'''Furocity''' was a social networking website, image gallery and [[role-play]]ing profile site aimed at the [[furry fandom]]. The site evolved since its founding in 2003 and had a registered userbase of over 34,000 people before an attempted merger with [[Fur Affinity]] in 2011. It dropped offline in November 2012.

== History==

Furocity was founded in fall 2003 by [[Gavin O. Daemonshyai]] and Vallen, [[Wikipedia:New England|New England]]-based coders. Originally, the site was strictly designed for roleplaying profiles, in response to [[Furcadia]]'s limit on character descriptions. Over time though, the website became useful for other roleplaying games, such as [[World of Warcraft]] and [[Wikipedia:Ragnarok Online|Ragnarok Online]], and soon became an important site for roleplayers, furry and non-furry alike.

Around 2008, gallery and blogging functionality was added to the site in order for members to display their work. However, because many felt as though that these additional functions felt tacked on (including Gavin himself), an entirely recoded version of Furocity was written starting in Spring 2009, in order to shift the focus of the site to multimedia upload. This new version launched about six months later at the beginning of October, and supported written and musical submissions. After the launch of the new version of the site, Furocity amassed thousands of user submissions.

On 4 March, 2010, the server suffered a PSU failure which sent it offline.<ref>[http://twitter.com/furocitydotcom/status/9984744823 Furocity tweet] (4 March 2010)</ref> The backup server was affected by a similar problem and the downtime persisted until April 5.<ref>[http://twitter.com/Daemonshyai/status/11682701789 Daemonshyai tweet] (6 April 2010)</ref>

In 2011, a series of events began which concluded with the inactivation of the site:
*On July 14, 2011, a "merger" of staff and resources was announced between Furocity and [[Fur Affinity]].<ref>''[http://forums.furaffinity.net/threads/103573-Fur-Affinity-Furocity-Merger-Announcement Fur Affinity/Furocity Merger Announcement]'' - [[The Dragoneer]], Fur Affinity Forums (14 July 2011)</ref> The sites themselves remained independent. Seven Furocity staff joined FA's ranks, but the majority left at the end of October 2011, citing friction with FA's existing staff.<ref>[http://www.flayrah.com/3720/five-fur-affinity-staff-resign-some-citing-leadership-failures Five Fur Affinity staff resign, some citing leadership failures] - [[Rakuen Growlithe]], ''[[Flayrah]]''</ref>
*On the evening of November 2, 2011, ''furocity.com'' began redirecting to [[Inkbunny]] with no explanation.
*On November 3, the site's Url would redirect to several sites and media, such as Inkbunny, SoFurry, a [[YouTube]] video of ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoBFhdeR9PE The End]'' by [[wikipedia:The Doors|The Doors]], and cycling back to some of those addressees again, including Furocity.
*[[File:Gavin's reasons.png|right|thumb|"Gavin" post on [[SoFurry]].]]On November 7, a "Gavin" announced on a SoFurry post that Furocity had closed, in part due to the problems caused by the collapsed merger with Fur Affinity. People commented that this "Gavin" was in fact a hacker that had taken over the site.<ref>[http://beta.sofurry.com/forum/view/thread?id=13901 ''Furocity Merger?''. Comments about "Gavin"s post on the SoFurry forums.] Retrieved November 8, 2011</ref>
*On November 17, the site came back online under the control of its owners. The real Gavin said in a Furocity blog that the November 7 SoFurry Gavin was an impostor.<ref>[http://gavin.furocity.com/blog/4991/ Gavin O. Daemonshyai's blog response to the November "situation" with Furocity.] Retrieved November 17, 2011</ref>
*In early September 2012, the site disappeared with no explanation, and remained offline for three weeks before returning. It again disappeared in late November 2012, this time apparently for good.

==Features and services ==
[[File:Furocity screenshot.JPG|thumb|160px|left|A gallery-centric user profile]]
Furocity allowed users to choose whether their profile centers around their gaming and roleplaying characters, or around their gallery submissions. The gaming/roleplaying page layout focused on a character profile and description and user comments. Gallery-centric accounts minimized comments and character profiles in favor of gallery uploads, favorites, and journal entries.

Like [[LiveJournal]], the site had the ability to make a journal entry friends-only or even private, so that only people you have friended (as opposed to watched) could view specific journals.

=== AUP ===

Furocity was more restrictive than some art websites with regard to more extreme fetishes. As of December 2009, it was against the Acceptable Upload Policy to submit art revolving around the [[cub]] or [[bestiality]] fetishes.<ref>[http://asp.furocity.com/ Acceptable Submission Policy]</ref> A tag-based filtering system was used along with a multi-level rating system (General, Mature, Adult, Possibly Offensive), so that users could avoid looking at submissions which they find objectionable, assuming they were tagged and rated correctly.

=== Paid and free accounts ===

The site offered paid accounts to provide an incentive for monetary contributions to the site, much like [[deviantART]]. Paying users had larger upload limits, the ability to choose what sort of notifications (gallery entries and journals) they received from individual friends, and access to a commission queue in order to keep track of commissions. A folder sorting system, a commission information page, and the ability to delete, screen, and freeze comments were available to all users.

'''SheezyArt''', also known as '''Sheezy''', was an online [[art site]] devoted to all types of media, including [[W:traditional art|traditional]], [[digital artist|digital]], [[photography]], [[writing]], [[W:Pixel art|pixel art]], and [[animation]]. It originally operated from 2003 to 2013. It was revived by a former user in 2021 as Sheezy.Art, but the revival ended up being short-lived; the servers for the revived site will close in 2022, and its community will continue to live on as a Discord server.

== History ==

* November 30, 2003 - SheezyArt is created by Channel Cat.
* Summer of 2005 - SheezyArt suffers intermittently blackouts due to server problems.{{cn}} This resulted in the site being $700.00 short on its server bills, which are usually paid by ad revenue; however, site members' donations helped to pay the bill.{{cn}}
* April 22, 2006 - Channel Cat announced that he would relinquish the site's ownership to administrators Spencer and [[Thor (person)|Thor]]. <ref>[http://sheezyart.com/news/214/ ''Goodbye and Hello :)''] post on SheezyArt. Retrieved ?.</ref>
* May 31, 2013 - SheezyArt's [[staff]] announces on their [[Facebook]] page that they were:
{{q|[temporarily] closed to the public, while we prepare [...] a completely new site design, logo & branding, as well as a freshly minted technology platform.{{cn}}}}
:User data was planned to be preserved through the transition.
* September 17, 2014 - SheezyArt's staff announces that SheezyArt 's hiatus will continue, and that ownership would return to ChannelCat, Spencer staying on the same staff role.<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/sheezyart/posts/546943832072781 ''This is IMPORTANT. Please read.''] post on [[Facebook]]. Retrieved December 1, 2014.</ref>
* November 7, 2015 - Spencer admits that "in all probability, SA will not be able to return any time in the near future", due to a lack of access to the files and the staff's inability to personally restore or maintain the site.<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/sheezyart/posts/702575763176253 "TL;DR: Sad news. SA isn't going to return anytime soon."] - post on SheezyArt's Facebook page (November 7, 2015)</ref>
* April 2021 - SheezyArt is revived as [https://www.sheezy.art Sheezy.Art.] The site is now under new management by a former Sheezy user known as Ry. FORMER OG STAFF APPROVED OF THE NEW SITE ON DISCORD: https://i.imgur.com/emf8peV.png, So much so you´ll see OLD SA staff even closed down Ambiance Gallery (The successor to SA) And started redirecting people to the rebooted SA. https://i.imgur.com/rhl8Sef.png !
* January 3, 2022 - Ry announces that Sheezy.Art will be shut down as they were unable to keep up with the influx of new users and necessary continued maintenance of the site; the site's Patreon and Ko-fi campaigns were already closed the previous day. The community will live on as a Discord server.<ref name="Revival shutdown">"ry" (January 3, 2022). [https://sheezy.art/news/updates/2022-01-03/sheezy-art-is-shutting-down "Sheezy.Art is shutting down".] Sheezy.Art.</ref>
* February 1, 2022 - Sheezy.Art will enter read-only mode as it prepares to be shut down.<ref name="Revival shutdown"/>
* March 1, 2022 - Sheezy.Art has closed permanently.<ref name="Revival shutdown"/>
* December 17, 2023 - Sheezy.Art is reopening. https://sheezy.blog/ & https://twitter.com/Sheezy_Art/status/1713887523599175823<ref name="Revival re-opening"/>

== Features and rules ==
SheezyArt's visual template is based on the same used at the [[DeviantArt]] art gallery, and as so, allowed user commentary on [[artwork]], journals, and user pages. SheezyArt, like DeviantArt, offered a set [[forum]]s in which the community could gather.

Works containing explicitly [[adult]] material/subject matter were forbidden.

SheezyArt had a tolerance for harmless [[troll]]ing and, to some degree, encouraged.{{cn}} Argumentative and aggressive behavior was often seen and tolerated,{{cn}} but outright aggression and harassment is usually reprimanded.

== Mascot ==
[[File:Dante.png|right|180px|thumb|Former Sheezy mascot Dante]]
SheezyArt's OLD [[mascot]] was a [[raccoon]] named '''Dante''', until he was removed in March 2007 from the site. Channel Cat officially stated this was due to the fact that "We felt he didn't represent the artists well."{{clarify}}{{cn}}

Dante was created by former staff member [[Vensy]],{{cn}} a [[cosplayer]] and [[prop/product designer]].

A SheezyArt club, ''The Bring Back Dante Club :)'', was created to preserve the memory of the former mascot.<ref>[http://clubs.sheezyart.com/Bring_Back_Dante/ ''The Bring Back Dante Club :)''] club on SheezyArt. Dated March 19, 2007. Retrieved ?

SheezyArt's NEW [[mascot]] is a [[rabbit]] named '''Sheemz''',."
!
</ref>

== Controversy ==

In January 2005, SheezyArt banned all [[adult]] material content on its archive, deleting all media tagged as "adult", citing a new server host's policy restrictions on said content.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20050310172611/http://www.sheezyart.com/news/119/ ''Sheezy Art Status Update :)''] post on SheezyArt. Retrieved ?.</ref>

Many adult artists{{who}} expressed disbelief at the administrators' explanation, believing the new policies to be unfair and unnecessary at best, a form of intentional persecution as worst,{{cn}} with some leaving the site altogether.

== SheezyArt and furry ==

In its original incarnation, SheezyArt all type of content, including adult media, in contrast to deviantART's content restrictions rules.{{cn}} This made it a popular archive for adult art [[artist]]s, including those in the [[furry fandom]].

During the site's 2005 adult art ban, some of these [[furry artist]]s would migrate to such galleries as [[Fur Affinity]] and [[y!Gallery]], both of which were at the time [[furry]]-friendly and without content restrictions.

[[File:Lord Mannoroth by Shaggy Griffon.jpg|150px|right|thumb|"Lord Mannoroth", a taursuit by [[Shaggy Griffon]]. Notice the small wheels under the [[paw]]s of the secondary hind legs.]]
A '''taursuit''' or '''taur suit''' is a type of [[fursuit]] which possesses limb extensions beyond the typical four-limb (or two-arm, two-leg) fursuits which are usually displayed; usually, taursuits involve four legs with two arms, akin to the fictional [[centaur]], [[chakat]] or other [[taur]] characters in both mythological and modern fiction media.

==Managing extra legs==
[[File:Dark Ixi Spearman by Fyuvix.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Dark Ixi Spearman, constructed by [[Fyuvix]], and only worn once, at Otakon 2006<ref>[http://www.cosplay.com/costume/58546/ Costume page]: ''At first, I had the legs rigged up to move so that when I moved my left leg, the back right leg moved etc. The hind legs were made out of foam with fabric hinge joints so that it was basically like one giant marrionette. Then the hind legs would attach to two rings sewn into the bottom of the belly, then to my legs so that they would pull straight, and not inwards. Well... In theory it worked, and given more time to complete it, it could have worked perfectly, but shortly after entering the convention center, the fishing line tore through the plastic rings, and the whole rigging was ruined... So they just had to dangle for the rest of the con.''</ref>.]]
The options for managing the secondary hindlegs of a taursuit vary, depending upon whether the wearer's (or designer's) desire for the legs to simply move along with the movements of the primary hindlegs (the ones with the wearer's actual limbs slipped inside) or whether there is a desire for the secondary hindlegs to become more autonomous in their function.

Movement-autonomous secondary hindlegs are much harder to construct or accomplish, with suggested solutions going so far as [[wikipedia:animatronics|animatronics]] or pneumatics to accomplish the construction of secondary hindlegs which can be controlled by the wearer rather than by an indirect control through another body part.

Consequently, among attempts to construct taursuits, methods of keeping the secondary hindlegs from being hindrances to the movement of the fursuit and its wearer primarily involve non-autonomous movement of such pseudo-limbs, such as through wheels which sit under the paws of the two secondary hindlegs (as shown in the first example) or through rigging which can allow the wearer to shuffle the secondary hindlegs by hooking them up to the wearer's own legs in the primary forelegs - or a combination of both.

Star Wars

2023-01-12T16:07:55Z

Dokatamaru: /* Star Wars and furry */ 🪡

[[File:Star wars logo.png|right|275px]]
[[File:Lucasfilm logo.png|right|110px]]
[[File:Walt Disney Studios logo.png|right|110px]]
'''''Star Wars''''' is the name of a [[science fiction]] franchise, started in 1977 with the release of the first of the six ''Star Wars'' films — ''[[starwars:Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope|Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope]]'' by [[starwars:George Lucas|George Lucas]]. It is currently controlled by [[starwars:Lucasfilm Ltd.|Lucasfilm Ltd.]] (LFL), founded by George Lucas, which determines the [[starwars:Star Wars canon|canonicity]] of all licensed ''Star Wars'' media.

== Premise ==

''Star Wars'' is set in [[starwars:The Galaxy|a unknown galaxy]] roughly modeled after the Milky Way, only known as the "''Star Wars'' galaxy" or the "galaxy far, far away". The six films cover a relatively short 36-year period of galactic history ([[starwars:32 BBY|32 BBY]] to [[starwars:4 ABY|4 ABY]], where BBY and ABY stand for "before/after the [[starwars:Battle of Yavin|Battle of Yavin]]" (which can be interpreted as "before/after the events of ''Episode IV''). In comparison, the [[starwars:Expanded Universe|Expanded Universe]], which consists of all ''Star Wars'' media except the films, covers more than five millennia, the earliest story in the in-universe chronogy taking place in circa [[starwars:5,000 BBY|5,000 BBY]] (''[[starwars:Tales of the Jedi: The Golden Age of the Sith|Tales of the Jedi: The Golden Age of the Sith]]'') and the latest in circa [[starwars:137 ABY|137 ABY]] (''[[starwars:Star Wars: Legacy|Star Wars: Legacy]]'').

Despite the artificial separation of the films and the Expanded Universe, all ''Star Wars'' stories, regardless of the media (films, books, comics, games, cartoons, toys, and others), are parts of the same shared continuity, except for material explicitly deemed non-canon by Lucasfilm.

In an unlikely event of parallel evolution, [[human]]s (apparently identical to those of Earth, although generally believed to have originated on the galactic capital of [[starwars:Coruscant|Coruscant]]) and near-human [[species]] coexist with a wide variety of species: humanoid (most common), [[aquatic]], [[arachnoid]], [[avian]], [[botanical]], [[equine]], [[feline]], [[insectoid]], mineral-based, [[reptilian]], [[rodentine]], and others. There are over 1,200 known species, although the majority of them are only briefly mentioned and have no known visual depiction. This entry concentrates on known "furry-like" characters and/or species.

=== Species ===

While the [[starwars:Wookiee|Wookiees]] and [[starwars:Ewok|Ewoks]] are arguably the most well-known furry-like species in ''Star Wars'' (and among the most well-known ''Star Wars'' species whatsoever), there are many more species that can be classified as of "furry interest". More than 50 of them have visual depictions, many of them falling into the feline, equine, and rodent categories. These include:

High Orbit

2022-04-12T14:17:41Z

Dokatamaru: ru:High Orbit

'''''High Orbit''''' was a comic created by [[Deal Whitley]] and serialized in issues #6-9 of [[Albedo Anthropomorphics]]. The story was uncompleted at the time of Deal's death.

==Story==
One of the other Albedo contributors [[Wikipedia:Matt Howarth|Matt Howarth]] had published a one-shot graphic novel in 1985 called [http://www.bugtownmall.com/Covers_htm/wrab.htm WRAB: Pirate Television] about an ultimately benevolent, temporary hijacking of the world's video nets. The title "High Orbit" appeared as a series title in the outlaw station's programme guide. At the same time, Deal Whitley had been considering a futuristic sequel to his campus [[Wikipedia:Slice of life story|slice-of-life]] character comedy comic series ''[[Opporknockitytoons]]'', so the idea of connecting the two series seemed a natural to [[Steve Gallacci|Albedo's editor]]. Thus ''High Orbit'' is supposedly a story within a story, a science fiction soap opera airing on WRAB pirate television.

The overall scenario of High Orbit is of a funny-animal Earth, just after the turn of the next century, and life in Clarke orbit. The setting is the Zenna Henderson HEO Habitory Facility, part of the USA One station. One plot thread involves an attempt to close down funding to a deep space observatory attached to a station, while a second involves the culture clash between the relatively promiscous orbital community and their more prudish terrestrial visitors. The second thread involves some amount of sex and nudity, and was the first publication of such in ''Albedo''.

==Characters==
The major characters are descendants of, or made their first appearance in ''[[Opporknockitytoons]]'', a fannish strip by Deal which first appeared in ''[[Rowrbrazzle]]''.

* Dr '''Sabina Kitteridge-DiGlamourmoor''', the Director of Physics Studies and Associate Director of Cosmological Studies at the C. K. Sheffield Deep Space Research Laboratory. Sabina was the co-creation of Deal and fellow cartoonist [[Lou Scarborough]].

* '''Tetra Matthews''', adult daughter of Sabina's old friend Joy, visiting from Earth. She has a cow plush named "Margaret".

* '''Ruth-Simone DiGlamourmoor''', Sabina's young granddaughter.

* '''Allyn Hanes''', a male mouse and the villain of the story. He's an independent agent working for the Exec Council, trying to close the C. K. Sheffield observatory.



==Publication History==
The production of ''High Orbit'' was constantly hampered by Deal's poor health, and only three issues of the comic were produced.

The first 12-page issue was inked by [[Steve Gallacci]] and ran in Albedo #6.

The second issue was ten pages in Albedo #7, inked by [[Steven Montano]].

The third issue wasn't ready in time for Albedo #8; Deal printed an apology letter and two pages of rough pencils. The ten-page instalment that ran in Albedo #9 was co-scripted by [[Robert Carspecken]]. It was intended for it to be inked by Steven Montano, but published instead in pencil form.

[[File:Crowbar.jpg|right|thumb|Erma Felna and the perennial crowbar. Art by Steven Gallacci]]
One of the long-running inside jokes of [[furry fandom]] is that of drawing a [[female]] [[furry]] character, naked with a '''crowbar''', which is 1920's slang for a penis. <ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=5GpLcC4a5fAC&pg=PA113&lpg=PA113&q=crowbar%20penis Cassell's Dictionary of Slang]</ref>

== History ==

The origins of the joke are said to be a convention sometime in the 1980s. As the story goes, someone asked [[Steve Gallacci]] to draw a picture of [[Erma Felna]] naked. He declined, but [[Jim Groat]] who was nearby and overheard the conversation, asked again in a whiny [[fanboy]] voice to draw her naked, and with a crowbar.<ref>[http://afterdark.planetfurry.com/smf/index.php?topic=567.11;msg=11719 Post] by [[Ironbadger]] to [[Planetfurry]] AfterDark forums</ref>

Since then, it has become something of a cliché/running joke that any [[artist]] in the furry fandom will at some point produce a picture of a female naked with a crowbar, or that any sufficiently well-known female character will be drawn naked with a crowbar (one recent [[LiveJournal]] discussion mentioned [[Florence Ambrose]]).{{fact}}

Some artists have done one or more pictures specifically to pay homage to the joke. It has been parodied in a few stories, including [[Sabrina Online: The Story]], and was referenced in the [[wikipedia:Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] game [[wikipedia:Nightshade (1992 video game)|Nightshade]], which was written by [[Paul Kidd]]. <ref>[http://afterdark.planetfurry.com/smf/index.php?topic=567.14;msg=11749 Post] by [[Ironbadger]] to [[Planetfurry]] AfterDark forums</ref>

== The Titanium Crowbar Awards ==

On July 25, 2000, artist [[Brian O'Connell]] suggested in [[alt.fan.furry]] the creation of the '''Titanium Crowbar Awards''' for best [[furry erotica]] in the fandom.<ref>[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.fan.furry/browse_thread/thread/2a69dc8c66faa3c3/ea5df42924341f85?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=titanium+crowbar#ea5df42924341f85 ''Submitted Ponderings on Furry Erotica Awards...'' post on [[alt.fan.furry]].] (retrieved November 27, 2011)</ref> This came out of a discussion involving "crowbar" jokes, posted earlier on the group, involving the device, Gallaci's character, and sex.

