Yeah, some *** wikipedia admin had a grudge and erased FFR from existence on Wikipedia saying that it wasn't noteworthy or that it didn't cite its sources or some such malarky. This includes the FFR disambiguation page, but I guess being the most popular usage of "FFR" means nothing if you don't have external sources that can prove that it exists, even though it's quite obvious to anyone with a brain that it does. The worst part: they wouldn't even let FFR be listed on the article with lists of DDR clones, even though things such as pydance, text text revolution, and dance with intensity were named.

This explains a lot.

I like the way you think,

try searching Dance Dance Revolution, and see what comes up.

Also, It would be nice for people to know what FFR is for a school prject, I know I use Wikipedia for all mine.

Someone obviously added it after the admin stopped watching the DDR article. I tell you, for a good while I kept trying to get it on there and it just wouldn't happen. Since it's on there now, the person blocking us before must have stopped caring.

Also note: if you try to get on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_Flash_Revolution it redirects to the article of a list of dance video games.

Good work to whoever made good timing on the re-adding. It was literally impossible for us to keep it up before. Those assholes figured that if the article was deleted it didn't deserve mention ANYWHERE on wikipedia, even if the article was unjustly deleted.

And even with the good work, there's still more to be done. We still have no article, and I doubt we could squeak a full article under their radar. So basically we need to get a bunch of external sources to cite just to prove that FFR exists.

There's tons of guidelines and other junk... I would know, as I'm an admin on Wikipedia.

I've tried getting it back on there... but until we meet the strict guidelines, it's just gonna be nuked from the site again...

I find it strange that they would remove valid information from the site just because we can't cite a source proving that we exist. There are numerous other articles that remain despite having no source citing their existence.

Yeah I know


Why would they not want our article up but have the name of the website up? I dont know, But unlike other onessuch as PyDance, you can just click on it and add an article, but when you click on Flash Flash Revolution...
