Opencooper ( talk) 00:16, 5 January 2016 (UTC) External links modified (See WP:A&M/ORS for a non-exhaustive list of reliable sources in anime and manga) Hope that helps. Of course I'm sure there are other sources available such as Anime News Network so let me know if you have trouble finding any. Jacob Grady did an interview with The Japan Times that talks about their transition a little, so that source might be usable.
However do note that Wikipedia has a verifiability policy, meaning that you information likely to be controversial (such as saying a company was engaging in illegal activity) needs a citation from a reliable source. I encourage you to be bold and make the appropriate changes. You could add that it was an aggregator of " scanlated" works to the history section.
#DELETING MY FAKKU ACCOUNT UPDATE#
VeryAngrySlav ( talk) 22:31, 4 January 2016 (UTC) VeryAngrySlav: The lead mentions "At its core, Fakku is an aggregator that provides users with adult manga and doujinshi from Japan." That part must have been before the deal with Wanimagazine since it only mentions it as an aggregator, so the article could use an update in general. This article reads more like a PR piece, as it completely ignores that it until the end of last year operated as an illegal scanslations aggregator, basically hosting unauthorized translations of pirated works. I'm fairly new here, so pardon me, if I made an error and I don't quite feel confident enough yet to edit an article to adhere to wikipedia guidelines. ScaledPaper ( talk) 14:51, 7 December 2011 (UTC) Article ignores the question of legality and hosting unauthorized translations Maybe Fakku is not that notable or it's because of a possible uncertain legal status: Copyright owners have yet to take action against aggregator websites which the Fakku WP lists as its core feature ("At its core FAKKU is an aggregator that provides users with adult manga and doujinshi from Japan."). Though, I find it strange that there're no mentions of a seemingly popular Fakku website in reliable sources because sometimes newspapers and magazines (and printed Anime magazines actually exist) do write about niche subjects - and Japanese manga porn hentai is somehow exotic. Put in context together with Fakku appearances on those Anime fairs, I don't know how much more you can do to gain notability in that subculture. Concerning the notability: A quick Google search for "hentai" lists Fakku on 6th place for me, which tells me not much besides it has somehow gained a kind of popularity. That sounds like an argument for the deletion of this entry. A great majority of "sources" are from the website itself. For example the first source is simply a web traffic tracker. In addition to the sources not being reliable, the quality and detail of the coverage is not indepth. The few third party sources that do mention Fakku have some form of association with the site (Danny Choo and Kitty Media cannot be considered objective as they have partnered with the site). There are not many, if any, sources that cover Fakku heavily. 70.24.248.23 ( talk) 08:41, 2 December 2011 (UTC) I would say, transwiki this to the Fakku Wikia site. has a website, and it exist as a division of a company we have an article on Media Blasters. ScaledPaper ( talk) 12:11, 24 November 2011 (UTC) There's a third party blog post on it as well. Where are the sources for some of those impressive sounding statements? For example: Is the statement "FAKKU is the largest English speaking hentai website in the world." a result of an analysis of the Quantcast data? And how is a blog post of "Fakku" itself a reliable source about some deal with a "Kitty Media" company? And the "Recognition" chapter has no sources.
