==Current talks==

== Alasker Heston ==

Thanks a lot for your help!! I'm still getting use to this site, but I aprreciate your help that there's no way to describe it!

== Hoof Beat ==

Nice work putting ''[[Hoof Beat]]'' together. I imagine it'll remain a one-shot, but it'll probably be a topic of search interest for some time to come. --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]<sup>([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]])</sup> 06:09, 16 July 2012 (EDT)

== Syrik ==

thank you for editing my page, i created it before i made this account, is there a way to link my page to my account here so i can complete it with pictures? my ip should still be logged, if not then i can prove its me via fa, my website or any other form of contact

:Hello, Syrik. I've put in tags so that the [[Syrik|Article about you]] has a pointer to [[User:Syrik|your User Page]] and vice-versa. Your User Page is a personal space where you can put whatever you want. This can include photographs/images. (Of course, images can also be added to the Article if you wish.)--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 12:15, 22 July 2012 (EDT)

== Future plans ==

I've added a mention in [[Help:Furry Book of Style‎#Articles about people]] that future plans should not be included in articles. Aligning practice and style help! -- [[User:Sine|Sine]] 13:35, 30 July 2012 (EDT)

== Can I have my article removed ==

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/SableQueanVilaya I wish to have this article removed COMPLETELY. thanks.{{unsigned|SableQueanVilaya}}

:GreenReaper has made a note of your request for personal exclusion on the [[Talk:SableQueanVilaya|article's talk page]]. Assuming there are no objections within 24 hours, the article will then be deleted and locked against further edits. Any articles made for alternate identities will, of course, remain open for editing.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 14:30, 4 August 2012 (EDT)

== Changing my page. ==

May I know why my page info was changed?
Thank you in advance.
My page: http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/CrescoTheEko

:If you wish to revert to having an article about you on WikiFur, you are welcome to request to have [[BillyTheCat128]] unlocked and restored. You could then edit that article, or move it across to [[CrescoTheEko]] if you prefer. You should note, however, that exclusive editing rights will not be granted. Although this was once a possibility, long ago, admins frown upon it now since i) it goes against the idea of a wiki where all may edit, and ii) it invariably resulted in an abandoned, unmaintained article.

:So you choices are to remain excluded, or unlock your old article for all to edit.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 15:27, 17 August 2012 (EDT)

In that case I wish to unlock my old article and I guess I should just keep a close eye on inaccuracies.{{unsigned|BillyTheCat128}}

:The article at [[BillyTheCat128]] has been unlocked and restored, and moved across to your preferred name of [[CrescoTheEko]]. You are free to update it now. Have fun.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 15:43, 17 August 2012 (EDT)

== Bundaberg Furries on Channel 7 ==

I noticed on [[Timeline of media coverage]] that it had the news Paper links to the Story about the Furries in the Bindabergbvg Botanic Gardens and I thought this link of a clip of channel 7's coverage might be useful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYpZAMUtEwg&feature=youtube_gdata_player . I'm not entirely sure if I should add it myself, or if theres some submission process to do so, so I figured I should pass the link onto you :3 -- [[User:KaiAdin|KaiAdin]] 06:39, 18 August 2012 (EDT)

:Hello, KaiAdin. There's no submission process for the [[Timeline of media coverage]], so feel free to edit it yourself and add in the link to Channel 7's coverage. Thanks for the info!--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 13:17, 18 August 2012 (EDT)

Getting this when I try to sign up for an account.

:Huh. Thanks for pointing it out, I'll pass a note on to GreenReaper and see what he says.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 11:43, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

:Looks like this was the result of backporting a security patch that used a feature not in our current version of MediaWiki. Fixed it now. Thanks for the heads-up! --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]<sup>([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]])</sup> 14:07, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

== Article Remove Request==
http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Akino_Aurora
Could this Article be removed please? A "MyFur" page has been linked to it. In order to stop further confusion, could this article be removed, as this it is no longer of use to me anyway? The information on "MyFur" is incorrect also. Thank you in advance.{{unsigned|Akino}}

:Done.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 16:31, 21 September 2012 (EDT)

== Motivations behind all the Stubs on AU furries. ==

Hiya Higgs Raccoon, a few of the local furries I know have recently discovered the Stub pages on them that you created, which has caused a small discussion on twitter to occur.

I'm kinda curious at ''why'' you do this, and ''where'' you initially gather the names of the furries that have made articles about.

I personally don't mind the page you created on me, but some are of the opinion that it perhaps would be nice if you asked peeps first for permission to post such things (even if they may be easily googled and such).

