===Remove articles===
Hello, Spirou. As the original creator, I would like to have these pages removed, or if not possible, locked.
* [[Redwall Wars Wiki]]
* [[SalemtheCruel]]
* [[Tarnfalk]]
* [[Bluestripe the Wild]]
* [[Merlock]] (apparently created before I remembered to log in. https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/141.126.170.210 is me.)

Thank you for your time! [[User:Tekhonataar|Tekhonataar]] ([[User talk:Tekhonataar|talk]]) 20:09, 4 March 2021 (EST)

:Hallo there. Sites like [[Redwall Wars Wiki]] are not subject to Personal Exclusion (public knowledge, like [[Wikipedia]] itself, for example), and user articles can request Personal Exclusion by the actual owners, not third parties unless designated by the initial user (or family, or legally). Hope this helps - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 23:42, 4 March 2021 (EST)

===Merge/edits of Etrius vanRandr===

You did a pretty terrible job of merging my page on Zoey Lavender to my main page.

Made it seem like Zoey was my primary fursona. Don't edit when you're tired, hehe.

Zoey is not a fursona, she is a separate character and is owned by a different person, not me.

I gifted the character to one of my best friends, and while I created her, she is no longer "mine". I was going to edit the page to reflect the new owner, but found that you had merged my "person" page with a "character" page.

https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Etrius_vanRandr

I'm going to undo that change as it's important that the two pages remain separate.{{unsigned|WhiteTigerOfTheWest}}

:In that case, she will remain on the character user page until the new owner's page is created. "''She is no longer "mine".''" She is noted as being yours and not transferred to another user, please in the future make it more clear. [[Character]] or [[fursona]], it's not notable enough to qualify for its own article at this time. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 17:20, 11 March 2021 (EST)

::And if my friend doesn't want her name or usernames put onto WikiFur? I'm fine with my page despite its multiple vandalisms, and my friend is fine with the gift I gave her having its own page. I was going to make it clear but you had merged the page before I got a chance. While I understand your intent is to prevent spam by random Joe Schmoes overpopulating this site with their multitude of characters, there's enough detail in the submission to warrant its own page, and the character is significant enough to warrant its own page. Heck, there's more info on that character than there is on my own. If you need my contact info to discuss changes before you make them, I can provide it. If you absolutely MUST merge pages I create, create a separate "created characters" or "owned characters" section separate from the main entry on my page. Distinction is important. {{unsigned|WhiteTigerOfTheWest}}

:::Still about '''Notability''' or being '''[[Krystal can't enjoy her sandwich|Special]]''' (still not [[Zig Zag]] either). We haven't allowed others in the past, with their creators spouting the same, or other, reasons why her/his/their art/characters should stay (but nobody else's). If we open the gates now with yours, who decides, or not, who goes in, and so, should we then revisit all the hundreds of characters/fursonas/ocs that were not allowed on the wiki in the past?. Yes? no? why not? some were as detailed or more than yours, with more pictures, links, etc.

:::I have already been on this side of the convo many, many, many times before. We explain, and we hope users see our side because we really try to help (our logo is not "F*ck em and the horsie they rode on", truly). Now comes the part where we curators expect that our explanations may have hit home.

:::(P.S. and actually, saving characters/fursonas/ocs to the talk page is a recent thing. Prior to it, they would be delated as "not-enough content" or "no user/creator found" until the creator or owner's article was created. Higher-ups have now decreed instead to try to save the data for future re-insertion back into the wiki whenever we can. I have 53 articles which I'm giving a grace period until I delete them after saving the data on the user/talk page, so we are going the extra mile for Wikifur's users, just FYI). - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 01:25, 12 March 2021 (EST)

:::: That makes sense, I will talk with my friend to see if she can think of a placeholder that's unrelated to any of her current usernames. As for "stubs" about a person, how much information is actually required? Is there a word count requirement or something? I will try to make the page about her as non-intrusive as I can unless I get permission to do so otherwise. {{unsigned|WhiteTigerOfTheWest}}

:::::Just basic info: Basic Who/what and some external links to show/confirm who she/he/they are. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]])

===Category Internal Errors===

Hi, Spirou. I've noticed that I've been getting internal errors when I click on any category available. I want to be able to see the lists, like usual. Today I seem to be getting threads of text when I click on any. Is this user-end, or server-side? - [[User:Meeran|Meeran]] ([[User talk:Meeran|talk]]) 14:01, 16 April 2021 (EST)
:Hallo Meeran, [[GreenReaper]] should be more of a help on this matter. - [[User:Spirou|Spirou]] ([[User talk:Spirou|talk]]) 01:22, 19 April 2021 (EDT)

===Page removal and edit log wiped===
Apologies if I do this wrong, I don't really know how to Wiki, but I have tried contacting staff multiple times through both the help desk forum and email to try and get a page removed and edit long wiped clean but have gotten no response. [[Jax The Purple Bat]]. It's old, irrelevant, gives me major privacy and security concerns, and haven't been part of the fandom for over a decade now. I will provide proof that I am the one in the article via some other means if necessary as whatever account/email I might have used back then has long been forgotten.

Hello, I would like the removal of my page https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Jax_The_Purple_Bat and it's history, as well as this account locked and shut down please. It hasn't been relevant for over a decade and I have major privacy and security concerns. Thank you.
