Talk:PechaKucha

message: I don't think this article needs links to the architecture firm, that the nightclub owners who founded this also run. Doesn't add anything to the article, I'm not even sure mentioning it is important? - SimonLyall 01:43, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually it's the other way round, the architecture firm was first, then they opened the club. The combination of the two led to the events. That they are architects should be mentioned because it reflects the background in which Pechakucha was created (as an antidote to boring architecture presentations). If you like I can cite it in the article, although it seems reasonable to allow it as a "related link" Sparkzilla 02:49, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: It was 2003, and Mark Dytham and Astrid Klein of Klein Dytham Architecture (KDa) were looking for an event that would draw people to SuperDeluxe, the bar and event space they and a few like-minded individuals had set up in Roppongi.  Sparkzilla 02:18, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

message: According to , the term Pecha Kucha is a registered trade mark, and you need to get approval (a local organizer told me even a license) to organize one. This means agreeing to the terms of use, which includes giving "a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive right and license to use, display, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, perform, promote, archive, translate, and to create derivative works and compilations, in whole or in part" from anything that has been published on the website to the Pecha Kucha organization.

replies: text: Indeed -- I'm amazed anybody's prepared to sign up for such corporate pwnage just to use a cool-sounding name. I'm also a little disappointed that this 'pedia entry reads so much like a marketing leaflet.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.194.48.42 (talk) 11:17, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Somebody added comments about the accessibility of Pecha Kucha style and guidelines on how to improve the accessibility, which was promptly removed. I have reinstated these additions as I feel they are constructive and bring up a good point about the drawbacks of the style with real guidelines on how to address these drawbacks.

replies: text: A wikipedia article is not the place for these. Articles should not contain original reasearch or personal opinion. I see someone has already removed the section. - SimonLyall (talk) 11:13, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Accessibility 

message: I just read the article and didn't really get what its about. The first paragraph is about pronounciation and not the thing itself. I will mov the pronounciation part in its own chapter and try to rehash a good definition of the term as expected from a encyclopedia. Please improve further...

message: In compliance with the spirit (and perhaps the letter) of WP:PRESERVE, I've reproduced here a paragraph removed by this recent revert: 
:To start a PechaKucha Night, potential organizers contact the PechaKucha organization, and after an informal application process, exchange a "handshake" agreement.http://pecha-kucha.org/night/start-a-city Organizers are asked to produce a minimum of 4 events a year. If a PechaKucha Night series becomes inactive due to an organizer no longer being able to run it, someone else can apply to restart it. Only one PechaKucha Night series is allowed per city.
WP:SPA edits can be problematic, and perhaps there was some extraneous "spammy" linking elsewhere in the edit reverted. However, just as we should not bite newbies, we also shouldn't sweep their useful contributions under the rug without comment. Perhaps the above paragraph lacks independent sourcing, but I think we can agree that simply adding an attribution to the effect of "according to the PechaKucha Night official website", there's no policy violation here, as long as the website actually does say some such thing. (And it is a paraphrase, so there's no objection from WP:PLAG.) The question is only whether it's appropriate for this article to include what might be legitimately removed only under a rather strained reading of WP:NOTHOWTO. If there's no objection, I'll restore it within a few days. Yakushima (talk) 15:52, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Concur with readding the graf with your suggested attribution; it's of general interest how these things come to be. PRRfan (talk) 20:09, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Without word from the original deleter, I'll assume we've reached consensus. Paragraph restored. Yakushima (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  A removed paragraph copied here 

message: It appears that someone edited the page and removed most of the references, without updating the post to remove the links to the references in the main paragraphs. It may have been accidental, but I don't know the protocol for these types of issues. Can someone update the post with the correct (and recommended) references?
