== Reinstatement ==

On discussion/suggestion with common third party, the ban for this account has been removed subject to future user behavior. And to cutoff counterproductive arguments before it gets out of hand. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 09:58, 15 March 2014 (EDT)

== Protection of templates ==

You suggested that {{tl|Featured article}} needs to be protected - why? Certainly, you can edit it, but that argument could be applied to every template, and indeed every page. As a practical matter, they have not been vandalized, probably because it would be rightly seen as a waste of time. Conversely, protection prevents regular users, such as yourself, from directly improving these templates. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 06:06, 19 March 2014 (EDT)

== Logos, other comic media ==

If you need some media to work on the "[[WikiFur:Comic of the Week|Comic of the Week]]" pages, you can peruse the [[WikiFur:Gallery (logos)|Wikifur media galleries]] if you need some logos/comic panels to flesh you articles. Just FYI, and hope this helps - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 04:05, 25 March 2014 (EDT)

== Spammers ==

We appreciate the effort you're putting into Wikifur, including helping clean up spam and vandalism. I wanted to make you aware that we have several admins who check the recent changes regularly, and if a new user creates a spam page or userpage with spam in it, we generally discover these and deal with them quickly, often in under an hour. When you blank these pages, it adds a couple extra steps for us in doing this, as we then have to pull up the page history to view the old version to confirm it's spam. So when it's new or very recent activity, please leave it alone.

If the spammer has modified or added to an existing non-spam page, go ahead and revert it. If it appears malicious or particularly egregious, use your judgment - we'll still catch it eventually and we won't be upset with you if it's not always what we would have done. Finally, if it appears we've overlooked one of these spam pages (especially if it's over 24 hours old and there is evidence of more recent admin activity), go ahead and blank or edit it - while we catch >99% of the spam/vandalism early on, occasionally something slips past our radar, so any activity that will float it to the top of the recent changes should bring it to our attention.

Again, thank you for your help and support. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 09:55, 28 March 2014 (EDT)

Hello Interstellar Shipping & Trading, I'm Vermin. Nice to meet you. :>

I was hoping I could team up with you on WikiFur and possibly assist you in any way, since I'm new here. I'm also a ferret enthusiast and I plan on obtaining one as a pet shortly. I'm going to name him Schnookums, after a friend of mine I met from another wiki.

Continued personal attacks against user Spirou will result in administrative action being taken against your account. --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 01:41, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
:Excuse me? Where did I personally attack him? I was responding to his deletion of my article, and then responding to his words to me. Not once did I call him any sort of name or insult him, so why are you posting threats on my talk page? If anything, I am being personally attacked by being falsely labeled as an attacker when I'm doing nothing more than trying to contribute to this wiki. From the very policy you just linked to me: {{quote|Also remember that many newcomers have to learn their way around, so be especially careful to explain, not attack}} [[User:Brian vermin|Brian vermin]] ([[User talk:Brian vermin|talk]]) 01:44, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

:<blockquote> ...Spirou clearly has an unfair bias regarding the situation due to his obvious hatred of Encyclopedia Dramatica, and I feel there won't be any use attempting to explain anything to him because of it.</blockquote>
:<blockquote> ...I feel he needs to be mature and respect the work of others instead of jump the gun and pull the plug on anything that mentions the site due to his personal vendetta.</blockquote>
:<blockquote> Did you even read it, or did you just see "Encyclopedia Dramatica user" and click the delete button?</blockquote>
:<blockquote>You seem to have a vendetta against ED (your falsified "malware" warning is a definite sign). That's fine, but be mature and keep it out of the subject at hand and respect other people's work. Clearly I'm new to writing here so you should be assisting me instead of jumping the gun, deleting my efforts, and accusing me of attacking people or intentionally violating any policies.</blockquote>

Additionally, the notice I left on your page outlining the NPA policy is "explaining, not attacking".

Again, continued personal attacks will result in your account being frozen. --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 01:52, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

Did you really just call me an obsessive stalker for trying to help out and expand a people article on the wiki?  [[User:Brian_Vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_Vermin]] 22:04, 3 November 2014 (EST)

:You first tried to add his real life photo with no permission into the article (copyright infringement, not helpful), then you try to add a link to his real life photo by using it as a valid "reference" to prove his ethnicity, then finally distorted the users actual quote:
:{{q|My fursona, most personal character, literally a [[W:Fiction|fictional]] anthropomorphic [[animal]] version of me in every way.}}
:To include a statement he did not utter/state:
:{{q|Hunter is literally a fictional anthropomorphic animal version of him in every way, '''right down to the studded collar he wears in person.'''}}
:...to be able to include/link his real life photo, again.

:I sent a personal msg/DM to the user to see if we can use his real life photo in the article. Is direct, and if he allows it, then a reference photo can be fairly used to expand the user/person's article. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 22:32, 3 November 2014 (EST)

== Re: ==

First off, I ask you again to stop moving my talk posts around. Just like before, I didn't start this conversation with myself, I started it with you.

Second, I did not "distort his quote" as you claimed, and if you review my edit on the page's history, you (and anyone else) will see that I in fact put the appropriate reference after the actual quote, and then added the comparison of the collar wearing after it with a *separate* reference. Falsely accusing me of distorting people's words and calling me an obsessive stalker are personal attacks in my opinion, and I as a new user don't appreciate it from you as an admin when I'm trying to help out around here.

I also spoke to GR in IRC this morning and he gave me permission to post links to photos as opposed to uploading copyright ones, because I specifically asked him what the policy for uploading photos on WikiFur was.

And from your edit summary "hell, I'm not going to get any work done tonight..." You'll be able to get plenty of your work done if you stop going out of your way to undermine mine. Respect other people's work.  [[User:Brian_Vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_Vermin]] 22:44, 3 November 2014 (EST)

:First, Curators can move talk pages discussions to the pertinent pages if necessary, in this case your editorial behavior under this handle; Second, I send a courtesy note to FatalSyndrome asking permission for the use of the image either on site or even link to it, because, on the last one, we had had users not agreeing to even URL linking their real life photos, most of the time under the privacy guideline.

: "''You'll be able to get plenty of your work done if you stop going out of your way to undermine mine.''" (...FFPS...) No, we (I) are not "undermining" you (well, with the exception of removing those three copyright violation images); in this case, respect the user's privacy wishes if he/she/they have any issues with the photo or link, and continue with your edits, which most of them have been in line of proper editorial work (tweaks like formatting your ref links, add internal/external/Wikipedia links, bolding, etc,.. is further article editing, not personal attacks).

:Tl;dr: Stop inserting a personal image by any means until such time the affected user allows direct loading, or indirect linking, as people have had mostly privacy issues with both methods in the past... and, nobody is out to get you. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 23:13, 3 November 2014 (EST)

::That was much kinder and helpful, thx.  [[User:Brian_Vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_Vermin]] 23:23, 3 November 2014 (EST)

== Seth Vermin response ==

...And this why the removal of photo and link (msg via FA from Seth Vermin, as FatalSyndrome):

{{q|RE: Real life picture use permission
Sent By: FatalSyndrome to spirou On: November 3rd, 2014 11:02 
I'd rather not, honestly, if that's okay! No linking either, please. 
Who even found a real life picture of me, just curious? 
Thank you for letting me know!}}

This has happened in the past and will happen in the future. Just make sure of user's right of privacy, that's all. Hope this helps. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 23:27, 3 November 2014 (EST)

:"Who even found a real picture of me?" He posted it on his public Twitter account, which is publicly linked on his FurAffinity account, including as a header to every one of his journal entries. Surely he understands how that works...lol. And hopefully he understands I was merely attempting to expand the people article of my favorite furry artist, as he's the one I commissioned for my rat character. But anyway, yes, that did help, and I thank you for explaining it to me.  [[User:Brian_Vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_Vermin]] 23:36, 3 November 2014 (EST)

== Recent [[Draco Lockhard]] change ==

A couple of questions regarding the recent [[Special:Diff/439124 |change]] to the article. First of all, I believe there ''is'' considerable semantic difference between http://drakia.com/ – which is a URI designating a Web page (or Web site), and ''Drakia.com'' – which is a DNS name, not necessarily related to the World Wide Web at all. (Say, it may designate a mail-only domain, or a Kerberos realm, etc.) Is it really necessary to replace the former with the latter (in the link text)?

Also, I wonder if youtu.be/rlVmr38v5IY – an interview Draco Lockhard gave to the short-lived Georgian “First Caucasian” TV channel back in 2010 – could be cited to support the <q >best known for his [[fantasy]] and [[science fiction]] works involving [[dragon]]s</q> claim?

TIA.

== Recent [[Draco Lockhard]] change ==

A couple of questions regarding the recent [[Special:Diff/439124 |change]] to the article. First of all, I believe there ''is'' considerable semantic difference between http://drakia.com/ – which is a URI designating a Web page (or Web site), and ''Drakia.com'' – which is a DNS name, not necessarily related to the World Wide Web at all. (Say, it may designate a mail-only domain, or a Kerberos realm, etc.) Is it really necessary to replace the former with the latter (in the link text)?

Also, I wonder if youtu.be/rlVmr38v5IY – an interview Draco Lockhard gave to the short-lived Georgian “First Caucasian” TV channel back in 2010 – could be cited to support the <q >best known for his [[fantasy]] and [[science fiction]] works involving [[dragon]]s</q> claim?

TIA.

