This formal request, by the way, includes use of our work and our editors' work through the wayback machine. That information was donated to the old Ranch Story wiki for use by Ranch Story only, regardless of how it was preserved. The main person you are taking the work of is an editor who goes by Celery, who is actively rebuilding our Animal Parade section and they originally put that information into the old wiki through their own hard work. I don't know how to express this beyond pointing out this detail of who the actual contributor is, because it takes work to get this information and to organize this information. These are real people taking time to do things for the community. I'll be sure to include this in the request so that there's no more questions about it. Both past, and present (as well as future), we will refrain from using Ranch Story's content.. paraphrased, quoted, referenced, etc. Only contained written consent (if it ever came to that), would be accepted, which would be properly referenced and made clear it was taken with permission, if that is agreeable. I find this agreeable, Nixerix. Because of the issues we’ve had with users of wikia going around our original request, we would like to state that without written consent none of our information should be used outside of Ranch Story. Again, thank you for working with us. Our primary goal is to make sure our editors’ work is respected and I appreciate your efforts towards this goal as well.
