message: Anyone have any reference for the "toonmorphic" comment in the article?  I Googled on the term and got exactly one hit—this article.  --Dajagr 01:29, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Right, which means that there's only one person who knows what in the tapdancing hell that word is supposed to mean.  Good call.  --Luigifan 11:29, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wow. June 20, 1996. How did they dredge up that word...? -kotra 00:58, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Toonmorphic 

message: I suggest mentioning some of the sites that are - for the fandom - notable somewhere in the article. Lunus 19:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You mean, sites like Fan Art Central?  --Luigifan 11:28, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe, I don't know that particular site. But yeah, Furaffinity, VCL, stuff like that. Lunus 16:25, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

text: Right, like that, but sites that are, not sites that aren't. :-) GreenReaper 16:42, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I agree. Let's go for it. ISD 09:28, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Yay! Or something. Let's get to work. Bengaley 17:48, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

text: *gasp!* Haha, on a more serious note interested editors should come on over and sign up now. Alot of decisions are being made now that will effect the wikiproject for some time. The more editors we get on board at the start the less work that will have to done later. So come on down! NeoFreak 03:48, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  WikiProject Furry 

message: I thought about, for the erotic section, that maybe we should include like a screen shot of one of the furcadia erotic rooms. Crazy, sad stuff... but relevant never the less. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.46.60.64 (talk • contribs).
:That seems like it would be more relevant for Furcadia than for here. Given the user-created content, you'd probably need permission from the people who created the room - assuming they didn't use someone else's content without permission. GreenReaper 14:43, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, since it would be a screenshot of a copyrighted game, it would also not qualify as fair use because it wouldn't be illustrating the game (instead, it would be illustrating eroticism in the furry fandom), besides free alternatives being available. -kotra 00:02, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Furcadia

message: I think we need some explaination of why Furries redirects to here.  "Furry fandom" is not a really common term; people are going to assume an editorial bias. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Claytonian (talk • contribs).
:As it says in the lede, "members of this subculture are sometimes known as furry fans, furries, or simply furs." The redirect is there because it is the common usage of the term, and because people coming here are likely to get a good understanding of what a furry fan is by reading this article. As far as I know, encyclopedias tend to use the more "official" definition, even if a slang term is in common usage. GreenReaper 00:43, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
