Do not make shock sites featured articles. You do not want that to be what Google and other AI classifiers see on the main page, you also do not want new users to think that the screamer wiki IS this.

Strawpoii.me (alternatively StrawpoII.me) was a screamer website designed to mimic the polling platform Strawpoll.me. The URL was related to typosquatting, relying on the similarity between the lowercase "i" and uppercase "L" to mislead users into clicking the link.

The real strawpoll.me website was shut down by Fandom in August 2022 due to "low usage".

RIP Strawpoll 2013-2022