==Heya==

Thanks for going over my edits to [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]] and leaving feedback in the summary for me. Patience and help are always appreciated when I'm on a new encyclopedia with a different atmosphere than my home wiki. Are you a fan/user of ED as well?  [[User:Brian_vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_vermin]] 09:39, 3 November 2014 (EST)
:No indeed, I merely enjoy making writing tighter. When RecentChanges shows edits to a page that is more than someone's personal diary, I look in. Thanks for agreeing that my assertion, that the tone of three ED articles was not acerbic but self-deprecating, did not require a fetish confession as a proof! However, after I made that change, I looked at your Aquaphilia article; except possibly for one or two photos, it has no relation to furries at all except a link that the reader might bring to the reading. So I toyed with removing that too, but you can decide. Cheers! [[User:SPIKE|SPIKE]] ([[User talk:SPIKE|talk]]) 11:10, 3 November 2014 (EST)

::Right, I wrote the article about aquaphilia from a general standpoint which could be applied to any fandom/subculture that took interest in it. Here, I was providing additional examples of furries/furry fans writing satirical articles about fetishes found in furry artwork to clarify the "fun spin" mentioned in the article where further clarification was requested by the template.  [[User:Brian_Vermin|Vermin]]  [[File:Brian Vermin icon.jpg|33px|link=User_talk:Brian_Vermin]] 12:08, 3 November 2014 (EST)
:You say there is an intersection between furry and aquaphilia, but your ED article doesn't claim one.

That was clearly an endearing article written by a friend who knows him well enough to write a WikiFur entry about him. But no one's gonna be able to weigh in or contest that because you outright deleted it without consensus. Did you even read it, or did you just see "Encyclopedia Dramatica user" and click the delete button? There were no attacks or "lulz" in it as you claimed, and including a little bit of controversy is common in furry articles. [[User:Brian vermin|Brian vermin]] 23:33, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
:''"That was clearly an endearing article"''. No that was a POV, heavily unreferenced, biased article. ''"you outright deleted it without consensus."'' There is consensus, and there is articles that are suspect right of the bat. ''"and including a little bit of controversy is common in furry articles..."'' No, it is not, they are the exception to the rule (this is not ED), and when it is, is [[furry]] related (which is strange, because you concentrated on his perceived ED administrator faults, but outright failed to mention the [[Lemonade Coyote]] angle.)
:*''"Admits to dealing with this issue of self-hatred by taking his anger out on other male furs."''
:*''"He has engaged himself in drama often enough to result in an entire article being written about him on the website which documents the controversy he chose to participate in."''
:*''"His personality while in character as Schnookums consists of utilizing an intrusive approach to others and following through with a passive aggressive response to personal attacks aimed at him."''

::Lol... your interpretation of friendship has no place in this discussion, so pls keep it out of here. And why did you delete my entry off of your talk page and republish it onto mine? I wasn't directing that message to myself, I was directing it to you. You also zeroed in on a few selected things here, making it seem like that's all the article contained, when in fact it was much more insightful than that.

::The part about his passive aggressive behavior is me defining his weasel fursona that he roleplays with. That's obviously furry related.

::If you saw it more fit to cover the Lemonade Coyote angle over his other online behavior, then why didn't you expand upon that instead of deleting the entire article?

::You seem to have a vendetta against ED (your falsified "malware" warning is a definite sign). That's fine, but be mature and keep it out of the subject at hand and respect other people's work.

Well, now everyone can see it. My personal opinion? It's reasonable to have an article on this subject, given their involvement with furry fandom, and we should strive as editors to work content which is provided to us into a good article rather than delete it out of hand. That doesn't mean we need maintain alleged "attack material" on the article itself, but we should seek to maintain ''some'' article, by removing the questionable content for debate on the talk page. In this way, we have a usable article for the time being, and everyone can see what's going on. If there is literally nothing left after removing attack material, it may be reasonable to delete the article. If there is doubt about a contributor's [[WikiFur:Assume good faith|good faith]], that is a concern, but it need not preclude this process. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:44, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

== Protection of templates ==

You suggested that {{tl|Featured article}} needs to be protected - why? Certainly, you can edit it, but that argument could be applied to every template, and indeed every page. As a practical matter, they have not been vandalized, probably because it would be rightly seen as a waste of time. Conversely, protection prevents regular users, such as yourself, from directly improving these templates. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 06:06, 19 March 2014 (EDT)

If you need some media to work on the "[[WikiFur:Comic of the Week|Comic of the Week]]" pages, you can peruse the [[WikiFur:Gallery (logos)|Wikifur media galleries]] if you need some logos/comic panels to flesh you articles. Just FYI, and hope this helps - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 04:05, 25 March 2014 (EDT)

== Spammers ==

We appreciate the effort you're putting into Wikifur, including helping clean up spam and vandalism. I wanted to make you aware that we have several admins who check the recent changes regularly, and if a new user creates a spam page or userpage with spam in it, we generally discover these and deal with them quickly, often in under an hour. When you blank these pages, it adds a couple extra steps for us in doing this, as we then have to pull up the page history to view the old version to confirm it's spam. So when it's new or very recent activity, please leave it alone.

If the spammer has modified or added to an existing non-spam page, go ahead and revert it. If it appears malicious or particularly egregious, use your judgment - we'll still catch it eventually and we won't be upset with you if it's not always what we would have done. Finally, if it appears we've overlooked one of these spam pages (especially if it's over 24 hours old and there is evidence of more recent admin activity), go ahead and blank or edit it - while we catch >99% of the spam/vandalism early on, occasionally something slips past our radar, so any activity that will float it to the top of the recent changes should bring it to our attention.

Again, thank you for your help and support. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 09:55, 28 March 2014 (EDT)

Just so you guys know, you were an Awful link of the day at somethingawful.com.
so... yeah
:We know. That was like an age ago though. At least in the edit history terms. So many vandalism attempts in a short time. It's been written in the [[History of WikiFur|WikiFur history]].

== New version discussion ==

I'm liking this look so far. :) Will wait to see a more complete version. ^^ Should also applogise maybe for withdrawing a little from the community but I still hop on everyday. ^_^; Just with Uni restarting, a recent programming project of my own that I'm working on and NaNoWriMo next month, I'm being a little busy to do more than basic RC monitoring. ^^; --[[User:Nidonocu|Nidonocu]] - [[User talk:Nidonocu|talk]] [[Image:Trans 168.png|16px|Nidonocu]] 08:05, 11 Oct 2005 (UTC)

:Thanks! And don't worry, we all have other commitments as well. :-) --{{UT|GreenReaper}} 13:51, 11 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I got tired of waiting with an [[WikiFur:Community Portal/Archive|obviously inadequate community portal]], so I decided to replace it now. Commends or just direct changes welcome! --{{UT|GreenReaper}} 06:40, 19 Oct 2005 (UTC)

== Help Desk ==

Should [[WikiFur:Help_Desk]] be on this page yet, or is someone waiting until it gets renamed? -- [[User:Siege|Siege]] 23:02, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

:Finding a definite name for it could probably take a while, so I don't think we should wait for that to happen first... The fact that it is indeed functional is what matters the most at any rate. :)

:Regarding where to put it though, I guess the 'Get involved!' box would do fine (although it's getting a bit long as it is) - if you don't have a better place in mind. --[[User:MKerris|MKerris]] 11:39, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Now that we've had a proper forum installed here, shouldn't we perhaps consider archiving and disabling the other help desk? I think it's a bit redundant having two such boards on this wiki, unless the community has exploded overnight or something :)

Thoughts, please? --[[User:MKerris|MKerris]] 21:53, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

:Probably a good idea. There are already plenty of other ways they can get help if the forum doesn't. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 00:06, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

::Ok, thanks - I'll just change the links that are currently pointing to it (that do not refer to any specific posts there) to lead to the forum instead, for a start. I'm not entirely sure what to do with the page itself, though, other than removing the header template... should it just be left as it is, or should there rather be some text at the top stating that "this page is no longer in use, and is archived for posterity" or some such? Also; if the latter is the most appropriate alternative, do we have a template to go for that? --[[User:MKerris|MKerris]] 02:39, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

== Popular pages ==

The [[Special:Popularpages|popular pages]] link doesn't seem to be working at this moment. [[User:SpazKitty|Spaz Kitty]] 10:39, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

:No, it does not work, and will not for the foreseeable future. Hit counting has been disabled on Wikia for performance reasons. If we want to know the popular pages, we have to use the [https://www.google.com/analytics/home/report?rid=52980 analytics stats]. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 14:10, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

== Does this page have a purpose? ==

It seems to me that the Community Central page here is used very little. Nor does it seem to be updated very often (with the possible exception of the new articles/categories bars) - the "latest" news story is from September 2006. We probably don't even need a news section here anymore thanks to the [[News:Front Page]] and overall the page is starting to look pretty outdated.

I personally doubt that many people even use this page that much anymore, preferring the more commonly updated Main Page.

I propose that the Community Central page have a group of people who specifically update it (or, if possible, write some scripts to automatically update parts, as seen on [[Template:WikiFur Central/WikiFur News]]) or - if this is considered a lot cause - to delete the page outright.

