Forum:CT Archive/Minor addition to WP:NOT

Since we get someone bringing this up every now and then on talk pages and Forums, I figure we should codify what we already regularly cite when someone mentions the issue of censoring Wookieepedia from swear words and other issues they might have with our content. When someone tries to remove such things from our fair site, we long have replied with "Wookieepedia is not censored," and so I propose we add the following to What Wookieepedia is not under a "Wookieepedia is not censored" heading so we can point people to it officially:
 * "Wookieepedia's content and other pages are not censored, though users must remain mindful of our no personal attacks policy when posting comments."

This is just a common sense CT, codifying what we already have accepted as policy. Please discuss any wording changes or suggestions, etc. before making new voting options.

 * 1) Wookieepedia, like much of the internet, shouldn't be censored to begin with. --  Riffsyphon  1024 07:52, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) I personally like to avoid usage of expletives if possible for civility reasons (it has a tendency to inflate situations), but censorship is definitely not a good idea, especially when it relates to article comprehensiveness.

Against

 * 1) As long as it doesn't affect comprehensiveness (ie quotes) then I feel there sould be some regulation on language. I'm guessing this was started due to my Senate Hall forum. :) Master Fredcerique  Begun the Clone Wars has † 12:38, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) *Tope's comment above further strengthens my opposition. Really?!?! Was that necessary? Master Fredcerique  Begun the Clone Wars has † 18:15, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Does this include pornography? :P SoresuMakashi ( Everything I tell you is a lie  the truth  ) 07:57, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I believe the discussion is referring to verbal censorship. Pron is highly discouraged from Wookieepedia,... unless it happens to be Huttese in nature. --  Riffsyphon  1024 08:00, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Awwww&hellip; 1358  (Talk) 12:03, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Pornography is against the Wikia Terms of Use anyway. It wouldn't need to be stated in Wookieepedia policy because all users on all wikis have to follow the Terms of Use. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 17:17, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Haha I was just thinking the same thing. c):D Master Fredcerique  Begun the Clone Wars has † 17:20, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * The ToU is a joke to be honest, specifically the CSS restrictions. :P But Pornography is a canonical subject&hellip; 1358  (Talk) 17:23, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think you'll have to worry about LFL releasing any obscene content though. ;) And that's sexually obscene&mdash;the obscenity that is The Clone Wars doesn't count. =P - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 17:45, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Our job is not censor canon information, but represent it in clear and professional way, and I think our policies, this addition included, expresses this clearly. --Tm_T(Talk) 19:19, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
