:::Thanks for the info. But that's one of the reasons why I posted that link. We could rephrase "piracy" to avoid problems [[User:Rudxain|Rudxain]] ([[User talk:Rudxain|talk]]) 06:21, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

::::How would we rephrase ‘piracy’ though? It's baked into the industries as piracy and may not be recognisable otherwise. [[User:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|'''''AnotherConsumerRightsPerson''''']] ([[User talk:AnotherConsumerRightsPerson|talk]]) 07:12, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

:::::Good question. I was thinking of redirects. "piracy" and other alternative terms would all go to the same article [[User:Rudxain|Rudxain]] ([[User talk:Rudxain|talk]]) 07:22, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

::::::Still got no game plan, but I can at least propose "Unauthorized replication" for the primary title, since I have seen it referred to as such inside EULAs. [[User:JamesTDG|JamesTDG]] ([[User talk:JamesTDG|talk]]) 11:59, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

An article which is neutrally descriptive of piracy would be fine, however the same effect could generally be achieved by simply linking the wikipedia page for online piracy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_piracy

::::::I don't really see what it would make sense for us to include on an article about piracy that would be more useful to us than just linking the wikipedia page. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 14:30, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