Thoughts? {{:User:Robomilk/sig}} 10:20, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

:Are you volunteering? :-) We have DPL now, which can do all sorts of things. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 04:52, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

:: Well, there's [[User:AlexanderGrey/ComCentral2|this random thing]] I made way back when I first proposed some changes. Could possibly be improved? :P {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 11:48, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

== Ok desu ka? ==

I've noticed that there's a lot of folks with pages here, some members, some not. I wanted to ask: What's the conditionals for having a page for yourself, as opposed to just your User::[user] page? --[[User:Copb.phoenix|Sar'ras Fae'lynn]] 04:44, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:WikiFur has no notability requirements, nor do we normally restrict people from editing articles about themselves. It is sufficient to merely be a member of the fandom, or of interest to furry fans for some other reason. If you wish to start the page about yourself, you are welcome to do so, though bear in mind that it can and probably will be edited by others. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 04:46, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::Oy. I'm only notable in a few small circles, but I actually just wanted to get a head start. I'll start at my UP and swap it when I've got together something presentable. --[[User:Copb.phoenix|Sar'ras Fae'lynn]] 04:56, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Brian Vermin: /* Gr8 weasel mentor */ new section

== Reinstatement ==

On discussion/suggestion with common third party, the ban for this account has been removed subject to future user behavior. And to cutoff counterproductive arguments before it gets out of hand. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 09:58, 15 March 2014 (EDT)

== Protection of templates ==

You suggested that {{tl|Featured article}} needs to be protected - why? Certainly, you can edit it, but that argument could be applied to every template, and indeed every page. As a practical matter, they have not been vandalized, probably because it would be rightly seen as a waste of time. Conversely, protection prevents regular users, such as yourself, from directly improving these templates. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 06:06, 19 March 2014 (EDT)

== Logos, other comic media ==

If you need some media to work on the "[[WikiFur:Comic of the Week|Comic of the Week]]" pages, you can peruse the [[WikiFur:Gallery (logos)|Wikifur media galleries]] if you need some logos/comic panels to flesh you articles. Just FYI, and hope this helps - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 04:05, 25 March 2014 (EDT)

== Spammers ==

We appreciate the effort you're putting into Wikifur, including helping clean up spam and vandalism. I wanted to make you aware that we have several admins who check the recent changes regularly, and if a new user creates a spam page or userpage with spam in it, we generally discover these and deal with them quickly, often in under an hour. When you blank these pages, it adds a couple extra steps for us in doing this, as we then have to pull up the page history to view the old version to confirm it's spam. So when it's new or very recent activity, please leave it alone.

If the spammer has modified or added to an existing non-spam page, go ahead and revert it. If it appears malicious or particularly egregious, use your judgment - we'll still catch it eventually and we won't be upset with you if it's not always what we would have done. Finally, if it appears we've overlooked one of these spam pages (especially if it's over 24 hours old and there is evidence of more recent admin activity), go ahead and blank or edit it - while we catch >99% of the spam/vandalism early on, occasionally something slips past our radar, so any activity that will float it to the top of the recent changes should bring it to our attention.

Again, thank you for your help and support. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 09:55, 28 March 2014 (EDT)

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

==History==

Encyclopedia Dramatica (originally also known as '''encyclopediadramatica.com''') is founded by '''Girlvinyl''' in December 2004 as a compendium of internet personalities, events and memes in response to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mediacrat|the deletion of the Mediacrat vanity page]] on [[Wikipedia]],{{fact}} created by [[LiveJournal]] e-celebrity [[W:User:Jameth|Jameth]] (who used to be an honorary administrator on the site.){{fact}}

=== End of ED.com ===

On April 14, 2011, ED.com's owners redirected encyclopediadramatica.com to '''OhInternet''' (ohinternet.com), a new website dedicated to documenting Internet culture while remaining "SFW" (safe for work). Girlvinyl stated:

{{Q|Shock for shock’s sake is old at this point and we’re looking forward to the future and how things are evolving … when you put user experience first, the language becomes highly important and that’s what we’ve done.}}

In October 2013, OhInternet was closed after vandals targeted it.

=== ED.ch troubles and domain loss ===

ED.ch went offline after the site's founder, [[W:LulzSec#Law_enforcement_response|Ryan Cleary]], was arrested for alledged affiliation to [[W:LulzSec|LulzSec]], the [[troll]] hacker group.<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/jun/22/ryan-cleary-charged-lulzsec-hacking ''Teenager Ryan Cleary charged over LulzSec hacking''] article on [http://www.guardian.co.uk/ The Guardian].

Retrieved ?.</ref>

In March of 2012, encyclopædiadramatica.ch suffered a brief downtime due to renewal complications with the domain registrars in Switzerland. While the database was secured, the site was not able to be accessed until '''encyclopediadramatica.se''' was purchased. Since then, encyclopædiadramatica.se is still working with the registrars to re-obtain the .ch domain.<ref>[http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.se/threads/encyclopedia-dramatica-is-now-encyclopediadramatica-se.7344/ Encyclopedia ''Dramatica is now encyclopediadramatica.se''] thread on the [http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.se/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se) forums].

Photos and personal data of some of the more prominent users were also revealed ([[W:Dox|Doxed]]), particularly user [[Zaiger]].{{fact}} Among other things, logs from the ED [[IRC]] channel that showed users in a negative light were posted.{{fact}}

=== ED.se domain loss ===

== Types of content ==
[[File:Ae-tan ED Mascot.jpg|right|thumb|Ae-tan, ED [[Mascot]].]]
Most ED articles avoid a "neutral point of view" and encourage sarcasm, hyperbole, and other kinds of 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 [[W:Supermarket_tabloid|tabloid]] and the [[W:Devil's Dictionary|Devil's Dictionary]].{{cn}} The only effective editorial requirements are that the content is legal and funny.{{fact}}

=== Article themes ===

* Criticism of Wikipedia, its editors, administrators, and policies
* The people, events, and culture of [[W: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 image-boards
* Mocking subcultures like emo, goths, [[furries]], and anyone the members consider to have an unwarranted case of self-importance{{cn}}
* Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary and criticism
* Purposeful misinformation

=== Images ===

Encyclopedia Dramatica has a large amount of [[pornography]] and shock images, including in advertisements on the sidebars.

== Controversy ==
=== Drama ===

The most common criticism of Encyclopedia Dramatica is that its purpose of documenting drama often resulted 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 appeared 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.{{cn}} Encyclopedia Dramatica relies on the [[fair use exception]] clauses of [[United States copyright law]] as a defense. Their [[Arbchat]] procedure was 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."{{fact}}

=== Privacy ===

The site often revealed personal information about ordinary people such as names, addresses, and phone numbers if found ([[W:Doxing|Doxxing]]).

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry ==

The ED.se site contains almost all old ED.com, ED.ch and ED.es articles documenting the [[furry fandom]] and [[furry]]-related topics. The ED.se "[[Furfag|FurFaggotry]] Portal"<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Portal:Furfaggotry Portal:FurFaggotry] on [http://encylclopediadramatica.se/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se)]. Retrieved ?.</ref> was once maintained by EDitors<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Special:ListUsers/Editors ED.se editor list] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved June 7, 2013.</ref> [[Equivamp]] and '''Notanalt''', and former [[administrator]] [[Schnookums]].<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/User:Zaiger/Encyclopedia_Dramatica:Caretakers#Furfaggotry ''Encyclopedia Dramatica:Caretakers''] page on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved November 13, 2013.</ref><ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/index.php?title=User:Schnookums&oldid=684646 ''This User is M.I.A.''] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved November 1, 2014.</ref>

The site's material on furries is generally unflattering and some is intentionally offensive. However, not all of its users are [[anti-furry]], and ED claims it only makes broad generalizations of the [[furry fandom]] and portrays furries as sexual deviants because it is more humorous and interesting to read about something scandalous and shocking.{{fact}}

Furries are generally not picked out from editing as long as they follow the site's policies and refrain from vandalizing.<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Template:Furry/Welcome Furry "Welcome" template] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Dated September 14, 2012. Retrieved November 1, 2014.</ref>Besides criticizing the fandom in general, some furries use the site to criticize specific individuals or groups, particularly ones who they feel make furries look bad, or to make private drama very public and persistent.<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Cigarskunk Cigarskunk article] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Dated June 30, 2011. Retrieved November 1, 2014.</ref>

Still other furries put a redeemingly "fun spin" on an aspect of the fandom that could attract negative coverage:

For instance, furry [[author]] [[Royal-Sovereign]] wrote an extensive article on the [[Transformation]] fetish, which he has admitted to be one of his favorite [[paraphilia|sexual diversions]]. Rather than conform to the acerbic vitriol generally seen on the site, Royal-Sovereign utilized a distinctly tongue-in-cheek tone, satirizing both the [[fetish]] and, therefore, himself:
{{Q|Like alcohol, transformation is a "gateway" drug (er, fetish) for people on the Internet, making normal people into zoophiles or worse, like finding newfound pleasure in bukkake or anal rape - all of which can be found in copious amounts throughout Transformation stories and art. Fapping too much to Transformation stuff can lead to horrifying self-discoveries about what turns you on sexually.|4=[[Royal-Sovereign]] a.k.a. RoyalShitbrick|5="Transformation"}}

Similarly, user [[Brian Vermin|Vermin]] authored the [[Paw fetish|Foot Fetish]] and Aquaphilia articles to lampoon other types of fetishes which are also present in the furry fandom. While Vermin is not an aquaphiliac himself, he is an asphxiaphiliac with a foot fetish, so this was likewise his way of satirizing both the fetishes and himself.

The original ED.com was often used as staging ground for massive [[troll]]ing or [[spam]]ming crusades against a certain furry and sites deemed particularly perverted or offensive,{{cn}} and ED 'raids' had forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[DeviantArt]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{cn}} Notable victims of this practice are [[Straitfox|InSaNe-REYNARD]] and [[Snapesnogger]], both artists who were driven off DeviantArt.{{cn}}

== Types of content ==
[[File:Ae-tan ED Mascot.jpg|right|thumb|Ae-tan, ED [[Mascot]].]]
Most ED articles avoid a "neutral point of view" and encouraged sarcasm, hyperbole, and other kinds of mocking the article's subject; they are not required to be referenced or have any basis in fact. It had been compared to an internet version of a [[W:Supermarket_tabloid|tabloid]] and the [[W:Devil's Dictionary|Devil's Dictionary]].{{cn}} The only effective editorial requirements were that the content was legal and funny.{{fact}}

=== Article themes included ===

* Criticism of Wikipedia, its editors, administrators, and policies
* The people, events, and culture of [[W: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]] [[image-board]]s
* Mocking subcultures like [[emo]], [[goths]], [[furries]], and anyone the members consider to have an unwarranted case of self-importance{{cn}}
* Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary and criticism
* Purposeful misinformation

=== Images ===

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

== Controversy ==
=== Drama ===

The most common criticism of Encyclopedia Dramatica is that its purpose of documenting drama often resulted 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 appeared 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.{{cn}} Encyclopedia Dramatica relies on the [[fair use exception]] clauses of [[United States copyright law]] as a defense. Their [[Arbchat]] procedure was 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."{{fact}}

=== Privacy ===

The site often revealed personal information about ordinary people such as names, addresses, and phone numbers if found ([[W:Doxing|Doxxing]]).

