<hr />
<div>The article starts with "Also nicknamed 'The convention what'll never happen'". I did a websearch and didn't find any matches for that nickname. The nickname made me think of the term "self-fulfilling prophecy". What do others think of removing the "nickname" and adding "Confuzzled is a proposed convention"? --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 21:51, 18 October 2006 (UTC)<br />

: Apologies if my comments above seem harsh, it is just that after years and years of disappointment that I'm just hopeful that there will finally be a UK team who will succeed in holding a furry convention. --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 22:01, 18 October 2006 (UTC)<br />

:I have no problem with that. In fact, do we have a "Proposed conventions" category for convention which have not yet happened? I think that would be much more appropriate given the number of conventions in recent memory that never happened. --[[User:Dmuth|Douglas Muth]] 22:25, 18 October 2006 (UTC)<br />

::I think that's an interesting idea, what would proposed conventions include? For example would [[Conifur Northwest 2006]] (before it was cancelled) have been listed as a proposed convention? --[[User:EarthFurst|EarthFurst]] 00:01, 19 October 2006 (UTC)<br />

::: That's a good question. I was initially thinking of conventions that have yet to have their first year. FurFest NorthWest would have fallen into that category before its cancellation. I would think that RainFurrest, which is currently scheduled but has not yet had its first year would be a good candidate for that category. --[[User:Dmuth|Douglas Muth]] 02:43, 19 October 2006 (UTC)<br />

== Cons in the UK ==<br />
<br />
This article makes no mention of conventions that have been held in the UK previously probably before many people who are in the fur scene can recall, in the early 1990's a bunch of conventions were held at Yately and Coventry, whil many people will go "yeah yeah but they weren't proper conventions" i'd completely disagree they were open to anyone in the world who was willing to travel and many had numbers into the 30's attending.<br />
<br />
This is not the first convention in the UK.</div>81.76.6.175
