67.183.17.14: /* Clarification is appreciated. */

well here, new article, since i didn't really like the way that the word anonymous redirected to [[troll]]

any contributions will be welcome, but i would like it if as much of the original text as possible was kept, since i think i did a pretty good job on the description {{unsigned|Chase fowlsbane}}

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

Hmm. I have a problem with the use of the word "group" to refer to Anonymous. Anonymous isn't a group, but a collective noun. It has no leader, no unifying principles etc. {{unsigned|79.68.126.140}}

Epic edit! I'll say right now, I'm not a furry. I am Anonymous. I wanted to fix your article because it just didn't seem complete. It still isn't, but I'll leave that up to you to finish. I fixed most of the group thing... I always thought we were more of a hive mind. As the above stated, we have no leader or unifying principals. Also, I wanted to get across that Anonymous is not a secret club; becoming friends with a member does not give you a golden ticket into the clubhouse. There is no clubhouse, for that matter. Furry input is generally not accepted into the hive mind because there is too much bad blood between the two... though admittedly, it's a bit childish on the part of both parties because neither is really a true group. I guess it's a bit like religion. Religion is an ideal, not a group. And yet, holy wars are still being fought by the hardcore believers of some religions. Other less fanatic believers may not wish to engage in the conflict... some may even tolerate members of other religions. Nevertheless, you can't be a member of both religions. The same goes for Anonymous and furries. Some of us might be friends with some of you, and vice versa, but you can't really have it both ways without people on both sides getting pissed. There's too much bad blood. It's ignorant, but hey... anonymous was founded on the freedom to be an ignorant, pig-headed asshole. Another important point is the lulz factor. Amononymous is synonymous with the pursuit of lulz. Lulz can be epic, lulz can be funny, lulz can be mean-spirited... as long as it amuses someone. We started out as, and most of us still are, just a bunch of average people who were bored. Lulz are the chemo to our boredom. The rest of Anonymous just developed from there. And, concluding this post... well, forgive me, but I just got to say it. IM IN UR WIKI, FIXN UR ARTIKALZ. Regards, Anonymous.

I know the mods will think of this anon's edit as a attempt to troll...but...I find the edit quite true, and stand by it. [[User:Kewne|Kewne]] 08:40, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
:I'm an admin and I'm not going to revert. Of course all are welcome to edit it, and challenge any statements made. --[[User:Rat|Rat]] 09:14, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
:Added {{[[Template:NPOV]])) to article head, while the article now does provide a much wider scope of information it does seem a bit too opinionated in parts, and for a "hive-mind" the author seems to have come upon some rather serious conclusions for the group as a whole. {{:User:Robomilk/sig}} 10:24, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
::As a *channer myself (yes, there are furry anonymous/furry /b/tards), I understand the neutrality debate...but, most of what the anon edit stated is pretty much true. As far as citing sources, well, kinda hard to do with a group that has no "leaders" and no "official" anything, isn't it? [[User:Kewne|Kewne]] 10:28, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
:::Indeed. Nothing is official. There is no true way to describe Anonymous without any personal bias, because no two see the same Anonymous. I edited this page to describe Anonymous the way most Anons describe Anonymous; however, if you ask any given participant in the hive mind what they think Anonymous as a whole stands for, you are likely to get a totally unique answer. For example, some might say that there is no place for homosexuality in Anonymous... and yet, others might not mind the occasional shota mixed in with their delicious loli. The same holds true for furries. Many in Anonymous have a zero-tolerance policy for "furfaggotry"... others have varying tolerances. I tend to observe that the majority look upon furries in at least a mildly negative light. I myself cannot say that accusations of personal bias are without foundation; indeed, I have trolled furries in the past and will continue to do so in the future. As a troll, it's easy to get a bad impression of furries; quite a few seem to be prone to emotional outbursts that are often ripe with lulz. Because there is a sort of common acknowledgement that furries have proven "easy targets," it has become a belief of the majority that furries are a thing to be trolled. Thus, I can say with confidence that it would be at least relatively accurate to say that the likelihood of a truce between Anonymous and furries is slim if not nonexistant. But again, I invite anyone to edit this article however they wish; Anonymous is, after all, a hive mind, and no description of Anonymous can be considered even remotely accurate without at least a few varied opinions. Again, I send my regards. -Anonymous.