Anyway, I'm sorry if this isn't the most appropriate forum to ask you this, but it seems to be the most logical, since you're the initial creator of all of these stubs! Thanks --[[User:KaiAdin|KaiAdin]] 07:10, 24 September 2012 (EDT)

:Let's see... Why do I create stub articles? A variety of reasons, I guess. Being a scientist, recording and cataloguing things goes with the territory. Also, I think the fandom as a whole is ''worth'' recording. And not just all the well-known artists, fursuiters, convention organisers, etc. I think more everyday furries should be included, too, so that WikiFur records a more complete cross-section of the fandom. As to why I create stubs on the AU furries, that's because I'm an Ozfurry myself (though I don't get to be there that often anymore.)
:As to where I gather the names... all sorts of places. LiveJournal, Fur Affinity (with its [http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ozfurs ready-made list of Ozfurs]), Twitter (yes, WikiFur knows [https://twitter.com/KaiAdin/status/250185725281193984 when you're talking about us]), the Fursuit Database, WikiFur itself (lots of red links to google)... pretty much anywhere furries gather online.
:Because the information included in articles is gleaned from public profiles that appear in the simplest google searchs (I, for one, don't bother ''digging'' for information), WikiFur doesn't have any policy regarding asking permission first. Feel free to open a discussion about it on [[WikiFur_talk:Policies_and_guidelines|the Policies and Guidelines page]], if you like. Of course, anyone who ''has'' an article here and wants its removed is welcome to request [[WikiFur:Personal_exclusion|personal exclusion]].--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 17:27, 24 September 2012 (EDT)

:: Hehe, Yea I figured you'd find the mentions on twitter. As I said I'm not personally opposed to it, I was just curious myself as to why! Thanks again for clearing that up :3 -- [[User:KaiAdin|KaiAdin]] 21:03, 24 September 2012 (EDT)

== ToonPimp ==

Thank you for cleaning up the ToonPimp page. I hadn't been cognizant of all the steps needed in order to retain the edit history, and I probably would have gotten it wrong if I'd tried to do it myself. [[User:APDamien|APDamien]] 16:47, 28 September 2012 (EDT)

== Hetsu Procyon==

er hello, I wanted to know why my article is back- I've requested it to be deleted several times, and each time it's been taken down for a short period of time, only to reappear again.
I want it gone because it violates my privacy, I don't understand why it keeps getting put back there.
Thanks.{{unsigned|213.120.40.126}}

:Sorry about that. There was nothing that linked your new name to your old one, so I created a new article without realising you'd already been catalogued previously. The [[Hetsu Procyon]] article has now been deleted and replaced with a redirect to the earlier article (which is still excluded, as per your wishes).--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 15:09, 30 September 2012 (EDT)

== Article Removal Request ==

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Maldavius_Figtree{{unsigned|216.148.0.72}}

I would like this removed entirely.
I attempted to edit out my information and it keeps being replaced.

:If you are [[Maldavius Figtree]] and would like to request [[WikiFur:Personal_exclusion|personal exclusion]], it would help if you could leave a note in your Fur Affinity profile saying "Delete me" (or similar). This would be taken as proof that you are the person the article is about, and the article will then be deleted and locked against further edits.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 17:40, 12 November 2012 (EST)

== Cats on user pages ==

I respectfully disagree! Cats are [[Wikipedia:User:GreenReaper|absolutely suitable for user pages]]. ;-) --[[User:GreenReaper|GreenReaper]]<sup>([[User talk:GreenReaper|talk]])</sup> 21:22, 13 November 2012 (EST)

== Article Removal ==

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/XJayne I wish to have this article removed due to harassment issues from an anonymous user to prevent further issues. Thank you. --[[User:xJayne|xJayne]] 07:27, 13 December 2012 EDT)

:Hello, xJayne. Are you sure you want the article about you removed? Vandalism can always be reverted, and you can always put the article on your Watch list so you will be alerted every time an edit is made to it. If you're sure, though, then there won't be a problem in removing and locking the article.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 00:48, 13 December 2012 (EST)

== Syrik ==

I would like to have the article on me removed due to privacy and security reasons. Please and thank you.{{unsigned|Syrik}}
:Done. If you should ever change your mind, you can ask any curator to unlock the article again.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 06:08, 20 December 2012 (EST)

== Article Removal ==

http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/SDraw
I started doing all sharply, and it was my mistake adolescence. Could you delete this? -- [[User:SDraw|SDraw]] 29 December 0:55 (GMT +4)

:Done. The article has now been deleted and locked. If you change your mind in future, you can ask any curator to unlock the article.--[[User:Higgs Raccoon|Higgs Raccoon]] 16:05, 28 December 2012 (EST)

== Categories ==

Oops - apologies :) [[User:Bezel|Bezel]] 13:39, 18 January 2013 (EST)

== Deletion of WikiFur Page ==

Heya, thanks for helping me setup a WikiFur page for myself early September. I've now decided against having one, is there any way I can get it removed? Would be useful for some help on this one, I can't seem to find out where to remove it. Thanks [[User:Toasted|Toasted]] 16:52, 22 January 2013 (EST)

== FurFright dates ==

I put the FurFright dates back that you had removed. You can see them [http://furfright.org/2013/ here] and they appear in advertisements in many furry convention books including FurFright 2012, FC 2013, and I believe MFF 2012. I have a PDF of the ad as well which I would be happy to share. I'd appreciate it if you would ask first or let me know that you were reverting my change instead of doing so without telling me. Thanks. [[User:Skippyfox|skippyfox]] 12:53, 28 January 2013 (EST)

== what's up with adding stuff I don't want here? ==

I'm trying to get my stuff removed from here and you put it back. This is really frustrating.

Go check my journal on DA... That should do it. Thanks
