-big snip-

The only thing I can think of is goto the link listed below for more information.

http://www.lego.com/eng/info/default.asp?page=legalnotice

I believe the LEGO lawyers are aware of the problem of people using the company name ‘LEGO’ in the domain name. However there is not a big group of LEGO lawyers that are gonna attack right away. It takes time. They have other BIG fishes (jaws theme) or other issues to worry about right now. I am not a lawyer, and I don’t know the Danish law or even international law.

It’s bad enough (sigh) when I see other fan websites that don’t have the respect for a company name. Even if the website is done by an adult or a child. It would be nice if some popular websites would ‘update’ or fix their website. :-)


LEGO® = correct

LEGO™, LEGO©, lego, legos, LEGOS, LEGO(R), LEGO(C)..and others etc = incorrect

In due time the company will ask nicely please change the domain name or remove something. I don’t think ‘legowiki’ would be ok.

If you go through all the other LEGO fan sites like FBTB.net, Eurobricks.com, Brickset.com, mocpages.com, ldraw.com and others... check their ‘link’ section to other LEGO fan sites it might give you some ideas. I don’t know if that will help you?