== Clarification is appreciated. ==

I would really appreciate clarification on the section of furry anons, as there appears to be a serious case of "I saw it so I'm the best judge of whether it happened or not". The presence of yiff-infused threads on /b/ does not confirm that a group of furries are Anonymous. Specific examples of extensive *chan-based raids on individual furries can and should be mentioned, as well as the fact that Anonymous has not ever allied with furries, Project Chanology or not. Possibility or speculation does not confirm anything. Basing evidence on speculation and possibility, however, confirms that this wiki is willing to publish anything as long as it advances the agenda of furry leaders worldwide, which I must point out, does not advance any credibility to this website, rather doing the opposite. --[[Special:Contributions/67.183.17.14|67.183.17.14]] 00:48, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
:"I saw it" is a valid statement; we're not based on "reliable sources", just on whether or not something is actually true. Now, if you have reason to believe it ''isn't'' true, then you are of course welcome to edit the article appropriately. Since anyone can claim to be a member of an anonymous group, I'm unclear how it could be categorically disproved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]<sup>([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]])</sup> 00:57, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

[[Image:Anonymous.JPG|right|thumb|150px|Avatars of a female and male anons]]
'''Anonymous''' (used as a [[Wikipedia:mass noun|mass noun]], also known as '''Anons''') is the name given to the collective users of certain internet [[image_board|image boards]], forums, wikis and IRC channels. They derive their name from both the anonymous nature of these services, as well as the default username on some of the forums, which is simply "Anonymous." Posting as Anonymous is encouraged, and at times, mandatory.

Due to the group being vastly broad and diverse, the actions of individual Anonymous vary massively, yet most are content with mocking popular culture and one another, often in an extremely vulgar manner. This is often done through [[wikipedia:Internet meme|memes]] that an outsider would find confusing.

Their accepted motto is: ''We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget.''

== Anonymous and furry ==
[[File:Furnonimous.JPG|thumb|right|150px|Furnonimous logo]]
Traditional Anons tend to act out negatively towards a number of groups, including [[furries]], in the form of harassment and trolling because they have found it very amusing in the past. Anonymous acts in pursuit of [[lulz]]; in other words, as long as any one target contains the promise of personal (or group) amusement, it will be harvested for its "lulz" potential.

The Anonymous of [[4chan]], [[7chan]], [[Something Awful]] and particularly [[Encyclopædia Dramatica]] have conducted numerous notable "raids" on furries that were deemed "lulzworthy" targets. This has led to a generally negative image among furries towards Anonymous as a whole. However, while it is true that the majority of Anonymous share a negative view of furries, some members of Anonymous are in fact quite tolerant or indifferent of the furry subculture.

==== Furry Anonymous ====

Some furries {{who}} claim to be members of Anonymous. Some furry Anonymous post in secret, and yet others post openly. Whether a member of Anonymous is discovered to be a furry by chance, or was open from the beginning, harassment and trolling are possible - perhaps likely - from other Anons. Some are reasonably well-received, and are trolled little; others receive much harassment, or even become targets of extended "raiding." {{fact}}

Contrary to what some {{who}} may say, there is no "truce" between Anonymous and furries regarding furry participation in [[Project Chanology]]; however, because of the common goal, some Anonymous will tolerate or even accept furry participation in the fight against [[Wikipedia:Scientology|Scientology]]. {{fact}}

67.183.17.14: /* Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry */

{{LinkingSupporter}}
[[Image:EDLogo.png|right|Encyclopedia Dramatica Logo]]
[[Image:Censor NC17 button.png|right]]
'''Encyclopedia Dramatica''' (also known as '''ED''') is a reference-style [[Wikipedia:Parody|parody]] and satire wiki and acts as a central catalog for drama, memes, and other
(mostly Internet-based) happenings that its members find interesting.