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry ==

The ED.se site contains almost all old ED.com, ED.ch and ED.es articles documenting the [[furry fandom]] and [[furry]]-related topics. The ED.se "[[Furfag|FurFaggotry]] Portal"<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Portal:Furfaggotry Portal:FurFaggotry] on [http://encylclopediadramatica.se/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se)]. Retrieved ?.</ref> was once maintained by EDitors<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Special:ListUsers/Editors ED.se editor list] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved June 7, 2013.</ref> [[Equivamp]] and '''Notanalt''', and former [[administrator]] [[Schnookums]].<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/User:Zaiger/Encyclopedia_Dramatica:Caretakers#Furfaggotry ''Encyclopedia Dramatica:Caretakers''] page on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved November 13, 2013.</ref><ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/index.php?title=User%3ASchnookums&action=historysubmit&diff=546220&oldid=542118 ''This User is M.I.A.''] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved June 7, 2013.</ref>

The site's material on furries is generally about what's considered the worst of the [[fandom]], and like most articles on the site, it is intentionally offensive, and many users 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 editing as long as they followed the site's policies and refrained from vandalizing.{{fact}} Besides criticizing the fandom in general, some furries use the site to criticize specific individuals or groups, particularly ones whom they feel make furries look bad, or to make private drama very public and persistent.{{cn}}

Still other furries wish to put a redeemingly "fun spin" on an aspect of the fandom{{clarify}} which could easily fall into disrepute or gain copious amounts of negative coverage.

For instance, furry [[author]] [[Royal-Sovereign]] wrote an extensive article on the [[Transformation]] fetish, which he has admitted to be one of his favorite [[paraphilia|sexual diversions]]. Rather than conform to the acerbic vitriol generally seen on the site, Royal-Sovereign utilised a distinctly tongue-in-cheek tone, satirising both the [[fetish]] and, therefore, himself:
{{Q|Like alcohol, transformation is a "gateway" drug (er, fetish) for people on the Internet, making normal people into zoophiles or worse, like finding newfound pleasure in bukkake or anal rape - all of which can be found in copious amounts throughout Transformation stories and art. Fapping too much to Transformation stuff can lead to horrifying self-discoveries about what turns you on sexually.|4=[[Royal-Sovereign]] a.k.a. RoyalShitbrick|5="Transformation"}}

The original ED.com was often used as staging ground for massive [[troll]]ing or [[spam]]ming crusades against a certain furry and sites deemed particularly perverted or offensive,{{cn}} and ED 'raids' had forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[DeviantArt]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{cn}} Notable victims of this practice are [[Straitfox|InSaNe-REYNARD]] and [[Snapesnogger]], both artists who were driven off DeviantArt.{{cn}}

Brian Vermin: Re: Equivamp

== References? ==

I see the <nowiki>{{unref}}</nowiki> template was placed at the top of this article, and the requested citations are next to my legal name, birth year, and current residence. I, the subject of the article, provided that information personally. How do I go about proving who I am and where I live to appease these requests? I'm not going to upload a photo of my driver's license... lol.

I've seen other articles edited by their subjects where these tags weren't placed after the info they personally volunteered, so what must be done to have them removed from mine?

Also, on a side note, if anyone reading this has the ability to rename my user account from "Brian vermin" to "Brian Vermin," it will be appreciated.

== Bots ==

Is there anyway to have a bot put ContributorU on user pages, at least the ones with a matching article name? Or, perhaps, one that puts welcome templates on the talk pages of new users? [[File:Scalesona.jpg|40x40px]][[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 19:53, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
:Both of those are technically feasible, but the first would require writing a bot script and assumes they are the same person, while I'm not sure the second is a good idea in general. Welcomes are at best rather impersonal if you have a bot do them, and at worst end up looking stupid when you start welcoming vandals (faking the last admin to edit signing it only makes it worse, as seen at Wikia). --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 20:01, 22 June 2011 (EDT)
::All right. Just a thought I had and thought I'd ask about. [[File:Scalesona.jpg|40x40px]][[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 20:13, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

== Questions ==

What do you define the difference between a [[fursuit]] and an [[wikipedia:animal costume|animal costume]]? The subject has come up at [[wikipedia:Talk:Fursuit#Explanation of edits undone|Wikiepdia's fursuit article]], but I'm a rather poor debater, and feel my opinion is pretty closed-minded. My opinion is that a fursuit is only a fursuit if associated with furry, otherwise, it's an animal or mascot costume. However, I know that some feel an animal costume is a fursuit, and the two are synonymous. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on this. [[File:Scalesona.jpg|40x40px]][[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 12:43, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

:As it happens I was already reading that discussion. I think my response would be much the same as yours - certainly, animal costumes existed, but they were not used for the same reasons, nor (apparently) called the same thing. I might respond there, but I'm a little busy at work now. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 12:49, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

Also, whenever I try to edit a section or add a new section, the wiki tries to replace the entire text with the section. Any thoughts on why this is? It may have something to do with the fact that I am using Internet Explorer, which gives me problems in general on this Wiki. [[File:Scalesona.jpg|40x40px]][[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 12:45, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

:What version of IE is it? Does it happen if you do turn off the advanced editing functions in [[Special:Preferences|preferences]] so that you no longer have the WikiEditor toolbar showing? --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 12:49, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

+ ::It's the newest version. The only difference between the newest version and the older one (which I used on my PC) is that this allows me to edit, as long as I do not scroll down the page, whereas the older would simply lock up my computer if I even went to an edit page. The only way I am able to edit on this laptop I often use is by typing without scrolling too much, and then clicking the "Changes" tab, where it allows me to scroll down to click save.

== Altering/deleting species profile ==

After a few years of it being there, I suddenly found a user "Spirou" putting my Monoceros page up for deletion. When I undid his edit and asked why, he deleted it in its entirety and replaced it with a 'redirect'.

Just curious why I was singled out. Or are all http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Category:Fictional_species pages due to to be similarly deleted/redirected if any single WikiFur editor decides that a 'custom species' isn't to his or her liking? If you're nuking all of them, then no worries, I understand. But if it's just this page, I'd really like to know why.

There are multiple monoceri played online, and yes, I've referred others (esp. on SpheresMU*) to that page for reference. Just because no others of them are WikiFur members with their own page yet doesn't mean that the fictional species entry for monoceri should be deleted. Some fairness or explanation would be highly appreciated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Tugrik|Tugrik]] ([[User talk:Tugrik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Tugrik|contribs]]) .

Well, I talked to him. Nothing was really accomplished, however. He accused me of attacking him when I was merely asking why he wanted the section removed, which he didn't give a clear answer to. He said he didn't want people googling his name to find out about FA, so I suggested not indexing it, which you've apparently done. However, he then said it was pointless to have the article at all if Google can't find it, to which the only solution is personal exclusion, but he didn't want that either. Then he ''did'' want it. He seemed to have changed his mind again by the ''end'' of the discussion, and said the information was inaccurate. I advised him to correct it, then threatened to blank it immediately after. All the while making passive aggressive insults and threatening to tattle on me to you for "bringing drama" and telling me I'm lucky he didn't have me banned, despite having done nothing wronf. In fact, I was more polite than usual. Also, you apparently "told him about me" but I don't know what you said. All in all, it only managed to shave a few years off my lifespan, because I still don't know what he wants or what happened. So, I was wondering if you could explain to me what I'm supposed to do/have done, or talk to him yourself. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 17:40, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

== RBW boat party notice ==

Hi GreenReaper,

That's actually a very good point - it seems to be a UKFur issue. If you go here : http://forum.ukfur.org/forum/86-ukfur-events/, and look at the RBW forum 'last updated' thing on the right, it (currently) says 124 topics, but the forum itself is only showing 3 pinned topics.... I've PM'd the admins about it and I'm waiting on the response. In the meantime, you can search the UKFur boards, using "RBW boat party" (minus the quotes) as search criteria, and the article is (currently) the 4th one down. The actual comment from Miyabi (aka sneppid) is post #19 and reads as follows:

''We've sortof dropped the ball on this – we're all quite enjoying the time off; not having massive heart palpitations and not being plunged into huge personal debt is a really nice feeling :3 We're also pretty busy managing LF stuff (well, most of us are, anyway). We'll probably make an official announcement soon but for the time being don't hold your breath for a 2011 boat party – think 2012 instead. We couldn't get the Erasmus at all for the dates we wanted this year, which wouldn't be a huge problem but we'd like to keep the vessel the same. Sorry about the radio silence, but will keep you posted re: 2012.''

