I will complete this

I will complete this later today. I have a specific format in mind, so please don't mess with it. Faythoffenrir (talk) 19:07, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Stop adding those. They are not official episodes. Faythoffenrir (talk) 02:15, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Check out your user page for my full retort and apology. I don't really want to fight you but I'm telling you that your article is incomplete without those other episodes. I'm just saying, dude. 10:35, 27 December 2009 (CST) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.216.44.213 (talk)

Critical Reception is missing

KnowYourMeme also gets some negative reception inside the internet community. It might be worth to add a few lines dedicated to that. It gets as much negative as positive, both should be desribed --BalkanPolka (talk) 21:48, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedy deleted because... it's very well written, you communist pig. --65.36.10.201 (talk) 17:26, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Origin

When I sold the site to Ben Huh, he was confused on the origin and since then, the credits and dates listed on the About page of Know Your Meme (along with this article) were not accurate. Thus, I published the most detailed and accurate account ever put out there, based on facts provided from emails I gathered in chronological order. A link to the post has been linked as the note to Know Your Meme Credits. Meanwhile, an anonymous person attempted to undo my edit so I thought I would clarify the data here. Andrewbaron (talk) 13:10, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Next: Another anon person has attempted to undo this history citing that the history is 'long established but no one has ever actually put out a detailed history and no one has used email proof. So as you can see from my blog post at Dembot, I have provided the only historical acct online and its documented with email proof. Please do not continue to undo my edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrewbaron (talk • contribs) 22:52, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Updated in December 2012

Added in editor / founders / staff credit, created history section for credits & timeline, added more info on research process to website section. All cited with relevant documents on Know Your Meme. Professormeme (talk) 02:34, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: Andrew Baron, I updated this entry with information provided by The Daily Dot. Since the origin story appears to be in dispute among staff members, I think the next logical step is to rely on externally sourced information from third party news publications with little interest in being partial (rather than blog posts or documents hosted by those directly involved in dipute). Or is there another protocol to settle credit disputes on Wikipedia? Professormeme (talk) 03:13, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New Season 2017

No clue what they are planning on here, but better start considering how to treat the new series. Note, I can't find any rules for the colors for the seasons so I left it green like the previous season for now. Devilmanozzy (talk) 07:11, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Went with Cyan for Season 2017. Adding more info in Infobox as it appears this will be more than a trial run. Devilmanozzy (talk) 11:24, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Link to "Know Your Meme" youtube channel

Please stop removing the youtube channel link. Episodes can't be viewed on the official website and the article itself covers mostly the episodes. While they have a episode section it auto loads all content when viewed. Infact, the official website link needs a warning. Devilmanozzy (talk) 14:42, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