* '''Addresses''':
** '''Website''': [http://tinyurl.com/bknqe encyclopediadramatica.com]
** '''IRC''': irc://irc.encyclopediadramatica.com/ed
* '''Founder''': Girlvinyl
* '''Administrators''': [http://tinyurl.com/eq679 external list]
* '''Ran from/to''': December 2004 - present

== History ==

Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded as a compendium of internet personalities, events and memes by Girlvinyl in response to the deletion of the Mediacrat vanity page on [[Wikipedia]],<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Mediacrat Mediacrat deletion page] on Wikipedia</ref> created by [[LiveJournal]] e-celebrity [[Wikipedia:User:Jameth|Jameth]] (who used to be an honorary administrator on the site.)<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2v2ycz Jameth user page on Encyclopædia Dramatica]</ref>

== Types of content ==

Most ED articles avoid a "neutral point of view" and encourage sarcasm, hyperbole, and other kinds of humor mocking the article's subject; they are not required to be referenced or have any basis in fact. It has been compared to an internet version of a [[Wikipedia:Supermarket_tabloid|tabloid]] and the [[Wikipedia:Devil's Dictionary|Devil's Dictionary]]. The only effective editorial requirements are that the content is legal and funny.<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2r2odu Encyclopedia Dramatica's basic rules page]</ref>

Article themes include:

*Criticism of Wikipedia, its editors, administrators, and policies.
*The people, events, and culture of [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]]
*Social and political commentary.
*Shock images.
*Blog, forum, and MMO* drama.
*Internet celebrities
*Internet memes, including those from [[SomethingAwful]] and the various Chan imageboards.
*Mocking subcultures like emo, goths, furries, and anyone the members consider to have an unwarranted case of self-importance.
*Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary or criticism.
*Purposeful misinformation.

=== Images ===

Encyclopedia Dramatica has a large amount of [[Wikipedia:Pornography|pornography]] and shock images. There are also many ads on the sidebars that feature this particular content.

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry ==

The site's material on furries is generally about the worst of the fandom, and like most articles on the site, it is intentionally offensive, and many users do display strong anti-furry sentiment. However, not all of its users are [[anti-furry]], and ED claims it only makes broad generalizations of the [[furry fandom]] and portraits all furries as sexual deviants because it is, according to ED, far more humorous and interesting to read about something scandalous and shocking. {{fact}}

Furries are generally not picked out from the crowd when editing as long as they follow the site's policies and refrain from vandalizing.<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2v7vvs Furries welcome page on Encyclopedia Dramatica]</ref> Besides criticizing the fandom in general, some furries use it to criticize specific individuals, particularly ones who they feel make furries look bad or to make private drama very public and persistent. The wiki is often used as staging ground for massive trolling or spamming crusades against a certain furry deemed particularly perverted or offensive, and ED 'raids' have forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[Deviantart]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{fact}}

== Controversy and criticism==
=== Drama ===

The most common criticism of Encyclopedia Dramatica is that its purpose of documenting drama often results in the promotion of drama, be it through invasions, pranks, reposting of sensitive information, or the very existence of an article on the site.

=== Copyright ===

The sensitive information that appears in ED articles is typically gathered from long-forgotten, obscure corners of the internet, and is usually upsetting to the subject, to the point of legal threats and action. Encyclopedia Dramatica relies on the satire and criticism fair use exception clauses of United States copyright law as a defense. Their [http://tinyurl.com/2lanph Arbchat procedure] is the sole method of information removal and revision that does not involve the legal system.

The website states that all content contributed is irrevocably "licensed for infinite use to Encyclopedia Dramatica, in electronic and all other media."<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/26p5l7 Encyclopedia Dramatica's copyright information]</ref>

=== Privacy ===

The site has an unwritten policy against revealing private information of those it satirizes. This is generally not applicable to public figures, and those whose information is well-known or easily obtainable -- especially if the resulting drama from inclusion is deemed funny. Despite the unwritten rule, private information on ordinary people is often revealed such as phone numbers and addresses if found.

==Dktorzi==
I'm not too sure from what I can tell that the recent edits to [[Dktorzi]] by [[Special:Contributions/85.244.74.203|User:85.244.74.203]] were vandalism. It appears to me they could have easily been someone (possibly Dktorzi himself) removing outdated info from the article. Or maybe not - the edits do look a little questionable (such as removal of the FA link), but in cases like that we should assume good faith and respond accordingly without being too quick to treat it as if it were overt vandalism. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 17:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

:I did, as you already suggested, checked to make sure it could have been in good faith. It was indeed the FA link removal and the non-response to my edit that could indicate that the edit was not kosher. Could still be wrong still, though - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 18:21, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Since GreenReaper is being a complete fucking DICK and refusing to even unban me from WikiFur so I can edit my own fucking article he's forcing me to ask you to do it for me.

