Myrra[edit]

No problem =) - Spirou (talk) 22:18, 11 April 2019 (EDT)

Hey There[edit]

So I noticed you used to work for Warner Bros. That's pretty cool actually. --DuskTheRaccoon (talk) 12:33, 10 April 2019 (EDT)

Still do, as a freelancer from time to time. - Spirou (talk) 22:18, 11 April 2019 (EDT)

I see. I also noticed you're quite active on this wiki a lot. I seem like the only other person actively updating this wiki. Well us and GreenReaper (the owner). --DuskTheRaccoon (talk) 22:33, 11 April 2019 (EDT)

There are, and always have been, many transient editors - in any given month, edits by occasional visitors (most interested only in specific topics) tends to be roughly equal to that of established contributors. Traffic fallen over the years, and edits roughly in line with that, but to a point; and in the last few months it increased. I've adjusted our settings to encourage the use of HTTPS, which Google favours - most visits come through search - and it seems to be working, inasmuch as they've switched over from HTTP. Colleagues are often busy (as I have been) but drop in occasionally; WikiFur's been up for 5000 days, and you can't expect people to stick around all the time. (Oddly the top three main-namespace editors by edit count all have about the same number of main-namespaces edits; but activity differs in other namespaces.) --GreenReaper(talk) 17:46, 16 April 2019 (EDT)

Hmmmm good point. Well I've been helping to update this wiki the best I can. The YouTube article definitely needed some work lol --DuskTheRaccoon (talk) 18:03, 16 April 2019 (EDT)

Noodles[edit]

I have tried to politely fix the discrepancies with my wikifur page for a few months now. I noticed that you are the one who keeps changing it to false information. If you would like to learn the actual details, please contact me. Otherwise if the page is not fixed by the end of July, I will be seeking legal counsel. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NoodleDoodle (talk • contribs) .

If you had used this your real handle all this time when making all those edits, instead of different suspicious anon IP addresses, we wouldn't be here and now, wouldn't we?. But, hey, you learn something new every day, don't you?. =) Oh, and the legal threat?, no, no so much (that is something else you learned today). - Spirou (talk) 23:07, 3 July 2019 (EDT)
I should not have to disclose my identity to fix false information. If you ever need help getting correct information there are proper ways to do it. Posting false claims as fact is a little harmful to not only those involved but the lives of those around them, you silly little goose :D
Also to add, as you can see, I literally just made this account today just so I could message you —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NoodleDoodle (talk • contribs) .

Hey if they keep updating your account with false info about you and removing the true info, that’s textbook slander and you can 100% pursue legal action, as well as you should. And to Spirou, that legal threat is valid as you committed slander. So yes, yes so much.

Kitsugai[edit]

Hey there. Regarding the lemonbrat debacle. It was a pretty big even that got a lot of attention in the community. She is trying to cash in on the drama she created so it’s only fair that the whole story be known. Just because it was resolved does not mean it didn’t happen and people should know about it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 2601:603:4d00:6:a851:8ca3:9ad6:d6e4 (talk • contribs) .

You just proved that you hide the truth and event based on your own opinions, not facts and therefore have proven yourself to be biased and untrustworthy. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 2601:603:4d00:6:a1b5:3b03:1346:9c79 (talk • contribs) .
The matter with the fursuit was solved, period, and "hearsay" is not valid info, by the way. You are taking the side of Lemonbrat to bash the other user with unreferenced/NPOV statements under the guise of reporting a possible "beware" situation. Slam the user directly if you wish, don't hide behind the, again, resolve, non-notable, fursuit matter. - Spirou (talk) 23:15, 18 August 2019 (EDT)
Except I provided a link directly to the beware and included exactly what had happened. Just because what had happened made Camaro turn out worse
That doesn’t mean bias, that means truth. The mere fact you are calling easily shown and proven circumstances bias just shows your own. And again, what part of just because something is solved doesn’t mean it didn’t happen do you not get. That’s like saying that someone killed someone was found guilty, does that mean it didn’t happen? No, it doesn’t. Way to hide the actions of another person and taking her side ignoring legitimate proof. Good to know that this site is about as bad as encyclopedia Dramatica, if not worse as you peddle in bias and lies. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 2601:603:4d00:6:c5aa:f3be:e87a:710c (talk • contribs) .
I looked through what was on the page, and it definitely is not worded with NPOV, and cites no other sources other than the beware, which quite frankly, doesn't even put the situation in favor of Lemonbrat as the wiki text did, that's pretty obvious by reading the comments of the beware posting. There is no bias here - if someone had posted something bashing Lemonbrat, we'd have dealt with it in the same way. --FrostTheFox (talk) 21:58, 24 August 2019 (EDT)

