Irkens Construction Idea
This Wacky idea came from here at http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Irken_Empire

Almighty Tallest
The Irken government is based on a dictatorship where one rules over the others. They also have a rather controversial way of choosing their leaders that the New Republic consider to be a form of "white supremacy." The determination of the Irkens' leader depends on the candidate's height. The tallest Irken automatically becomes the leader of the others, or the "Almighty Tallest" as called by the Irkens. The job of the Almighty Tallest is to keep watch over the other Irkens and make sure that they are doing their job. They also oversee major invasions and other major events. (see "Historical Days") Previous Almighty Tallests such as "Almighty Tallest Nigzarvich" (who is now the CEO of the Solana Galaxy's most popular fast-food chain, Galaxy Burger) have help the Irken Empire flourish and become successful in conquering many planets and gaining much wealth. The present leaders, Almighty Tallest Red and Almighty Tallest Purple (there are currently 2 leaders because Red and Purple are both the same height) are not the best leaders the Irkens have had. You could say that that Red and Purple are the Irkens' answer to planet Earth's past president, Dubya. Instead of keeping the Irken Empire running smoothly, they have been known to instead relax, eat, and huff kittens for hours on end without stopping. Though incompetent and lazy, Almighty Tallest Red and Almighty Tallest Purple have managed to keep the Irken Empire running as well as keeping Invader Zim from ruining major events and social gatherings. Aside from runing the Irken Empire (which very little time is spent on doing this), Red and purple like nothing more than to relax, gorge on junk food, and go on a double-date with Sebulba's female masseuses. This however, has infuriated Sebulba to no end, especially since he can do nothing about it or the Tallest would send some Invaders to conquer his home planet of Malastare. 

Irken Soldiers/Slavedrivers
The Irken soldier is the backbone and muscle of the Irken Empire. Although when it comes to planetary invasion, an Invader is sent to conquer the planet of interest. When it comes to major invasions, defense, galactic war, or galactic domination, the Irken soldiers are their to fight, destroy, or oppress their enemies. Irken soldiers carry specialized blasters that can shoot both powerful blasts of energy(to destroy an opponent or gravely injure them) as well as blasts of ice(to immobilize enemies). They also carry special staffs which can control any kind of machinery(as well as minds). These staffs can also shoot deadly bolts of electricity that can stun an enemy for several minutes as well as cause mass destruction. The first Irken soldiers were living, breathing irkens wearing large, strong armor that very few weapons could penetrate. These soldiers however, in later years, proved to be a flop since some of the soldiers began to become frightened by the idea of going into battle after years of doing nothing but fighting with enemy troops. After Invader Zim(AKA Cyborg Zim, as this was after Zim was rebuilt) and Dr. Nefarious joined forces thus linking Dr. Nefarious and his resources with the Irken Empire, new Irken soldiers came forth. Dr. Nefarious had constructed soldiers that mimicked the appearance of the Irken Empire's current soldiers(armor, weapons, and all), only these new soldiers were purely mechanical and obeyed orders given to them from their generals 100%. The original Irken soldiers were then phased out and given new jobs and tasks to perform such as bodyguard work and slavederiving.