Remove the following links off my page for the following reasons.

1) Artist does not exist and neither does my character picture
6) Page does not exist
7) All posts by me have been removed and I no longer use Tapestries
8) Message board messages no longer exist
9) Page does not exist
13) I'm banned from FA. There's nothing there to see.
16) Message board no longer exists
17) I only see three comments on this picture. None of them are from me.

Take care of this, GreenReaper is being a fucking dick and not letting me do it myself.

Hi Spirou,<br>
Are you sure that [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Dolphin&curid=4738&diff=282855&oldid=282783 this edit that you reverted] was vandalism? As a species, [[Wikipedia:Bonobo|bonobos]] are known to be promiscuous, so the anonymous edit by 173.87.163.35 was probably a legitimate attempt to add to the article.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 07:52, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

== Blanking ==

Hi Spirou, I hope I'm doing this right; just delete this edit if this isn't where I'm supposed to post it...Anyways, this was in my message inbox: "Do you have a reason to be blanking this sites, if so, please redirect the blanked page to the appropriate article [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 23:03, 13 December 2009 (UTC)". Yes, I was blanking some pages (since I didn't know how to delete them) that were supposed to be merged into other ones that I had created. They had been originally merged, but then another user separated the articles, and Wikifur staff put a note on them that they should be merged, so I was just re-doing it (again). But I wasn't logged in when I fixed it, and thus it probably looked like a hack, although it wasn't. :P

==Relevant writings==

In regards to our Wolfee discussion. I hope you'll see these before he can pull everything, I have screencaps but assume you prefer the actual source.

:* (A) Could you post the admission?
This has since been deleted from the video itself, here's the screencap

And original video
youtube.com/watch?v=ikTXMGTLzRk

Like I said, nasty habit of deleting things once he's realized he's incriminated himself. He admits to possession of the forum, but maintains he was never a zoophile. This is the admission he later recants in other videos. The subsequent comments remain, but he deleted the admission.

:* (B) You known this how?
If you can pull up the deleted Paxil Rose page it should be there. If you can't, the only other thing I have to convince you is:

:* (C) How you read that from the actions of the moderators, and why would the moderators care?
blog.wolfeedarkfang.com/?paged=2
'''Very manipulative addicted trolls'''
4th Paragraph second sentence;

"''I even brought it to the attention of a admin whom knows me pretty well from second life. Hopefully he wont be manipulated into believe this trolls lies and propaganda. Paxilrose bases his lies on partial truths to make the lies believable.'' "

Declaring that he "know an admins pretty well". I'd say that's an indication someone would care.

==Dktorzi==
I'm not too sure from what I can tell that the recent edits to [[Dktorzi]] by [[Special:Contributions/85.244.74.203|User:85.244.74.203]] were vandalism. It appears to me they could have easily been someone (possibly Dktorzi himself) removing outdated info from the article. Or maybe not - the edits do look a little questionable (such as removal of the FA link), but in cases like that we should assume good faith and respond accordingly without being too quick to treat it as if it were overt vandalism. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 17:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

:I did, as you already suggested, checked to make sure it could have been in good faith. It was indeed the FA link removal and the non-response to my edit that could indicate that the edit was not kosher. Could still be wrong still, though - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 18:21, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Since GreenReaper is being a complete fucking DICK and refusing to even unban me from WikiFur so I can edit my own fucking article he's forcing me to ask you to do it for me.

Remove the following links off my page for the following reasons.

1) Artist does not exist and neither does my character picture
6) Page does not exist
7) All posts by me have been removed and I no longer use Tapestries
8) Message board messages no longer exist
9) Page does not exist
13) I'm banned from FA. There's nothing there to see.
16) Message board no longer exists
17) I only see three comments on this picture. None of them are from me.