Excuse me, I've got a question for you![edit]

How come you deleted that "To whom it may concern..." message from WikiFur? This is a VERY serious message I put on the talk pages of Scotty Arsenault and Commander Kitty!

So, did you get it? I need the answer now! Thank you!

--83.185.35.154 01:02, 31 August 2019 (EDT)

Yes, it was reverted because you erased other users posts on those articles. Now take this one out or I will take it out for message spamming. - Spirou (talk) 02:28, 31 August 2019 (EDT)
I'm DEEPLY sorry, Spirou! I did NOT mean to erase other users posts on those articles! I don't know what to do, but PLEASE don't block me! :'( --83.185.35.154 02:59, 31 August 2019 (EDT)

From Fruxuyup Artist[edit]

Hello. I am writing to request personal exclusion from the website. There is currently a page to the same name as the one above, which I wish to be removed. Thank you. -Fruxuyup Artist (18/09/2019)

Jalen D Folf[edit]

I have already made my case on the article's Talk page and will reiterate here: a lot of the information presented on the current version of the article is not up to date. Jalen has changed his fursona since the image was uploaded, has stopped using the "jd22292" name, subsequently changing his social media accounts, has more recently dropped the D from his name, and has gained new social media accounts, such as at Twitch. I doubt he even meets this Wiki's notability criteria. 2601:589:8000:D340:2464:3DE4:C26F:84E0 20:25, 19 September 2019 (EDT)

Keziah[edit]

Hey there -- thank you for going over my addition to the Wiki! I'll be working on cleaning it up a bit more, and my apologies for the infobox usage; didn't know about the special pages usage for it, so thank you for correcting me there. Looking forward to helping contribute where I can! I appreciate your time and effort you put into the site. Cheers! --KEZIAH (talk) 04:00, 2 October 2019 (EDT)

Grrfret[edit]

Hi. Signed up for an account today, admittedly not having delved into the rules of this site first so I'll start off by apologizing if I've broken any. VPN was active when I signed up, also I used a protonmail account which has given me grief on a couple of other sites but I like it for its extra security. Anyway, a few hours after signing up for my first account (I've only browsed without signing in before), I received this message when I went to check my profile:

"This user is currently blocked. The latest block log entry is provided below for reference: 12:10, 24 September 2019 Spirou (Talk | contribs) blocked Grrfret (Talk | contribs) with an expiry time of 1 year (account creation disabled, email disabled, cannot edit own talk page) (Ban evasion: Account spamming (continuing))"

I assume this has either something to do with my VPN, protonmail or combination of both. Is there anything I can do to get unbanned?

Thanks!

- Just a quick update to say thank you very much for restoring my username to unbanned status :)

Dove Windsor article[edit]

Thank you for deleting Dove Windsor. I kind of wished that I didn't add my personal information in the first place. At least it has been deleted. Thank you! --EOG (talk) 09:20, 18 October 2019 (EDT)

Tabyhunterwolf[edit]

I need help, there's one page originated by original fursona owner page had disabled public edit, I would like to add more info about him, I know him very well and I meet him in Furs Upon Malaysia (FURUM) personally, I tried to edit but failed to do so. Curator pls help. Could you change from disable public edit to public edit? That will allow me to add more info about this furry.