So, no "official" announcement generally available, no. If that changes, I'll update the article (assuming you're happy with this as a reference - I can email you a screenshot if you like. :) [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 05:15, 2 August 2011 (EDT)

==Furnal Equinox Edits by Non-Directors/ConCom==

Hey Green, We've all been through this before. dan skunk is reversing edits on the page, after I removed the "see other/danskunk" and he placed it back. With me removing again. As a director of the convention and concom, speaking with others on said places. We do not wish his wikifur linked from our page article. He has mention in the article and that is enough, he has and still continues to cause problems for us, including many threatening e-mails sent to myself and other directors of the convention in the last few months. We would appreciate if he was blocked from editing our page, or our page was locked from edits, except from anyone of the directors. Scani, Myself, Blindsight, Pakesh or Arctic. At the least I'd like dan skunk to be prevented from editing our page. We don't need more issues then we already have with him and his problems.

Shane Nicholson
Director/ConCom - Furnal Equinox

:Perhaps it's poor form for me to interject on user talk pages, but I noticed this change had felt compelled to jump in because you're asking for administrative lockdowns on this article. Generally, I feel it is not appropriate policy for pages to be locked down to a whitelist of official authors who can contribute. I help run a convention, so I have a similar perspective about public perceptions and controlling impressions. We do this through our convention website, and I think that's the appropriate place for controlled messages and positive promotional text. Our event, like yours, has had a turbulent past that got us to where we are today, and while history isn't always positive or engendering of those presently organizing an event, convention, website, etc., it's an important part of the history of the event, but also, often for the regional fandom at large. If items are added which are true facts, written in a NPOV, and are referenced according to standard, even if they cast an event in a contentious or less than positive light, they're part of a total perspective an encyclopedic article deserves. I noticed the tremendous amount of edits/reverts/reedits/talk page notes that have been going on about your event, and I can't find evidence that Dan is "trolling" in any usual sense, though I certainly understand how you might wish him to not publish his edits as associated with your event. However, I think to be true to it's intended form, that's a concession we have to allow to keep Wikifur credible and in a long-term sense, truly useful. I don't believe anyone should be granted a privileged status as to what an article should say because they are elected or appointed to organize the subject matter being discussed. At the very least, I would recommend that if Dan puts up something you find untruthful, the references be questioned and researched by uninvolved parties, and consensus is reached before edits/reverts are made. Until that happens, even if you were exclusive granted access to maintain the article, it would no longer be credible, it would simply be promotional without community consensus and involvement.

== Article wikifur.com/Fritter ==

GreenReaper,

As of Monday, the 12th of September 2011, my charges have been unconditionally withdrawn by the Crown and Court of Ontario, Canada. On that note, I would like to request my personal information be removed from my article page without threat of moderators such as AshleyAshes re-adding such information. In addition, I would like the note of any mention of the charge be removed, as it now poses as a threat to my future in both personal and professional stances. If you require any written proof, I am in the process of gathering the documentation from the courts and my lawyer notating that the matter has been resolved outright.

In addition, I would like to file a complaint against your moderator AshleyAshes, for personally bringing it upon himself to see that my reputation be tarnished, even after the criminal charge has been dropped. He played the entire matter as though I was guilty from the instant I was picked up, and appears to believe it is still the case though my charge has been dropped. I would like to politely speak with you in private on this matter further, so that these issues may be resolved as cleanly and respectfully as possible. It has been a difficult past 6 months, and I would like to do my best to keep those past 6 months under wraps for the future.

[[User:Fritter|Fritter]] 20:57, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

:Hi Fritter. I am glad to hear that you have apparently resolved this matter. As the information we have is backed by a published news article, some form of reference or document proving what you have said would be appreciated. If it can be proven, I am personally open to removal of the topic from the article about you; however, as we act on consensus and have not faced this exact situation before, I'll sound out the feelings of other editors on the [[Talk:Fritter|discussion page]].

:You might consider contacting the newspaper which originally covered this story to ask them to print an update. I also would be glad to update the [http://www.flayrah.com/3490/furry-fritter-charged-possession-child-pornography Flayrah article on this topic], and/or to post a new story there of equal prominence mentioning the withdrawal of the charges.

:[[User:AshleyAshes|AshleyAshes]] is not a [[WikiFur:Colleagues|WikiFur colleague/curator]] and does not represent the site in any capacity beyond that of a contributor. He also has no more or less power than you have - well, OK, ''technically'' there are a couple of things he can do because your account is new as of yesterday, but he has not been granted any special powers. We encourage all editors to ensure that articles are accurate and comprehensive, although in this case I would have preferred to see an attempt to confirm the information provided rather than immediately remove it.

:In the future, I suggest using the "summary box" above the save page button to provide an explanation of the motivation for your edits to other editors. This will appear on the [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Fritter&action=history history page] as a brief explanation of the edit. Without it, it can be tricky to deal with situations like user A adding information X to an article, user B removing it for a reason in line with wiki guidelines (e.g. a lack of a citation), and user A then adding it in again without giving any response to B's reasoning.

:You are welcome to [[WikiFur:IRC|talk to me in the #wikifur chat room]], or to [[Special:EmailUser/GreenReaper|email me]], but please bear in mind that I am relocating to Texas this weekend and may be away packing up boxes.

== Question about terms. ==

Hello, I'm Targal and EvilDragon. you should know me already, as I was sometime in IRC.

:Hi there! Sorry for the slow reply, I've been busy recently in [[real life]] . . .

1.
Rante has made classification about furry. as I saw it, but his term in the word explaining classification looks something weird.
so I question you looks whether it something uncomfortable or not.

I guess You should know these codes can be seen well on a book of libraries.

http://hellodragon.tistory.com/41

I think It'll be better if they're revised as latin-ous.

:I do not particularly like codes as they are inflexible. For example, it says there that my character has a human body . . . but it is half the height of a human, and in fact the stance is more forward-leaning. It also appears to be redundant to define "divisions" if you have defined "detailed divisions" as it can be calculated from that. Overall, I would ask what is the use of such classification? On WikiFur, we use words, and it works well enough, I think.

2.
is the word "furry" literary style?

this meaning is that the word "Kemono" in Japanese can ba hardly written on novels, because it's something inproper. but the word "Jyujin" having a similar meaning to Kemono is used often than "Kemono" on novels.
likewise the word "suin" in Korean meaning furry and jyujin is also used on a novels, but it's so informal term only used on internet products that it can be written hardly on formal words. (but 'suin' is available half on novels)
for example, you have to write 'yiffy' as 'adult furry things' on a formal paper, because 'yiffy' is a slang.

so, I wonder whether the word 'furry' can be used like that or not.

:"Furry" is an informal term; you will not find it in any official dictionaries . . . yet. It is however used by many conventions and artists to describe themselves. If you want a more formal term for the characters which we focus on, I would suggest "[cartoon] anthropomorphic animal". --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 00:00, 3 October 2011 (EDT)

==People to Add==
Hello GR, 
I wonder if you could suggest a direction for the [[:Category:People/People_to_add|People to Add]] list? In particular, what should be done with names that defy a reasonable amount of research? Take "Susan Gui" or "John T Baptist", for example. Neither have any mention within WikiFur, and Google searches combined with obvious words like "furry", "furries", "fursona", "anthropomorphic", etc, produce no relevant hits. Neither do Google Groups searches or trying to guess a Fur Affinity account name.

Should such names be left, or removed?--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 17:25, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

:I'd suggest removing them, on the basis that placement on the list is only useful if other people know who you're talking about.

== Interesting archive splitting ==

I noticed your separate Admin/Policy + Technical + General categories for your archives. That is neat but it makes me wonder, does it add more work to archiving? Like do you look at each topic one by one and decide where you want to put it? So eventually, the order they are displayed in when split looks different from how they initially appeared in sequence when first posted? I thought about the possibility of adding month-parent single = cats but that is only for standard methods and would clearly overcomplicate in addition to this trinity division. [[User talk:Tyciol|Ty]] 04:29, 29 October 2011 (EDT)
:Yes. It is more work; I do it because I am in a unique situation as many policy decisions and technical questions have been answered on my talk page, and it may be necessary for people to look through the archives to determine the historical basis for a decision (or just to get a general feel for the site's history). This makes it easier for them, as there's less to read through. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 04:37, 29 October 2011 (EDT)

Hi, I was talking with someone and they mentioned that there was a link on Timothy Albee's page here on Wikifur that pointed to my page on FurAffinity, (furaffinity.net/user/dreamsong).

While Tim and I were close for years, we were never _that_ close.

I was wondering if someone could change that link? (I think his FurAffinity page is still there under TimothyAlbee.)

Thanks!
Dreamsong

:Sure; the updated page is at [[Timothy Albee]]. Note that you can edit most pages on WikiFur, even without an account. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 18:18, 22 January 2012 (EST)

== Username blacklist thing ==

Can we forbid Weweesky as part of a username? It'd cut out a few of the having to immediately block as expected spammer accounts I'd like to think.

:We do have it (our extensions are listed at [[Special:Version]]), but it was disabled. I've enabled it now, so [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist]] should work.

== Personal Exclusion ==

I was wondering if I could have my wiki-thing, Sparky15756, blanked? I'm intending to edit it at a later date but for now I'd rather have it blanked as it's just an egotistical page that I made a few years ago and would rather it not see the light of day (anymore). But I'd like to keep my account on here for when I finally get around re-editing my wiki-article.

~15756
:Since the reason seems to be more that you didn't like the current article rather than the idea of ''any'' article, I had a go at editing it. Please [[Sparky15756|take a look]] and tell me if you still wish to be excluded.

==Re-inclusion==

Hey again, I was wondering if it's possible to unblank and re-include my article? I've prepared a pre-made article for if/when my article can be edited.

~Sparky15756

:Sure. I've removed the exclusion and restored the last version; it is now open for editing. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 20:15, 29 March 2013 (EDT)

==Edit and Lock==
I'd like to request an edit and lock of my article on the grounds that I'm tired of two (unnamed) curators targeting my article with edits upon edits, one even threatening to block me from editing my page because I spoke out against them and even received word that I'm not allowed to talk about them on Twitter.

