Wikipedia!
Something that's been bothering me lately is: Why is there no Wikipedia article for Flash Flash Revolution? Anybody who is knowledgeable about FFR can create one can't they?

Re: Wikipedia!
It has been done many many times but im not sure what happens to them.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Flash Flash Revolution
Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2006 December 15 Basically, FFR isn't notable enough. |
Re: Wikipedia!
Even though other related articles are more notable, with fewer people going to them, or the websites they're about.

Re: Wikipedia!
I started on FFR, and have much of my beginnings to thank for it.
But now where I play is in the arcade. My friends, also arcade-goers, highly dislike FFR, because of zerged charts (High quantity, low quality), poor score systems, and mediocre sync. For higher-end players, these things make Stepmania vastly superior. FFR will forever be known as "DDR on keyboard", even to the most basic of novices. I personally don't believe it's big enough to deserve its own page, in the grand scheme of things. Edit: And FFR has less players than the 1.6mil the front page shows. Many of those are mutliple accounts belonging to one person, or the more common situation, someone who joined and quit, or barely plays at all. The actual number of players would be significantly lower, I'd think. |
Re: Wikipedia!
Basically, there was a butthurt guy we banned from the site who constantly started motions to get our wikipedia page removed. Somehow he was always successful.
It doesn't really matter anyway. |

The real thing is that a certain admin over there is permabanned here and he is butthurt, so he is strictly enforcing rules that shouldn't be and bending others to his whim. Quote:

But that said, Wikipedia is a warground between those who believe information should be inclusive and others who believe it should be exclusive. No matter how valid a piece of information is, there will always be some douchebag out there arguing that the information doesn't deserve to be recorded. It may be clear that I'm the type who thinks information should be inclusive, but I think that's just a load of ****. |
Re: Wikipedia!
I think the "outside source" aspect of the notability problem is that they want us to be linking to -not FFR- as where we are sourcing some/most of our info from.

Devonin, if you don't buy the butthurt admin story, talk to Chardish or LD. They might not use the word "butthurt" to describe him, but they'll tell you the very same thing: it's deleted more because of an admin with an axe to grind than due to lack of notability. |
Re: Wikipedia!
This notability thing is retarded. It exists, people actually spend hours trying to achieve something in it, I think that should be enough to make an article about it.
Also, I don't think it should be necessary to use information from 3rd party sources, since 3rd party sources also get information directly from the site somehow... Why can't wikipedia become the "first" 3rd party source? |
Re: Wikipedia!
Let's get together a bunch of people who have been at FFR forever to write a bunch of history and facts about FFR and put it on some notable site so we can have a Wikipedia article. :-|