Are you sure that [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Dolphin&curid=4738&diff=282855&oldid=282783 this edit that you reverted] was vandalism? As a species, [[Wikipedia:Bonobo|bonobos]] are known to be promiscuous, so the anonymous edit by 173.87.163.35 was probably a legitimate attempt to add to the article.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 07:52, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

== Blanking ==

Hi Spirou, I hope I'm doing this right; just delete this edit if this isn't where I'm supposed to post it...Anyways, this was in my message inbox: "Do you have a reason to be blanking this sites, if so, please redirect the blanked page to the appropriate article [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 23:03, 13 December 2009 (UTC)". Yes, I was blanking some pages (since I didn't know how to delete them) that were supposed to be merged into other ones that I had created. They had been originally merged, but then another user separated the articles, and Wikifur staff put a note on them that they should be merged, so I was just re-doing it (again). But I wasn't logged in when I fixed it, and thus it probably looked like a hack, although it wasn't. :P

I have recently made a substantial edit to a fur's Wiki, here, and would like to request anonymity for it. I'm wondering whom I can talk to, and my email is tck6206@gmail.com

Could you disregard the Terrence request by user [[72.177.139.205]]?. The same user, 72.177.139.205, seems to have a problem with user [[Jaspian]], which makes the request not valid or serious imho - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 16:21, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

== Miu/Michael Vega redirect ==

Er, just FYI, when I said on the Michael Vega talk page that I had created it before noticing his note re: real name, and that I wasn't sure if that page should be there and it should be deleted if not - I meant the actual Michael Vega page, not the talk page itself. =) --[[User:Silvermink|Silvermink]] 08:10, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

==Relevant writings==

In regards to our Wolfee discussion. I hope you'll see these before he can pull everything, I have screencaps but assume you prefer the actual source.

:* (A) Could you post the admission?
This has since been deleted from the video itself, here's the screencap
images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/8/8c/WolfeeAdmitsIt.jpg

And original video
youtube.com/watch?v=ikTXMGTLzRk

Like I said, nasty habit of deleting things once he's realized he's incriminated himself. He admits to possession of the forum, but maintains he was never a zoophile. This is the admission he later recants in other videos. The subsequent comments remain, but he deleted the admission.

:* (B) You known this how?
If you can pull up the deleted Paxil Rose page it should be there. If you can't, the only other thing I have to convince you is:

:* (C) How you read that from the actions of the moderators, and why would the moderators care?
blog.wolfeedarkfang.com/?paged=2
'''Very manipulative addicted trolls'''
4th Paragraph second sentence;

"''I even brought it to the attention of a admin whom knows me pretty well from second life. Hopefully he wont be manipulated into believe this trolls lies and propaganda. Paxilrose bases his lies on partial truths to make the lies believable.'' "

Declaring that he "know an admins pretty well". I'd say that's an indication someone would care.

== Request for anonymity. ==

I have recently made a substantial edit to a fur's Wiki, here, and would like to request anonymity for it. I'm wondering whom I can talk to, and my email is tck6206@gmail.com

Thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from someone soon on this.

:Which fur please have you made it to, please (Terrence Kennedy‎?), and if so, I need to brush about acceptance of Gmail accounts. Sorry for the delay - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]]

::No, [[Jaspian]] article,... sorry in that case, no on both requests - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 16:15, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

== GreenReaper and request ==

Could you disregard the Terrence request by user [[72.177.139.205]]?. The same user, 72.177.139.205, seems to have a problem with user [[Jaspian]], which makes the request not valid or serious imho - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 16:21, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

== Miu/Michael Vega redirect ==

Er, just FYI, when I said on the Michael Vega talk page that I had created it before noticing his note re: real name, and that I wasn't sure if that page should be there and it should be deleted if not - I meant the actual Michael Vega page, not the talk page itself. =) --[[User:Silvermink|Silvermink]] 08:10, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

==A con, you say?==
"using Paxilrose rose (fake cons) as back-up is something we have learned not to use here at this wiki."

::This person is not a pal, chief, or buddy of mine (you assume a lot it seems in your life and writings).

==Relevant writings==

In regards to our Wolfee discussion. I hope you'll see these before he can pull everything, I have screencaps but assume you prefer the actual source.

:* (A) Could you post the admission?
This has since been deleted from the video itself, here's the screencap
images.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/8/8c/WolfeeAdmitsIt.jpg

And original video
youtube.com/watch?v=ikTXMGTLzRk

Like I said, nasty habit of deleting things once he's realized he's incriminated himself. He admits to possession of the forum, but maintains he was never a zoophile. This is the admission he later recants in other videos. The subsequent comments remain, but he deleted the admission.

