"was the earliest known precursor for a furry and friend tracker and locator service" I'm confused by this opening. Was it the earliest tracker and locator service, or not a complete service, or...? -- Sine 20:11, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Ah, I see,... let me reworded,... Feel free to re-tweak if I don't get it right on the rewrite (Spirou) 63.204.227.202 20:25, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

start date?[edit]

Article current says "Ran from/to: 1997", but http://www.furcen.org/fgc/about.html says:

  • (a) "Updated Furry Database (Added 17 new entries.)" happened on "September 14th, 1996"
  • (b) Furry Database is mentioned twice and then
  • (c) "Added Furry/Were Database Request Form and CGI!" happened on "October 15, 1996:"

I'm wondering... (1) When did the Database start? and (2) Did the database start as the "Furry Database" and was renamed "Furry/Were Database"? --EarthFurst 01:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Added cleanup template[edit]

I've added the cleanup template because I find this article incomplete and confusingly-written, from the first sentence on. Was this databse the earliest known? the earliest created? When was it revamped as the Furry Database?

The Layout section can perhaps be deleted entirely; it's very badly worded, not particularly notable to my mind, and not needed if we can link to the databse itself (or archived coopies of same).

Meanwhile, The Furry/Were Database seems to be up still? again? mirrored? at http://www.furcen.org/fgc/furalpha.html
