Note: This list is incomplete, you can help the forums by contributing to it! Have a favourite thread from the general discussion forum? Post it up!

The above threads are not necessarily definitive - the current "slogan copyright" thread is more of a placeholder for example, I'm sure there are other great threads on the topic. So if you have better threads that answer the above questions, feel free to post those too.

We want a few of the best threads on each topic, so when better examples are found we can replace the weaker ones with those.
