Hispachan, Krautchan, and Wizardchan do not exist anymore, but their entries are written as if they still do. ie: "The site also features a popular English language board, /int/, which is also the origin of the Polandball internet phenomenon. In March 21, 2018 the imageboard was shut down." - Can these be changed to use the past tense? As is they are factually incorrect. -- Stackguy ( talk) 14:50, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
I tried a couple times only to have some guy keep removing my edits. tumblr and Pinterest are not imageboards, proper examples would be 7chan, 420chan etc Dollsyndrome ( talk) 19:36, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
Why is an entry for soyjak.party not allowed? It is one of the most active English speaking imageboards and is widely known throughout imageboard circles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8308:219:D00:F736:7FB8:1BC:F82F ( talk) 13:48, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
This is absurd. The latest edit had several trustworthy sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8308:219:D00:F736:7FB8:1BC:F82F ( talk) 22:11, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
websites like danbooru or e621, and the kind this article is about like 4chan, are both referred to as 'imageboards,' but this is only about the latter. (theyre fairly different kinds of website though; boorus are image galleries with tags that can be edited (kind of like a wiki actually), chans are... the ones this wikipedia article is about.) Pokémon and pornography even links to this article when mentioning boorus 'like Gelbooru or e621' 2A00:23C5:4080:7C01:EC72:F9FB:C0D:DF0F ( talk) 11:59, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
I added the section "Lainchan" using the FAQ of that website as the source, but it was swiftly removed for the reason of not having a source outside of itself. However, the "Futaba Channel" section also only uses Futaba Channel's "Frequently Asked Questions" page as the source and has not been removed. For this reason, I am asking for the "Lainchan" section to be restored. Kawaiidumbassery ( talk) 02:12, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