:* (B) You known this how?
If you can pull up the deleted Paxil Rose page it should be there. If you can't, the only other thing I have to convince you is:

:* (C) How you read that from the actions of the moderators, and why would the moderators care?

'''Very manipulative addicted trolls'''
4th Paragraph second sentence;

"''I even brought it to the attention of a admin whom knows me pretty well from second life. Hopefully he wont be manipulated into believe this trolls lies and propaganda. Paxilrose bases his lies on partial truths to make the lies believable.'' "

Declaring that he "know an admins pretty well". I'd say that's an indication someone would care.

== Further Elaboration ==

I would love further elaboration on how what I edited was vandalism. {{unsigned|67.183.17.14}}

:What was the edit that the tag was attached to?. I may have been a random tagging (too many articles and users to keep track), if so, our apologies, and you may, as you did, remove the offending tag from your page - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 00:23, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

:::Could you elaborate, if you were so kind, we will decide if it was biased - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 03:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

::::Done - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 04:11, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

I deleted the section on types of anti-furs, as they seem very biased against them.

I would like to know why my page was moved with a (fursona) addition. That page is more about a real person than it is a fursona. I would like it moved back. [[User:Sergeant|Sergeant]] 21:55, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

==Dktorzi==
I'm not too sure from what I can tell that the recent edits to [[Dktorzi]] by [[Special:Contributions/85.244.74.203|User:85.244.74.203]] were vandalism. It appears to me they could have easily been someone (possibly Dktorzi himself) removing outdated info from the article. Or maybe not - the edits do look a little questionable (such as removal of the FA link), but in cases like that we should assume good faith and respond accordingly without being too quick to treat it as if it were overt vandalism. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 17:20, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

:I did, as you already suggested, checked to make sure it could have been in good faith. It was indeed the FA link removal and the non-response to my edit that could indicate that the edit was not kosher. Could still be wrong still, though - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 18:21, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

==Merge==

What was the need to merge those articles, huh? [[User:Fangusu|Fangusu]] 03:06, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

:Like with [[Madagascar]]'s [[Madagascar (characters, penguins)|penguins]] characters, is better for readers if a group of main characters taken from a large article like [[Alvin and the Chipmunks]] continue to stay grouped for easy access, instead to split them in multiple single articles all over the Wiki - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 03:36, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I would like to have my profile "Sirkillme" removed from WikiFur.
I tried to clear out my profile myself earlier tonight and it was restored instead.
Please remove my profile.

Thanks

== Mozdoc ==

I would like an explaination as to why there are now links to my DeadJournal and Flikr photo sharing page on my WikiFur page. I wish to have these removed since I want to distance myself from the furry fandom and leave it. I'm sick of all this fucking bullshit on WikiFur. Please edit these links out.

:"''I would like an explaination as to why there are now links to my DeadJournal and Flikr photo sharing page on my WikiFur page''" Because they were posted by typing the addresses down,... "''Please edit these links out.''" *sigh* Those are public links that anybody can post on any article, not subject to any privacy law. Happy new Year - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 01:17, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Since GreenReaper is being a complete fucking DICK and refusing to even unban me from WikiFur so I can edit my own fucking article he's forcing me to ask you to do it for me.

Remove the following links off my page for the following reasons.

1) Artist does not exist and neither does my character picture
6) Page does not exist
7) All posts by me have been removed and I no longer use Tapestries
8) Message board messages no longer exist
9) Page does not exist
13) I'm banned from FA. There's nothing there to see.
16) Message board no longer exists
17) I only see three comments on this picture. None of them are from me.

Take care of this, GreenReaper is being a fucking dick and not letting me do it myself.