Hi there, I've been doing a little editing and article pruning recently, and was wondering if you could delete the histories for my userpage, and article.

== Help with Babysitting Cream? ==

Thanks for the welcome. I could use some help with the Babysitting Cream page, which is marked as needing to be wikified to match the Furry Book of Style. Whoever put that macro there, I'm not sure what they want fixed. (Aside perhaps from more citations, but the original author has explained the shortage of cites and I'm not sure I can improve on it much.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:APDamien|APDamien]] ([[User talk:APDamien|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/APDamien|contribs]]) .

:Hmm. There is [[Talk:Babysitting Cream|some discussion]] of that work already. My view is that the topic is suitable, but it's not a good encyclopedia article. It reads more like a game guide. The choice of the section headers "How to play" and "Strategy" and the constant use of "you" are particularly telling. Description of the gameplay is appropriate, but less in the form of "here's what ''you should do''", and more "here's what happens if ''the player does'' X". The article also contains uncited personal opinions about how the game should be improved, stated as fact. If someone has given such an opinion elsewhere, it could be included but should be cited and attributed to them.

== Page Reversion. (Unexclusion) ==

*After much consideration I would like the page back on track.
*I would however like to get solitary priveleges to change the page info.
*This is because other people have constantly changed it in the past, which let to its demise (and my temporary ban), updating it with incorrect info and details I myself corrected over time and time again.
*It seriously gets on your nerves after a while. I know Wikifur is a place where 'everyone' can contribute and I like\endorse that, but after seeing the disasters that can occur: page protection surely is a luxury.
*Sure, I would've liked it otherwise, but it seems some people (trolls in particular) can't handle that kind of freedom.

== Unexclusion request ==

Kraaa!

For reasons similar to those of BillyTheCat128 above, I had requested an exclusion, most likely because I had self-edited my page (and I also wanted the history to be purged). However, I now would be interested in seeing how WikiFur editors see me. I would like the [[Diti]] page to be recreated, so I would be happy if you “unblocked” the page (or make it a “red link”)! Thank you! [[User:Diti|Diti]] [[User talk:Diti|the penguin]] — 04:40, 18 August 2012 (EDT)

== Babysitting Cream thumbnails ==

It appears that you provided specific thumbnails for the article on the Babysitting Cream game. However, one of the thumbnails was never uploaded (or had the wrong filename), resulting in an ugly bar for the missing image, and the other image was from an earlier version of the game.

I have replaced these using the standard "thumb" feature of the Wiki image reference, allowing the software to generate the thumb by the default method. If you want to rebuild the thumbs, this is a reminder that they are there. [[User:APDamien|APDamien]] 14:13, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

Oh, and thank you for replacing my incorrect version of the start page with a correct one. But... the way you did it doesn't get a full-size image when you click on it, only the thumbnail (with a link to the full image if you look for it). I don't understand how this thumb= stuff works well enough to fix it, so I'll just leave it up to you instead of reverting -- I hate reverts and will only do them for obvious vandalism or where the editor clearly didn't understand the purpose of the article/section. [[User:APDamien|APDamien]] 15:03, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

:Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The thumbnail was deleted because the software listed it as unused and another editor thought it was superfluous. I have noted its use on the file page. The thumbnails are used because indexed PNG thumbs are much more efficient than the full-colour ones made by default. I did a bit more digging and found that I can force a manual link as well as a thumb, so that should work nicely now.

:As for the earlier version image, I replaced it with what I consider to be the "title" screen, which is equivalent to an earlier version of the image. The warning screen might be included too, as a separate image but it seems a little superfluous - maybe just a mention in the text, if anything? (If you can't see anything useful in a thumbnail, it's probably not a good image to use.) --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 15:11, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

== Policy on self-editing? Just asking for clarification... ==

Hey there. I'm Kashi Commodore, one of the newer associate developers hired to work on Furcadia. A long-time Furc player and Beekin, I've now joined the team at DEP.

I have my own article, which was self-edited to an extent to correct inaccuracies. And I suppose it might be prudent to update it given my new position. That thought has highlighted an idea..

I see a few factual inaccuracies in Furcadia related articles which I'd be happy to correct. Of course, that would be 'self-editing' in a sense and wanted to clarify what the policy is on that. I'm not a marketer or salesperson, and am happy to attempt to cite official sources where possible. But I wouldn't want to invalidate the encyclopaedic purity of the site - merely correct a few errors. I could see how I would not be regarded as impartial. I'm not sure if I can say I would be an 'official' source myself, but I'm certainly as official as you are likely to get, which has it's own pros and cons of course. I could provide examples of what 'inaccuracies' I refer to if that helps.

I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Kashicommodore|Kashicommodore]] ([[User talk:Kashicommodore|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kashicommodore|contribs]]) .

:Hi Kashi! At WikiFur we recognize that sometimes the best sources of information are those closest to the action. As such, we welcome such edits as long as they comply with the general policy on neutrality. There should be little problem with correcting questions of fact; if it starts getting into what you see as misconceptions of DEP policy or actions, it might be best to mention and reference examples of user views as well as the company's own position. In any case, we'd certainly prefer that you continue to do so under your own name, and to explain your reasons for changes in the summary box (or on the attached discussion page if necessary). --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 15:02, 15 September 2012 (EDT)

== Editing protection ==

The edits in question are indeed large, other curators have used this method to prevent editing while making theirs, the pages are only 80% finished, I am not receiving comment on the future status of disambiguation pages, and i'm not using this template as my sole property toy, but to prevent the hanging data from being disturbed until the final edit.

This was done with [[Kitsune]] and [[Vixen]], and after being finished and unprotected, users started to modify the entries as normal. The changes are time consuming, long, tedious and a pain to enter one by one. Common courtesy during a curators edit would be appreciated - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:08, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

However,a friend of mine posted another question in the eng forum but none has answered yet.

== Editing the Homepage ==

Hello Greenreaper! I'm Valery91Thunder from the italian Wikifur. I'm working with a friend of mine (Escofal, he wrote to you before) to replenish and update the Italian part of the Wiki. We're currently working on adding new pages, but we'd also like to change the layout of our homepage, which is currently looking like this: http://it.wikifur.com/wiki/Pagina_principale . We'd like to create something more resembling to this: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/WikiFur_Furry_Central . Do you have any useful tips and tricks, or pheraps a link to a tutorial that shows us the best way to modify these pages? We're new, so we're still trying to learn the majority of the code. Thanks anticipate for your interest, we'll be waiting for your kind answer. :) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:79.3.154.44|79.3.154.44]] ([[User talk:79.3.154.44|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/79.3.154.44|contribs]]) .

:Hi Valery! I'm glad you want to develop the front page. Unfortunately there is no manual for them in particular - you have to click "edit" and see what is done - but [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Contents|MediaWiki has a manual]] - in fact there are [[Wikipedia:Help:Wikipedia: The Missing Manual/Introduction|several]].

:On the English WikiFur, we have locked the front page, and are using a feature called [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Templates|template inclusion]] so that the content of the front page is on other pages. Basically, anything like <nowiki>{{WikiFur Central/Something}} is actually at [[Template:WikiFur Central/Something]]</nowiki>. This makes it harder for people to edit it, which is both good and bad . . . we also have the front page sections rotate each week (with edit links to the appropriate week).

:Parts of the front page are on [[Template:WikiFur Central/Header]], [[en:Template:WikiFur Central/Featured]], [[Template:WikiFur Central/Comic of the Week]], [[Template:Upcoming events]], [[Template:WikiFur Central/Flayrah]], [[Template:Did you know]], [[Template:WikiFur Central/FeaturedPicture]], [[Template:Furpile]], [[Template:WikiFur Central/Footer]] and [[Template:WikiFur Central/MetaLinks]]. Most are protected to avoid vandalism (although to varying levels), because English gets a lot of it. There are also versions for screens which are [[WikiFur Furry Central/800|800px]], [[WikiFur Furry Central/650|650px]] and [[WikiFur Furry Central/480|480px]] wide, which have their own templates or re-order them.

:This is probably more complex than we need, and almost certainly more than ''you'' need. Given the size of the community, I would suggest that you consider it a "front page to furry fandom". What would someone new to the fandom want to learn? What Italian-languages resources, in particular, are useful? You can link to major topics, to categories - whatever you have available now. (One example along these lines is [[Wikipedia:Portal:Furry|Portal:Furry on Wikipedia]].)

:I suggest that you don't commit yourself to making sections that you will have to update all the time, especially if only a few people can edit it. If you want a featured section, that's fine - but make it one that you can leave for a few weeks if necessary. There is less chance of deliberate vandalism here. Don't be afraid to link to content elsewhere - if there are popular Italian podcasts/shows/news with RSS feeds, you can display links to them, [[Template:WikiFur Central/Flayrah|like we do for Flayrah]].

:I would also suggest looking at our [[WikiFur:Community Central|Community Central]] page ([{{fullurl:WikiFur:Community Central|action=edit}} source]), and mixing some of this type of material on your front page - as you do with the "new pages" section - because it encourages contribution to these articles, and it is automatically generated. Some of the sections there use [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:DynamicPageList (third-party)|DynamicPageList]]. This is a powerful but complex tool. Try it out, but don't expect it to do exactly what you want straight away! --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 20:56, 11 November 2012 (EST)

::Hey there! Thanks for the quick reply, this is a lot of info indeed! I'll start looking at the pages you've linked soon, and your suggestion of doing a simpler page instead of a more "real-life updated" one was exactly in my thoughts. We had in mind to add some links to the major furry forums in there in case some new furs wanted a place to meet people and talk. :) Thank you again!

