I'll take a look over the next couple of days or so. And make notes in the table below as they come up. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 22:01, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I tried my hardest and fleshed out some of the arguments in the case. I don't know how familiar you are with Wikipedia articles about lawsuits but an appeal decision is usually written and delivered weeks after the arguments are heard. Finding a transcript of the actual arguments is near impossible and we are usually left with whatever the judge decided to include in their decision.
 * Moreover, the issues in a legal dispute are seldom equal, especially when you're focusing in on an appeal court ruling. I reviewed every single reliable secondary source I could find, and not a single one even mentions the Trademark issue. (This is typical, because a lot of legal disputes involve a "kitchen sink" or "machine gun" approach where you bring up every issue possible, knowing that the main issue is something else.) The article does cover the main copyright issues -- the main reason the case is notable, as defined by the sources. If you double check you'll find that my description of the secondary sources is accurate.
 * The best I could do was to give a more detailed summary of the appeal court's analysis. The ruling isn't too long and it would be easy to double check if I missed anything of note. Jorahm (talk) 23:19, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. Congratulations on the GA! — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 05:03, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