Tabyhunterwolf I[edit]

Stop deleting my pages without permission, I had put a lot of efforts on my wikis, you deleted without coticing me, that's really rude! :( Restore it back! You making me sick! Also this website don't have a page to save draft without posting to public.I also need thinking what to write. - Tabyhunterwolf(talk) (7 November 2019 6:07 PM Malaysia Time)

Unfinished articles need to be finished, you cannot keep creating half done jobs (been going around all the articles you have created and added to, and it's been a pain to re-edit them). No, is not rude, rude is creating one paragraph articles like Ben-Ben without giving editors enough material to work with, or half dangling ones like Seelmaru that didn't have the basic syntax necessary to complete it.
Also this website don't have a page to save draft,... I'm looking at it right now, it is called Show Preview, one of three buttons sandwiched between Save page and Show changes. And if you need time to work on an article, use a text editor to work offline or use the future article's user page to mock it up, preview it, then posting it (while consulting the Furry Book of Style for tips). Hope this helps. - Spirou (talk) 05:29, 7 November 2019 (EST)

Tabyhunterwolf II[edit]

Could you upload my works online, at least I can have a track about my work. - Tabyhunterwolf (talk) (7 November 2019 6:35 PM Malaysia Time)

Tabyhunterwolf III[edit]

I just couldn't understand why you had deleted collaborations & convention attencdance on "Majira Strawberry's page, although they are based on true information. Your edits made me quite confused. You just couldn't respect people's hardwork, you just delete whatever you think it's wrong information, I actually watch all Majira Strawberry's Youtube video for a few hours, you didn't even watch all Majira Strawberry's videos. >:( - Tabyhunterwolf (talk) (14 November 2019 11:18 AM Malaysia Time)

The convention dates should have stayed on my last edit, it seems it was a failed copy/paste. The collaboration section is non-notable, bloated and is too common (everybody collaborates, it doesn't need to be announced everywhere). The image influx is excessive as it is, the least notable ones (i.e. a social media front page screenshot) can go. You should be careful in your continuing edits, as you keep adding redundant info over and over, in data and internal/external links. This is an informative article, not a vanity one - Spirou (talk) 22:51, 13 November 2019 (EST)

Tabyhunterwolf IV[edit]

You are still escaping my question, the point is you didn't even watch Majira Strawberry's whole youtube channel videos, you just edit out all my serious hardwork, that's really disrecpectfull. You kept escaping my question, didn't even admit that you were wrong at this answer. That's why some furries quit editing & contributing to Wiki Fur. Just quit doing your bullshit edits and watch all Majira Strawberry's videos before you delet all my edits. - Tabyhunterwolf (talk) (14 November 2019 12:23 PM Malaysia Time)

Watch your language and don't revert valid edits. You only get one warning. - Spirou (talk) 23:24, 13 November 2019 (EST)

Saros[edit]

Saphy has a track record of doing exactly what he’s being accused of, and the fact that it’s a con itself saying it means it holds much more weight than random twitter comments. Oh and “the allegations aren’t explained”? Can you not read? It’s pretty black and white. How about doing research before trying to protect Saphy again. Using your power to further your own views rather than facts. Seems to be a track record for you. I’ll take note —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 134.39.241.130 (talk • contribs) .

Create an account (or wait until the temp protection expires) and provide enough reference material for the allegation to stick. Until then, you are just another anon IP accuser insinuating a non-backed up claim in need of verification. - Spirou (talk) 14:00, 14 November 2019 (EST)
So the word of the chair and vice chair of a convention isn’t enough? Way to defend the attacker and not the victim? If you knew anything about Saphy in the slightest, you would know what they said he did is par for the course. The letter happened, I linked the letter. Unsubstantiated my butt. And it’s not me making the accusation, it’s a full fledged con. You think Saphy is innocent talk to them, in the meantime, the letter was sent, saphys record does him in, and you need to act like an admin and stop cherry-picking what you want in articles. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 134.39.241.130 (talk • contribs) .
Is not about this person is innocent or guilty, is about the allegation being unreferenced. And, as the accuser, is your responsibility to provide the information needed to substantiate the claim (we are not, but we could, just add a [citation needed] tag and hope for the best). Oh, I already looked it up the first time it appeared on November 11 (the article Saph is very often targeted, so it's not unknown to us, "allegations" wise), still needs references to become valid article data. - Spirou (talk) 14:39, 14 November 2019 (EST)

An ashamed Malaysian fur[edit]

Hi there. There's this Tabyhunterwolf guy that has been around and doing an editing spree on furcons and other people. He said it was 'A contribution to the furry fandom'. We, the others sees it as an unnecessary effort as he was new in the community. I know this is a strange request, but can you revert back all of the changes he made on every country furcons and people/character/fursona to the point before he edits them. This is on behalf of other people as well because it makes us, the Malaysian Fur Community looks bad. Thank you, and sorry this happened to you and your colleagues. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 2405:3800:282:fb53:d015:a3a2:ff08:363 (talk • contribs) .

