This page briefly describes a few general rules and may require some more additions.



This wiki is moderated - so you can be as creative as you want, but remember that we have guidelines. Pages filled with made-up stuff are fine but that nonsense should not extend to the actual structure or framework of this wiki.

This wiki is entirely moderated and pages/other things that are not up to snuff will be deleted.

It is the intention of the administrators that this wiki's usefulness should be equal to its comedic/artistic value, so please respect your fellow editors.

Regular Users Can

  • Create a page and write stuff in it
  • Completely make up the content of a page (However, do not create articles about characters/sources that you have created.)
  • Upload and post images
  • Edit an existing page - please add to a page and only completely overhaul an old one if it was low-quality.

Regular Users Cannot

  • Delete a page
  • Edit a protected page
  • Use code on page to suggest that a template has been used

It is often unnecessary to create articles about specific poops, and it is far better just to supply a YouTube link to the poop itself. If it is an extremely notable poop that deserves its own page, please start the entry with this code:

{{poop}}