== Protecting the Homepage ==

Hi GreenReaper, it's Valery91Thunder again from the Italian WikiFur, sorry to bother you ^^"
We've successfully managed to edit the homepage, adding a new layout to it, more informations, and so on. We plan on creating the Community Portal as well, soon.
We had another hacker/bot attack, though, that re-edited the homepage. I've managed to restore our version, but still, it's utterly unpleasant seeing our page being changed like that. :( So we finally decided we should add protection to the homepage, but I think, as I'm only a normal user, that I don't have the permissions to do that.
Is there a way, or someone, that we can contact to do it for us?
Thank you again for your time and kindness. :)
:I have protected the main page against edits by anonymous or recently-registered users, and I have granted yourself and Escofal access as colleagues/sysops, since you are the active users at this time.

== Hello, need help deleting a page? ==

Hi there, I made myself a page a while back under my username/character name 'Conjure'. I am no longer part of the fandom and have also changed my real name used in the article here. I would not like this info to be posted publicly anymore as it is irrelevant now. Is there any way you could help me delete it? Im not sure if you need proof or anything it is me, but i do use my real email on here and I have a facebook if need be.

Thanks!

Hi.

I don't know if it's just me, but I'm having a couple of issues with images not displaying properly - such as the first image in the [[Furball Run]] article, and the 4th poster in the [[LondonFurs]] article (2012 summer party). Other images, even other ones in the same articles, are displaying ok so I'm not quite sure what's going on... [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 15:59, 13 February 2013 (EST)

:Yes; these issues appear to affect up to 2/13 of images on WikiFur (and Flayrah/the Yerf Archive). They impact users differently depending on location - for example, I can see all the images you mention, but I am not able to see various other images on [[WikiFur:Gallery (characters)]]. I have a ticket on file with CloudFlare. For now, please proceed as if the images were in place, as they should show up later once the issue is resolved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 16:13, 13 February 2013 (EST)

2011 under April I can't see the danish article about furries

P1 is a danish radio station run by the state media DR.
The article name = Eng: Cool, nice and naughty furries, dk: Fede, flotte og frække furries
The air time was/is called Klubværelset(eng: Club room)
I was look to add it myself, but it seems a bit to complex for me.
I don't want to accidentally mess up the page.

When you have time, can you or one of the mods check out the changes I have made to: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Danish_furries
Will my changes meet the wikifur standards, or do I need to change some of it?!
I want to make it good.

Will it also still need to be marked: ''This article does not cite its references or sources. You can help WikiFur by adding references.'' and ''The use of time in this article lacks definition. Dates should be used instead of words like "today" and "currently".''

== MrFoxyPaws ==

Hi and thanks for your comments:

''It is not necessary to use a qualifier such as "(series)" if there is no ambiguity. That said, I don't disagree with the use in this particular case, because it clarifies that it is a series of works.
Bear in mind that editors may choose to merge articles about creative works back into the article about their creator if there is no evidence that they have a significant following of their own (e.g. through publication). Not saying this will happen, just don't be surprised if you see it. --GreenReaper(talk) 18:24, 25 May 2013 (EDT)''

I created 'Boo and Kye' without (series) but reckoned that in the future it was likely there could be ambiguity over 'Frodo' as somebody may create another character of that name; or, equally, a 'Frodo' page might one day cover my fictional character whereas the (series) one would cover the series. So I kinda hovered between using (series) and not using it.

You're right my stories don't have a large following - is it better for me to try and fold them back now? although i'm not totally sure of the formatting for that. I'm more than happy to have a go. I did wonder about this point. I guess that i thought / hoped the number of stories, and that they are a series (with the cast of characters) would lend them some credibility. Also, they're at least of reasonable quality in terms of grammar and spelling etc because that's an interest of mine, having proof-read a novel for a friend. But i'm new to wikifur so happy to follow the guidelines. [[User:Foxypaws|MrFoxyPaws]]
:I'd say leave it as it is if you're comfortable with it now; if anyone feels the need to merge them later, hopefully they'll deal with it without removing any useful information. We most often do this when there is a true "stub" article that will never be of a significant size, just a few lines, but consistency can be a factor as well.

I am new here, somebody made a stub of me here but with wrong information. Trying to be less solitary, I think that maybe I need to correct the page by myself. I just finished so I hope you can check it and approve it or else. My changes do not show in my friends machines but only for me. :(

I hope you can check the page and help me with this. Thank you in advance! :) Pd. this is the page [[Lobocursor_Lyceus]]

-- Lobocursor

:Hi Lobocursor. Thanks for taking the time to contribute to WikiFur! Editors have already had at the article, but here's a few comments:
*[[:File:Lyceus Wikifur.jpg]] doesn't mention who the artist is, which we would like to do. If it is by you, just adding "by himself" is fine.
*We generally don't mention copyright of a character because it is implicit. (Registered trademarks do get mentioned, but more because there is other information that comes with that, and references.)
*The "admin comment" you mentioned in an edit summary was probably an attempt by Spirou to distill your own comment (". . . failed attempt to made a comic strip and novel with them").
*Use of "show preview" and edit summaries for each saved edit are a good idea (we're not always perfect here, either :-).
*You can sign your name and the date on talk pages with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>), or use three for just your name, five for just the date.
Edits are ''meant'' to be visible immediately, but sometimes are cached, especially for visitors. I've cleared the cache of the page on our servers, although it may still not be visible for a few hours at your friends' end. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 04:13, 29 June 2013 (EDT)

==Adding Navbox to the italian Wikifur==
Hello Green Reaper! In order to better sort the pages of the italian Wikifur, I was thinking about adding Navboxes templates under some pages (just like the ones the English Wikifur has under the convention related pages). I've seen, however, that the Navbox template doesn't work unless I install the ParserFunctions extention, which I couldn't install myself (it's way too much for my computer knowledges). Is there a way to make th installation easier, or should it be done by someone else? 
Thanks for your time and patience, and I understand you're at AC now, so I'll wait for your response after your return. :)

== Cannot reset password ==

Hello. This is user bunnyhugger, though I can't prove it. I forgot my password months ago and have been unable to reset it. I have tried numerous times to have a new password sent, but I never receive the email. The email address on file is probably my ameritech.net address, which is an AT&T address. Unfortunately, AT&T likes to go crazy blocking mail from any IPs they consider suspect. My best guess as to why I do not receive the mail is that AT&T has blacklisted wikifur.com. If that isn't it, then I have no idea.

==Sannse censorship==
:[http://animeslaps.wikia.com/wiki/?diff=4268 I'm afraid I will be closing this wiki at the end of the week. I would suggest that you contact GreenReaper of WikiFur, I know that he has helped with hosting in a similar situation.]

I got [http://animeslaps.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Sannse contacted a week ago] with the threats to shut down my wiki because she's insisting that because I'm documenting instances of slapping in anime and stuff that I must be 'eroticizing' it as some kind of 'fanservice' and that it somehow breaks the Terms of Use. I completely disagree and can't find where the Terms are broken but this doesn't seem to matter as she's not budging and seems intent on bringing down the hammer regardless of how many explanations or offered concessions I make.

She asked I contact you for suggestions on how to retain the wiki so I was wondering if you might know. I know how to Special:Export so but this only appears to cover articles but not the image files I was hosting on them. At this point since so many images haven't even been identified (I just raided a blog post where the creator didn't attribute them to specific series/episodes/characters) they're very important to identifying some unknown scenes.

She mentioned something about bots that could download images from a wiki for us. Would you be familiar with how to do this? If not then I guess I have to get to the manual downloading which sucks. [[User talk:Tyciol|Ty]] 06:50, 13 August 2013 (EDT)
:Hmm. Actually, I don't believe I've ever hosted a migrating wiki, apart of course from [[WikiFur]] itself. The [[Uncyclopedia:Forum:Village Dump|Uncyclopedia crew]] have more recent experience of moving from Wikia hosting and it might be best to ask them what they did. My largest contribution to that was [[MediaWikiWiki:Extension:MediaWikiAuth|MediaWikiAuth]], which lets people login and transfer their account from another wiki (and which should actually work with current versions of MediaWiki after their gentle ministrations). [http://wowpedia.org Wowpedia] also left with a lot of files.
:When it comes to a wiki-specific tool for image transfer, you might want to look at [[MediaWikiWiki:Manual:Pywikipediabot/imagetransfer.py|pywikipediabot's imagetransfer.py]]. I haven't used it but if you can whip up a family file for your wiki and a target instance of MediaWiki to put it onto (several hosts offer turnkey MediaWiki installs), it may work. There are many tools you can use to create an image of a site; I'd suggest trying [http://www.httrack.com/ HTTrack] and see how you go if the image transfer doesn't work out. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 07:54, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

==File upload problems==

Good evening, I'm having trouble with a file I uploaded [http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/File:Katbox_logo_2.png (this one)]. It had too much whitespace when I uploaded it, but when I cropped it, it came out skewed in the upload. So I uploaded the original again, but then the previous version looked fine, so I reverted, only to have it come out skewed again. Frankly, I'm stumped. Is this something you can fix? I've reverted to the version with too much space for now. -[[User:Captain Video|Captain Video]] 02:11, 15 March 2014 (EDT)

:WikiFur's images are cached and uploading a new one that is a different size under the same name may cause temporary issues because the website is sizing the image appropriately for the current version but your browser is accessing the cached version.

Hi there,

Thank about the page, Didn't know for sure yet how to do everything.

And the DA page is a mistake with age, I putted 1990 there, but probably something went wrong and since then it's 1989, Even though my real birth is December 17, 1990 ( 23 )

Not sure yet how to change the rest though, Linking the DA, FA and SF page soon too, Could use some help though.

