Need corrected writeup for FenCon IV
I moved it to the "past" section but it really needs to be corrected for last-minute changes that happened at the convention. This cannot happen until such corrections occur in either the official web sites or, preferably, secondary sources. No verifiable source = no wikipedia edit. 76.186.105.180 02:51, 24 September 2007 (UTC)


 * The official website has been updated and the edits to the FenCon IV section are in accordance with this new information. - Dravecky 03:52, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Get the red out?
There are several guests whose names show up in red. It's probably time to determine if these people meet Wiki notability requirements and if they do not, de-wikilink them. If they do, create at least stubs that will pass WP:AFD. I have de-wikilinked two guests from next year's event, it would be nice if they could be turned into blue-links.

As a general rule, if the name is not linked from anywhere else in Wikipedia, it's a clue that it's going to be harder to establish notability. It doesn't always turn out that way but it's a good rule of thumb. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  21:30, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

COI
It has come to my attention that a contributor to this page is on the Fencon ConCom. I would encourage any editor with a close connection to Fencon to read Conflict of interest to avoid appearances of bias when editing this article. It's one of the most important guidelines we have as an encyclopedia. UrbanTerrorist (talk) 03:20, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Admiral Judith Ward
And it should be noted that Judith's family was, and is, very grateful to FenCon for their recognition of the Admiral's service to Fandom. - Sara Cooper, Daughter.
