Talk:Fark/Archive 5

=Totalfark archive= Surprisingly little discussion in here..

I think the page needs an image, maybe the squirrel or a domokun?...

Or a image of Drew. Just don't submit a link to it from Fark! Check the popbitch entry for when that happens! Silveralex 17:02, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

When was that? Too much history in that article to look through... --Shogun 06:39, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

farker.net
That external link looks really close to spam. Nearly all of the links on that site can be found from fark.com. Would anyone object to deleting it? --BWD 14:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

=Ultrafark archive= I'd say that the web page the article is about contains pretty much all the information that would be needed to confirm the information present. Granted, there's no link to an article about Ultrafark, so it might be argued that the page constitutes original research, but that seems like an incredibly fine point to press on.

Ultrafark doesn't exist; this is entirely made up original research. User:Electricaltape 7:41 10 August 2006

ultrafark.com is indeed a real site...
www.ultrafark.com is indeed a real site.

has enough info to make this wiki entry at least a stub. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.71.134.151 (talk) 22:54, 1 April 2007 (UTC).

This needs to be updated
Fark.com has implemented Ultrafark emails for subscribers of 6 months or more. http://www.fark.com/farq/ufemails.shtml#UltraFark_Email_Questions Pullarius1 (talk) 04:01, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

link unavailable
After visiting the website Fark.com just now I noticed that is was unavailable and therefore changed the status. WJPMProductions (talk) 12:17, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Title
Since the entire article uses the name Fark (except for the lead sentence), we should probably move the page to Fark (not Fark.com). I think that's generally the name people use. —Noisalt (talk) 01:43, 23 September 2009 (UTC)


 * It really doesn't matter to me whether the article is called Fark or Fark.com. I think the reason it's named the latter is because it always was since the beginning. But in looking at the names of several other articles about websites, such as Fail Blog, Digg, and Slashdot, the TLD is not included in the article's title; so perhaps it makes sense to follow that logic.

SITE DOWN
Fark is currently down 88.213.49.107 (talk) 16:14, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but you'll get over it. Fark status page. There is no need to alter an article every time something as minor as an temporary outage occurs, however. -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  17:23, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I respectfully disagree. I did wait three hours to be sure it was not a temporary drop-out. And does no harm as it's a fairly trivial job to change the status. 88.213.49.107 (talk) 03:33, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The template instructions have been clarified on this issue: template:infobox website -- &#124;  Uncle Milty  &#124;  talk  &#124;  13:02, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Fark.ru
I removed the addition of "Russian" to the languages option in the infobox (see edit), because it's not really accurate to describe it that way. As far as I can tell, FARK.ru is an independent site, run by someone in Russia and not by Drew Curtis, so it's not a Russian-language version of FARK.com in that sense. A translation of FARK.ru can be seen here. I'm sure there's a connection, since the two sites are very similar, but I am unable to find a source that meets Wikipedia's reliable source requirements. For now, I've added a link to FARK.ru in the external links section. WTF? (talk) 18:16, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Fark community
It might be worth keeping an eye on this thread and story, to see if anything worthwhile develops in the media. Right now, it's just a thread, so it's not exactly notable enough. But things could theoretically change at some point. WTF? (talk) 19:50, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

why all the past tense?
As far as I know, fark is still up and running, so why all the past tense unless its purpose is to keep people from going there by pretending fark is dead? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.177.63.127 (talk) 23:27, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