Instead of reverting all off his edits, it would be more efficient of just editing out the wrong or inaccurate data, which editors and curators already have done, and will continue to do so. - Spirou (talk) 02:50, 2 December 2019 (EST)

The Lupin V Wolfe controversy[edit]

Question: Why have you locked the Lupin V Wolfe stub on the bad version, the one with less references & links, the one requiring clarifications and citations? The one Furry Underbelly, without any supporting evidence, insists is the truth, while the real Lupin's version included references. Look, I'm the Lupin Wolfe, not Lupin V Wolfe, who's information is in that dox. They went after Lupin V and found me instead. And nobody wants to drop it. I would not care, or even be aware of it, except for people coming to me because they thought I committed suicide over cyber-bullying. Again, mistaken identity, but in reverse this time. So, with respect for the dead, and because I know I'm not him, I've taken to maintaining the correct version of Lupin V's page. And now, "for Christmas," you have locked the page on the version with my information attributed to someone else! Lupin V Wolfe was right: Furry Underbelly I a damned Vandal, even if you ignore their motives. They are taking down a well-referenced and formatted Wiki page, in favor of an interior one, which now two people are contesting the validity of. If you care so much about WikiFur, why don't you lock the version that is more well-composed and -referenced? Not to mention contains less information, and poorer references. This is beginning to look like the Encyclopedia Dramatica! If you can lock pages, why don't you lock it on the version that the person it was about wanted when they died? The other Lupin Wolfe (talk) 14:11, 25 December 2019 (EST)

You can edit the page again at the beginning of the year, take a break until then. - Spirou (talk) 13:58, 28 December 2019 (EST)

Delete Page[edit]

Hello! I recently attempted to post a deletion request for a page containing my real name *deleted* and information about where I lived. I don't want to be listed on WikiFur, under any moniker, and definitely not under my real name. I am frequently the target of real world doxxing attacks from alt-right trolls and this page makes me less safe. Unfortunately you restored the personal information, so I am trying again to request that WikiFur delete the page under your Personal Exclusion policy. If you could also delete reference to the page in this comment, I would appreciate it.

Happy to verify my identity via other means, if necessary, but my data needs to be deleted off of this website. Thanks! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.74.136.165 (talk • contribs) .

Possible to delete page + all of its edit histories?[edit]

Thanks for editing my page https://en.wikifur.com/wiki/The_Realist through the years. I made some dumb mistakes oversharing info all over when I was in university, and this corner of the Internet was no exception to that habit I had back then. I've had to go through and update things to explain the content of the previous versions, which led to more explaining, which kind of snowballed out of control and led to the fluff-filled mess that is my page today. Nobody should have to read all of that. Since trying to explain things spiraled out of control, I'd like to ask if it's possible to just erase this page from the site while I'm still relatively a nobody... maybe to start over years from now if I ever gain some traction in the community? Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks.

Suspicious edits[edit]

You banned the creator of this edit: https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Furry_Survey&curid=21379&diff=522410&oldid=468525 but, after the fact, I realise that the author of this edit may be the same person: https://en.wikifur.com/w/index.php?title=Furry_Survey&curid=21379&diff=522411&oldid=522410

I realised the first edit may have been done solely to slip in the second edit, which, if you compare it to the edit before both of those... (by using my own correction diff, too) the words "positive" and "negative" are swapped. i.e. making an influential change by disguising it as an undo. So you should probably consider the second person bannable too, given his changes were very very intentional.

My posts were deleted, and I'd like to recover my files[edit]

My posts on Awiti and Lira were recently taken down, and I was wondering if the information is still available in some way. I apologise for the insuffiency that the posts lacked; I generally had no idea that leaving areas unkempt would be an issue, and I have to ask, is there a way to repost them once I've gotten everything sorted out, or will it risk a ban? I only ask, cause a lot of the work was an expansion on pre-existing stories that I'd planned to publish.

I also apologise if Lira's post was too NSFW. I'll refrain in future.