Even though he wrote a ballot post on August of that same year on AFF, with category nominations, nothing came out of it, and the idea was shelved.<ref>[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.fan.furry/browse_thread/thread/4ba36e4f18b23c70/0893388bc63b72e3?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=titanium+crowbar#0893388bc63b72e3 ''Titanium Crowbar Awards Nominations Poll'' post on alt.fan.furry. (August 17, 2000).] (retrieved November 27, 2011)</ref>

Krystal can't enjoy her sandwich

[[file:Cbee-krystal.png|right|thumb|The original Krystal art piece by Cbee]]
"'''''Krystal can't enjoy her sandwich'''''" was a popular [[W:meme|meme]] on [[Fur Affinity]].

== History ==

[[Cbee]], an artist on Fur Affinity, drew a picture of [[Krystal]] from [[Star Fox]] eating a sandwich on June 9, 2007. On July 22nd, he posted a landscape with the previous Krystal picture in the foreground, stating:
{{q|I originally drew this while being on a [[W:Bob Ross|Bob Ross]] high on the [[Kemonoart]] [[oekaki]] board. Krystal was added as an afterthought and to meet an unwritten "must contain [[furry]]" rule.<ref> ''[[News:'Krystal sandwich' meme strikes Fur Affinity|WikiFur News Report]]</ref> }}

An FA user, [[krystalcantenjoyhersandwich]], inserted cBee's [[drawing]] of Krystal into photographs of disastrous events which might be expected to make her sad and uploaded them to Fur Affinity. cbee considered his own work free to use, and other artists created and posted their own art based on the theme. However, when a [[character]] drawn by another artist{{who}} was included in a picture, it resulted in a complaint.{{clarify}}{{cn}}

Cbee was banned (though the ban was overturned shortly afterward), along with krystalcantenjoyhersandwich, the account that uploaded a number of parody images; both had the art related to the meme removed.{{clarify}}{{cn}} However, by that time, many FA users had started uploading [[W:parody|parody art]] often featuring their own [[fursona]]s in a similar pose to the original [[art]], demonstrating that they also cannot enjoy their sandwich (or other items). In four days, over 300 individual pieces of art had been produced on Fur Affinity alone.<ref>[http://www.furaffinity.net/favorites/sandwitchmeme/ sandwitchmeme's account] on [[Fur Affinity]]. Retrieved ?.</ref>

FurAffinity self-effacingly joined the bandwagon by editing their then-current banner to contain the meme ([[Fender]] eating his tie, drawn by [[Muzz]]).{{cn}} For a while, [[WikiFur]] also replaced their banner with the picture of Krystal.{{cn}}

Kilrathi

Dokatamaru:

{{unref}}
'''Kilrathi''' are a race of [[anthropomorphic]] [[felines]] that appear in the ''[[:Wikipedia:Wing Commander (franchise)|Wing Commander]]'' movie and series of video games. The Kilrathi are the villains of the story, as they fight [[human]]s in an all-out space war.

{{spoiler}}

Although Kilrathi are extremely proud and dismiss the idea of treachery out of hand, Hobbes, the Kilrathi pilot flying for the humans, eventually does betray them.

== Question about my wikifur page ==

Hello, I was told by spirou to talk to you about my wikifur page.
I sent a note about it to your FA. It will be from the user "Fuzzlemuzzle".

Please read when you get the chance, thank you!

== 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? [[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. [[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. [[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. [[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. I have just turned off the advanced editing functions, and it still did it. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 13:03, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

== Disregard the email I just sent ==

You took care of it. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 21:44, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

Actually, now might be a good time to ask. I'd like to be able to fight vandalism with greater ease. And while it wouldn't have helped much in this last situation, would it be too much of me to request rollback privelages? [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 21:55, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

:Sure. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 22:01, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

Wow, really? I was honestly expecting a "I'm sorry, but..." (Especially considering my recent ousting as an EDiot.) Thanks! [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 22:06, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

== 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]]) .

However, eBuddy works. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 16:12, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

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)
:We've had further conversation. This sort of thing happens every now and again in some cases. For the record, all I really told him about you was that you wouldn't respond well to vague threats - which was apparently correct. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:21, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

It's not that I thought you said anything bad, he just alluded to it enough that it seemed like something important. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 21:30, 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)

:The issue with UKFur should now be fixed - apparently there were some unexpected hiccups when the RBW posts were moved from "conventions" to "events", which have now been corrected. [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 11:06, 3 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. [I am going to cross-post this to your own Talk page just so you get this.] [[User:BlueOtter|BlueOtter]] 17:03, 17 August 2011 (EDT)

So you deleted the article; fair enough. However, while the other article continues to exist I find that a prime example of double standards. Also that you didn't allow a true discussion to be held about its deletion seems silly. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 17:17, 26 August 2011 (EDT)
:You mean the one about Blu Aardvark? If there's a consensus there to delete it, I'd be fine with that as well. As far as I'm aware, they haven't really been an issue here recently. As for the discussion, I saw four people in favour of deletion - five if you count me - one oppose (from the page creator), and one noncommittal response. If we were Wikipedia, it might be necessary to keep such pages around to inform those unaware of the situation, but I don't think that's the case here. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:19, 26 August 2011 (EDT)

I'm curious as to why you went through the process of deleting Equivamp's article, moving the revision over, and restoring the old edits. Wouldn't it have been quicker to just cut and paste, or am I overlooking something?--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 23:10, 4 September 2011 (EDT)

I doubt Tyciol will present any problems; it's TGcomix you really need to worry about.

== 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. As mentioned above, policy and article content decisions on WikiFur are made through the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus of editors]], not handed out from above as in most websites, but I would be glad to advise you on how our system works and suggest how best to achieve your goals. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:53, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== Deletion of my article and all other mentions/page/etc ==

Hi! I would like to remove any real mention of me, the article on me, etc. I am now concerned about my privacy and the amount of information available about me on the internet, and would like to get rid of it as much as possible. You can contact me via the email listed in my preferences (I assume this is viewable by you?)

==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. If the original adder really wants to make that article, they can always do that. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:28, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

: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.

*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.

== 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)

:The article has been unexcluded and is now publicly editable. Let us know if you have any further concerns. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 10:08, 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)
:This is not "I will be the only one editing this entry forever!" territory. I'm talking large input of material at one, most of the entries from diverse and obscure references (specially foreign). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:14, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

::I [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&limit=500&type=protect can't see evidence of use of this method] to protect personal editing projects.

I will expand on this in the ongoing discussion. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:16, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

:::Okay, then I will take Sine's suggestion, which is the most logical right know.

i'm adding some new articles to the italian wiki,but another guy is putting spam around the pages( even the main one),so please block him,my account is "Escofal"(i can't log in to the eng wiki,only to the italian version of the site).That bad guy has an ip like "173.--"

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.

== 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 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 :-).

==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.

Is there anything I can do to get access to my account back?

== Request for exclusion... ==

Hi, I'd like to request personal exclusion of both Leam and Adjectivecat. Please see this for more information http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Leam

I may not have a full understanding of the ethics or etiquette of wikis, but I know that inaccurate and obsolete information is more harmful than no information.

Thanks! [[User:Leam|Leam]] 03:19, 18 July 2013 (EDT)

:I've noted your request on [[Talk:Adjectivecat]]. [[Leam]] redirects to [[Adjectivecat]] and so will show the same template; unless you meant [[User:Leam]] (which we can delete outright if you wish, as it's a user page). --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 11:29, 19 July 2013 (EDT)

::Hi, GR, maybe I was confusing with my last message or there is something holding up my request? But the "same template" I was hoping to apply to Leam and Adjectivecat is the personal exclusion one.

==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)

Seems Spirou has gotten involved in an editing dispute where he later used protection and false citations (IE: providing a citation for a fact when the citation is openly stated to be the mere speculation of an individual).

: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.

== Changing reference link ==

Hello there!

I just discovered my WikiFur page (Zaria Melody) and I noticed that one of my reference links goes to my personal Twitter page using my real name, which I kinda don't want :P

So I was able to change my direct link to my twitter account that I use for my fursona, but I don't know how to get the reference changed so it stops going to my personal account.

Can you please help me? :3

: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.

:If there is understanding, but not acceptance, that's another matter. Some things are up for debate, but WikiFur is never going to be a free-for-all. (Few successful sites are.) We have tens of thousands of articles, now, and some level of consistency between them is important. Achieving it without treading on too many toes is an important skill for curators to master.

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

Well, it's been awhile since it ever got any updates with the current stuff i'd been doing since 2011. [I'd done 3 gallery pieces for Conan O'Brien and TBS. And even got included in the CONAN ART HALL OF FAME.]

I am still doing fuzzy-art off-and-on! [It's been incorporated in my CONAN art.]

But you folks have helped me in the past. So I am holding out a bit of hope that you can help me out now!

I forgot my old account stuff because it's been so long since I used it here. So I had to sign up for a new account over here.

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

So yeah, I wanted to get an update on my stuff...even after Radio Comix and all of that! :D

Thank you so much for helping me.

== User creation ==

Is there anything we can add to the user creation/registration process that wouldn't be much of an inconvenience for real persons but which would trip up spammers/bots? Something like a captcha or an e-mail validation, maybe? There have been more than a hundred new accounts registered in the last two days, enough to clutter up the recent changes quite a bit, and all but a few of them were blocked as expected or confirmed spammer accounts. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 16:40, 2 March 2015 (EST)

:We have always had a captcha (the math puzzle, which is custom for WikiFur, and usually works better than ReCAPTCHA), as well as other defenses against automated editing. However, over time, spammers tend to degrade these. I'll be looking at this once I've slept. Requiring an authenticated email address is an option, but it would prevent anonymous editors, which I'd hope to avoid if possible. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 19:50, 2 March 2015 (EST)

::Is there a way for an admin like me to see what IP addresses were used to create these accounts? If so, I could look through these for any patterns or ranges that could be dealt with using range blocks. I don't expect this would stop all of the spammer accounts, but it might allow us to take out a significant fraction of them. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 11:43, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:::You now have access to [[Special:CheckUser]] which should provide you access to this information. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:35, 4 March 2015 (EST)

::::All right, I've been running CheckUser on confirmed spammers for about three days now, and have added a few range blocks . One thing I've discovered, however, is that blocking a spammer is not automatically blocking the IP address they used, and within those few days there are some IP addresses that have been repeat offenders. If it's supposed to block the IP, it's not working. Is that something that can be looked into? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:::::Automatic blocks (used if the option to block their IP address is ticks) take action, by default, [[mw:Manual:$wgAutoblockExpiry|for a day]]. That may not be long enough. I will increase it to two weeks. Nowadays it should unblock the IP address if you unblock the person involved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::::A day might be long enough for the majority of vandals but it seems much too short for dealing with spammers. I'm using 1 year for the range blocks I've been applying; let me know if you think that's too long (or too short). IP blocks get reassigned, and I have to be especially conservative about blocking wider ranges below /24 (the absolute lowest I'll go is /16 and it might not allow me to go any lower). It's tempting to throw up a /24 block on every spammer IP but I probably won't go that far. As I told Equivamp below, we should be careful not to overblock IPs of potential legitimate users. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:44, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::When blocking spammers, could you please select 'Confirmed spammer' as the block reason?

Thanks. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 14:09, 5 August 2015 (EDT)

===IP range blocking===

I certainly hope that starts to work. Certainly something needs to be done about [[Special:BlockList|this]] and [[Special:Log/delete|this]]; if it doesn't, what are some alternatives? This is cluttering the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and, honestly, bringing the general productivity of the admins down--any time we devote to the wiki is spent blocking and deleting spam.

How does Wikipedia handle things like this? --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 20:46, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:What I'm finding so far is that spammers use a lot of different IPs. There are some discernible blocks of IP addresses that can be range blocked, but range blocks will probably only catch half of them on a good day. I have to be careful not to block an overly broad range, as that would run the risk of blocking potential legitimate users. I'm also checkusering only the confirmed spammers, not expected spammers, because with the latter I have to assume there's a slight chance they're a legitimate user (it happens; I had one contact me on FA a couple of weeks ago). To your last question, I'm not sure; maybe GR know more, or you could ask over there. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:Wikipedia has custom checks, lots of people watching for spammers, and makes heavy use of [[mw:Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] - unfortunately I am not privy to their exact filter settings - as well as the layers of protection which we already have, including most of the standard [[mw:Manual:Combating spam|spam combat techniques]]. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:36, 6 March 2015 (EST)

===Account spamming===
Are there any other admins besides me (and of course yourself) who have CheckUser authority? I haven't always been very active on WikiFur for the last couple of years, and as I'm sure you're aware we had a problem with account spamming. Recently I've resumed running CheckUser and adding IP range blocks, which has helped a lot, but now I'm concerned that if I don't visit WikiFur for a few days the account spamming I'll have a lot of cleanup to do when I check in again, and the problem would get steadily worse the longer I'm away. Thus I'm thinking it would be better if there were other admins who have CheckUser authority and know how to use it.

Other questions related to this:
# On a couple of recent days, there have been something like 50 accounts created from the same IP address. Would it be possible to limit how many new accounts can be created from the same IP address per day to no more than one or two?
# I'd be happy to create a page with instructions how I use CheckUser to come up with range blocks, but I'd be uncomfortable with the page being publicly viewable, since it might give away information that spammers could use to evade blocks. Is there a way to make a page viewable to admins only?
# Can we throttle the rate of edits, particularly for new accounts? We've had at least one recent instance of a bot account vandalizing dozens of articles per minute. (A feature to revert all recent edits by one user in one fell swoop would also be helpful in dealing with type of situation.)

I think I fixed it... so if I have then ignore this

I noticed my websites Page (Fluffywaddles) was vandalized (and someone with the power to protect the page did a revision and locked the page with the vandalism still on there) The owner says "Pol Pot" instead of Spirit Silverwind, this change was made by a ip 69.55.193.129 then Spirou came did a minor edit which doesn't seem to remove the "Pol Pot", Which should be Spirit Silverwind

I don't mind the page being locked and in-fact I recommend it, but could it at least be locked with the correct information :)?

Thanks! for your time.

== Infobox Convention ==

Regarding http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_convention,

I'm curious your thoughts on changing the the convention infobox line for "final" to either be renamed "last", or an additional line for "last" be added.

"Last" would allow ongoing conventions to list a more recent date than their first date, but still allow conventions which no longer exist to list a final date.

I would also like to see a line added for "next", but I honestly don't know if that adds as much value.

--[[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Hmm! My thoughts on this:
:* The initial goal of this field was to indicate both that a convention has ended. As you say, "Final" is inappropriate for a running convention.
:* The word "Last" has a similar implication to "Final". "Latest" (or "Most recent") might be more suitable. When a convention is determined to have ended, "Latest" would be converted to "Final".
:* Infoboxes should be accurate, like the rest of the article. "Final" is easy enough because it is possible to determine when a series of conventions has ended; but it may be up to a year after. "Latest" could be updated immediately; but it also becomes inaccurate every year.
:Overall I'm in favour of your idea… bearing in mind the caveat that someone will have to update every article using it on an annual basis. (Of course, there may be other updates needed in any case, such as to a list list of convention instances.)
:I think "next" is more suitably presented in the lede; it's the first place the reader looks, and likely to be of more immediate use than when the convention ''has'' occurred. Not having this in the infobox would be a good way of avoiding duplication of that information. When the convention is over, the date currently in the lede can be moved to the new infobox field. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:42, 14 January 2016 (EST)

Hey,

Was wondering the the page on me could be deleted. I already made a post about this at the help desk but I figured I would reach out directly as I am really keen on getting it down. I would also be interested in having personal exclusion applied to me because, again, I am pretty big on personal Internet privacy. I don't want a stupid thing I did in middle school without a grasp of what an internet footprint was, as well as the subsequent addition of even more information by people who probably mean well, biting me in the ass.

I jumped through quite a few hoops to get back onto this original account from way back when I made the page initially. If you want me to contact you by email as well to make doubly sure let me know.

Massive thanks ahead of time,
Glitch

== Removal of page request ==

Hi there. My page is intermittently the subject of anonymous vandalism. Rather than creating more work for you guys, I think it might be easier if I just request its deletion. I hardly think I'm important enough that I need to be on WikiFur, although I am important enough to be attacked apparently.

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Marko_the_Rat

:I can start [[WikiFur:Personal exclusion|that process]] if you want, but if anonymous vandalism is the problem, wouldn't it make more sense just to protect it from that?

Please don't use indefinite IP blocks on IP addresses used for [[Wikipedia:Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol|DHCP pools]], as it may inadvertently block other users after the need for the block has passed.

::You ''can'' just search for the IP address and click links until you get to a whois result for that IP address, but if you want to be more precise, go to https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/ and select "Search resource objects in all available databases", then enter the address into the query box (not the one at the top right) and hit "Search". That should give you the full address block which that address was allocated from (as "route") and the organization responsible for it. You can usually find out fairly quickly whether it's an residential ISP or a server host by searching on the name. If it's ''clearly'' a server, it might be worth blocking the entire block for a year, because we shouldn't have edits from servers. If it's an ISP - and it's actually necessary to block, not just revert and warn - block the individual IP address for hours/days/weeks as appropriate. If that doesn't work, try moving up to the IP range block(s) [e.g. "1.2.3.4/23") they used as identified by the query results, but I'd suggest only blocking for a few days/weeks unless absolutely necessary because others using those IP addresses won't be able to edit - that can be up to 65536 addresses per block for a /16. Also, be aware that a range-block message will be shown to anyone from that range who clicks "edit", not just the person who caused the range to be banned. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 23:01, 6 February 2017 (EST)

== A "New" Furry ==

Hello sir. I am a "new"furry and am curious if the rumor is tru that furries sometimes use actual fur for their fursuits. I am realy anti-fur and would second think joining and supporting this fandom if ever. Thanks nonetheless Greenreaper.

== Updating an old article (also hello!) ==

Hey GreenReaper, long time no speak!

After some five years on hiatus from the fandom I've opted to start making my return. Whilst it's probably not smart to jump right back into adminning on WikiFur (and don't worry, I'm not), I think it would be a nice start to update [[Alexander Grey|my very own article]] with five years of changes. I'm bringing this up to you because a *lot* of stuff has changed on my end, including my legal name and gender identity. Additionally, the actual Alexander Grey has been demoted to being one of a roster of characters rather than a fursona, so I'd probably be moving the article elsewhere too given it's regarding a person and not a character. Similarly, I'd probably remove a lot of content regarding character history, evolution, etc. to refocus it on just myself as an individual.

If you've no problem with any of that, cool! Otherwise, how're you doing? {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 15:36, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

== [Request] Delete Account - Delete Article ==

Hello GreenReaper, I'd love to completly delete my stuff here, on Wikifur please.

I did only 1 article here and it's non-existant character anymore and I'd love to get my account deleted too.

If I need to browse on Wikifur, I'll do it as a guest.

Thank you for reading me and hopefuly you can complete my request, I'd really appreciate that.

