This is GFDL and CC-BY-2.5 co-licensed, according to GreenReaper, the dude who wrote the previous featured article on the Further Confusion convention. -- Zanimum 14:31, 4 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Is it just me ...

[edit]

or does this article read like spam? --SVTCobra 14:52, 4 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

I agree. And I am still baffled as to what a "furry" is. No idea. I'll have to check out some of the links I suppose. Jcart1534 15:06, 4 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I would not exactly say "spam", but at least very hard to understand. It is copied verbatim from the source, an article in a furry Wiki. There, people understand the language, but here, that cannot be assumed. Not everybody knows what "furries" are, or what "Anthrocon" is. I think this article needs a re-location to {{develop}}. --Florian Prischl 16:24, 4 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
Zanimum, I added the "develop" tag as per discussions. Could you please explain further what a furry is, and Anthrocon? I don't think the reader will automatically know what these things are (we didn't). Just a bit of background/explanation would do. Cheers, Jcart1534 17:02, 4 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
Added a description. I thought via the whole furor over the last furry article a few months back (which became a FA), and the whole CSI "furries are all freaky kinks" episode (which as far as I know is 99.5% wrong) that everyone had at least heard of them. -- Zanimum 15:41, 6 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I'm sorry, Zanimum, but I had missed the furor with the original article (was before my time here). I just went and read the first article (FA). I'm going to link the FA as "Related news". And I missed that CSI episode! Jcart1534 19:59, 6 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
