Missing links for download


Seems like none of the links still refers to an option for downloading the film. Edit: Oh, i've found a link at imdb-Forums: http://cs.nmu.edu/~entropy/misc/fanimatrix/ Is it okay to put it in the article? --Znero 23:48, 6 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:The Fanimatrix (Title).jpg edit

 

Image:The Fanimatrix (Title).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced claims edit

A 2006 edit from an anonymous Australian IP added a number of unsourced claims, including a claimed web host, that had stayed in the article to the present day. All the reporting (contemporaneous and current) suggests that BitTorrent was the original distribution mechanism. It's possible that the server that hosted the original tracker was provided by ihug, but I can't find any sources that confirm this. —Jonathan Chang 19:24, 12 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Jonathan Chang, the IP contributor does mention BitTorrent in the edits, so it suggests they agree with you that it was the original distribution method. There might be a history of the web host on the Internet Archives that could source the claim, and it sound like other sources exist for the BitTorrent history, but I would forget about who hosted the tracker because I'm not sure how much it matters which servers host which trackers. These are trivial behind the scenes technical details and the list goes on endlessly about which trackers go where. Huggums537 (talk) 22:25, 12 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
