From YKTTW Working Title: VoldeMart

Nate The Great: Does Fox Books really qualify? The reason people don't like it is because they're driving other companies out of business, but that's true of any franchise business. "Successful" does not equal "evil," after all.


Chupa Cabo: That one may be a little iffy, but I'm not really familiar enough with the movie to be certain. Feel free to Wiki Magic it into oblivion if it's not a good example. If we're really lucky, somebody else will put it back and then we can argue about it. :)


MCE: Surely that title could have been one word, for example Prey, okay that's two examples but the point remains. I'll be easy enough to set up a new page, copy over the content and then set up a redirect on the old page. If it's okay I'll leave it for a few days before I begin to make the changes myself.

Micah: The wiki doesn't care about capitalization: Voldemart and VoldeMart both go to the same page. If you try to set up a redirect from one to the other things will get very confused.

ChupaCabo: Now that you mention it, I probably should have originally submitted it as VoldeMart. Whoops.

MCE: fair enough, although there is a way to change the original, just as those that are listed as p titles are often cut listed and replace by those with the appropriate title, might be worth looking into to, but I leave that to the original author.


Master Hand: I don't think we should list real companies. It's too subjective, for one, and it comes across as a Take That!. I'm taking the Real Life examples out until I get a reason why we really need these.

MCE maybe still a subjective label on the real life section or have trooper tales for them?