== Useless page? ==

How do I have a wiki page about me deleted? I'm really not that interesting. User: Rizzell

Hello greenreaper,

There seems to be someone making harassing remarks and false statements on the oggywolf page. I've left them for now, but wanted to bring them to your attention.

== Name Change ==

Hihi.. I'd like to do a name change for my page, "Harvest Coyote".. You can Telegram me @HarvestSnowpaw or hangouts harvestcoyote@gmail.com to verify.. Thanks.. {{unsigned|107.77.76.87}}

== Rollback ==

Hey there, I’d like to request rollback privileges if I could. A lot of my work here stems from RC Patrol, and there’s been a couple cases of multi edit vandalism that I’ve fixed using the normal undo and copying an old revision. I feel like I have a good grasp now of what is clear vandalism. Now a days if I’m unsure about whether something should be reverted or not I err on the side of caution and leave it to someone more experienced or ask on the article talk page. —[[User:FrostTheFox|FrostTheFox]] ([[User_talk:FrostTheFox|talk]]) 17:41, 18 March 2018 (EDT)

== Delete Request ==

Heya, I had created a page for myself a long time ago as opposed to just making an account info page. http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Deretto_Eevee

== Request For Personal Exclusion ==

Hello,

Please exclude the following page entry about me from WikiFur: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Darmon_C._Thornton

The reasons for exclusion are for personal privacy and career/professional concerns, as I've been informed that the article is the fourth link related to my name on a Google search. I left furry fandom in 2002 and I've had no involvement since. I don't hate furries, and no longer have any interests in the fandom itself. Please reply to me via email at [Darmon DOT Thornton AT Gmail DOT com] should you need to contact me for verification.

Sincerely,

Darmon Thornton

== Request Removal of Phrixus page ==

I used the email page to try and contact you but have heard nothing. I realize this is not your job, but I figured the SPF record might have had a thing or two to say about it. Regardless, I would like the article of Phrixus removed from the wiki, and I no longer have the email associated with the old account that created it.

I did not receive a password reset email for my previous account or a confirmation email for this one.

they changed things like ''chief of news'' to ''lap dog'' and other vile things like this and frankly im sick of it. i was hoping you could lock my page so only me and other admins can edit it. please help me. i have a small following of fans and i believe im starting to become a target

== Please remove this page about me ==

Hello, I was made aware some years ago that a page was made about me when I was part of the fandom with my full DOB and residential information about me. At the time I asked if it could be (and tried to have it) removed it and in the end it was agreed to at least remove my full DOB (which I still don't know how whoever posted this got).

I'd like to just have the whole page removed if possible. I never wanted this and it really freaks me out to this day that someone made this page. All the related links are dead or non existent and I would rather not have this pop up every time someone googles my old usernames. (this happened recently) The page in question is the one below. Please refer to the fact that all the related accounts/references don't exist any longer.

== Would you mind removing my accounts? ==

Hi there, Foxen here...I'd like to have the article of "Foxen B. Perry" removed and not be apart of your site any longer simply because it's outdated and people are using it to harass me and it contains my birthday and old location in the United States. I've also changed and become more of a private person and gone into therapy and afraid my therapist will come across my old drawings and have been doing everything I can to remove everything until further notice. I created the Wiki when I was still pretty young and dumb and didn't realize it would attract so much attention.

Also if you could remove the accounts of "Foxen1985" and "FoxenBPerry80s" I'd love that too..I do not want anything too personal up online any longer... you have my private email address on file I think?

I do apologize if this comes off as a little rude... I'm just wanted to be more of a private person.. please and thank you and have a wonderful day :)

I was looking for website templates and found this whole section rather overwhelming. Since I created a new template (for Flickr) and found out there was already one for Weasyl, I decided to try organizing the User Page Templates a bit. However, since I'm not sure if that's supposed to be protected or not, I did a mockup in my [[User:GingerM/Sandbox|sanbox]]. If you like it, I can cut-n-paste the whole thing into the Templates/User_Page_Templates page. I may have a look at the other template sub-pages and see if they need organizing as well.

Hello. I am Charem, the one who https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Charem is written about.

This page is both severely outdated and severely unprofessional. Also, I'm currently under attack on other websites and this page and what's on it is being used as ammo against me further.

I made an edit removing most of the information and asking for page closure to immediately remove this legitimate problem, but a staff member reverted the page back to how it was before and insisted I contact a creator. So here I am.

I would appreciate my page simply being blanked/closed for the time being, until I can update it more thoroughly. I really hope this request can be responded-to quickly. Thank you.

If my identity needs to be proven, please contact me at any of my known contacts and I can verify this request.

==Proposed 'spammer' tag for informal patrollers to use==
I've noticed a fair number of spam articles of late so I've created a template to mark them as such, since I am not an admin (nor do I wish to become one! :D).

The template is <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Spammer|Spammer]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>. I'm putting this suggestion to each of the curators; I hope this is a useful tool. If not, feel free to delete it.

'''The Lion King MUCK''' is a [[role-playing]] [[MUCK]] based on the [[The Lion King|movie]], as well as on African wildlife in general.

<div style="float:right">__TOC__</div>
The Lion King MUCK was founded by [[Joshua C. Templin]], and was originally based on his fan fiction ''[[The Tales of Tanabi]]''. Storyline changes have included resets of the [[Feature Character]]s from the movie.

== Feature Characters ==
Feature characters are the official characters who appeared in Disney's The Lion King and its sequels. In the MUCK's early years, Mufasa, Sarabi, Simba, Nala, Scar, and Scar's fan fiction 'son' were all present and active on the MUCK as adults. Over the years, various attempts were made to 'reset' the feature characters and storylines with new players, however, most of the selected players connected to the MUCK very little if at all, and the attempts largely failed.

In October 2011, an announcement was made that the feature characters would be relaunched, in a long plot following the movies that will stretch over two years real time. Ketekh posted 2011 FC Re-launch Announcement, describing the goal "to introduce new characters that accomplish several goals: they fill the role of Feature Character; they allow us to tell the history of “The Lion King” without changing timelines; and they give us the opportunity to reinvigorate the MUCK with new stories, new blood, and new players."<ref name="fc2011">http://www.tlkmuck.org/index.php?title=2011_FC_Re-launch_Announcement October 1, 2011 by Ketekh. Retrieved October 10, 2011.</ref> Ketekh also stated, "We have three alternatives at this point aside from the path I’ve chosen for us: Leave the Pride Lands empty; allow Player Characters to move in; or shut down the MUCK. For me, none of those are viable options and re-launching our Feature Characters has me more excited about our MUCK than I have been in a very long time. [...] The new characters being introduced tonight are Mohatu, an adult lion; his mate Tetema, an adult lioness; and their newborn son, Ahadi."<ref name="fc2011"/>

Ketekh had planned a multi-year story arc, broken up into 33 chapters. Monthly updates were to be posted to The Lion King MUCK's website.<ref>http://www.tlkmuck.org/index.php?title=2011_FC_Re-launch_Announcement</ref> Only the first two chapters were ever posted.<ref>http://www.tlkmuck.org/index.php?title=Under_the_Baobab</ref>

The multi-year story arc was attempted again in 2019, coinciding with the 2019 The Lion King movie. Much like in 2011, only the first two chapters were ever posted. <ref>http://www.tlkmuck.org/mwiki/index.php?title=Under_the_Baobab</ref>

== Rules ==

Since September 10, 2006, players are automatically "asked to agree to the rules every 90 days" upon connecting to the MUCK.<ref><tt>Thank you, your acknowledgment has been recorded. You will be asked to agree to the rules every 90 days.</tt> Automatic message on The Lion King MUCK, in response to typing yes after <tt>Please enter YES to signify that you have read and agree to abide by the rules of the muck:</tt> Retrieved May 9, 2007.</ref>

=== Adult Male Lions ===

Prior to July 1998, AMLs were extremely limited on the muck. In an effort to keep them from overrunning the muck, and because there was no special title for pride leaders, there was a 'waiting list' of sorts that male lions went on to when they became adolescent. When the wizards saw fit (usually due to population growth or loss of a previous AML) they would have a 'mantlement' ceremony and allow the top adolescent on the list who was eligible to be granted the species of 'Lion' which meant they were eligible to lead a pride.

The rule as stated in the July 1998 revision of the rules and policies was that, discounting [[feature character]]s, "there is a limit of ONE(1) AML per player at any given time."<ref name="1998rules">[http://www.limitless.org/~dsauve/maps/tlkrlz14.txt The Lion King MUCK Policies and Regulations v1.4]. July 16, 1998 revision. Retrieved November 4, 2006.</ref> Players could have more than one male lion character, but it had to be a cub, juvenile, or adolescent. The rules as of February 2002 stated "we will only be allowing ONE male lion per player"<ref name="2002rules">[http://web.archive.org/web/20021208172118/http://tlkmuck.org/rules.html Rules, Policies and Regulations v3.0]. February 23, 2002 revision. (Copy on The Lion King MUCK website, stored at the Internet Archive.)</ref> which allowed each player to have one male lion character of any age.

In October 2005, the rules were relaxed to allow each player to have up to two male Lion characters.<ref>[http://www.tlkmuck.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=106 Male Lion Limit Raised] forum post on tlkmuck.org. Posted October 23, 2005 by [[Ketekh]].</ref> In June 2007, the rules were relaxed again to allow male lion characters to start at any age, as can any other character, and to remove the aging restrictions; previously a male lion character had to spend three months at each stage of cub, juvenile, and adolescent before reaching adulthood. The limit of two male lion characters per player remained.

=== Prides ===

Prior to July 1998, there were no official pridal rules. Any character that held the species of 'Lion' was entitled to have a pride. In an effort to make a distinction between AMLs and lion kings, a program called the Leonine Monitoring Program (LMP) was introduced. The limit on the number of AMLs the muck could have total was lifted, and the LMP was introduced to have 'automated' control over lion characters.

Under the rules of the LMP, once a lion turned adult, they were given the species 'Adult Lion.' A lion then had to spend a minimum of 3 months as an adult before he could apply for a pride. Once a lion had 5 lionesses listed in his pride and had been adult for 3 months, he was given the species 'Lion King.' If he dropped beneath 5 lionesses, his pride was disbanded and he was returned to the species of 'Adult Lion.' Only one king existed per pride, although some ICly had more than one king. After a lion had been adult for a year and a half (king for 15 months), he was given the species 'Elder Lion' and no longer eligible for kingship. Lionesses who were part of a pride were given the species 'Lioness' while those not part of one were listed as 'Nomadic Lioness'.

The LMP was disposed of sometime in 2001 or early 2002, and for a while all species remained as they were at its disposal. In early 2002, the rules were adjusted to drop the adult and elder distinctions. Any adult lion was simply listed as 'Lion' and kings had the species 'Lion King.' The naming of prides also returned to manual status, and was limited to the average number of peak connections during a given month. (The highest number of prides there were under this system was 3.) The rules stated that a king had to maintain 5 lionesses in his pride and have an average online time of 12 hours per week during a four-week rolling period. These rules were not often enforced, leading to a couple of the prides growing stagnant.

In June 2007, the rules for lion kings and official prides were changed: the wizards "dropped the limit on the number of prides that can exist on the muck, and adjusted some of the numbers required in terms of membership (dropped the number down to 3 lionesses and an additional 2 lions of any age/gender) AND adjusted pridal online times to include the pride as well as the king."<ref><tt>IMPORTANT: New male lion and pride rules!</tt> June 23, 2007 post by [[Jioni]] to the Muck Announcements Board on The Lion King MUCK. Accessed June 21, 2007.</ref> Under the new rules about prides, there is "a five year (RL) maximum time period in which a character can start a pride which begins the day a lion becomes an adult. After this period has passed, male lions will no longer qualify to start a pride."<ref><tt>Pridal (Kings) Policy v3.0 06/18/2007</tt> retrieved by typing <tt>news prides</tt> on The Lion King MUCK. Accessed June 21, 2007.</ref>

The policy as revised in November 2009 includes a section on multiple kings, specifying that in addition to "both Kings must meet[ing] the requirements", for "each additional King, a pride is required to gain the support of two additional lionesses and one leonine of any age or gender".<ref><tt>Pridal (Kings) Policy v3.1 11/14/2009</tt> retrieved by typing <tt>docs prides</tt> on The Lion King MUCK. Accessed November 23, 2009.</ref>

=== Healers ===

Since at least 1998, the rule has been that only [[primate]]s (and to a lesser degree, [[meerkat]]s) ''i.e.'' animals considered to have opposable thumbs, can be healers.<ref name="1998rules"/> At least one other MUCK, [[Endless Round]], advertised a policy of not restricting healer characters in such a way.

The rules as revised in August 2006 state that "Players are welcome to roleplay healer characters if they wish, however if a task requires opposable thumbs, then your character must have opposable thumbs."<ref name="2006rules">[http://www.tlkmuck.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=170 TLKMuck Rules v4.5] forum post on tlkmuck.org. Posted August 31, 2006 by [[Ketekh]].</ref>

=== Interspecies mating ===

Until at least 2000, interspecies relationships, both romantic and parental, were common on The Lion King MUCK. Since at least 1998, the policy statement was that "the administration STRONGLY ADVISES AGAINST interspecies mating" and "NO offspring may happen of such union".<ref name="1998rules"/> The rules as revised in February 2002 have no mention of interspecies relationships; nor does the August 2006 revision. Even though not mentioned in the rules, cross-species are not allowed on the muck.{{fact}}

=== TinySex ===

Explicit sexual roleplay ([[TinySex]], or TS) was allowed on The Lion King MUCK prior to 2006. In the first few years, this policy was vague. The rules as revised in July 1998 stated that "The policy regarding TS is to restrict it to PRIVATE areas", that the activity not involve incest, pedophilia, or rape, and that a player involved not be a minor.<ref name="1998rules"/> According to the 2002 revision of the rules, "There are only two issues with this. It must be done in PRIVATE rooms, and it CANNOT be with a minor."<ref name="2002rules">[http://web.archive.org/web/20021208172118/http://tlkmuck.org/rules.html Rules, Policies and Regulations v3.0]. February 23, 2002 revision. (Copy on The Lion King MUCK website, stored at the Internet Archive.)</ref>

In August 2006, the rules were changed to include the statement that "sexually explicit content and activities have no appropriate location within our system.".<ref name="2006rules">[http://www.tlkmuck.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=170 TLKMuck Rules v4.5] forum post on tlkmuck.org. Posted August 31, 2006 by [[Ketekh]].</ref> Two new MUCKs, [[Otherlands]] and [[Romance in the Savannah]], opened in the wake of this decision; both allowed explicit sexual roleplay and the latter had the motto ''Adult Friendly African RP''.

=== Elders ===

From 1998-2002, the only elders were male lions who had been adult for a year and a half and were no longer eligible to start a pride. It was a forced aging, and many players of male lions felt it took away from some of their freedom to roleplay their character the way they wished.

In 2002, with the removal of the LMP, the elder species was dropped and all male lions simply had the species "Lion". The elders system was revamped to take on more of a "tribal elder" status, intended to be someone to look up to instead of the hated forced aging. Eligibility for elder status was opened to any species that lived in groups (lions, meerkats, hyenas, etc.), and the character had to have been a former leader of one of these groups. Available spots were limited, with one spot for each gender plus one extra spot per 100 characters of a species. Ultimately, no elders were ever named under this system.

The position of elder was revived on January 10, 2008, expanding eligibility to characters of any species, not merely ones who had been leaders of groups. The title "Elder" is placed before the character's species name in the species field. It is an honorary position denoting the character is aged and wise, and may cross territorial boundaries at will. A character must have nominations from ten different people to be considered for elder status, and elder status is optional to the character. To be considered, the character must have been an adult for at least two years, must never have broken the MUCK rules, and must have good roleplay skills. The title of elder can be revoked if the character breaks the MUCK rules or abuses the position.

=== Pride Lands Policy ===

A Pride Lands Policy was added and went into effect on July 1, 2009. It includes provisions that "Occupancy of the Pride Lands will be determined by the wizards." and "Only leonine prides may occupy the Pride Lands as rulers. This is not intended as a discriminatory action, but rather to keep the theme of the muck aligned with the theme of the movie upon which it is based." A limitation is that "A player may roleplay the ruler of the Pride Lands for no more than five years." At the end of this period, "the wizards may - at their discretion - appoint the next ruler and/or allow the existing ruler to continue in a temporary capacity until a successor is chosen."<ref>news plpolicy.

== Species ==

This textual roleplaying environment has a rather high population of [[lion]]s (as might be expected) including three official Kings and Prides. [[Leopard]]s (as well as their melanistic individuals, listed as [[panther]]s) are also common, as are [[cheetah]]s, [[hyena]]s, and other African species.{{unref}}

It is common for there to be exclusively lion characters active on the MUCK at any given time.{{cn}}

== Early years ==

In the early years of the MUCK, it was common for characters to pair up and reside together in private rooms (usually titled "(name) and (name)'s (domicile)." That declined over the years, particularly with the banning of TinySex in 2006, and most rooms are now public.

=== Guest characters ===

From 1995, The Lion King MUCK had a system of guest characters; these characters could become permanent, without the g. in front of the name, after a week.<ref name="1995info">[http://groups.google.com/group/rec.arts.disney.announce/msg/f0b26ff828723158?dmode=source TLKMuck Info and FAQ]. October 16, 1995 post to rec.arts.disney.announce by [[Joshua C. Templin]].</ref> By December 1996, guest characters were still described in the rules and policies, but were no longer being created; new characters were created without the g.

== Server and website ==

The Lion King MUCK's server address, previously tlk.otterspace.com, changed to tlk.muck.limitless.org in March 1999.

The Lion King MUCK's website used to be located at http://www.thumper.net/tlkmuck/. In 2002 the website was redesigned by [[Nalina]] and at a new address, tlkmuck.org.

'''Krystal''' is a fictional [[fox|vixen]] character created by Nintendo and Rare for the Nintendo 64 game ''[[Dinosaur Planet]]''. Her role in that game was intended to be a playable primary character, but in the revolutionary introduction of the Nintendo GameCube, her role changed. The game ''Dinosaur Planet'' was scrapped and its elements were modified and altered into ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]''. Her playable status was made short, reduced to basically the tutorials, and she became the "damsel in distress" in the game who was trapped because she could channel spirits.

[[File:Krystal1.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Krystal, as she appears in ''Star Fox Adventures'']]

Her popularity has been noticed by Nintendo, and in a joint cooperation effort with Namco, she became a primary character in the [[Star Fox]] universe. Krystal's role was advanced when Namco gained permission to reuse her in the video game ''Star Fox: Assault'' as a pilot and a playable character in the multiplayer mode. It is in this game that it was introduced that she was a telepath, a fact that was not all too useful in the game, but was used as a cutscene plot device to launch a mission. It also confirmed the romantic connection between her and Star Fox leader, [[Fox McCloud]].

[[File:Krystal_old.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Krystal, as she would have appeared in ''Dinosaur Planet'']]

In the game ''Star Fox Command'', it is revealed that Fox and Krystal's relationship blossomed, but Fox was concerned over Krystal's safety and asked her to leave the Star Fox team. Upset over his decision, Krystal left Fox, which kills their relationship, and hasn't been seen since. During the course of the game, it was discovered that Krystal joined the Cornerian Army as a pilot, and during the Anglar invasion, joined Star Wolf. She was once again a short-lived playable character. The game features multiple, conflicting endings, some of which show Krystal staying with Star Wolf and starting a relationship with Panther, another has her renaming herself Kursed and becoming a bounty hunter after being driven out of the Lylat System under accusations of betraying Fox. Even more endings have her rejoining Star Fox; one of the endings shows her and Fox settling down to start a family, having a son named Marcus. An interview with two of the game's producers, Q Games' Dylan Cuthbert and Nintendo's Takaya Imamura, suggest that ''none'' of the endings (perhaps not even the game itself) are considered canon, and that any sequel will ignore them.<ref> [http://ds.ign.com/articles/731/731088p2.html]</ref> Thus, the entire series became unfinished.