Main Page holidays
There is now a tradition of celebrating various anniversaries (some fictional) with a Google-like reskinning of Uncyclopedia's Main Page. Examples have included:
 * April 1, 2005: WikiTestament - for April Fools' Day the Uncyclopedia page was given an evangelistic skinning.
 * July 4, 2005: A "simple" version of Uncyclopedia - for Americans, featuring various (gentle) insults (including intentionally bad spelling).
 * July 30, 2005: International Page Blanking Day - where most of the main page was blanked, as an homage to the vandal technique of blanking pages. (Note: This archived version only has the opening text changed. None of the page is blanked.)
 * August 1, 2005: Swiss National Independence Day - the front page was edited to have a distinctly Neutral/Financial theme.
 * August 31, 2005: Blogese Main Page - for International Blog Day, the main page parodied many of the perceived elements of blogs.
 * September 12, 2005: Uncyclopedia Plus! - the Uncyclopedia main page was given the "premium website" treatment, with several links urging for users to subscribe. The main page declared, "FINALLY! Now I can PAY for all of my Uncyclopedia fun!"
 * September 19, 2005: Pirateopedia - logo is changed to "Pirateopedia" and main page has a pirate theme in honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day; incidentally, Uncyclopedia was Slashdotted on this day, causing a webserver error where the pirate logo was circulated throughout the Wikia network.
 * October 16, 2005: House of Pomegranates - logo is changed to "The House of Pomegranates" (showing Oscar Wilde) and site is re-designed to use his writing style to celebrate the birthday of its supposed "founder".
 * November 22, 2005: Trekkieopedia/Uncyc Alpha - logo and main page reskinned to spoof Memory Alpha on their birthday.
 * December 3, 2005: AAAAAAAAA!-day - everything on the front page is expressed with the letter A.
 * December 25, 2005: North Korea - Eschewing Christmas, the front page is transformed into a pro-North Korean propaganda page, including replacement of the Uncyclopedia logo with a portrait of Kim Jong-il.
 * January 5, 2006: Uncyclopedia's First Birthday - The main page and logo are reskinned in "retro" (one year old) style to celebrate the anniversary of the site's founding.
 * January 24, 2006: Plain Text Day - The main page is reskinned to give the impression it is rendered using a text mode browser.
 * January 28, 2006: Victory in Euroipods Day - The main page is modified as a World War II Victory Theme, in black and white, and the logo has a large 'V' printed on it, as a symbol for 'V for Victory'. The reskin was meant to celebrate the end of a wiki-wide conflict caused by an administrator abusing his power to feature a stub of questionable quality for fun. Banned users involved in the conflict, which became known as the "Euroipods Crusade", were unbanned on this day.
 * February 5, 2006: Uncyclopedia, Superb Owl Sunday edition! A tribute to the Super Bowl, with multiple references to Peyton Manning
 * February 13, 2006: Turtleopedia, an unplanned minor reskin making fun of the latency issues Wikipedia experienced on that day.
 * February 14, 2006: Emopedia, the "dark, loveless encyclopedia" - the main page is reskinned in dark tones and filled with phrases about loneliness and suicide to celebrate St. Valentine's Day.
 * February 26, 2006: Uncyclopedia's Main Page is changed to mirror Wikipedia's proposed new main page, despite Wikipedia not yet having made that the official main page. After Wikipedia made the switch, the administrators jokingly accused them of having copied Uncyclopedia's main page design.
 * March 4, 2006: Ewokpedia, the "IE-free Edit Wars encyclopedia" - a tribute to Star Wars and particularly Wookieepedia's first anniversary. The logo is changed to an image of the unfinished second Death Star (Which actually has the current Wikipedia logo embedded into it.), like the actual Wookieepedia logo.
 * March 19, 2006: Return of the AAAAAAAAA! Day - all letters on the main page are changed to "A" once again, as the "AAAAAAAAA!" article is refeatured as Uncyclopedians' favorite featured article of 2005.
 * March 30, 2006 - March 31, 2006: Uncyclopedia in Mourning - a death theme mourning the departure - not the actual deaths - of two established Uncyclopedians.
 * April 1, 2006: iHumor - an Apple site parody, because Apple was founded on the 1st of April.
 * April 20, 2006: Hitler's Birthday - the main page was reskinned and the Uncyclopedia Logo is replaced with a picture of Adolf Hitler as a baby. An article on the fictional computer game Holocaust Tycoon was used as the day's featured article.
 * April 22, 2006: National Try To Assassinate The President Day - A large image covers the main page saying "This Site Has Been Shut Down by the FBI! You Can Click But You Can't Assassinate the President."  Underneath this is a box made to look like a rating from the MPAA film rating system reading "Assassinating the President:  Not a very nice thing to do". This is a parody of GameFAQs's April Fools joke for 2006.
 * May 15, 2006: Yahoos! - The entirety of the main page is replaced with a spoof of Yahoo's main page.
 * June 6, 2006: Satanopedia - The main page is redesigned to look satanic because of the date being 06/06/06.
 * July 1, 2006: Baconopedia - The main page is designed to be in favour of Canadians and Bacon in honour of Canada Day.
