Revision as of 07:14, 20 January 2007

The article is pushing the limits between fact and opinion - it isn't a question of the truth. I don't think the last two paragraphs are really necessary - perhaps a reference to some controversy but there isn't any need to have a a dedicated paragraph refuting all the claims of plagiarism on this type of pedia. The actual Serebii.net website should be responsible for maintaining its own integrity not other party's sites such as Bulbapedia which being within the public domain could spark more controversy.

There is no "opinion" here, everything on this article is nothing but fact and speculation. Although speculation is not necessarily truth, you'ld only have to click "Random Page" on Wikipedia to find some. From speculation you will eventually arrive at the truth anyway. This article does not attack Serebii.net and is not written biasedly.

Just a quick request to people posting messages on this page. Please use the timestamp button (Second from the right) with your message, so we know who you are and when you posted. This page, as well as Serebii (person) are likely to end up controversial (Anything to do with Joe tends to), so it'll just help if/when any conflicts erupt.--Archaic 10:19, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

There is no "opinion" there at present. There is factual information on Joe and thievery ; he admits that he stole until 2002, and claim that anything that happened afterward was the result of unscrupulous fans passing him the info along.

Very sorry about the timestamp thing, my laptop honestly fails to type tildes half of the time. I end up having to copy paste from somewhere. Do'h. *Copys* - Ferret 10:31, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

sorry...

I originally posted the first comment which was before a lot of the article had been changed so it appears to be more factual at the moment so that's what I was hoping for originally. - --Ainohuyuah 12:16, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)


Images

"If this is on serebii.net, it was stolen" embedded in them, in addition to images created by hand by noted fansite webmaster Meowth346, are known to still be on the site.

Any links? ;d --Jshadias 04:38, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I'll send you a PM on BMGf with one of the stolen ones. It's not one of the ones with that message embedded, but it does have an embedded message showing that it's been stolen from someone. --Archaic 11:00, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Protection of the page

Is there any reason the page has been protected for several months? If not, it should be unprotected.User142 07:50, 12 December 2005 (CST)

Recent hacking?

Has anyone bothered to mention the recent SPP/SPPf hacking? I'm suprised no-one's done it... Samurai 004 09:55, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Is this supposed to follow WP:NPOV?

"Serebii, the owner, claims that he has not personally stolen anything since mid-2002." <- The italics is definitely not NPOV.
"Serebii eventually accepts to do so in the vast majority of cases." <- Bad grammar.
"Serebii.net has occasionally been the center of controversy, as its webmaster has faced accusations of theft in the past.