Outside of video games, she is a fairly popular and common character -- conspicuously, within [[Furotica]].<ref>[http://images.google.com/images?q=krystal+furry&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi A Google Image Search locates pornographic art in its inital results]</ref> She is often paired with many crossover characters from other fandoms, and the most popular pairing is when Krystal is intimately depicted with [[Renamon]], a fox-like, female [[Digimon]] (though in some cases, such as in artwork done by [[Yawg]], the two are depicted as rivals).

==Biography==

===Star Fox Adventures===
Krystal appeared wearing a skimpy golden attire mainly consisting of a golden bra-like top and nothing but a small white loincloth covering her bottom, leaving her midriff and belly button showing. She also wore jewelry, including two bands on her tail, silver braces on her arms and legs, shoulder pads, and white and golden sandals. She also sported a tiara on her head, and a necklace with a turquoise pendant. In this outfit, it is shown that Krystal has tattoos on her upper arms, both hips, and the bottom of her back.

Nothing was known about her earlier life, except that her home planet of Cerinia was destroyed, presumably by the spirit of Andross, leaving her as the only survivor. While searching the universe for the truth behind this, she answered a distress call from Planet Sauria. She rode on the back of a CloudRunner to [[General Scales]]'s battleship, which knocked her staff out of her hands in the process. Scales was responsible for the attack on Sauria and threw Krystal over the edge, but the CloudRunner took her to Krazoa Palace. Krystal then entered a Krazoa Shrine and got the first Krazoa Spirit by completing the Test of Observation. However, after she released the Krazoa Spirit, she was trapped inside a crystal by Andross, who began to drain her energy.

When Fox got all the remaining five Krazoa Spirits, the sixth when Andross forced Scales to give it to him, Andross used Krystal's power to control and absorb the Krazoa Spirits and bring himself back to life. Krystal was released from the crystal she was imprisoned in and Fox saved her from falling to her death. Krystal took her staff back from Fox and shot fireballs at Andross, to no effect. Fox fought Andross in space and, with Falco's help, destroyed him once and for all, releasing the Krazoa Spirits who restored Sauria to normal. Afterwards, Krystal joined Star Fox.

===Star Fox Assault===
Krystal appeared wearing a blue body suit, tail bands, and braided sections in her "hair". She no longer wore a necklace, and her tiara was also different. This time, Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Krystal fought against the renmants of Andross's forces, led by Andross's nephew Andrew Oikonny. They defeated Oikonny on Fortuna, but he was destroyed by an aparoid moth which attacked Krystal. Fox defeated the moth. Answering a distress call on Katina, Krystal battled aparoids alongside Falco and Slippy, in arwings. When Pigma stole the core memory of an aparoid walker, containing the location of the homeworld, Star Fox went to Sargasso Station to find him. They fought against Wolf and his team, Leon and Panther, and Fox defeated them. Panther fell in love with Krystal and answered her question as to where Pigma was, saying he was on Fichina.

Krystal, Slippy, and Falco battled more aparoids on Fichina and eventually chased Pigma down into an asteroid field. Fox destroyed three enemies on Krystal's tail. Krystal often sensed a large enemy presence (though this dialogue is only heard if Fox has a high enough score at at least two points in the level). Eventually they reached Pigma, who was assimilated by the aparoids and merged with an aparoid spacecraft. Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Krystal defeated him, and he was destroyed, leaving only the Core Memory. Afterward, Krystal sensed a distress call from Sauria. Fox and Krystal fought the aparoids on foot while Slippy and Falco were in arwings. Krystal destroyed most of the aparoids in one of the temples of Walled City and Fox destroyed the aparoid hatchers, leading to victory and peace for Sauria for a long time to come. Fox and Krystal were reunited with Tricky, who made a comment about Fox and Krystal coming to Sauria for their honeymoon, although Fox denied that he and Krystal were in love ''yet''.

Corneria was decimated by aparoids so Star Fox fought off the aparoids there, including General Pepper whose ship was infected by aparoids. He was defeated by Fox and, thanks to Peppy, survived. Afterward Fox, Krystal, Falco, Slippy, Wolf, Leon, and Panther all participated in a dogfight against the aparoids to protect the Orbital Gate, which would teleport them to the homeworld once Slippy's father Beltino finished a selfdestruct device that would destroy all the aparoids if given to their queen. Once the device was finished they went to the homeworld and reached the core, although Wolf, Leon, and Panther distracted near invincible aparoids so Star Fox could reach the homeworld core and fight the aparoid queen. They defeated her and Fox launched the selfdestruct program into her. She suppressed it and escaped to create an antibody, but Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Krystal went after her and defeated her, causing the selfdestruct program to destroy her along with all the aparoids.

They escaped the aparoid homeworld before it blew up. According to Fox, Wolf's team survived, and Peppy, who was forced to crash the Great Fox into the shield so Star Fox could reach the core, also survived. They then have a reunion on Sauria.

===Star Fox Command===
Krystal appeared in a suit similar to her Assault suit, but the suit is pink and purple, and her tail bands are gone. The game takes place three years after Assault, where Fox, Falco, Slippy, and Krystal have saved Corneria from destruction. One day, Fox fired Krystal from his team, due to her safety issues. Broken-hearted, Krystal broke up with him by leaving Star Fox, and went far away. Little did Fox know that she joined the Cornerian Air Force for a while before she started her relationship with [[Panther Caruso]]. Then, she became a member of Star Wolf.

After putting an end to Dash's reign of terror with Venom, Fox finds Krystal, enjoying her time with Star Wolf in Katina. Feeling sorry for what he did, Fox begged Krystal to rejoin his team permanently. Although the outcome remained unknown, it can be shown that Krystal hated Fox so much, she stayed with Star Wolf. That way she can spend some more time with Panther. She would eventually stay with them forever, much to the dismay of everyone. Although Wolf O'Donnell, Leon Plikowski and Panther were saviors, Krystal was considered to be a traitor, who was treated badly. She would then abandon the Lylat System for good, due to her past (ranging from Cerinia's destruction to being hated by everyone) haunting her, change her name to Kursed, and begin her new life as a lonesome bounty hunter on Kew. Sometime later, Fox would find her again, yet he never recognized her.

==Trivia==
{{WikiFurNews|'Krystal sandwich' meme strikes Fur Affinity}}
Fan research has uncovered several pieces of deleted audio that show that Krystal would have had a bigger role in ''Star Fox Adventures'' than in the finished game. These include Krystal shouting warnings to Fox, asking Fox why he saved her without knowing who she was, and even stating that she would join the Star Fox team if Fox would kiss her. It has also been discovered that Krystal's messages to Fox when he finds her staff were originally in English.

An internet meme based on Krystal, trying to eat a sandwich is called "[[Krystal can't enjoy her sandwich]]".

Another meme based on her is the catch-phrase "Everyone's furry for Krystal".

The third meme based on her is "Krystal ruined Star Fox", in which some people hated her for appearing in the franchise, being more of a weak character instead of a strong character, just like the one in Dinosaur Planet.

Krystal also made a cameo appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, telling Fox and Falco to stop fighting. In addition, a trophy of her wearing her bodysuit from Assault is shown when awarded. Some stickers of her exist, too.

According to IGN, she became one of "the six faults of Star Fox", in which she was named a "blue-furred she-beast", and confirmed that "Fox never needed a love interest".

There is also a website called Krystal Archive, in which it is dedicated to her.

[[File:Sketchbook Guarnido.jpg|right|thumb|''Sketchbook Guarnido'']]
'''''Blacksad''''' is a French [[comic book]] series created by writer [[Juan Díaz Canales]] and artist [[Juanjo Guarnido]], former Spanish animators at the now defunct French branch of [[wikipedia:Walt Disney Feature Animation|Walt Disney Feature Animation]]. The first volume, titled ''Quelque part entre les ombres'' in France and simply ''Blacksad'' in the United States, was published in November 2000 by [[wikipedia:Dargaud|Dargaud]], the largest French comic book publisher.

The story is set in a ''[[wikipedia:film noir|film noir]]'' environment, in something that looks like the USA of the [[wikipedia:1940s|1940s]]. All of the characters are [[anthropomorphic]] animals, their specific species reflecting their personality and their part in the story.

== History ==

Though it was the creators' first attempt at a comic book, the first volume saw immense success, selling more than 200,000 copies in France. The book was quickly translated to German, English, and Spanish as well. Juanjo Guarnido received a large number of prizes for his impressive, lavish visualisation of the story. Juan Diaz Canales received several prizes as well, among these three nominations for the [[wikipedia:Eisner Award|Eisner Award]]s in 2004.

In the wake of success, the two creators published a book about the creation of the first volume, entitled ''Les dessous de l'enquête''. In March 2003 the second volume of the series, ''Arctic Nation'', was published.

Blacksad won two [[W:Eisner Award|Will Eisner Comic Industry Award]] at [[W:San Diego Comic-Con International|San Diego Comic-Con International]] 2013 for ''Best U.S. Edition of International Material'' and ''Best Painter/Multimedia Artist'' (interior art; Juanjo Guarnido).<ref>[http://www.comic-con.org/awards/eisners-current-info ''Will Eisner Comic Industry Award''] page on the [[W:San Diego Comic-Con International|San Diego Comic-Con International]] website. Retrieved July 21, 2013.</ref>

== Characters ==

* [[John Blacksad]] – A [[W:Hardboiled|hardboiled]] [[W:Private investigator|private investigator]], John Blacksad (a [[cat|black cat]]), was raised in a poor neighborhood and spent much of his youth running from the police. This and his service in [[W:World War II|World War II]] likely account for his above-average marksmanship and fighting skills. He also spent a year in college as a history major before being expelled. Like other hardboiled detectives, Blacksad narrates his stories, adding cynical commentary on the evils of the world around him. Unlucky in love, he never seems to be able to form a lasting relationship, often due to circumstances beyond his control. He usually wears a dark suit and [[W:Trench coat|trench coat]], and uses the alias John H. Blackmore on several fake IDs, including debt collector, FBI agent and customs officer.
* [[Weekly]] – Blacksad's occasional [[W:Sidekick|sidekick]], Weekly, a brown [[weasel|Least Weasel]] who doesn't like soap and water and has an odor problem, has a near-constant optimistic attitude, working as a [[W:Muckraker|muckraker]] for a [[W:Tabloid (newspaper format)|tabloid]] called the ''What's News''.
* '''Smirnov''' – A [[W:Police commissioner|police commissioner]] and friend of Blacksad, Smirnov (a brown [[German Shepherd]]), sometimes helps him to reach the rich and powerful which he himself cannot touch due to "pressure upstairs".

== Books ==
=== ''Quelque part entre les ombres'' (''Somewhere Within the Shadows'') ===
{{main|Somewhere Within the Shadows}}

''Somewhere Within the Shadows'' is the first graphic novel of the Blacksad series, published in 2000 for the French market by [[wikipedia:Dargaud|Dargaud]]. In the United States, the book was simply retitled '''''Blacksad''''' by now-defunct publisher iBooks in 2003.

=== ''Arctic Nation'' ===
{{main|Arctic Nation}}

''Arctic Nation'' is the second title in the series. It was published in 2003 by [[wikipedia:Dargaud|Dargaud]] for the French-speaking market, and republished in the United States in 2004 by iBooks for the English-speaking market.

This volume deals with inter-racial violence and [[wikipedia:racial segregation|racial segregation]] of the 1950s in a pseudo-American suburbia called ''The Line''. The book also obliquely addresses issues of economic depression, sexual repression and perversion, all intended to expose the social malaise and prejudice that exist beneath the apparently harmonious surfaces of communities.

=== ''Âme rouge'' (''Red Soul'') ===
{{main|Red Soul}}

In the third volume, Blacksad gets involved with a former Nazi scientist, Communist Sympathizers, and the FBI. This mirrors the 1950's elements of McCarthyism, fear of nuclear warfare, and the Red Scare.

=== ''L'Enfer, le silence'' (''A Silent Hell'') ===
{{main|Hell, Silence }}

In 1950's [[wikipedia:New_Orleans|New Orleans]], John Blacksad gets hired by [[wikipedia:Jazz|Jazz]] producer Faust to find the missing [[W:Pianist|pianist]] "Slow Hand" Sebastian, a gifted pianist with a difform arm and an addiction to hard drugs. While looking for him, Blacksad gets entangled in a past pharmaceutical scandal - and all goes to Hell when the music stops...

=== ''Amarillo'' ===
{{main|Amarillo}}

Taking place immediately after the events in ''Hell, Silence'', Blacksad is hired to deliver a [[wikipedia:Cadillac_Eldorado|Cadillac Eldorado]] to [[wikipedia:Tulsa,_Oklahoma|Tulsa]]. When it gets stolen by a down and out writer on the run from a murder, Blacksad finds himself in pursuit.

The '''Russian WikiFur''' ('''ВикиФур''') is the [[wikipedia:Russian language|Russian-language]] edition of [[WikiFur]].

==History==
The Russian WikiFur was one of the first, alongside the [[Spanish WikiFur]], to be launched exclusively on the wikifur.com domain, and is also, statistically, the fastest growing in article count. By March 14, 2010, the Russian article count numbered over 1000 (the 1000th article being [[:ru:Пинки и Брейн|Пинки и Брейн]], or [[Pinky and the Brain]]), the first non-English WikiFur edition to cross that threshold.<ref>[http://community.livejournal.com/wikifur/84660.html ''Russian WikiFur passes 1000-article mark''], by [[GreenReaper]] to {{lj-comm|wikifur}}</ref> By September 2011 it has passed 2000 articles. By April 2013 it has passed 3000 articles. By 03-2015 it has passed 4000 articles. By 07-2016 it has passed 5000 articles. By 11-2021 it has passed 6000 articles.

== Rules ==
The Russian WikiFur's rules were translated from English version, and the rule "You are the best judge of [what is related to furry community]" fully applies to the Russian version. Only a small part of Russian furry community contributes regularly, so there is more tolerance for coverage of non-fandom anthro topics. Some of the most detailed articles describe topics not prominently featured in [[furry fandom]], such as mainstream [[anthropomorphic]] races and characters; others describe borderline anthropomorphics, such as mythological creatures and [[monster]]s from [[RPG]]s. [[Otherkin]], [[therian]] and [[draconity|dragon]]s are considered sister-communities, and related articles are welcome.

There are fewer articles on people compared to English WikiFur.<ref>As of July 2010, there are about 6300 articles on people to 12 700 article count in English WikiFur (50%); there are 307 articles on people to 1218 article count in Russian WikiFur (25%)</ref> Most non-species articles have one main author, usually the creator, with others only making minor changes or expanding a little.{{fact}} Due to article count, there are a lot of red links; some of them are superscripted with links to Wikipedia instead of direct linking, to encourage new contributions.

In the summer of 2011, Russian WikiFur users has reached a consensus on the new policy about articles on people and communities. Before that, there was no exclusion policy, except for personal info exclusion by request, and no notability criteria. The new policy states that if a person is not notable ("notable" meaning that their actions affected many people), then that person can self-exclude using a simple procedure. They can also exclude specific non-notable facts from the article about themselves. Another topic governed by the policy is interpretations and coverage of conflicts: the requirements for proof and tone became more strict. The policy relieved the insecurity that a part of the community was feeling toward the WikiFur, and put an end to several ongoing exploits.{{fact}}

== Categories ==
Initially the category structure was the same as in English WikiFur, but it had some revisions. Due to Russian linguistics, articles about characters, races and people are placed in collective species categories (such as "[[Wolves]]", "[[Bats]]", etc.)<ref>This is also true for [[Polish WikiFur]], due to similarities between languages.</ref>. They are differentiated by additional categories. Articles about movies, novels, games and other works are categorized by prominent species (sometimes several). Articles that describe characters (except for people) or something with characters have "character type" template that puts a bodytype icon in the top right corner (such as "anthro", "[[toon]]" or "mythological"); it also places the article in a related category.

== Portals ==
There is a Portal namespace. As of July 2011, it contained one portal, on [[Feline|Felidae]], which had an automatic "Article of the day" block and sorted lists of felidae-related articles (such as "People with [[jaguar]] [[fursona]]s", "Novels with felidae", "Fictional felidae species").

The '''Russian WikiFur''' ('''ВикиФур''') is the [[wikipedia:Russian language|Russian-language]] edition of [[WikiFur]].

==History==
The Russian WikiFur was one of the first, alongside the [[Spanish WikiFur]], to be launched exclusively on the wikifur.com domain, and is also, statistically, the fastest growing in article count. By March 14, 2010, the Russian article count numbered over 1000 (the 1000th article being [[:ru:Пинки и Брейн|Пинки и Брейн]], or [[Pinky and the Brain]]), the first non-English WikiFur edition to cross that threshold.<ref>[http://community.livejournal.com/wikifur/84660.html ''Russian WikiFur passes 1000-article mark''], by [[GreenReaper]] to {{lj-comm|wikifur}}</ref> By September 2011 it has passed 2000 articles. By April 2013 it has passed 3000 articles. By 03-2015 it has passed 4000 articles. By 07-2016 it has passed 5000 articles.

== Rules ==
The Russian WikiFur's rules were translated from English version, and the rule "You are the best judge of [what is related to furry community]" fully applies to the Russian version. Only a small part of Russian furry community contributes regularly, so there is more tolerance for coverage of non-fandom anthro topics. Some of the most detailed articles describe topics not prominently featured in [[furry fandom]], such as mainstream [[anthropomorphic]] races and characters; others describe borderline anthropomorphics, such as mythological creatures and [[monster]]s from [[RPG]]s. [[Otherkin]], [[therian]] and [[draconity|dragon]]s are considered sister-communities, and related articles are welcome.

There are fewer articles on people compared to English WikiFur.<ref>As of July 2010, there are about 6300 articles on people to 12 700 article count in English WikiFur (50%); there are 307 articles on people to 1218 article count in Russian WikiFur (25%)</ref> Most non-species articles have one main author, usually the creator, with others only making minor changes or expanding a little.{{fact}} Due to article count, there are a lot of red links; some of them are superscripted with links to Wikipedia instead of direct linking, to encourage new contributions.

In the summer of 2011, Russian WikiFur users has reached a consensus on the new policy about articles on people and communities. Before that, there was no exclusion policy, except for personal info exclusion by request, and no notability criteria. The new policy states that if a person is not notable ("notable" meaning that their actions affected many people), then that person can self-exclude using a simple procedure. They can also exclude specific non-notable facts from the article about themselves. Another topic governed by the policy is interpretations and coverage of conflicts: the requirements for proof and tone became more strict. The policy relieved the insecurity that a part of the community was feeling toward the WikiFur, and put an end to several ongoing exploits.{{fact}}

{{User talk:GreenReaper/Header}}

== Question about my wikifur page ==

Hello, I was told by spirou to talk to you about my wikifur page.
I sent a note about it to your FA. It will be from the user "Fuzzlemuzzle".

Please read when you get the chance, thank you!

== 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? [[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. [[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. [[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. [[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. I have just turned off the advanced editing functions, and it still did it. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 13:03, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

===Tabyhunterwolf===
Hello? May I ask how to create a page? Why can't find a button to create a page. I am new to this wiki. I would love to contribute to this wiki website. --[[User:Tabyhunterwolf|Tabyhunterwolf]]([[User talk:Tabyhunterwolf|talk]]) (5 November 2019) (12:42 AM Malaysia Time)

== Disregard the email I just sent ==

You took care of it. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 21:44, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

Actually, now might be a good time to ask. I'd like to be able to fight vandalism with greater ease. And while it wouldn't have helped much in this last situation, would it be too much of me to request rollback privelages? [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 21:55, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

:Sure. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 22:01, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

Wow, really? I was honestly expecting a "I'm sorry, but..." (Especially considering my recent ousting as an EDiot.) Thanks! [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 22:06, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

:Just keep in mind [[Wikipedia:Vandalism#What is not vandalism|what is not vandalism]]. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 22:08, 2 July 2011 (EDT)

== 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]]) .

There is a discussion that needs your attention at [[Talk:Encyclopædia Dramatica (.ch)]] <[[User:Ô|o]]> 03:58, 26 July 2011 (EDT)
:I skimmed over it a few minutes ago, but it didn't seem like any consensus had been formed as to do anything that would require a [[WikiFur:Curators|curator]].

