message: :Image:Stage6.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Stage 66

message: Object to the proposed deletion. This article has various sources and is fairly well written. It asserts notability not only because of its use of the DivX video codec, which is very well know and prolific across the internet as a method of sharing video (specifically over bit torrent) but also because of its acceptance of high resolution video up to 2GB in size. The reason given for deletion, "Unremarkable website", does not seem to apply hear. Think outside the box 17:44, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks like the prod was removed. We'll keep the tags for now. I'll try to add additional citations as the current links seem to be dead. Think outside the box 12:35, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Following issues about this articles notability, I've rewritten most of it and added history, usage and technical sections, fully referenced with sources. Think outside the box 11:46, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Thankfully it wasn't deleted, but it really makes me mad that someone could so easily and ignorantly raise a "notability" concern.  I could understand it if this was 2006, but in January 2008? - when the site has a fairly substantial community and increasing number of videos?  Did the person who proposed this run a Google search and see there were 2,860,000 hits?  Isn't this standard practice before jumping the gun and slapping the page with that huge ugly "Page being considered for deletion" boilerplate?  FranksValli (talk) 22:58, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Shut Down 

message: OK because there's a lot of stupid speculation going around on Jeff McDownloader and friends' blog, and because the actual announcement on the stage6 page is only periodically visible what with the site up and down every 5 minutes for the last couple of days, here are a few links from (reasonably) reputable sources. There's some new info there, but it's generally just backup information for when the stage6 page is no longer visible.

message: Now that the Stage6 site is reduced to its frontpage, somebody will have to dig up new hyperlinks for the references, most of which sadly lead to the now deleted pages.~~MaxGrin (talk) 23:10, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stage6 is gone, so are the references 

message: On April Davis Freeberg reported on his blog that a Stage6 alternative/clone would be launched on May 6 and that this new site would be called Vreel.http://seekingalpha.com/article/74023-divx-stage6-part-deux
For its part the Vreel website confirms that the launch date of May 6 and also confirms that they will use the DivX codec & webplayer. http://www.vreel.net/qa.html
I hope it is not another rumour. What do you people think? ⇨ EconomistBR ⇦ Talk 09:05, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There's no announcement about any sort of deal on the DivX page and considering the fact that the Vreel page looks as commercial as the teenager homepages from late 90ies, I wouldn't expect much. Other than that, I'd really expect something like this to have more press coverage. I'm rather sceptical; it would be cool though if it would turn out to be something similar to Stage6 in regards of quality and quantity.~~MaxGrin (talk) 09:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
