Title: We're mentioned in a Wikipedia article

QuoteOn September 17, 2007, Nintendo of America closed its official forums, the NSider Forums, indefinitely due to a major overhaul of their site; [...] In the meantime, Nintendo encouraged fans to run their own forums. In response to this, some members of the NSider forums created a couple of online communities. The most notable 'replacement' communities are NSider2, created two days after the closure and arguably the largest Nintendo based community on the web, and another one, formed the same day of the closure, which dissolved into what is now called NSFCD[8][9].

[spoiler=with the extra sentence]On September 17, 2007, Nintendo of America closed its official forums, the NSider Forums, indefinitely due to a major overhaul of their site; for months prior, cutbacks in Nintendo of America's online department led to the trimming back of NSider's chat hours and the replacement of their annual Camp Hyrule event — held during August — with a sweepstakes. In the meantime, Nintendo encouraged fans to run their own forums. In response to this, some members of the NSider forums created a couple of online communities. The most notable 'replacement' communities are NSider2, created two days after the closure and arguably the largest Nintendo based community on the web, and another one, formed the same day of the closure, which dissolved into what is now called NSFCD,[8][9]. Nintendo-Europe's forum section of their site was also officially closed down a week later due to a site revamp, however it had been offline citing "security issues" since June of that year. On December 19, 2007, Nintendo opened new technical support forums, but discussion is now limited to technical support.[/spoiler]


It says they also closed NOE's forums too.  If NS2 can have a link to their site, I'm linking to NSFCD.

Also, wow.  This brings back memories. (http://web.archive.org/web/20080711035333/http://nsf.projectfcd.com/index.php) ;v;

And it'll be reverted in a couple days due to notability. I highly doubt NSF has been mentioned in any third-party publications. NS2 might have been considering their size.

We've been in that article for ages, seeing as I was the one that wrote the segment back ages ago.