However, eBuddy works. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 16:12, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

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)
:We've had further conversation. This sort of thing happens every now and again in some cases. For the record, all I really told him about you was that you wouldn't respond well to vague threats - which was apparently correct. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:21, 27 July 2011 (EDT)

It's not that I thought you said anything bad, he just alluded to it enough that it seemed like something important. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 21:30, 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)

:The issue with UKFur should now be fixed - apparently there were some unexpected hiccups when the RBW posts were moved from "conventions" to "events", which have now been corrected. [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 11:06, 3 August 2011 (EDT)

Can you add the UKR (Ukraine) flag to flagdiv and Flags.png? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 09:07, 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. [I am going to cross-post this to your own Talk page just so you get this.] [[User:BlueOtter|BlueOtter]] 17:03, 17 August 2011 (EDT)

== Just updated some info ==

This is Cloudchaser Sakonige. I just edited "Cloudchaser Shaconage" and "Furry Dictionaries" to correct the spelling of my last name and on "Cloudchaser Shaconage" I updated the External Links. That of course has broken the link to "Cloudchaser Shaconage" from "Furry Dictionaries." How do I edit the main title of "Cloudchaser Shaconage" so "Shaconage" get changed to "Sakonige"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.247.129.251 ([[User talk:69.247.129.251|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/69.247.129.251|contribs]]) 07:47, 19 August 2011 (UTC) 

== Since both questions have been ignored, I'll post this here. ==

So you deleted the article; fair enough. However, while the other article continues to exist I find that a prime example of double standards. Also that you didn't allow a true discussion to be held about its deletion seems silly. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]][[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 17:17, 26 August 2011 (EDT)
:You mean the one about Blu Aardvark? If there's a consensus there to delete it, I'd be fine with that as well. As far as I'm aware, they haven't really been an issue here recently. As for the discussion, I saw four people in favour of deletion - five if you count me - one oppose (from the page creator), and one noncommittal response. If we were Wikipedia, it might be necessary to keep such pages around to inform those unaware of the situation, but I don't think that's the case here. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:19, 26 August 2011 (EDT)

I'm curious as to why you went through the process of deleting Equivamp's article, moving the revision over, and restoring the old edits. Wouldn't it have been quicker to just cut and paste, or am I overlooking something?--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 23:10, 4 September 2011 (EDT)

Brainwurms, Zaiger420, Thayo). I doubt that TGcomix wishes to be a constructive contributor here; his main goal seems to be recruitment. I doubt Tyciol will present any problems; it's TGcomix you really need to worry about. If you won't ban TGcomix in order to save your wiki from any problems he may present in the future, you should at least tell him that comments [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Tyciol&diff=343523&oldid=341592 such as this] aren't welcomed. --[[User:Michaeldsuarez|Michaeldsuarez]] 17:25, 11 September 2011 (EDT)

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. As mentioned above, policy and article content decisions on WikiFur are made through the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus of editors]], not handed out from above as in most websites, but I would be glad to advise you on how our system works and suggest how best to achieve your goals. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:53, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

== Removing pages created by me a long time ago ==

Hello, I was wondering whether I can have the pages for "Sparks (fan)" and "Syona Starlight" removed from this wiki. I am Syona, Sparks is my significant other. I am trying to scrub the net clean of what I can of any of our presence. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Darkeskunk|Darkeskunk]] ([[User talk:Darkeskunk|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Darkeskunk|contribs]]) .

== 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)

== Deletion of my article and all other mentions/page/etc ==

Hi! I would like to remove any real mention of me, the article on me, etc. I am now concerned about my privacy and the amount of information available about me on the internet, and would like to get rid of it as much as possible. You can contact me via the email listed in my preferences (I assume this is viewable by you?)

Thank you in advance :)

==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. If the original adder really wants to make that article, they can always do that. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:28, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== I wish to remove my character from Wikifur ==

I would like to remove my character's profile from wikifur. I cannot delete it, can you do that for me? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Jenesri|Jenesri]] ([[User talk:Jenesri|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Jenesri|contribs]]) .

:I'm presuming you want us not to cover you, as well as your character? What we typically offer is [[WikiFur:personal exclusion|personal exclusion]], since otherwise anyone could recreate an article if it was deleted. I have noted your request on the [[Talk:Jenesri|relevant discussion page]], and if there is no objection (which is likely), it will be excluded. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:55, 26 December 2011 (EST)

== Problems with Internet Explorer ==

It would appear IE still has problems editing the site (though it can view it just fine). Editing is possible if I make the changes, then click the "Changes" tab at the top before clicking Save. Not doing this results in me having to resart the internet. This is a brand-new computer; I am using the most updated version of IE. Yes, I know, that's what I get for using it in the first place, but I'm too busy to download Chrome. Is there any reason for this, or do you not know?

== A strange link ==

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.

==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.

: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.

== Removal of page histories ==

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.

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”)!

== 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.

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)
:This is not "I will be the only one editing this entry forever!" territory. I'm talking large input of material at one, most of the entries from diverse and obscure references (specially foreign). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:14, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

::I [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&limit=500&type=protect can't see evidence of use of this method] to protect personal editing projects. It is primarily used when there is a dispute over articles. If you have a large edit which you cannot complete within a matter of hours, it would be best to prepare it in your user space. I will expand on this in the ongoing discussion. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:16, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

:::Okay, then I will take Sine's suggestion, which is the most logical right know. I will remove (temporarily) the links that are currently not finished (not relinked, but just the ones with name and no description), move them to four folders for the four species/disambiguations on my Wikifur folder, and edit them offline, to be included back at a later time, so I can remove the edit tag, and open them to user traffic as of right now - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:25, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

== spam guy ==

i'm adding some new articles to the italian wiki,but another guy is putting spam around the pages( even the main one),so please block him,my account is "Escofal"(i can't log in to the eng wiki,only to the italian version of the site).That bad guy has an ip like "173.--"

:''Spammer blocked.'' --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:42, 7 November 2012 (EST)

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. Please use your new powers with restraint. :-) --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 16:46, 22 November 2012 (EST)

Thanks!

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).

: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)]].

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 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?

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.

==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)

Hi Green,

Seems Spirou has gotten involved in an editing dispute where he later used protection and false citations (IE: providing a citation for a fact when the citation is openly stated to be the mere speculation of an individual).

: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.

Could I suggest that administrators wait at least 72 hours before going on a deletion rampage.

: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.

:If there is understanding, but not acceptance, that's another matter. Some things are up for debate, but WikiFur is never going to be a free-for-all. (Few successful sites are.) We have tens of thousands of articles, now, and some level of consistency between them is important. Achieving it without treading on too many toes is an important skill for curators to master.

:The decline in contributions appears to be general. People spend more time on social media and less time contributing to group projects. Some sites (such as Wikia) have responded by making editing into more of a game, but I'd prefer to avoid this, as it encourages an "edits over quality" mindset. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:20, 4 August 2014 (EDT)

== I need some updated to my WikiFur entry! ==

Well, it's been awhile since it ever got any updates with the current stuff i'd been doing since 2011. [I'd done 3 gallery pieces for Conan O'Brien and TBS. And even got included in the CONAN ART HALL OF FAME.]

I am still doing fuzzy-art off-and-on! [It's been incorporated in my CONAN art.]

But you folks have helped me in the past. So I am holding out a bit of hope that you can help me out now!

I forgot my old account stuff because it's been so long since I used it here. So I had to sign up for a new account over here.

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

So yeah, I wanted to get an update on my stuff...even after Radio Comix and all of that! :D

Thank you so much for helping me.

Some guy just deleted a people page I put time and effort into writing without any sort of warning or consensus. It was an endearing, factual article about a friend of mine which was intelligent and well-written, and in my opinion up to WikiFur standards. I don't understand why anything which may have posed as a problem wasn't simply removed instead of the entire page being rudely deleted.

Could you please have a look at the deleted page and point out any issues to me so that the article may exist and my effort won't go to waste? [[User:Brian vermin|Brian vermin]] ([[User talk:Brian vermin|talk]]) 23:54, 13 October 2014 (EDT)

:Hey GR, thought it'd be fair to link you to [[User_talk:Brian_vermin#Interstellar_Shipping_.26_Trading_Co._article|a similar discussion]] between this user and Spirou.

::I understand what you outlined in the first policy, and I only directed this conversation to GR because 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.

== User creation ==

Is there anything we can add to the user creation/registration process that wouldn't be much of an inconvenience for real persons but which would trip up spammers/bots? Something like a captcha or an e-mail validation, maybe? There have been more than a hundred new accounts registered in the last two days, enough to clutter up the recent changes quite a bit, and all but a few of them were blocked as expected or confirmed spammer accounts. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 16:40, 2 March 2015 (EST)

:We have always had a captcha (the math puzzle, which is custom for WikiFur, and usually works better than ReCAPTCHA), as well as other defenses against automated editing. However, over time, spammers tend to degrade these. I'll be looking at this once I've slept. Requiring an authenticated email address is an option, but it would prevent anonymous editors, which I'd hope to avoid if possible. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 19:50, 2 March 2015 (EST)

::Is there a way for an admin like me to see what IP addresses were used to create these accounts? If so, I could look through these for any patterns or ranges that could be dealt with using range blocks. I don't expect this would stop all of the spammer accounts, but it might allow us to take out a significant fraction of them. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 11:43, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:::You now have access to [[Special:CheckUser]] which should provide you access to this information. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:35, 4 March 2015 (EST)

::::All right, I've been running CheckUser on confirmed spammers for about three days now, and have added a few range blocks . One thing I've discovered, however, is that blocking a spammer is not automatically blocking the IP address they used, and within those few days there are some IP addresses that have been repeat offenders. If it's supposed to block the IP, it's not working. Is that something that can be looked into? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:::::Automatic blocks (used if the option to block their IP address is ticks) take action, by default, [[mw:Manual:$wgAutoblockExpiry|for a day]]. That may not be long enough. I will increase it to two weeks. Nowadays it should unblock the IP address if you unblock the person involved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::::A day might be long enough for the majority of vandals but it seems much too short for dealing with spammers. I'm using 1 year for the range blocks I've been applying; let me know if you think that's too long (or too short). IP blocks get reassigned, and I have to be especially conservative about blocking wider ranges below /24 (the absolute lowest I'll go is /16 and it might not allow me to go any lower). It's tempting to throw up a /24 block on every spammer IP but I probably won't go that far. As I told Equivamp below, we should be careful not to overblock IPs of potential legitimate users. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:44, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::When blocking spammers, could you please select 'Confirmed spammer' as the block reason? That greatly simplifies my task of figuring out which blocked users are spammers for whom I should run checkuser and potentially place an IP range block. Thanks. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 14:09, 5 August 2015 (EDT)

===IP range blocking===

I certainly hope that starts to work. Certainly something needs to be done about [[Special:BlockList|this]] and [[Special:Log/delete|this]]; if it doesn't, what are some alternatives? This is cluttering the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and, honestly, bringing the general productivity of the admins down--any time we devote to the wiki is spent blocking and deleting spam.

How does Wikipedia handle things like this? --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 20:46, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:What I'm finding so far is that spammers use a lot of different IPs. There are some discernible blocks of IP addresses that can be range blocked, but range blocks will probably only catch half of them on a good day. I have to be careful not to block an overly broad range, as that would run the risk of blocking potential legitimate users. I'm also checkusering only the confirmed spammers, not expected spammers, because with the latter I have to assume there's a slight chance they're a legitimate user (it happens; I had one contact me on FA a couple of weeks ago). To your last question, I'm not sure; maybe GR know more, or you could ask over there. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

I think I fixed it... so if I have then ignore this

I noticed my websites Page (Fluffywaddles) was vandalized (and someone with the power to protect the page did a revision and locked the page with the vandalism still on there) The owner says "Pol Pot" instead of Spirit Silverwind, this change was made by a ip 69.55.193.129 then Spirou came did a minor edit which doesn't seem to remove the "Pol Pot", Which should be Spirit Silverwind

I don't mind the page being locked and in-fact I recommend it, but could it at least be locked with the correct information :)?

"Last" would allow ongoing conventions to list a more recent date than their first date, but still allow conventions which no longer exist to list a final date.

I would also like to see a line added for "next", but I honestly don't know if that adds as much value.

--[[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Hmm! My thoughts on this:
:* The initial goal of this field was to indicate both that a convention has ended. As you say, "Final" is inappropriate for a running convention.
:* The word "Last" has a similar implication to "Final". "Latest" (or "Most recent") might be more suitable. When a convention is determined to have ended, "Latest" would be converted to "Final".
:* Infoboxes should be accurate, like the rest of the article. "Final" is easy enough because it is possible to determine when a series of conventions has ended; but it may be up to a year after. "Latest" could be updated immediately; but it also becomes inaccurate every year.
:Overall I'm in favour of your idea… bearing in mind the caveat that someone will have to update every article using it on an annual basis. (Of course, there may be other updates needed in any case, such as to a list list of convention instances.)
:I think "next" is more suitably presented in the lede; it's the first place the reader looks, and likely to be of more immediate use than when the convention ''has'' occurred. Not having this in the infobox would be a good way of avoiding duplication of that information. When the convention is over, the date currently in the lede can be moved to the new infobox field. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:42, 14 January 2016 (EST)

== Spammer IP range blocks ==

Hi. Just wanted to give you a heads-up that we've reached the one-year anniversary of when I started running checkuser and imposing spammer IP range blocks. That means those blocks are going to start expiring and we may see an uptick in spam traffic if spammers are still using some of those IP addresses, which I will reblock as needed. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 12:42, 7 March 2016 (EST)

== Requesting Page Deletion and Exclusion ==

Hey,

Was wondering the the page on me could be deleted. I already made a post about this at the help desk but I figured I would reach out directly as I am really keen on getting it down. I would also be interested in having personal exclusion applied to me because, again, I am pretty big on personal Internet privacy. I don't want a stupid thing I did in middle school without a grasp of what an internet footprint was, as well as the subsequent addition of even more information by people who probably mean well, biting me in the ass.

I jumped through quite a few hoops to get back onto this original account from way back when I made the page initially. If you want me to contact you by email as well to make doubly sure let me know.

Massive thanks ahead of time,
Glitch

== Requesting a page delete/exclusion ==

A group of old friends made this page - [[TD666]] - relating to an old persona I had a long time ago, and at the time I let it slide; but it's a pointless article and no longer holds any relevance or purpose, and I'd rather it wasn't there given it also links to some places that can be used to personally identify people who would probably rather they didn't. Would you mind seeing it deleted and/or hidden?

== Removal of page request ==

Hi there. My page is intermittently the subject of anonymous vandalism. Rather than creating more work for you guys, I think it might be easier if I just request its deletion. I hardly think I'm important enough that I need to be on WikiFur, although I am important enough to be attacked apparently.

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Marko_the_Rat

:I can start [[WikiFur:Personal exclusion|that process]] if you want, but if anonymous vandalism is the problem, wouldn't it make more sense just to protect it from that? We typically do protect pages if that's an issue, and I can see it's been done before. Apparently just not for long enough. I've put it in for six months to start with. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 18:55, 18 July 2016 (EDT)

Are you also able to lock my user page and talk page? As you can see the anonymous cowards have taken to there instead. It's kind of flattering in a way that I'm so important to someone but also sad to see them replying to their own fake questions. [[User:Marko|marko]] ([[User talk:Marko|talk]])

== Indefinite IP blocks ==

Please don't use indefinite IP blocks on IP addresses used for [[Wikipedia:Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol|DHCP pools]], as it may inadvertently block other users after the need for the block has passed. Even for servers, IP addresses may change hands, but it happens on a near-daily basis for addresses used for IPv4 addresses shared by DSL and mobile subscribers. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 11:01, 5 February 2017 (EST)

:I'll keep that in mind, but I'll admit I don't really know how to check that. --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 22:13, 6 February 2017 (EST)

::You ''can'' just search for the IP address and click links until you get to a whois result for that IP address, but if you want to be more precise, go to https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/ and select "Search resource objects in all available databases", then enter the address into the query box (not the one at the top right) and hit "Search". That should give you the full address block which that address was allocated from (as "route") and the organization responsible for it. You can usually find out fairly quickly whether it's an residential ISP or a server host by searching on the name. If it's ''clearly'' a server, it might be worth blocking the entire block for a year, because we shouldn't have edits from servers. If it's an ISP - and it's actually necessary to block, not just revert and warn - block the individual IP address for hours/days/weeks as appropriate. If that doesn't work, try moving up to the IP range block(s) [e.g. "1.2.3.4/23") they used as identified by the query results, but I'd suggest only blocking for a few days/weeks unless absolutely necessary because others using those IP addresses won't be able to edit - that can be up to 65536 addresses per block for a /16. Also, be aware that a range-block message will be shown to anyone from that range who clicks "edit", not just the person who caused the range to be banned. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 23:01, 6 February 2017 (EST)

== A "New" Furry ==

Hello sir. I am a "new"furry and am curious if the rumor is tru that furries sometimes use actual fur for their fursuits. I am realy anti-fur and would second think joining and supporting this fandom if ever. Thanks nonetheless Greenreaper.

== Updating an old article (also hello!) ==

Hey GreenReaper, long time no speak!

After some five years on hiatus from the fandom I've opted to start making my return. Whilst it's probably not smart to jump right back into adminning on WikiFur (and don't worry, I'm not), I think it would be a nice start to update [[Alexander Grey|my very own article]] with five years of changes. I'm bringing this up to you because a *lot* of stuff has changed on my end, including my legal name and gender identity. Additionally, the actual Alexander Grey has been demoted to being one of a roster of characters rather than a fursona, so I'd probably be moving the article elsewhere too given it's regarding a person and not a character. Similarly, I'd probably remove a lot of content regarding character history, evolution, etc. to refocus it on just myself as an individual.

If you've no problem with any of that, cool! Otherwise, how're you doing? {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 15:36, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

Hi, this is Grizzguy, a new editor. I must inform you that Zaxtor Znort, real name Cedric Lutes, passed away on June 25, 2019, and since it seems you protected his page indefinitely and only autoconfirmed users can edit it, I feel the need to contact you and update his Wikifur to account for this unfortunate but necessary news.

I did not receive a password reset email for my previous account or a confirmation email for this one.

I also noticed that the "Add new topic" inputs on the forums create pages beginning with "Forum:Forum:". Something between the <createbox> tags needs to be changed, but I couldn't tell you what. [[User:Walkingcat|Walkingcat]] ([[User talk:Walkingcat|talk]]) 20:45, 20 September 2019 (EDT)

they changed things like ''chief of news'' to ''lap dog'' and other vile things like this and frankly im sick of it. i was hoping you could lock my page so only me and other admins can edit it. please help me. i have a small following of fans and i believe im starting to become a target

== Please remove this page about me ==

Hello, I was made aware some years ago that a page was made about me when I was part of the fandom with my full DOB and residential information about me. At the time I asked if it could be (and tried to have it) removed it and in the end it was agreed to at least remove my full DOB (which I still don't know how whoever posted this got).

I'd like to just have the whole page removed if possible. I never wanted this and it really freaks me out to this day that someone made this page. All the related links are dead or non existent and I would rather not have this pop up every time someone googles my old usernames. (this happened recently) The page in question is the one below. Please refer to the fact that all the related accounts/references don't exist any longer.

== Would you mind removing my accounts? ==

Hi there, Foxen here...I'd like to have the article of "Foxen B. Perry" removed and not be apart of your site any longer simply because it's outdated and people are using it to harass me and it contains my birthday and old location in the United States. I've also changed and become more of a private person and gone into therapy and afraid my therapist will come across my old drawings and have been doing everything I can to remove everything until further notice. I created the Wiki when I was still pretty young and dumb and didn't realize it would attract so much attention.

Also if you could remove the accounts of "Foxen1985" and "FoxenBPerry80s" I'd love that too..I do not want anything too personal up online any longer... you have my private email address on file I think?

I do apologize if this comes off as a little rude... I'm just wanted to be more of a private person.. please and thank you and have a wonderful day :)

I was looking for website templates and found this whole section rather overwhelming. Since I created a new template (for Flickr) and found out there was already one for Weasyl, I decided to try organizing the User Page Templates a bit. However, since I'm not sure if that's supposed to be protected or not, I did a mockup in my [[User:GingerM/Sandbox|sanbox]]. If you like it, I can cut-n-paste the whole thing into the Templates/User_Page_Templates page. I may have a look at the other template sub-pages and see if they need organizing as well.

