In favor of word

Why does the word in favor of is used so much in Wikipedia? 139.192.151.110 (talk) 12:37, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I only see one use of "in favor of" in this article, and it is now removed per your request. Different phrases may be used for different reasons across Wikipedia, but the appropriate venue to raise any concerns about their usage would be on the appropriate articles' talk pages. This talk page specifically is for discussion relating to the improvement of Club Penguin. PlanetJuice (talk • contribs) 15:19, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Remove run-on sentence

Surely, the last sentence of the intro section should not be a single sentence:

"Many of the private servers were shut down around May 15, 2020, after Digital Millennium Copyright Act filings by the Walt Disney Company were sent on May 13, 2020, with the most notable server, Club Penguin Rewritten, a complete recreation of Club Penguin launched on February 12, 2017, accumulating a large online community (in excess of 11 million users) in relation to the consequences and restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic and its lockdowns, being shut down on April 13, 2022 by the City of London Police in compliance with a copyright investigation request from Disney."

Particularly "in relation to the consequences and restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic and its lockdowns" does not seem to be a logical follow-on to the previous line(s). 38.49.92.247 (talk) 19:23, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've split it into three sentences. —ADavidB 19:56, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

File that might be public domain

The file that is used under "Decline and discontinuation" is only text, so i wanted to ask if the file isn't just in the public domain? 𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙧-𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙚-𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚^(🕷) ^- ^(✉) 17:19, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
