Talk:Furry fandom/Archive 1

message: To anyone wondering about the lack of a Furry article: the original article has been redirected to furry fandom as per agreement on the discussion page in the original furry article. If you wish to add/subtract/edit any information, please do so on the furry fandom page rather than trying to resurrect the Furry page. Thanks! -- Grumpyhan 04:17, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: What is "Zootropic Paranoia" ? Google produces only this article for that term! If it is a term coined within this community, could it be briefly explained please? -- Tarquin

message: This edit was an extensive reorganization of the article, bringing together related ideas and excising redundant material (and some weasel and non-NPOV language). "See Also" links were incorporated into the text as free links. PeterCat 03:59, Oct 29, 2003 (UTC)
:I would think weasel words would be encouraged on this particular topic --Calieber 18:49, Oct 30, 2003 (UTC)
Is the quote "G*d Damned" accurate or has that censoring been done by the editor who put it in? If so, why is God censored rather than Damned? I'd suggest leaving it as "God Damned" unless the original was also censored. --Darac 14:55, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)

thread_title:  Extensive edit/reorganization 

message: I think the relationship of our fandom to scifi is tenuous at best. I've seen more fantasy elements in the fandom than scifi. Granted, aliens would kind of technically be furs (alien animals that are anthros.. kind of) in the same way that humans are kind of ape anthros.. But thats not where the fandom comes from and science fiction is a rather small subset. I'm recommending we remove the part that says we're a subset of the scifi fandom. - Augur 14 august 2004
:Hmm, the reason why it is categorized as a sub-genre of scifi could be that the furry fandom started at sci-fi-conventions (correct me if I'm wrong). So it originated from the sci-fi genre, but you are of course correct that it is no sub-genre of sci-fi. Actually furry can be any kind of genre imaginable, but fantasy would be the most fitting one I think.
:Oh, and please do not make such edits. If you disagree with something on an article just ask on the talk page or Be Bold and change the article the way you think is right. A "(Maybe??)" in an article does not look very professional. Thanks for mentioning this anyways! --Conti|✉ 09:24, Aug 14, 2004 (UTC)
::Yeah, furry originated from sci-fi.  But, it no longer being there, has evolved more into a kind of medium than a genre.  —Muke Tever 01:40, 14 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Though Perry Bible Fellowship is a pretty funny comic, um, whoever the anonymous person who keeps posting this to the talk page is, I don't really care what you get off on, but I'm afraid we can't use that image on wikipedia. If you're really interested in putting it somewhere, by all means, put it in the PBF article. --Prangton 01:22, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Well you could have mentioned this.  But then nope you also have to delete every single post I make.  My comment is simply, does this comment not relate to furry an yiff?  219.241.129.212 01:28, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  WikiFur - a home for the furry community 

message: Amazingly enough, WikiFur has managed to gain 750 article pages in its first month without a single line of discussion here. I though I should note this in passing, in case people thought it was an idea that went nowhere. If you're just reading this now, come join us! GreenReaper 05:01, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
