’s kind of a hit-and-miss method that’s better for memes with more unique names.

For memes that are more obviously 4chan-related, checking 4archive.org or archive.moe or 4plebs or rebeccablacktech/rbt.asia is usually handy. for 8chan memes, http://8archive.moe/

And quite often, during all that searching, I end up finding interesting posts in other forums that look like the origin, and then I try to get in contact with the poster so I can ask them questions directly. <--(lol stalker much KYM? i dont do this -CrackRabb) This is why I always stress for people not to ask “is this a meme” and instead only submit dank memes articles based on what they already know. Otherwise, they can sit in BNA for a VERY long time. " -- adapted from http://knowyourmeme.com/forums/meme-research/topics/2599-how-to-search-for-an-origin

#MEEPCREW PRIDE WORLD WIDE :^)
This user has proven their worth to ED under the guidance of the holy Pope Meepsheep and has been named an honorary member of the prestigious #Meepcrew. As a result, they will likely show excessive love for catgirls, admiration of Lil B, undying support of the black homosexual community, Adventure Time avocation, and rampant Pynchon fanboyism. Keep in mind they are your intellectual superior, but you can be this cool too someday!