Hello. I am Charem, the one who https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Charem is written about.

This page is both severely outdated and severely unprofessional. Also, I'm currently under attack on other websites and this page and what's on it is being used as ammo against me further.

I made an edit removing most of the information and asking for page closure to immediately remove this legitimate problem, but a staff member reverted the page back to how it was before and insisted I contact a creator. So here I am.

I would appreciate my page simply being blanked/closed for the time being, until I can update it more thoroughly. I really hope this request can be responded-to quickly. Thank you.

If my identity needs to be proven, please contact me at any of my known contacts and I can verify this request.

==Proposed 'spammer' tag for informal patrollers to use==
I've noticed a fair number of spam articles of late so I've created a template to mark them as such, since I am not an admin (nor do I wish to become one! :D). My thought is that this gives other editors a way to quickly mark a spam article / spamming user for curators to take a look at if deletion and/or blocking is needed. The template is <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Spammer|Spammer]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>. I'm putting this suggestion to each of the curators; I hope this is a useful tool. If not, feel free to delete it.

: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)

== 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. [[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. [[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.

== 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)

:The issue with UKFur should now be fixed - apparently there were some unexpected hiccups when the RBW posts were moved from "conventions" to "events", which have now been corrected. [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 11:06, 3 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.

This is Cloudchaser Sakonige. I just edited "Cloudchaser Shaconage" and "Furry Dictionaries" to correct the spelling of my last name and on "Cloudchaser Shaconage" I updated the External Links.

So you deleted the article; fair enough. However, while the other article continues to exist I find that a prime example of double standards.

As for the discussion, I saw four people in favour of deletion - five if you count me - one oppose (from the page creator), and one noncommittal response.

== 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. As mentioned above, policy and article content decisions on WikiFur are made through the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus of editors]], not handed out from above as in most websites, but I would be glad to advise you on how our system works and suggest how best to achieve your goals. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:53, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== Deletion of my article and all other mentions/page/etc ==

Hi! I would like to remove any real mention of me, the article on me, etc. I am now concerned about my privacy and the amount of information available about me on the internet, and would like to get rid of it as much as possible.

==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. If the original adder really wants to make that article, they can always do that. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:28, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== 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.

==Edit and Lock==

== 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.

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”)!

== 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)
:This is not "I will be the only one editing this entry forever!" territory. I'm talking large input of material at one, most of the entries from diverse and obscure references (specially foreign). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:14, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

::I [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&limit=500&type=protect can't see evidence of use of this method] to protect personal editing projects.

:::Okay, then I will take Sine's suggestion, which is the most logical right know.

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.

== Image issues ==

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)

Nevermind, Higgs Raccoon did it.
Thanks Higgs.

2011 under April I can't see the danish article about furries
Link: http://www.dr.dk/P1/Klubvaerelset/Udsendelser/2011/04/16115910.htm
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.

==2nd request==
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 the original and owner of DiWolfe and the page of (well I didnt make it someone else did) and I would like to see if my page can be blocked from google searches, specifically and what it would take to do so. If not then I would just like the page deleted because I do not want it showing up in google searches.

Please let me know if possible and what to do to prove I am who I am if there are any doubts.

:Hi DiWolfe. I don't see a problem with deindexing it, given the current content. I've added a noindex tag.

== New page for Lobocursor Lyceus, HELP! ==

H!

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. :) 
[[User:Valery91Thunder|Valery91Thunder]] 03:11, 4 July 2013 (EDT)

== 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.

Is there anything I can do to get access to my account back?

== Request for exclusion... ==

Hi, I'd like to request personal exclusion of both Leam and Adjectivecat. Please see this for more information http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Leam

Thanks! [[User:Leam|Leam]] 03:19, 18 July 2013 (EDT)

:I've noted your request on [[Talk:Adjectivecat]].

::Hi, GR, maybe I was confusing with my last message or there is something holding up my request? But the "same template" I was hoping to apply to Leam and Adjectivecat is the personal exclusion one.

==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)

== Hi ==

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. All I'm saying is a little more effort by the administrators would go a long way to encourage others to contribute.

: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.

Hello there!

I just discovered my WikiFur page (Zaria Melody) and I noticed that one of my reference links goes to my personal Twitter page using my real name, which I kinda don't want :P

Can you please help me? :3

: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.

:If there is understanding, but not acceptance, that's another matter. Some things are up for debate, but WikiFur is never going to be a free-for-all. (Few successful sites are.) We have tens of thousands of articles, now, and some level of consistency between them is important. Achieving it without treading on too many toes is an important skill for curators to master.

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

Well, it's been awhile since it ever got any updates with the current stuff i'd been doing since 2011. [I'd done 3 gallery pieces for Conan O'Brien and TBS. And even got included in the CONAN ART HALL OF FAME.]

I am still doing fuzzy-art off-and-on! [It's been incorporated in my CONAN art.]

But you folks have helped me in the past. So I am holding out a bit of hope that you can help me out now!

I forgot my old account stuff because it's been so long since I used it here. So I had to sign up for a new account over here.

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

== User creation ==

Is there anything we can add to the user creation/registration process that wouldn't be much of an inconvenience for real persons but which would trip up spammers/bots? Something like a captcha or an e-mail validation, maybe? There have been more than a hundred new accounts registered in the last two days, enough to clutter up the recent changes quite a bit, and all but a few of them were blocked as expected or confirmed spammer accounts. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 16:40, 2 March 2015 (EST)

:We have always had a captcha (the math puzzle, which is custom for WikiFur, and usually works better than ReCAPTCHA), as well as other defenses against automated editing. However, over time, spammers tend to degrade these. I'll be looking at this once I've slept. Requiring an authenticated email address is an option, but it would prevent anonymous editors, which I'd hope to avoid if possible. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 19:50, 2 March 2015 (EST)

::Is there a way for an admin like me to see what IP addresses were used to create these accounts? If so, I could look through these for any patterns or ranges that could be dealt with using range blocks. I don't expect this would stop all of the spammer accounts, but it might allow us to take out a significant fraction of them. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 11:43, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:::You now have access to [[Special:CheckUser]] which should provide you access to this information. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:35, 4 March 2015 (EST)

::::All right, I've been running CheckUser on confirmed spammers for about three days now, and have added a few range blocks . One thing I've discovered, however, is that blocking a spammer is not automatically blocking the IP address they used, and within those few days there are some IP addresses that have been repeat offenders. If it's supposed to block the IP, it's not working. Is that something that can be looked into? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:::::Automatic blocks (used if the option to block their IP address is ticks) take action, by default, [[mw:Manual:$wgAutoblockExpiry|for a day]]. That may not be long enough. I will increase it to two weeks. Nowadays it should unblock the IP address if you unblock the person involved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::::A day might be long enough for the majority of vandals but it seems much too short for dealing with spammers. I'm using 1 year for the range blocks I've been applying; let me know if you think that's too long (or too short). IP blocks get reassigned, and I have to be especially conservative about blocking wider ranges below /24 (the absolute lowest I'll go is /16 and it might not allow me to go any lower). It's tempting to throw up a /24 block on every spammer IP but I probably won't go that far. As I told Equivamp below, we should be careful not to overblock IPs of potential legitimate users. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:44, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::When blocking spammers, could you please select 'Confirmed spammer' as the block reason? That greatly simplifies my task of figuring out which blocked users are spammers for whom I should run checkuser and potentially place an IP range block. Thanks. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 14:09, 5 August 2015 (EDT)

===IP range blocking===

I certainly hope that starts to work. Certainly something needs to be done about [[Special:BlockList|this]] and [[Special:Log/delete|this]]; if it doesn't, what are some alternatives? This is cluttering the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and, honestly, bringing the general productivity of the admins down--any time we devote to the wiki is spent blocking and deleting spam.

How does Wikipedia handle things like this? --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 20:46, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:What I'm finding so far is that spammers use a lot of different IPs. There are some discernible blocks of IP addresses that can be range blocked, but range blocks will probably only catch half of them on a good day. I have to be careful not to block an overly broad range, as that would run the risk of blocking potential legitimate users. I'm also checkusering only the confirmed spammers, not expected spammers, because with the latter I have to assume there's a slight chance they're a legitimate user (it happens; I had one contact me on FA a couple of weeks ago). To your last question, I'm not sure; maybe GR know more, or you could ask over there. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:Wikipedia has custom checks, lots of people watching for spammers, and makes heavy use of [[mw:Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] - unfortunately I am not privy to their exact filter settings - as well as the layers of protection which we already have, including most of the standard [[mw:Manual:Combating spam|spam combat techniques]]. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:36, 6 March 2015 (EST)

I think I fixed it... so if I have then ignore this

I noticed my websites Page (Fluffywaddles) was vandalized (and someone with the power to protect the page did a revision and locked the page with the vandalism still on there) The owner says "Pol Pot" instead of Spirit Silverwind, this change was made by a ip 69.55.193.129 then Spirou came did a minor edit which doesn't seem to remove the "Pol Pot", Which should be Spirit Silverwind

I don't mind the page being locked and in-fact I recommend it, but could it at least be locked with the correct information :)?

Thanks! for your time.

== Infobox Convention ==

Regarding http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_convention,

I'm curious your thoughts on changing the the convention infobox line for "final" to either be renamed "last", or an additional line for "last" be added.

"Last" would allow ongoing conventions to list a more recent date than their first date, but still allow conventions which no longer exist to list a final date.

I would also like to see a line added for "next", but I honestly don't know if that adds as much value.

--[[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Hmm! My thoughts on this:
:* The initial goal of this field was to indicate both that a convention has ended. As you say, "Final" is inappropriate for a running convention.
:* The word "Last" has a similar implication to "Final". "Latest" (or "Most recent") might be more suitable. When a convention is determined to have ended, "Latest" would be converted to "Final".
:* Infoboxes should be accurate, like the rest of the article. "Final" is easy enough because it is possible to determine when a series of conventions has ended; but it may be up to a year after. "Latest" could be updated immediately; but it also becomes inaccurate every year.
:Overall I'm in favour of your idea… bearing in mind the caveat that someone will have to update every article using it on an annual basis. (Of course, there may be other updates needed in any case, such as to a list list of convention instances.)
:I think "next" is more suitably presented in the lede; it's the first place the reader looks, and likely to be of more immediate use than when the convention ''has'' occurred. Not having this in the infobox would be a good way of avoiding duplication of that information. When the convention is over, the date currently in the lede can be moved to the new infobox field. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:42, 14 January 2016 (EST)

Hi. Just wanted to give you a heads-up that we've reached the one-year anniversary of when I started running checkuser and imposing spammer IP range blocks.

Hey,

Was wondering the the page on me could be deleted. I already made a post about this at the help desk but I figured I would reach out directly as I am really keen on getting it down. I would also be interested in having personal exclusion applied to me because, again, I am pretty big on personal Internet privacy. I don't want a stupid thing I did in middle school without a grasp of what an internet footprint was, as well as the subsequent addition of even more information by people who probably mean well, biting me in the ass.

I jumped through quite a few hoops to get back onto this original account from way back when I made the page initially. If you want me to contact you by email as well to make doubly sure let me know.

Massive thanks ahead of time,

== Indefinite IP blocks ==

Please don't use indefinite IP blocks on IP addresses used for [[Wikipedia:Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol|DHCP pools]], as it may inadvertently block other users after the need for the block has passed. Even for servers, IP addresses may change hands, but it happens on a near-daily basis for addresses used for IPv4 addresses shared by DSL and mobile subscribers. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 11:01, 5 February 2017 (EST)

::You ''can'' just search for the IP address and click links until you get to a whois result for that IP address, but if you want to be more precise, go to https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/ and select "Search resource objects in all available databases", then enter the address into the query box (not the one at the top right) and hit "Search". That should give you the full address block which that address was allocated from (as "route") and the organization responsible for it. You can usually find out fairly quickly whether it's an residential ISP or a server host by searching on the name. If it's ''clearly'' a server, it might be worth blocking the entire block for a year, because we shouldn't have edits from servers. If it's an ISP - and it's actually necessary to block, not just revert and warn - block the individual IP address for hours/days/weeks as appropriate. If that doesn't work, try moving up to the IP range block(s) [e.g. "1.2.3.4/23") they used as identified by the query results, but I'd suggest only blocking for a few days/weeks unless absolutely necessary because others using those IP addresses won't be able to edit - that can be up to 65536 addresses per block for a /16. Also, be aware that a range-block message will be shown to anyone from that range who clicks "edit", not just the person who caused the range to be banned. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 23:01, 6 February 2017 (EST)

== A "New" Furry ==

Hello sir. I am a "new"furry and am curious if the rumor is tru that furries sometimes use actual fur for their fursuits. I am realy anti-fur and would second think joining and supporting this fandom if ever. Thanks nonetheless Greenreaper.

== Updating an old article (also hello!) ==

Hey GreenReaper, long time no speak!

After some five years on hiatus from the fandom I've opted to start making my return. Whilst it's probably not smart to jump right back into adminning on WikiFur (and don't worry, I'm not), I think it would be a nice start to update [[Alexander Grey|my very own article]] with five years of changes. I'm bringing this up to you because a *lot* of stuff has changed on my end, including my legal name and gender identity. Additionally, the actual Alexander Grey has been demoted to being one of a roster of characters rather than a fursona, so I'd probably be moving the article elsewhere too given it's regarding a person and not a character. Similarly, I'd probably remove a lot of content regarding character history, evolution, etc. to refocus it on just myself as an individual.

If you've no problem with any of that, cool! Otherwise, how're you doing? {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 15:36, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

Hello, I was made aware some years ago that a page was made about me when I was part of the fandom with my full DOB and residential information about me. At the time I asked if it could be (and tried to have it) removed it and in the end it was agreed to at least remove my full DOB (which I still don't know how whoever posted this got).

I'd like to just have the whole page removed if possible. I never wanted this and it really freaks me out to this day that someone made this page.

Hi there, Foxen here...I'd like to have the article of "Foxen B.

I've also changed and become more of a private person and gone into therapy and afraid my therapist will come across my old drawings and have been doing everything I can to remove everything until further notice. I created the Wiki when I was still pretty young and dumb and didn't realize it would attract so much attention.

Also if you could remove the accounts of "Foxen1985" and "FoxenBPerry80s" I'd love that too..I do not want anything too personal up online any longer... you have my private email address on file I think?

Hi there, I made my wikifur page years ago, I'm now trying to clean up my online presence a bit and would like my page to be excluded please. https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Droc_Guidera

Heya GreenReaper,

I would like to add an email address to my WikiFur account, but the page told me to contact you because of how the website is set up. Any response would be appreciated, thanks!

== Page removal ==

Hello there,

If possible, I'd like to request the removal of my page: https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Natbob

Turns out my friend made a page for me years ago, without my knowledge or consent, and I'd really rather not have personal information shared like that... any chance it could be removed?

Many thanks,

== Re-vamp of WikiFur:Templates/User_Page_Templates ==

I was looking for website templates and found this whole section rather overwhelming. Since I created a new template (for Flickr) and found out there was already one for Weasyl, I decided to try organizing the User Page Templates a bit. However, since I'm not sure if that's supposed to be protected or not, I did a mockup in my [[User:GingerM/Sandbox|sanbox]]. If you like it, I can cut-n-paste the whole thing into the Templates/User_Page_Templates page. I may have a look at the other template sub-pages and see if they need organizing as well.

== Personal Information Removal ==

Hello,

If you could remove all info from https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Valmir_Aker I would really appreciate it. I have left the fandom for my own personal reasons and need all information including past rl info deleted. Thank You.

== I am under attack online and need my wikifur page removed promptly. It's being used as ammo against me. ==

Hello. I am Charem, the one who https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Charem is written about.

This page is both severely outdated and severely unprofessional. Also, I'm currently under attack on other websites and this page and what's on it is being used as ammo against me further.

I made an edit removing most of the information and asking for page closure to immediately remove this legitimate problem, but a staff member reverted the page back to how it was before and insisted I contact a creator. So here I am.

I would appreciate my page simply being blanked/closed for the time being, until I can update it more thoroughly. I really hope this request can be responded-to quickly. Thank you.

If my identity needs to be proven, please contact me at any of my known contacts and I can verify this request.
== Page Deletion Request, Connor J. Coyote ==
Hello.... (just putting a reminder note on your talk page, if helpful) - but, please note - I recently placed a request on the help page, (located here): https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Forum:Forum:Page_Deletion_Request&t=20210613043521

And thus, when someone gets some time - I'd like to request the removal, (and deletion) of my Fursona page, (located here, please): https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Connor_J._Coyote - (and all of its history, removed as well); as - I will no longer be using this name anymore, (going forward); and thus - the information within this page (I created) is no longer accurate, and relevant now.

==Proposed 'spammer' tag for informal patrollers to use==
I've noticed a fair number of spam articles of late so I've created a template to mark them as such, since I am not an admin (nor do I wish to become one! :D). My thought is that this gives other editors a way to quickly mark a spam article / spamming user for curators to take a look at if deletion and/or blocking is needed. The template is <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Spammer|Spammer]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>. I'm putting this suggestion to each of the curators; I hope this is a useful tool. If not, feel free to delete it.

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? [[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)

== 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. [[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. [[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)

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. I have just turned off the advanced editing functions, and it still did it. [[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] 13:03, 28 June 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

:The issue with UKFur should now be fixed - apparently there were some unexpected hiccups when the RBW posts were moved from "conventions" to "events", which have now been corrected. [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 11:06, 3 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. As mentioned above, policy and article content decisions on WikiFur are made through the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus of editors]], not handed out from above as in most websites, but I would be glad to advise you on how our system works and suggest how best to achieve your goals. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:53, 14 September 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== Deletion of my article and all other mentions/page/etc ==

Hi! I would like to remove any real mention of me, the article on me, etc. I am now concerned about my privacy and the amount of information available about me on the internet, and would like to get rid of it as much as possible. You can contact me via the email listed in my preferences (I assume this is viewable by you?)

Thank you in advance :)

==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. If the original adder really wants to make that article, they can always do that. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:28, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== A strange link ==

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!

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.

: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.

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).

== 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)
:This is not "I will be the only one editing this entry forever!" territory. I'm talking large input of material at one, most of the entries from diverse and obscure references (specially foreign). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:14, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

::I [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&limit=500&type=protect can't see evidence of use of this method] to protect personal editing projects. It is primarily used when there is a dispute over articles. If you have a large edit which you cannot complete within a matter of hours, it would be best to prepare it in your user space. I will expand on this in the ongoing discussion. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 21:16, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

:::Okay, then I will take Sine's suggestion, which is the most logical right know. I will remove (temporarily) the links that are currently not finished (not relinked, but just the ones with name and no description), move them to four folders for the four species/disambiguations on my Wikifur folder, and edit them offline, to be included back at a later time, so I can remove the edit tag, and open them to user traffic as of right now - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:25, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

== spam guy ==

i'm adding some new articles to the italian wiki,but another guy is putting spam around the pages( even the main one),so please block him,my account is "Escofal"(i can't log in to the eng wiki,only to the italian version of the site).That bad guy has an ip like "173.--"

:''Spammer blocked.'' --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:42, 7 November 2012 (EST)

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. Please use your new powers with restraint. :-) --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 16:46, 22 November 2012 (EST)

Thanks!

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).

:Yes; these issues appear to affect up to 2/13 of images on WikiFur (and Flayrah/the Yerf Archive).

== 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.

Please let me know if possible and what to do to prove I am who I am if there are any doubts.

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?

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.

==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)

Seems Spirou has gotten involved in an editing dispute where he later used protection and false citations (IE: providing a citation for a fact when the citation is openly stated to be the mere speculation of an individual).

: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.

I tested Wikimedia's own lightbox/media viewer, but per the [http://wikifur.livejournal.com/96171.html update notice] we're not using it - we don't have their needs, nor their templates (which it relies on for details), and many users dislike it. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:03, 3 August 2014 (EDT)

Thanks, I appreciate it. As for the declining editing activity, you where I stand on that. I think if we relaxed the rules and were less like Wikipedia it might help.

