[edit] Structure lists

Please structure the bulleted list (Futaba has a culture of its own, including), it's confusing as it is.

I propose dumping most entries except "Toshiaki" & "OS-tans" and to simply place a link to some of the extensive neta collection pages that can be found on "The Society for the Study of Modern Image Board Culture", the reason being that while some entries are noticeable ("Waha"), others are not ("Sadako") but arguing about what should be included and what not is a very otiose task as there are literally hundreds to choose from (which more or less the same reason why most meme entries have been dumped from the 4chan article). I believe it is best to only explicitly mention the entities that entirely or almost entirely originated on Futaba Channel. 84.137.4.52 11:07, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Of course, the "Nijiura" entry should also stay. 84.137.4.52 11:08, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Just a note, the grammar used on the page is pretty un-encyclopedic, so I fixed the grammar in the Concept paragraph, I'll start working on the others Echoghost 16:24, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gaijin Yonkamo

The fad of the stock reactions as expressed by an audience of IGN editors originated from an article parodying the Matrix trilogy. The whole set has the first picture of them reacting wildly to the original Matrix, showing little emotion to Matrix Reloaded, and finally, showing an empty theater with Matrix Revolutions.

That's not where it originally came from - it originated on Futaba in the vertical four-panel format, which was brought over to other imageboards and edited there.

Also, the only thing that was invented by the Toshiaki was "the use of this specific set of images": the idea of "noun1 -> noun2 -> noun1.change -> noun2.change" cannot be attributed to any one group of people. It's just this set of images that was used first by the toshiaki

[edit] Number of Boards

Though some edits have been made to this article over the last six months, much of this article is not up-to-date. The last paragraph talked of 4chan only having less than 15 boards, though it now has about 34 boards, and that has now been changed by me. Seeing as we are now more than halfway through 2006, perhaps a list of any notable events that have happened so far during 2006 should be added to the history. New and popular characters, fads, and memes could be added too. I would do this myself, but unfortunately I don't know a word of Japanese. Also, to make this article not appear so bland, a screenshot of a board, the frontpage of 2chan.net, and a website infobox like on the 4chan page should be added. --(Steampowered 03:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC))