Thank you :)

Could I suggest that administrators wait at least 72 hours before going on a deletion rampage. If it is a crime to leave something in the mainspace unfinished for less than 24 hours then I won't do it again. But elsewhere I personally give people at least 2 weeks to work on stuff. Also instead of clicking the delete button, it would have taken him a couple minutes to convert that into a stub.

:Curators are there to help if you have problems, and to help ensure that articles are at a consistent level of quality, not to write entire articles based on a couple of links that you found interesting.

:We've come a long way with our current policies. Above all we need to be compassionate, flexible, and communicative about their implementation. It's very easy to start off on the wrong foot, and if there is a failure in understanding on one side - or both - it can lead to unnecessary problems.

:The decline in contributions appears to be general. People spend more time on social media and less time contributing to group projects.

Well, I thought about it when James Hardiman passed away recently. I thought, I am still alive and here and doing some art still. Sure it's been a struggle a lot of times! But I guess I am doing the best that I can.

But I guess I am still here to tell the tale! My email is still mickmoart[at]yahoo[dot]com

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

==History==

Encyclopedia Dramatica (originally also known as '''encyclopediadramatica.com''') is founded by '''Girlvinyl''' in December 2004 as a compendium of internet personalities, events and memes in response to [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mediacrat|the deletion of the Mediacrat vanity page]] on [[Wikipedia]],{{fact}} created by [[LiveJournal]] e-celebrity [[W:User:Jameth|Jameth]] (who used to be an honorary administrator on the site.){{fact}}

=== End of ED.com ===

On April 2011, ED.com's owners redirected encyclopediadramatica.com to a SFW (safe for work) replacement site, [http://ohinternet.com/ Oh Internet], a new website, dedicated to documenting Internet culture while remaining "SFW" (safe for work). Girlvinyl stated about the move:

{{Q|Shock for shock’s sake is old at this point and we’re looking forward to the future and how things are evolving … when you put user experience first, the language becomes highly important and that’s what we’ve done.}}

In the meantime, using data from a recent "Web Ecology Project" scrape,<ref>http://www.webecologyproject.org/2011/04/archiving-internet-subculture-encyclopedia-dramatica/</ref> [[wikipedia:Google Cache|Google Cache]], and [[wikipedia:Archive.org|The Wayback Machine]], volunteers were able to salvage most of the 9,000+ articles, and almost all of the images from the original site; and a community formed around the new site.

'''Encyclopedia Dramatica (.ch)''' was created by users and former administrators<ref>[http://www.dailydot.com/culture/encyclopedia-dramatica-returns/ ''Encyclopedia Dramatica's seething satire is back''] article on [http://www.dailydot.com/ The daily Dot]. Posted July 26, 2011. Retrieved ay 22, 2013.</ref> displeased with the April 14, 2011 content gutting and redirect of encyclopediadramatica.com to ED.com previous owner Sherrod DeGrippo's replacement website, OhInternet.com. In October, 2013, OhInternet was closed after vandals targeted the site.

=== ED.ch troubles and domain loss ===

ED.ch went offline after the site's founder, [[W:LulzSec#Law_enforcement_response|Ryan Cleary]], was arrested for alledged affiliation to [[W:LulzSec|LulzSec]], the [[troll]] hacker group.<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/jun/22/ryan-cleary-charged-lulzsec-hacking ''Teenager Ryan Cleary charged over LulzSec hacking''] article on [http://www.guardian.co.uk/ The Guardian].

Retrieved ?.</ref>

In March of 2012, encyclopædiadramatica.ch suffered a brief downtime due to renewal complications with the domain registrars in Switzerland. While the database was secured, the site was not able to be accessed until '''encyclopediadramatica.se''' was purchased. Since then, encyclopædiadramatica.se is still working with the registrars to re-obtain the .ch domain.<ref>[http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.se/threads/encyclopedia-dramatica-is-now-encyclopediadramatica-se.7344/ Encyclopedia ''Dramatica is now encyclopediadramatica.se''] thread on the [http://forum.encyclopediadramatica.se/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se) forums]. Retrieved ?.</ref>

On June 27, 2011, the ED.ch forums were hacked again, and the email addresses of every registered member were posted to [[W:Pastebin|Pastebin]] and published in a blog owned by [[Wikipedia:Google|Google]] and [[Wikipedia]] critic [[W:Daniel Brandt|Daniel Brandt]] entitled ''[http://josephevers.blogspot.com Encyclopedia Dramatica: There is no Joseph Evers]''.

Photos and personal data of some of the more prominent users were also revealed ([[W:Dox|Doxed]]), particularly user [[Zaiger]].{{fact}} Among other things, logs from the ED [[IRC]] channel that showed users in a negative light were posted.{{fact}}

=== ED.se domain loss ===

On September 13, 2013, encyclopædiadramatica.se went off-line,{{fact}}{{clarify}} returning a few days later under it's prior Spanish based mirror domain, '''encyclopædiadramatica.es'''<ref>[https://twitter.com/ED_Updates/status/380439272513609728 ''Hi we're back!''] post on Encyclopædia Dramatica's [[Twitter]]. Posted September 18, 2013. Retrieved September 20, 2013.</ref>

=== ED.es domain loss ===

On October 1, 2014, the encyclopediadramatica.es domain ceased functioning,<ref>[https://twitter.com/ED_Updates/status/517430638509453312 Encyc Dramatica æ on Twitter: "ED is down at the moment.

== Types of content ==
[[File:Ae-tan ED Mascot.jpg|right|thumb|Ae-tan, ED [[Mascot]].]]
Most ED articles avoid a "neutral point of view" and encouraged sarcasm, hyperbole, and other kinds of mocking the article's subject; they are not required to be referenced or have any basis in fact. It had been compared to an internet version of a [[W:Supermarket_tabloid|tabloid]] and the [[W:Devil's Dictionary|Devil's Dictionary]].{{cn}} The only effective editorial requirements were that the content was legal and funny.{{fact}}

=== Article themes included ===

* Criticism of Wikipedia, its editors, administrators, and policies
* The people, events, and culture of [[W: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]] [[image-board]]s
* Mocking subcultures like [[emo]], [[goths]], [[furries]], and anyone the members consider to have an unwarranted case of self-importance{{cn}}
* Presenting an article as encyclopedic, while delivering satirical commentary and criticism
* Purposeful misinformation

=== Images ===

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

== Controversy ==
=== Drama ===

The most common criticism of Encyclopedia Dramatica is that its purpose of documenting drama often resulted 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 appeared 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.{{cn}} Encyclopedia Dramatica relies on the [[fair use exception]] clauses of [[United States copyright law]] as a defense. Their [[Arbchat]] procedure was 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."{{fact}}

=== Privacy ===

The site often revealed personal information about ordinary people such as names, addresses, and phone numbers if found ([[W:Doxing|Doxxing]]).

== Encyclopedia Dramatica and furry ==

The ED.se site contains almost all old ED.com, ED.ch and ED.se articles documenting the [[furry fandom]] and [[furry]]-related topics. The ED.se "[[Furfag|FurFaggotry]] Portal"<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Portal:Furfaggotry Portal:FurFaggotry] on [http://encylclopediadramatica.se/ Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se)]. Retrieved ?.</ref> was once maintained by EDitors<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Special:ListUsers/Editors ED.se editor list] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved June 7, 2013.</ref> [[Equivamp]] and '''Notanalt''', now maintained by [[administrator]] '''Schnookums'''.<ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/User:Zaiger/Encyclopedia_Dramatica:Caretakers#Furfaggotry ''Encyclopedia Dramatica:Caretakers''] page on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved November 13, 2013.</ref><ref>[https://encyclopediadramatica.se/index.php?title=User%3ASchnookums&action=historysubmit&diff=546220&oldid=542118 ''This User is M.I.A.''] on Encyclopedia Dramatica (.se). Retrieved June 7, 2013.</ref>

The site's material on furries is generally about what's considered the worst of the [[fandom]], and like most articles on the site, it is intentionally offensive, and many users 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 editing as long as they followed the site's policies and refrained from vandalizing.{{fact}} Besides criticizing the fandom in general, some furries use the site to criticize specific individuals or groups, particularly ones whom they feel make furries look bad, or to make private drama very public and persistent.{{cn}}

Still other furries wish to put a redeemingly "fun spin" on an aspect of the fandom{{clarify}} which could easily fall into disrepute or gain copious amounts of negative coverage.

For instance, furry [[author]] [[Royal-Sovereign]] wrote an extensive article on the [[Transformation]] fetish, which he has admitted to be one of his favorite [[paraphilia|sexual diversions]]. Rather than conform to the acerbic vitriol generally seen on the site, Royal-Sovereign utilised a distinctly tongue-in-cheek tone, satirising both the [[fetish]] and, therefore, himself:
{{Q|Like alcohol, transformation is a "gateway" drug (er, fetish) for people on the Internet, making normal people into zoophiles or worse, like finding newfound pleasure in bukkake or anal rape - all of which can be found in copious amounts throughout Transformation stories and art. Fapping too much to Transformation stuff can lead to horrifying self-discoveries about what turns you on sexually.|4=[[Royal-Sovereign]] a.k.a. RoyalShitbrick|5="Transformation"}}

The original ED.com was often used as staging ground for massive [[troll]]ing or [[spam]]ming crusades against a certain furry and sites deemed particularly perverted or offensive,{{cn}} and ED 'raids' had forced several furries to abandon accounts on [[Youtube]] and [[DeviantArt]] due to repeated spam barrages.{{cn}} Notable victims of this practice are [[Straitfox|InSaNe-REYNARD]] and [[Snapesnogger]], both artists who were driven off DeviantArt.{{cn}}

The "Schnookums" fursona is based off the character Šizo (pronounced "shee-zoh") from the Croatian animated film ''The Magician's Hat''.