: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.

:If there is understanding, but not acceptance, that's another matter. Some things are up for debate, but WikiFur is never going to be a free-for-all. (Few successful sites are.) We have tens of thousands of articles, now, and some level of consistency between them is important. Achieving it without treading on too many toes is an important skill for curators to master.

:The decline in contributions appears to be general. People spend more time on social media and less time contributing to group projects. Some sites (such as Wikia) have responded by making editing into more of a game, but I'd prefer to avoid this, as it encourages an "edits over quality" mindset. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 01:20, 4 August 2014 (EDT)

== I need some updated to my WikiFur entry! ==

Well, it's been awhile since it ever got any updates with the current stuff i'd been doing since 2011. [I'd done 3 gallery pieces for Conan O'Brien and TBS. And even got included in the CONAN ART HALL OF FAME.]

I am still doing fuzzy-art off-and-on! [It's been incorporated in my CONAN art.]

But you folks have helped me in the past. So I am holding out a bit of hope that you can help me out now!

I forgot my old account stuff because it's been so long since I used it here. So I had to sign up for a new account over here.

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

So yeah, I wanted to get an update on my stuff...even after Radio Comix and all of that! :D

Thank you so much for helping me.

Some guy just deleted a people page I put time and effort into writing without any sort of warning or consensus. It was an endearing, factual article about a friend of mine which was intelligent and well-written, and in my opinion up to WikiFur standards. I don't understand why anything which may have posed as a problem wasn't simply removed instead of the entire page being rudely deleted.

Could you please have a look at the deleted page and point out any issues to me so that the article may exist and my effort won't go to waste? [[User:Brian vermin|Brian vermin]] ([[User talk:Brian vermin|talk]]) 23:54, 13 October 2014 (EDT)

== User creation ==

Is there anything we can add to the user creation/registration process that wouldn't be much of an inconvenience for real persons but which would trip up spammers/bots? Something like a captcha or an e-mail validation, maybe? There have been more than a hundred new accounts registered in the last two days, enough to clutter up the recent changes quite a bit, and all but a few of them were blocked as expected or confirmed spammer accounts. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 16:40, 2 March 2015 (EST)

:We have always had a captcha (the math puzzle, which is custom for WikiFur, and usually works better than ReCAPTCHA), as well as other defenses against automated editing. However, over time, spammers tend to degrade these. I'll be looking at this once I've slept. Requiring an authenticated email address is an option, but it would prevent anonymous editors, which I'd hope to avoid if possible. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 19:50, 2 March 2015 (EST)

::Is there a way for an admin like me to see what IP addresses were used to create these accounts? If so, I could look through these for any patterns or ranges that could be dealt with using range blocks. I don't expect this would stop all of the spammer accounts, but it might allow us to take out a significant fraction of them. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 11:43, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:::You now have access to [[Special:CheckUser]] which should provide you access to this information. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:35, 4 March 2015 (EST)

::::All right, I've been running CheckUser on confirmed spammers for about three days now, and have added a few range blocks . One thing I've discovered, however, is that blocking a spammer is not automatically blocking the IP address they used, and within those few days there are some IP addresses that have been repeat offenders. If it's supposed to block the IP, it's not working. Is that something that can be looked into? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:::::Automatic blocks (used if the option to block their IP address is ticks) take action, by default, [[mw:Manual:$wgAutoblockExpiry|for a day]]. That may not be long enough. I will increase it to two weeks. Nowadays it should unblock the IP address if you unblock the person involved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::::A day might be long enough for the majority of vandals but it seems much too short for dealing with spammers. I'm using 1 year for the range blocks I've been applying; let me know if you think that's too long (or too short). IP blocks get reassigned, and I have to be especially conservative about blocking wider ranges below /24 (the absolute lowest I'll go is /16 and it might not allow me to go any lower). It's tempting to throw up a /24 block on every spammer IP but I probably won't go that far. As I told Equivamp below, we should be careful not to overblock IPs of potential legitimate users. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:44, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::When blocking spammers, could you please select 'Confirmed spammer' as the block reason? That greatly simplifies my task of figuring out which blocked users are spammers for whom I should run checkuser and potentially place an IP range block. Thanks. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 14:09, 5 August 2015 (EDT)

===IP range blocking===

I certainly hope that starts to work. Certainly something needs to be done about [[Special:BlockList|this]] and [[Special:Log/delete|this]]; if it doesn't, what are some alternatives? This is cluttering the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and, honestly, bringing the general productivity of the admins down--any time we devote to the wiki is spent blocking and deleting spam.

How does Wikipedia handle things like this? --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 20:46, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:What I'm finding so far is that spammers use a lot of different IPs. There are some discernible blocks of IP addresses that can be range blocked, but range blocks will probably only catch half of them on a good day. I have to be careful not to block an overly broad range, as that would run the risk of blocking potential legitimate users. I'm also checkusering only the confirmed spammers, not expected spammers, because with the latter I have to assume there's a slight chance they're a legitimate user (it happens; I had one contact me on FA a couple of weeks ago). To your last question, I'm not sure; maybe GR know more, or you could ask over there. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

I noticed my websites Page (Fluffywaddles) was vandalized (and someone with the power to protect the page did a revision and locked the page with the vandalism still on there) The owner says "Pol Pot" instead of Spirit Silverwind, this change was made by a ip 69.55.193.129 then Spirou came did a minor edit which doesn't seem to remove the "Pol Pot", Which should be Spirit Silverwind

I don't mind the page being locked and in-fact I recommend it, but could it at least be locked with the correct information :)?

== Infobox Convention ==

Regarding http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_convention,

I'm curious your thoughts on changing the the convention infobox line for "final" to either be renamed "last", or an additional line for "last" be added.

"Last" would allow ongoing conventions to list a more recent date than their first date, but still allow conventions which no longer exist to list a final date.

I would also like to see a line added for "next", but I honestly don't know if that adds as much value.

--[[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Hmm! My thoughts on this:
:* The initial goal of this field was to indicate both that a convention has ended. As you say, "Final" is inappropriate for a running convention.
:* The word "Last" has a similar implication to "Final". "Latest" (or "Most recent") might be more suitable. When a convention is determined to have ended, "Latest" would be converted to "Final".
:* Infoboxes should be accurate, like the rest of the article. "Final" is easy enough because it is possible to determine when a series of conventions has ended; but it may be up to a year after. "Latest" could be updated immediately; but it also becomes inaccurate every year.
:Overall I'm in favour of your idea… bearing in mind the caveat that someone will have to update every article using it on an annual basis. (Of course, there may be other updates needed in any case, such as to a list list of convention instances.)
:I think "next" is more suitably presented in the lede; it's the first place the reader looks, and likely to be of more immediate use than when the convention ''has'' occurred. Not having this in the infobox would be a good way of avoiding duplication of that information. When the convention is over, the date currently in the lede can be moved to the new infobox field. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:42, 14 January 2016 (EST)

Hi. Just wanted to give you a heads-up that we've reached the one-year anniversary of when I started running checkuser and imposing spammer IP range blocks.

== Requesting Page Deletion and Exclusion ==

Hey,

Was wondering the the page on me could be deleted. I already made a post about this at the help desk but I figured I would reach out directly as I am really keen on getting it down. I would also be interested in having personal exclusion applied to me because, again, I am pretty big on personal Internet privacy. I don't want a stupid thing I did in middle school without a grasp of what an internet footprint was, as well as the subsequent addition of even more information by people who probably mean well, biting me in the ass.

I jumped through quite a few hoops to get back onto this original account from way back when I made the page initially. If you want me to contact you by email as well to make doubly sure let me know.

Massive thanks ahead of time,
Glitch

== Requesting a page delete/exclusion ==

A group of old friends made this page - [[TD666]] - relating to an old persona I had a long time ago, and at the time I let it slide; but it's a pointless article and no longer holds any relevance or purpose, and I'd rather it wasn't there given it also links to some places that can be used to personally identify people who would probably rather they didn't.

== Removal of page request ==

Hi there. My page is intermittently the subject of anonymous vandalism. Rather than creating more work for you guys, I think it might be easier if I just request its deletion. I hardly think I'm important enough that I need to be on WikiFur, although I am important enough to be attacked apparently.

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Marko_the_Rat

:I can start [[WikiFur:Personal exclusion|that process]] if you want, but if anonymous vandalism is the problem, wouldn't it make more sense just to protect it from that? We typically do protect pages if that's an issue, and I can see it's been done before. Apparently just not for long enough. I've put it in for six months to start with. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 18:55, 18 July 2016 (EDT)

== Indefinite IP blocks ==

Please don't use indefinite IP blocks on IP addresses used for [[Wikipedia:Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol|DHCP pools]], as it may inadvertently block other users after the need for the block has passed. Even for servers, IP addresses may change hands, but it happens on a near-daily basis for addresses used for IPv4 addresses shared by DSL and mobile subscribers. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 11:01, 5 February 2017 (EST)

::You ''can'' just search for the IP address and click links until you get to a whois result for that IP address, but if you want to be more precise, go to https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/ and select "Search resource objects in all available databases", then enter the address into the query box (not the one at the top right) and hit "Search". That should give you the full address block which that address was allocated from (as "route") and the organization responsible for it. You can usually find out fairly quickly whether it's an residential ISP or a server host by searching on the name. If it's ''clearly'' a server, it might be worth blocking the entire block for a year, because we shouldn't have edits from servers. If it's an ISP - and it's actually necessary to block, not just revert and warn - block the individual IP address for hours/days/weeks as appropriate. If that doesn't work, try moving up to the IP range block(s) [e.g. "1.2.3.4/23") they used as identified by the query results, but I'd suggest only blocking for a few days/weeks unless absolutely necessary because others using those IP addresses won't be able to edit - that can be up to 65536 addresses per block for a /16. Also, be aware that a range-block message will be shown to anyone from that range who clicks "edit", not just the person who caused the range to be banned. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 23:01, 6 February 2017 (EST)

== A "New" Furry ==

Hello sir. I am a "new"furry and am curious if the rumor is tru that furries sometimes use actual fur for their fursuits. I am realy anti-fur and would second think joining and supporting this fandom if ever. Thanks nonetheless Greenreaper.

== Updating an old article (also hello!) ==

Hey GreenReaper, long time no speak!

After some five years on hiatus from the fandom I've opted to start making my return. Whilst it's probably not smart to jump right back into adminning on WikiFur (and don't worry, I'm not), I think it would be a nice start to update [[Alexander Grey|my very own article]] with five years of changes. I'm bringing this up to you because a *lot* of stuff has changed on my end, including my legal name and gender identity. Additionally, the actual Alexander Grey has been demoted to being one of a roster of characters rather than a fursona, so I'd probably be moving the article elsewhere too given it's regarding a person and not a character. Similarly, I'd probably remove a lot of content regarding character history, evolution, etc. to refocus it on just myself as an individual.

If you've no problem with any of that, cool! Otherwise, how're you doing? {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 15:36, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

they changed things like ''chief of news'' to ''lap dog'' and other vile things like this and frankly im sick of it. i was hoping you could lock my page so only me and other admins can edit it. please help me. i have a small following of fans and i believe im starting to become a target

== Please remove this page about me ==

Hello, I was made aware some years ago that a page was made about me when I was part of the fandom with my full DOB and residential information about me. At the time I asked if it could be (and tried to have it) removed it and in the end it was agreed to at least remove my full DOB (which I still don't know how whoever posted this got).

I'd like to just have the whole page removed if possible. I never wanted this and it really freaks me out to this day that someone made this page. All the related links are dead or non existent and I would rather not have this pop up every time someone googles my old usernames. (this happened recently) The page in question is the one below. Please refer to the fact that all the related accounts/references don't exist any longer.

== Would you mind removing my accounts? ==

Hi there, Foxen here...I'd like to have the article of "Foxen B. Perry" removed and not be apart of your site any longer simply because it's outdated and people are using it to harass me and it contains my birthday and old location in the United States. I've also changed and become more of a private person and gone into therapy and afraid my therapist will come across my old drawings and have been doing everything I can to remove everything until further notice. I created the Wiki when I was still pretty young and dumb and didn't realize it would attract so much attention.

Also if you could remove the accounts of "Foxen1985" and "FoxenBPerry80s" I'd love that too..I do not want anything too personal up online any longer... you have my private email address on file I think?

I do apologize if this comes off as a little rude... I'm just wanted to be more of a private person.. please and thank you and have a wonderful day :)

I was looking for website templates and found this whole section rather overwhelming. Since I created a new template (for Flickr) and found out there was already one for Weasyl, I decided to try organizing the User Page Templates a bit. However, since I'm not sure if that's supposed to be protected or not, I did a mockup in my [[User:GingerM/Sandbox|sanbox]]. If you like it, I can cut-n-paste the whole thing into the Templates/User_Page_Templates page. I may have a look at the other template sub-pages and see if they need organizing as well.

Hello. I am Charem, the one who https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Charem is written about.

This page is both severely outdated and severely unprofessional. Also, I'm currently under attack on other websites and this page and what's on it is being used as ammo against me further.

I made an edit removing most of the information and asking for page closure to immediately remove this legitimate problem, but a staff member reverted the page back to how it was before and insisted I contact a creator. So here I am.

I would appreciate my page simply being blanked/closed for the time being, until I can update it more thoroughly. I really hope this request can be responded-to quickly. Thank you.

If my identity needs to be proven, please contact me at any of my known contacts and I can verify this request.

==Proposed 'spammer' tag for informal patrollers to use==
I've noticed a fair number of spam articles of late so I've created a template to mark them as such, since I am not an admin (nor do I wish to become one! :D). My thought is that this gives other editors a way to quickly mark a spam article / spamming user for curators to take a look at if deletion and/or blocking is needed. The template is <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Spammer|Spammer]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>. I'm putting this suggestion to each of the curators; I hope this is a useful tool. If not, feel free to delete it.

: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. [[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. [[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. [[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.

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)

:The issue with UKFur should now be fixed - apparently there were some unexpected hiccups when the RBW posts were moved from "conventions" to "events", which have now been corrected. [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 11:06, 3 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. If the original adder really wants to make that article, they can always do that. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 17:28, 27 October 2011 (EDT)

== 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)

== 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.

==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.

== 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”)!

== 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)
:This is not "I will be the only one editing this entry forever!" territory. I'm talking large input of material at one, most of the entries from diverse and obscure references (specially foreign). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] 21:14, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

::I [http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&limit=500&type=protect can't see evidence of use of this method] to protect personal editing projects.

:::Okay, then I will take Sine's suggestion, which is the most logical right know.

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.

== Image issues ==

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.

==2nd request==
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.

Is there anything I can do to get access to my account back?

::Hi, GR, maybe I was confusing with my last message or there is something holding up my request? But the "same template" I was hoping to apply to Leam and Adjectivecat is the personal exclusion one.

==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)

== Hi ==

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. All I'm saying is a little more effort by the administrators would go a long way to encourage others to contribute.

: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.

Hello there!

I just discovered my WikiFur page (Zaria Melody) and I noticed that one of my reference links goes to my personal Twitter page using my real name, which I kinda don't want :P

So I was able to change my direct link to my twitter account that I use for my fursona, but I don't know how to get the reference changed so it stops going to my personal account.

Can you please help me? :3

: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.

:If there is understanding, but not acceptance, that's another matter. Some things are up for debate, but WikiFur is never going to be a free-for-all. (Few successful sites are.) We have tens of thousands of articles, now, and some level of consistency between them is important. Achieving it without treading on too many toes is an important skill for curators to master.

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

Well, it's been awhile since it ever got any updates with the current stuff i'd been doing since 2011. [I'd done 3 gallery pieces for Conan O'Brien and TBS. And even got included in the CONAN ART HALL OF FAME.]

I am still doing fuzzy-art off-and-on! [It's been incorporated in my CONAN art.]

But you folks have helped me in the past. So I am holding out a bit of hope that you can help me out now!

I forgot my old account stuff because it's been so long since I used it here. So I had to sign up for a new account over here.

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

So yeah, I wanted to get an update on my stuff...even after Radio Comix and all of that! :D

== User creation ==

Is there anything we can add to the user creation/registration process that wouldn't be much of an inconvenience for real persons but which would trip up spammers/bots? Something like a captcha or an e-mail validation, maybe? There have been more than a hundred new accounts registered in the last two days, enough to clutter up the recent changes quite a bit, and all but a few of them were blocked as expected or confirmed spammer accounts. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 16:40, 2 March 2015 (EST)

:We have always had a captcha (the math puzzle, which is custom for WikiFur, and usually works better than ReCAPTCHA), as well as other defenses against automated editing. However, over time, spammers tend to degrade these. I'll be looking at this once I've slept. Requiring an authenticated email address is an option, but it would prevent anonymous editors, which I'd hope to avoid if possible. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 19:50, 2 March 2015 (EST)

::Is there a way for an admin like me to see what IP addresses were used to create these accounts? If so, I could look through these for any patterns or ranges that could be dealt with using range blocks. I don't expect this would stop all of the spammer accounts, but it might allow us to take out a significant fraction of them. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 11:43, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:::You now have access to [[Special:CheckUser]] which should provide you access to this information. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:35, 4 March 2015 (EST)

::::All right, I've been running CheckUser on confirmed spammers for about three days now, and have added a few range blocks . One thing I've discovered, however, is that blocking a spammer is not automatically blocking the IP address they used, and within those few days there are some IP addresses that have been repeat offenders. If it's supposed to block the IP, it's not working. Is that something that can be looked into? --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:::::Automatic blocks (used if the option to block their IP address is ticks) take action, by default, [[mw:Manual:$wgAutoblockExpiry|for a day]]. That may not be long enough. I will increase it to two weeks. Nowadays it should unblock the IP address if you unblock the person involved. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::::A day might be long enough for the majority of vandals but it seems much too short for dealing with spammers. I'm using 1 year for the range blocks I've been applying; let me know if you think that's too long (or too short). IP blocks get reassigned, and I have to be especially conservative about blocking wider ranges below /24 (the absolute lowest I'll go is /16 and it might not allow me to go any lower). It's tempting to throw up a /24 block on every spammer IP but I probably won't go that far. As I told Equivamp below, we should be careful not to overblock IPs of potential legitimate users. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:44, 6 March 2015 (EST)

::::When blocking spammers, could you please select 'Confirmed spammer' as the block reason? That greatly simplifies my task of figuring out which blocked users are spammers for whom I should run checkuser and potentially place an IP range block. Thanks. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 14:09, 5 August 2015 (EDT)

===IP range blocking===

I certainly hope that starts to work. Certainly something needs to be done about [[Special:BlockList|this]] and [[Special:Log/delete|this]]; if it doesn't, what are some alternatives? This is cluttering the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and, honestly, bringing the general productivity of the admins down--any time we devote to the wiki is spent blocking and deleting spam.

How does Wikipedia handle things like this? --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 20:46, 4 March 2015 (EST)

:What I'm finding so far is that spammers use a lot of different IPs. There are some discernible blocks of IP addresses that can be range blocked, but range blocks will probably only catch half of them on a good day. I have to be careful not to block an overly broad range, as that would run the risk of blocking potential legitimate users. I'm also checkusering only the confirmed spammers, not expected spammers, because with the latter I have to assume there's a slight chance they're a legitimate user (it happens; I had one contact me on FA a couple of weeks ago). To your last question, I'm not sure; maybe GR know more, or you could ask over there. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] ([[User talk:Mwalimu|talk]]) 13:11, 6 March 2015 (EST)

:Wikipedia has custom checks, lots of people watching for spammers, and makes heavy use of [[mw:Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] - unfortunately I am not privy to their exact filter settings - as well as the layers of protection which we already have, including most of the standard [[mw:Manual:Combating spam|spam combat techniques]]. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:36, 6 March 2015 (EST)

I think I fixed it... so if I have then ignore this

I noticed my websites Page (Fluffywaddles) was vandalized (and someone with the power to protect the page did a revision and locked the page with the vandalism still on there) The owner says "Pol Pot" instead of Spirit Silverwind, this change was made by a ip 69.55.193.129 then Spirou came did a minor edit which doesn't seem to remove the "Pol Pot", Which should be Spirit Silverwind

I don't mind the page being locked and in-fact I recommend it, but could it at least be locked with the correct information :)?

