Hispachan, Krautchan, and Wizardchan do not exist anymore, but their entries are written as if they still do. ie: "The site also features a popular English language board, /int/, which is also the origin of the Polandball internet phenomenon. In March 21, 2018 the imageboard was shut down." - Can these be changed to use the past tense? As is they are factually incorrect. -- Stackguy ( talk) 14:50, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
I'm not sure if this is relevant to the Wikipedia, but the end of Krautchan and the beginning of Kohlchan as successor was not that simple as it looks in the article. We were looking for a new home and in this process we considered many possible successor boards. For example, the /kc/ sub-board on 8chan. Although Kohlchan was founded very quickly, a huge amount of us (maybe even the majority) ended up on the german imageboard Ernstchan which was used in the past as an alternative when KC was temporary offline. The fact that EC also had an english /int/ sub-board helped a lot with the immigration since our international community is very important to us.
After a while it became obvious that a big part of our KC community had huge political and philosophical differences with the administration of EC which led to many bans and a large shitstorm that took place on /int/. At the end of it, the admins of EC took the site offline and we all went to Kohlchan. I'm not adding this without feedback by other people since I'm not sure if this type of internal drama is relevant and imageboards have the tendency to not provide much source for these type of claims. 95.222.25.219 ( talk) 20:19, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
It's because of it's users being more focused on political incorrectness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Takeshi Ishii ( talk • contribs) 10:09, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
I tried a couple times only to have some guy keep removing my edits. tumblr and Pinterest are not imageboards, proper examples would be 7chan, 420chan etc Dollsyndrome ( talk) 19:36, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
Why is an entry for soyjak.party not allowed? It is one of the most active English speaking imageboards and is widely known throughout imageboard circles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8308:219:D00:F736:7FB8:1BC:F82F ( talk) 13:48, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
This is absurd. The latest edit had several trustworthy sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8308:219:D00:F736:7FB8:1BC:F82F ( talk) 22:11, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
