i hardly ever come to this thread, but i just dropped by.

Doraburi: your comic strips are absolutely hilarious. this one almost made me cough up a liver laughing.

the person with the ultimate say here is Ruroshin, but i'm interested in what other consistent contributors (like groink) have to say because i feel you've made some excellent points.

(*still laughing at your tokyo love story one*)

Just wondering: If I just wanted to add one tiny detail, is there someone I can contact (who already has an account) to add this extra line of information please? Thanks!

Can one of the Dramawiki administrator go and ask WikiRoll (part of Crunchyroll) to stop copying their content from DramaWiki?! As an editor, I don't want the efforts of all the DramaWiki editors go into generating revenue/traffic for the lazyass CrunchyRoll. If I am editing drama articles for money, I wouldn't be helping out dramawiki in the first place. So, please, somebody go and kick their ass for the rest of us, their admin should at least have the courtesy to advise new editors not to copy directly from dramaWiki.

Also they set a bad example for other websites in the future in terms of ripping off of dramaWiki. I admit that there might be some ignorant editors who might have copied stuff off of other websites into DramaWiki but overall, DramaWiki is a legitimate group effort to organize drama information through numerous revisions from lots of editors. What crunchyRoll did (copying things word for word, exact format), despite giving credit to Dramawiki on their website, is not fair to all the editors in the dramaWiki community.

Would it be possible to add a disclaimer/note to the DramaWiki sign in / sign up page pointing to this thread or giving instructions on how to make an account.

There's no notation there and I was rather confused as to why it wasn't giving me a signup box (I'd been looking to add a page for an actress in a new series who hasn't yet had one made yet and about whom I know a bit )

It was only after several minutes of confustion that I thought to check the d-addicts forums.

I'd go to Crunchyroll and edit their wiki!!!!! If someone there gives you sh*t, tell them that DramaWiki does not have a relationship with Crunchyroll regarding exchange of information. Matter of fact, tell fricking Shinji to spend some of his 4+ million dollars and hire someone to write "original" information.

I don' think anyone there will listen until you stir up some trouble. That's my approach!

Here's the reply I got after bringing up the issue to the moderators over at CrunchyRoll:

I will speak to the team regarding putting a warning for our users. Is there an email address that we can reach out at?

The reply was sent out by one of the moderators there, named Booi. So Groink, or any other admins of DramaWiki, maybe someone can pm me your email address? So I can message it to Booi, or perhaps you can contact Booi directly...?

I don't know if you guys feel the same, but I felt better after I got a reply from them.

I was having trouble with it this morning (couldn't even access the DA, actually), but it seems to be working now.

I was a bit irritated searching the wiki to find out a big ad for Scientology (which isn't even tagged as an advertisement) right smack at the top of the page.

I don't think quite frankly that an organization whose aim it is to generate money on the back of their members while manipulating their minds has any place on a jdorama site. Having said that I would have been just as bothered had it been an ad for ANY other sect (or even religion).

I don't know if d-addicts can control who is advertising, but I would appreciate it if you could take some action.
Thank you

Hi there, is there any way to use references or footnotes? Something like this or this.

Thanks