Thanks! for your time.

== Infobox Convention ==

Regarding http://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_convention,

I'm curious your thoughts on changing the the convention infobox line for "final" to either be renamed "last", or an additional line for "last" be added.

"Last" would allow ongoing conventions to list a more recent date than their first date, but still allow conventions which no longer exist to list a final date.

I would also like to see a line added for "next", but I honestly don't know if that adds as much value.

--[[User:Woody|Woody]] ([[User talk:Woody|talk]]) 12:39, 14 January 2016 (EST)

:Hmm! My thoughts on this:
:* The initial goal of this field was to indicate both that a convention has ended. As you say, "Final" is inappropriate for a running convention.
:* The word "Last" has a similar implication to "Final". "Latest" (or "Most recent") might be more suitable. When a convention is determined to have ended, "Latest" would be converted to "Final".
:* Infoboxes should be accurate, like the rest of the article. "Final" is easy enough because it is possible to determine when a series of conventions has ended; but it may be up to a year after. "Latest" could be updated immediately; but it also becomes inaccurate every year.
:Overall I'm in favour of your idea… bearing in mind the caveat that someone will have to update every article using it on an annual basis. (Of course, there may be other updates needed in any case, such as to a list list of convention instances.)
:I think "next" is more suitably presented in the lede; it's the first place the reader looks, and likely to be of more immediate use than when the convention ''has'' occurred. Not having this in the infobox would be a good way of avoiding duplication of that information. When the convention is over, the date currently in the lede can be moved to the new infobox field. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 13:42, 14 January 2016 (EST)

Hey,

Was wondering the the page on me could be deleted. I already made a post about this at the help desk but I figured I would reach out directly as I am really keen on getting it down. I would also be interested in having personal exclusion applied to me because, again, I am pretty big on personal Internet privacy. I don't want a stupid thing I did in middle school without a grasp of what an internet footprint was, as well as the subsequent addition of even more information by people who probably mean well, biting me in the ass.

I jumped through quite a few hoops to get back onto this original account from way back when I made the page initially. If you want me to contact you by email as well to make doubly sure let me know.

Massive thanks ahead of time,

== Indefinite IP blocks ==

Please don't use indefinite IP blocks on IP addresses used for [[Wikipedia:Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol|DHCP pools]], as it may inadvertently block other users after the need for the block has passed. Even for servers, IP addresses may change hands, but it happens on a near-daily basis for addresses used for IPv4 addresses shared by DSL and mobile subscribers. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 11:01, 5 February 2017 (EST)

:I'll keep that in mind, but I'll admit I don't really know how to check that. --[[User:Equivamp|Equivamp]] - [[User talk:Equivamp|talk]] 22:13, 6 February 2017 (EST)

::You ''can'' just search for the IP address and click links until you get to a whois result for that IP address, but if you want to be more precise, go to https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/ and select "Search resource objects in all available databases", then enter the address into the query box (not the one at the top right) and hit "Search". That should give you the full address block which that address was allocated from (as "route") and the organization responsible for it. You can usually find out fairly quickly whether it's an residential ISP or a server host by searching on the name. If it's ''clearly'' a server, it might be worth blocking the entire block for a year, because we shouldn't have edits from servers. If it's an ISP - and it's actually necessary to block, not just revert and warn - block the individual IP address for hours/days/weeks as appropriate. If that doesn't work, try moving up to the IP range block(s) [e.g. "1.2.3.4/23") they used as identified by the query results, but I'd suggest only blocking for a few days/weeks unless absolutely necessary because others using those IP addresses won't be able to edit - that can be up to 65536 addresses per block for a /16. Also, be aware that a range-block message will be shown to anyone from that range who clicks "edit", not just the person who caused the range to be banned. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]]) 23:01, 6 February 2017 (EST)

== A "New" Furry ==

Hello sir. I am a "new"furry and am curious if the rumor is tru that furries sometimes use actual fur for their fursuits. I am realy anti-fur and would second think joining and supporting this fandom if ever. Thanks nonetheless Greenreaper.

== Updating an old article (also hello!) ==

Hey GreenReaper, long time no speak!

After some five years on hiatus from the fandom I've opted to start making my return. Whilst it's probably not smart to jump right back into adminning on WikiFur (and don't worry, I'm not), I think it would be a nice start to update [[Alexander Grey|my very own article]] with five years of changes. I'm bringing this up to you because a *lot* of stuff has changed on my end, including my legal name and gender identity. Additionally, the actual Alexander Grey has been demoted to being one of a roster of characters rather than a fursona, so I'd probably be moving the article elsewhere too given it's regarding a person and not a character. Similarly, I'd probably remove a lot of content regarding character history, evolution, etc. to refocus it on just myself as an individual.

If you've no problem with any of that, cool! Otherwise, how're you doing? {{:User:AlexanderGrey/sig}} 15:36, 10 May 2017 (EDT)

Hey there, I’d like to request rollback privileges if I could. A lot of my work here stems from RC Patrol, and there’s been a couple cases of multi edit vandalism that I’ve fixed using the normal undo and copying an old revision.

Please exclude the following page entry about me from WikiFur: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Darmon_C._Thornton

I left furry fandom in 2002 and I've had no involvement since. I don't hate furries, and no longer have any interests in the fandom itself. Please reply to me via email at [Darmon DOT Thornton AT Gmail DOT com] should you need to contact me for verification.

== Please remove this page about me ==

Hello, I was made aware some years ago that a page was made about me when I was part of the fandom with my full DOB and residential information about me. At the time I asked if it could be (and tried to have it) removed it and in the end it was agreed to at least remove my full DOB (which I still don't know how whoever posted this got).

I'd like to just have the whole page removed if possible. I never wanted this and it really freaks me out to this day that someone made this page. All the related links are dead or non existent and I would rather not have this pop up every time someone googles my old usernames. (this happened recently) The page in question is the one below.

Hi there, Foxen here...I'd like to have the article of "Foxen B. Perry" removed and not be apart of your site any longer simply because it's outdated and people are using it to harass me and it contains my birthday and old location in the United States. I've also changed and become more of a private person and gone into therapy and afraid my therapist will come across my old drawings and have been doing everything I can to remove everything until further notice. I created the Wiki when I was still pretty young and dumb and didn't realize it would attract so much attention.

Also if you could remove the accounts of "Foxen1985" and "FoxenBPerry80s" I'd love that too..I do not want anything too personal up online any longer... you have my private email address on file I think?

== Removal Zypher and Zypher.png ==

Hello there. I changed my fursona name to Zyphron and would like to get Zypher removed.
Is it possible to rename Zypher.png to Zypron.png? Thanks.

== Page exclusion request ==

Hi there, I made my wikifur page years ago, I'm now trying to clean up my online presence a bit and would like my page to be excluded please. https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Droc_Guidera

== Set an email adress ==

Heya GreenReaper,

I would like to add an email address to my WikiFur account, but the page told me to contact you because of how the website is set up. Any response would be appreciated, thanks!

== Page removal ==

Hello there,

If possible, I'd like to request the removal of my page: https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Natbob

Turns out my friend made a page for me years ago, without my knowledge or consent, and I'd really rather not have personal information shared like that... any chance it could be removed?

Many thanks,

== Re-vamp of WikiFur:Templates/User_Page_Templates ==

I was looking for website templates and found this whole section rather overwhelming. Since I created a new template (for Flickr) and found out there was already one for Weasyl, I decided to try organizing the User Page Templates a bit. However, since I'm not sure if that's supposed to be protected or not, I did a mockup in my [[User:GingerM/Sandbox|sanbox]]. If you like it, I can cut-n-paste the whole thing into the Templates/User_Page_Templates page. I may have a look at the other template sub-pages and see if they need organizing as well.

== Personal Information Removal ==

Hello,

If you could remove all info from https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Valmir_Aker I would really appreciate it. I have left the fandom for my own personal reasons and need all information including past rl info deleted. Thank You.

== I am under attack online and need my wikifur page removed promptly. It's being used as ammo against me. ==

Hello. I am Charem, the one who https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Charem is written about.

This page is both severely outdated and severely unprofessional. Also, I'm currently under attack on other websites and this page and what's on it is being used as ammo against me further.

I made an edit removing most of the information and asking for page closure to immediately remove this legitimate problem, but a staff member reverted the page back to how it was before and insisted I contact a creator. So here I am.

I would appreciate my page simply being blanked/closed for the time being, until I can update it more thoroughly. I really hope this request can be responded-to quickly. Thank you.

If my identity needs to be proven, please contact me at any of my known contacts and I can verify this request.
== Page Deletion Request, Connor J. Coyote ==
Hello.... (just putting a reminder note on your talk page, if helpful) - but, please note - I recently placed a request on the help page, (located here): https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Forum:Forum:Page_Deletion_Request&t=20210613043521

And thus, when someone gets some time - I'd like to request the removal, (and deletion) of my Fursona page, (located here, please): https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Connor_J._Coyote - (and all of its history, removed as well); as - I will no longer be using this name anymore, (going forward); and thus - the information within this page (I created) is no longer accurate, and relevant now.

(The wikifur account associated with the page, can also be closed as well, please).

Thanks for your time. [[User:Connor.J.Coyote]] [[User:Connor.J.Coyote|Connor.J.Coyote]] ([[User talk:Connor.J.Coyote|talk]]) 03:30, 14 June 2021 (EDT)

==Proposed 'spammer' tag for informal patrollers to use==
I've noticed a fair number of spam articles of late so I've created a template to mark them as such, since I am not an admin (nor do I wish to become one! :D). My thought is that this gives other editors a way to quickly mark a spam article / spamming user for curators to take a look at if deletion and/or blocking is needed. The template is <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Spammer|Spammer]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki>. I'm putting this suggestion to each of the curators; I hope this is a useful tool. If not, feel free to delete it.

Dokatamaru: 2006 death

{{copyedit}}
'''WereNet''' was the long standing Therian/Furry Internet institution owned and operated by [[SabreLion]] and the former [[TiggyBot]]. It was founded in late 1999, and was once administered by [[Jakkal]]. Among the services it used to host were the parody site The Anti Furry/Were Resource, and a very popular IRC network.

In November of 2006, SabreLion allowed WereNet's domain to expire.

In October of 2013, SabreLion set up a replacement IRC server - irc.tigerlake.net intended for more mature (age-wise) furs. TigerLake is the logical successor to WereNet.

'''Furnation.ru''' ('''Фурнейшен.ру‎''', or '''FN''' for short), was the biggest online gallery in Russian [[furry]] [[fandom]]. It was created by [[Bert (administrator)|Bert]] in 2006 specifically for Russian-speaking users. It accepted furry-themed [[art]], [[music]], fiction and poetry. The Furnation.ru is built on principles of Web 2.0, such as [[:wikipedia:Ajax (programming)|AJAX]] and social networking. Users could collect favorites, vote and comment, track blogs and new artwork and so on. There's was a [[PDA]] version optimized for [[mobile devices]].

Users are sorted by quality of their works. Ranking is managed by moderators. There are separate ladders for each type of work:

* The starting rank is "Amateur". Their works didn't appear in the main feed. Amateurs were limited by 3 uploads per day and picture size up to 1024*1024.
* Second rank is "Regular". Regulars' works appeared in the main feed, and their rank's limitation was 6 uploads per day and picture size up to 1600*1600.
* The final rank is "Master". They had no limitations and were even allowed to upload non-furry art.

Furnation had their own [[Jabber]] server called '''FurTalk'''. It uses the same accounts as the website. The contact list of each account had all friends from the website.

Furnation.ru was constantly updated with new features.

== History ==

The main idea of Furnation was a Russian analogue of [[Fur Affinity]]. The idea came to Stormwind one winter morning, on January 11, 2006, around the time when [[y!Gallery]] forbid the publication of furry art. The first design concept of Furnation was a y!Gallery-like functionality.

"Furnation.ru" domain name was registered on 29 March 2006, and work on custom engine had begun. Some days later Bert posted an announcement at the Fur Affinity journal<ref>https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/38505/</ref>. He also hosted the mint new website on its Grand Opening on 26 August 2006. First registrations soon followed.

On 19 Jan 2009, Furnation.ru introduced the user ranking system.

On 24 Jan 2009, website's team launched FurTalk Jabber server.

=== Closure ===

The site went offline in 2021 after being unable to fund either the repairs for the hosting hardware and the hosting fees.<ref>[https://www.furnation.ru ''Проект Furnation.ru - временно приостановлен.''] notice on '''FurNation.ru''''s main homepage. Retreived November 6, 2021.</ref>

== Registration ==

To register, the user had to enter a secret keyword hidden in the rules text. It is impossible to find automatically and requires thorough reading, as well as an understanding of the Russian language.

== Facts ==

The Furnation engine utilized 25,000 lines of PHP code and 4000 lines of JavaScript code.

For February 2009, Furnation had:

* 21 thousand artworks
* 2000 users who left over 290 thousand comments.

'''Transfur''' is an image gallery specializing in [[furry]], animal, and mythological [[transformation|transformations]]. Founded in 1998, it is one of the oldest art archives catering to the furry community.

== Services ==

The archive was designed to overcome many of the typical problems encountered when browsing online art galleries. It contains many advanced features, some not found anywhere else:

* User customizable content filtering.
* Image categorization by [[species]].
* Image categorization by theme.
* Sorting and browsing by number of views.
* Sorting and browsing by popularity.
* Ability for users to create their own custom gallery of favorite images.

== Rules ==

Submitted artwork must be on-topic (transformation-related) and must be of a certain level of quality. In addition, "obscene" and extreme adult content is forbidden.

== Popularity in Japan ==

For many years, Transfur was one of the only furry art galleries to be partially translated into the Japanese language. As a result, it acquired a minor following within the Japanese [[kemono]] community. The term "transfur" is now used as an adjective in Romanji to describe an animal or furry transformation.

'''Kemono Café''' is a website that hosts [[furry]] [[webcomic]]s. The site's home page is a portal to various comics along with a section dedicated to news articles that include news updates on figurines, [[Patreon]], and convention events along with stories of Fable.<ref name="KEMONO">[https://kemono.cafe/ Kemono Café], Retrieved Oct. 25, 2019.</ref>

==Fable Characters==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:Fable-Characters.jpg|thumb|Starting with the upper left image, Sandy, Kona, Maxine, Miko, and Jill.]]
*'''Sandy'''- Height ~ 162cm (5'4"), favorite Food ~ Fried Chicken<ref name="CHARACTERS">[https://kemono.cafe/characters/ Kemono Café - Characters], Retrieved Oct. 25, 2019.</ref>

Imagine yourself coming into possession of a magical ticket. Behind you is a predictable life. There’s no room for dreams where you live. A bright red train pulls into the station and brings with it a promise of another world, but one entirely unknown. That train came for Sandy and, with a dream for a better life burning in her heart, she gave the ticket to the conductor and off they went. Now Sandy is the newest resident of Fable, a world between worlds, and runs the café there; a home for all travelers who take their tickets and follow their dreams.

*'''Kona''' - Height ~ 152cm (5') (before ears), favorite Food ~ Roasted Vegetables

“All Aboard the Escapade!” Kona shouts to a bustling crowd of travelers. As one of Fable’s oldest residents, no one knows how Kona found her magic train or managed to become its conductor. She treats the steam engine as an old friend, ferrying customers back and forth between Kemono Café and their homeworlds like it was something she was born to do. And yet, despite how wondrous her life has been, Kona feels like there’s something deeper about the train she’s on the cusp of understanding.

* '''Maxine''' - Height ~ 137cm (4'6"), favorite Food ~ Tea

One question: Can you find it in Fable? Then you can find it at Maxine’s Eclectic Emporium! Mistress of mercantile and would-be-mother to every wanderer, Maxine unites the town as family. Not to say she doesn’t enjoy the creature comforts of being the richest corgi in Fable… But she’s been charitable to more than a few travelers who come to her in need. “The smile on your face is its own reward!” She’d say loudly and proudly. “But only the first one’s free...” She’d kindly whisper to you on the way out.

* '''Miko''' - Height ~ 167cm (5'6"), favorite Food ~ Glazed Donuts

Does Fable really need a police officer? Technically, it does! Miko’s on the job! But the poor doggo has so little to do in the peaceful town that she’d give up her morning donut for a real perp to chase! She’s really excited about the café opening back up because with all the new people coming through, maybe she’ll have a real job again! But be careful when you visit Fable... If you’re caught breaking the law, Miko will give you such a warning!

* '''Jill''' - Height ~ 160cm (5'3"), favorite Food ~ Pecan Pie

You have to be tough to live in the Forest of Illusion and Jill’s as tough as Fable gets. She’s the town’s forester, harvesting everything that the town needs to grow. Does she need any help with such a hard job? Nah. She only trusts things she’s built with her own two hands! Watch out, Sandy. That axe of hers is sharp. Maybe you can lure her out of the woods with some pie from the café?

'''Furnation.ru''' ('''Фурнейшен.ру‎''', or '''FN''' for short), was the biggest online gallery in Russian [[furry]] [[fandom]]. It was created by [[Bert (administrator)|Bert]] in 2006 specifically for Russian-speaking users. It accepted furry-themed [[art]], [[music]], fiction and poetry. The Furnation.ru is built on principles of Web 2.0, such as [[:wikipedia:Ajax (programming)|AJAX]] and social networking. Users could collect favorites, vote and comment, track blogs and new artwork and so on. There's was a [[PDA]] version optimized for [[mobile devices]].

Users are sorted by quality of their works. Ranking is managed by moderators. There are separate ladders for each type of work:

* The starting rank is "Amateur". Their works didn't appear in the main feed. Amateurs were limited by 3 uploads per day and picture size up to 1024*1024.
* Second rank is "Regular". Regulars' works appeared in the main feed, and their rank's limitation was 6 uploads per day and picture size up to 1600*1600.
* The final rank is "Master". They had no limitations and were even allowed to upload non-furry art.

Furnation had their own [[Jabber]] server called '''FurTalk'''. It uses the same accounts as the website. The contact list of each account had all friends from the website.

Furnation.ru was constantly updated with new features.

== History ==

The main idea of Furnation was a Russian analogue of [[Fur Affinity]]. The idea came to Stormwind one winter morning, on January 11, 2006, around the time when [[y!Gallery]] forbid the publication of furry art. The first design concept of Furnation was a y!Gallery-like functionality.

"Furnation.ru" domain name was registered on 29 March 2006, and work on custom engine had begun. Some days later Bert posted an announcement at the Fur Affinity journal<ref>https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/38505/</ref>. He also hosted the mint new website on its Grand Opening on 26 August 2006. First registrations soon followed.

On 19 Jan 2009, Furnation.ru introduced the user ranking system.

On 24 Jan 2009, website's team launched FurTalk Jabber server.

=== Closure ===

The site went offline in 2021 after being unable to fund either the repairs for the hosting hardware and the hosting fees.<ref>[https://www.furnation.ru ''Проект Furnation.ru - временно приостановлен.''] notice on '''FurNation.ru''''s main homepage. Retreived November 6, 2021.</ref>

== Registration ==

To register, the user had to enter a secret keyword hidden in the rules text. It is impossible to find automatically and requires thorough reading, as well as an understanding of the Russian language.

== Facts ==

The Furnation engine utilized 25,000 lines of PHP code and 4000 lines of JavaScript code.

For February 2009, Furnation had:

* 21 thousand artworks
* 2000 users who left over 290 thousand comments.
* 3500 journals

FurNation had 10000 visitors daily.<ref>http://viewstat.hotlog.ru/site_stat.php?id=395886</ref>

From the launch and to the present day, FurNation had over 21 millions hits.<ref>http://furnation.ru/about/</ref>

The server was upgraded in June 2007. Its last configuration being:

* Two AMD64 Opteron 2.4 GHz, 8 GB DDR2 RAM, 3 x 320 GB SATA raid-5, 100 Mbit, FreeBSD
