	I came up with an idea recently which I think could be a worthwhile experiment. I thought it might be interesting to create alternative CWCki pages that, unlike the mainline pages, are written in a formal tone and required to source everything using academically reliable sources (scholarly papers, mainstream news, and currently-accessible primary sources excluding reuploads). I'd be interested to see how much we could write about Chris using only respectable sources, and it might also be of use to anyone wanting to write about Chris for their college papers, news articles, and whatever else. The pages would be stored as subpages of 'academic' (e.g. sonichu.com/cwcki/academic/Sonichu). Would anyone be interested if I started a few articles as a pilot test?

	Just stating the obvious is also why I think the template got used so liberally in the first place, since this is such a universal rule in the CWCsphere by this point. Plus, it's really not any different from when Chris himself did the exact same thing in his comics when people were calling him and his characters gay, drawing more attention to any unintentionally homoerotic themes in his comics. Ironically, when people added this template, they also added things like a person's details that aren't even related to Chris, even ones about them during the time that they've "moved on", a common justification I see in a lot of these, like I saw on the [[gal-pals]] page, completely destroying the whole point of doing that. I think just what's on the front page, which makes it abundantly clear that you shouldn't engage with Chris at all, is enough, and we really shouldn't be held accountable for any retard that decides to ignore this warning.

	I see that this was already discussed by Hurtful, specifically with regards to contacting past orbiters in Chris's life, but I don't think I'm that huge a fan of protips that preach not contacting him at all, this includes the ones seen on the [[Flutter]] and [[Sightings (2025)]] pages, where you still have people going out of their way contacting these people regardless. I think it's been made abundantly clear at this point that no matter how many times we warn people not to engage with Chris, they're going to do it anyway.