Hi Spirou,<br>
Are you sure that [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Dolphin&curid=4738&diff=282855&oldid=282783 this edit that you reverted] was vandalism? As a species, [[Wikipedia:Bonobo|bonobos]] are known to be promiscuous, so the anonymous edit by 173.87.163.35 was probably a legitimate attempt to add to the article.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 07:52, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Will revert if so; I Wikipedia it, but I must have misspelled it, so I got no hits. My bad - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 15:38, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

== Blanking ==

Hi Spirou, I hope I'm doing this right; just delete this edit if this isn't where I'm supposed to post it...Anyways, this was in my message inbox: "Do you have a reason to be blanking this sites, if so, please redirect the blanked page to the appropriate article [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 23:03, 13 December 2009 (UTC)". Yes, I was blanking some pages (since I didn't know how to delete them) that were supposed to be merged into other ones that I had created. They had been originally merged, but then another user separated the articles, and Wikifur staff put a note on them that they should be merged, so I was just re-doing it (again). But I wasn't logged in when I fixed it, and thus it probably looked like a hack, although it wasn't. :P

Anti-furries

2010-03-22T01:23:09Z

67.183.17.14: /* Types */ Irrelevant

'''Anti-furries''' are those individuals who find furries and the [[furry fandom]] as a whole or in part to be repulsive, especially any and all aspects having to do with furry sexuality. Some of them also tend to exhibit great interest in the sociology of the [[furry]] community.

Anti-furries are sometimes referred to as "[[mundane]]s", although this term is more commonly used to refer to anyone who is not a member of the fandom.

== Anti-furry groups or communities ==

Many online communities have a strong anti-furry slant, such as [[Something Awful]], [[4chan]], [[YTMND]], [[YouTube]], [[Portal of Evil]], and [[Encyclopædia Dramatica]]. [[Crush! Yiff! Destroy!]] is an example of a site primarily catering to a general dislike of current furry fans and fandom. The reasons given for their behavior run the gamut from true harassment to just getting a few people together to laugh at the reaction of most furries to provoking [[drama]]. Members often contend that such sites merely exhibit the true state of the furry community, or at least a portion of it.

The Rush Limbaugh Show

2010-03-22T01:20:19Z

67.183.17.14:

__NOTOC__
In January 2005, [[furries]] were referenced on a weekend edition of '''''[[Wikipedia:The Rush Limbaugh Show|The Rush Limbaugh Show]]''''', a [[Wikipedia:Conservative|conservative]] U.S. [[Wikipedia:radio talk show|radio talk show]] revolving around politics and current events.

==Context==
Prior to [[Wikipedia:Second inauguration of George W. Bush|President Bush's 2005 inauguration]], the [[Wikipedia:New York Times|New York Times]] and broadcast media repeatedly criticized the [[Wikipedia:Republican Party|Republican party]] for planning an opulent event to commemorate his win when the U.S. was [[Wikipedia:Iraq War|at war with Iraq]]. Some also suggested festivities were inappropriate on the heels of the [[Wikipedia:2004 Indian Ocean earthquake|2004 Indonesian tsunami]].

[[Wikipedia:Rush Limbaugh|Rush Limbaugh]] responded by describing a [[furry convention]] ([[Further Confusion 2005]]) and quoting a talk show host's criticism of the inauguration in this new context.

== Transcription ==
[[File:YouAgreeWithRushLimbaugh.jpg|right|frame|An [[Wikipedia:image|image]] created after the event]]
{{q|Guess what folks... This weekend, 1,700 people - all of them animal lovers - are expected to gather at the furry convention in San Jose, California. The furries, for those of you who don't know - and I sincerely hope that that's most of you - are, er, people who love animals so much that they [[fursona|take on their identities]] and sometimes [[fursuiting|dress up like their animals]].

You heard me right, folks. These ''[[human]]s'' take on the identities of the animals they love and sometimes dress up like them. It allows adults - ''grown-up'' human beings - and this is a quote, "a place to act out their ''interspecies fantasies''." (1,700 of these people in one place...)

[[Lee Strom]] is one of the furry convention's founding fathers. He says just because it's ''weird'', it's still perfectly normal to the people involved in it. He's 36, he wants to be a ''[[raccoon]]''! The convention... (laughter) convention will have workshops for the furries: [[puppet]]ry, costume making, writing about mythical creatures, and here's one I think ought to be videotaped: a workshop on furry [[anatomy]]. (Can you find it? Can you find it?)

Apparently some furries aren't waiting until the convention starts this weekend to act out their ''inter-species fantasies''. A reporter caught up with Katie Matthew, 20, prancing through the lobby of a hotel dressed as a ''fox''... she was prancing with other adults dressed as goats, tigers, other creatures. Katie likes the fun of dressing up and escaping into her made up animal character, which she calls "Shadow".

