[WikiEN-l] Yet another legal threat

In this thread: http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=7820 somebody allegedly associated with The American Mutoscope and Biograph Company is threatening to sue Wikipedia over his company being "done wrong". early days of motion pictures, from the 1890s through the 1920s, but faded out and went completely out of business by the 1930s. Somebody with no apparent true connection with the original company went into business in the 1990s under that name (long after all of the original company's copyrights and trademarks had lapsed into the public domain), and is making questionable claims at being the legitimate continuer of the original company's tradition, along with some other wacky claims such as saying they have purchased land on the Moon on which they soon will be filming movies. Of course, Wikipedia is "evil" because it fails to take all of this guy's claims at face value, and persists in having an article about the classic original company (which is legitimately notable in the early history of the movie industry) with only a brief paragraph noting the existence of an unrelated new company of the same name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Mutoscope_and_Biograph_Company Naturally, this guy's claims and whines are getting a favorable reception over on Wikipedia Review, where they see no anti-Wikipedia rant they don't like. -- == Dan == Dan's Mail Format Site: http://mailformat.dan.info/ Dan's Web Tips: http://webtips.dan.info/ Dan's Domain Site: http://domains.dan.info/
