[edit] Furshampoo
The only thing this article gets right is that Fursuits should be washed by hand, and not be put in a washing machine. Everything else is pure nonsense. As the google test obviously shows, there is no such thing as "Furshampoo", and I'm not sure if the article is just an act of trolling.. --Conti|✉ 13:16, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep I personally use this. I'm sorry that you were looking to use it personally and were unable to find it.
- I don't know why you can't find it. Here are links (the first proves furry community relations and the others are where to find and buy it): [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] It originated in France so it may use a French name. Chunitaku 14:32, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

- I suspect that this is a sockpuppet of Chunitaku. He came back after a week absence to do a few minor edits and to vote here. He has also voted on another VfD on which Chunitaku voted. And looking at their contributions, they never edited at the same time, although they edited at the same day when they both voted on the VfDs. --Conti|✉ 22:18, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
- He also accused me of stalking when I listed his userpage at redirects for deletion, something that is patently untrue. It is becoming increasingly difficult to assume good faith with this user. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 22:48, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
I humbly ask that ContiE take the following into consideration....
Then (1) Android79 (text search: 01DTALKEMAIL), (2) Mysekurity, (3) Harmil, (4) Dcarrano, (5) Almafeta are all one person's sockpuppets. I have numbered them to make it easier to type.

I stopped at the end of the last 4 days. I hope you will listen to me, Conti E. JimRaynor 15:28, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- As for my part in the accusation, I've only ever heard of Android79 around here, and that's because we're both part of WP:PAC. Accusing the rest of being sockuppets because you found they had sometimes voted in acordance with Android79 is really reaching... this silliness should stop now. Almafeta 16:58, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Voting on the same VfD as another person does not make me suspicious yet. It only did in combination with the other points I said, which you for some reason just ignored. Oh, and thanks to suddenly vote the opposite of every VfD I voted in. --Conti|✉ 18:01, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
- I guess I shouldn't feed the trolls, but here's evidence to the contrary: vote opposite Mysekurity and Harmil, vote opposite Almafeta, vote opposite Dcarrano, vote opposite Etacar11. If I'm a sockpuppet, I'm not a very good one. Please stop with the silly accusations. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 18:22, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not notable, likely hoax. AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 17:02, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete goonn, possible hoax -Harmil 18:34, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as hoax. Fur Expert 18:37, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as hoax. Sorry sockpuppet, I'm voting against you on this. -mysekurity 18:47, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete anything and everything to do with furries! SchmuckyTheCat 22:20, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I couldn't resist voting with a sockpuppet. Still needs to be strangled slowly and publicly, however. As for my reasoning: WP:NOT a furball. -Splash 22:43, 10 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, hoax. Dcarrano 23:23, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete nn at best, probably hoax. --Etacar11 02:23, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Keep only because in trying to figure out if it's real or not, I discovered a [http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php/Furshampoo page about it here]. I just think that somewhere wikipedia should dispell the statements on that other wiki. But if not, then let's delete our furry article, too, and send everyone to that site for [http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php/Furry their furry article]. Well, that's my only reasoning. I think someone should prove it a hoax if it is instead of speculating or I'll be wondering forever. SnowConeYellow 14:00, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- As I wrote on Talk:Furry fandom, encyclopedia dramatica can't be taken seriously, so this is more or less the proof that the article is a hoax. Which means that User:Chunitaku is nothing more than bored troll. --Conti|✉ 16:38, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not verified, evidence of trolling from ED. Almafeta 21:52, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
- Merge with fursuit, shampoo, or Care of living organisms. The person who started this page for deletion said, "The only thing this article gets right is that Fursuits should be washed by hand, and not be put in a washing machine." I don't know how I should vote on this since am unknowledable on the subject. According to fursuit, the suits sound handmade from living ingredients (once living) so , well what does everyone clean their fursuit with? Drycleaning won't work, too? Handwash? Shampoo or soap or another cleaner? Are fursuits colorfast? ChoobWriter 14:24, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Just for your illumination, fursuits aren't made with once-living ingredients. They're made with synthetic fur, or rarely, latex or fabric. Almafeta 17:00, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Fursuits can be washed or cleaned in a variety of ways, but there is no special "Furshampoo". Contrary to popular belief, it's not always impossible to put fursuits into a washing machine; if you use a low temperature and put it on the "wool" setting, you should be OK most of the time, even though hand-washing is still better, of course. Laundry detergents or shampoo (no matter whether human or pet shampoo) should probably not be used, but Woollite can be; additionally, many people will use Febreze on their fursuits (although that is only a short-term solution when you can't wash a suit right away, of course). In any case, you should NEVER put a fursuit into a dryer, as the heat will damage the fur fibers; instead, gently wring it out and then hang it and let it dry. Hope this helps, in case you ever want to get a fursuit. ^_~ Oh, and BTW, as far as colour fastness is concerned, that really depends on the fur used. Regular fur that's bought from a store is probably safe in this regard, but if you dye yourself or use airbrush to put accents on the suit, then you probably shouldn't count on it. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 22:33, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete extremely non-notable at best, likely a hoax. carmeld1 20:49, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete - there is no such thing as "Furshampoo", unless you're referring to pet shampoo that you can buy in pet stores (but which shouldn't be used on artificial fur). This is a hoax. -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 22:29, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete - Nonsense, no hits on Google for Furshampoo. The closest I could find is Plush Cleaner, like Bubble Gund -- RainR 23:15, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
- Delete - zero Google hits is a pretty strong case for non-notablity, even if it weren't a hoax to begin with. Loganberry (Talk) 22:54, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