Alright folks, I only have one question. We've got a war going on and the tragedy of the tsunami. Isn't this furry convention a little bit too festive and too costly?

There's a real furball for you liberals, eh? Ha ha, "Shut 'em down! Shut 'em down, it's perverted!"<ref>[http://www.lildobe.net/gallery2/v/Furry/media/rush-fc2005.mp3.html Recorded version of Rush Limbaugh's broadcast] provided by [[Andrew Koch]]</ref>}}

== Response ==
[[Furry fan]] [[Xydexx]] observed that the jibes put some [[anti-furries]] opposed to Rush's political views in the position of agreeing with him:
{{q|I think the fact that Rush Limbaugh made fun of [[furries]] (he picked up that report after [[Further Confusion 2005|FC2005]]) may have played a big part in the ultimate demise of their brand of humor.<ref>[http://www.livejournal.com/users/giza/171417.html?thread=1243545#t1243545 Comment to ''Proof that Something Awful Goons have no dignity''] - [[Xydexx]], {{lj-user|giza}} (15 August 2009)</ref>}}

'''Encyclopedia Dramatica''' (also known as '''ED''') is a reference-style [[Wikipedia:Parody|parody]] and satire wiki and acts as a central catalog for drama, memes, and other
(mostly Internet-based) happenings that its members find interesting.

* '''Addresses''':
** '''Website''': [http://tinyurl.com/bknqe encyclopediadramatica.com]
** '''IRC''': irc://irc.encyclopediadramatica.com/ed
* '''Founder''': Girlvinyl
* '''Administrators''': [http://tinyurl.com/eq679 external list]
* '''Ran from/to''': December 2004 - present

== History ==

Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded as a compendium of internet personalities, events and memes by Girlvinyl in response to the deletion of the Mediacrat vanity page on [[Wikipedia]],<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Mediacrat Mediacrat deletion page] on Wikipedia</ref> created by [[LiveJournal]] e-celebrity [[Wikipedia:User:Jameth|Jameth]] (who used to be an honorary administrator on the site.)<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2v2ycz Jameth user page on Encyclopædia Dramatica]</ref>

== Types of content ==

Most ED articles avoid a "neutral point of view" and encourage sarcasm, hyperbole, and other kinds of humor mocking the article's subject; they are not required to be referenced or have any basis in fact. It has been compared to an internet version of a [[Wikipedia:Supermarket_tabloid|tabloid]] and the [[Wikipedia:Devil's Dictionary|Devil's Dictionary]]. The only effective editorial requirements are that the content is legal and funny.<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2r2odu Encyclopedia Dramatica's basic rules page]</ref>

Article themes include:

*Criticism of Wikipedia, its editors, administrators, and policies.
*The people, events, and culture of [[Wikipedia:LiveJournal|LiveJournal]]
*Social and political commentary.
*Shock images.
*Blog, forum, and MMO* drama.
*Internet celebrities
*Internet memes, including those from [[SomethingAwful]] and the various Chan imageboards.
*Mocking subcultures like emo, goths, furries, and anyone the members consider to have an unwarranted case of self-importance.
*Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary or criticism.
*Purposeful misinformation.

=== Images ===

Encyclopedia Dramatica has a large amount of [[Wikipedia:Pornography|pornography]] and shock images, but does not allow photos of people under the age of 18. There are also many ads on the sidebars that also feature this particular content.

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry ==

The site's material on furries is generally about the worst of the fandom, and like most articles on the site, it is intentionally offensive, and many users do display strong anti-furry sentiment. However, not all of its users are [[anti-furry]], and ED claims it only makes broad generalizations of the [[furry fandom]] and portraits all furries as sexual deviants because it is, according to ED, far more humorous and interesting to read about something scandalous and shocking.

Furries are generally not picked out from the crowd when editing as long as they follow the site's policies and refrain from vandalizing.<ref>[http://tinyurl.com/2v7vvs Furries welcome page on Encyclopedia Dramatica]</ref> Besides criticizing the fandom in general, some furries use it to criticize specific individuals, particularly ones who they feel make furries look bad or to make private drama very public and persistent. The wiki is often used as staging ground for massive trolling or spamming crusades against a certain furry deemed particularly perverted or offensive, and ED 'raids' have forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[Deviantart]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{fact}}
