CWCki is a lot of things. While not a comprehensive list, it's a basic overview of what CWCki is and what it is not.
CWCki is about Chris
As obvious as it sounds, this is ultimate an encyclopedia about Christian Weston Chandler, not so much the trolls who troll him. People mentioned on this site are mostly mentioned because they are directly connected to Chris in some ways (see here and here for some details).
CWCki is not always right
Just because CWCki says it, doesn't mean it's right. Any wiki is not guaranteed to be correct 100% of the time and because we don't have over 9000 editors to constantly edit CWCki every given second like Wikipedia, it'll sometimes take a while for bad information to be corrected.
CWCki is typically right on things but just because CWCki says it doesn't mean it's to be taken as the literal word of God.
On a similar topic, 99 out of 100 times something is not on CWCki doesn't mean there's some grand conspiracy about why it's not on there. Sometimes, people haven't gotten around to adding e-mails, transcribing stuff, making articles for aspects, etc. If something needs to be done, DO IT FAGGOT.
CWCki is not a forum
There's plenty of places to discuss Chris - PVCC, /cwc/, even the ED forums. But CWCki is mostly about documenting Chris.
The article talk page should serve as a place to talk about how to improve the articles, not so much the content. Discussion about the content to clear up a misunderstanding that may influence the accuracy of the article is fine, but using the talk page to talk about how Chris is an idiot, how you've got an awesome trolling plan, that you think you've figured out why Chris is really messed up, etc. is strongly discouraged.
CWCki is not ED
We're not about "lulz" (at least, for the most part). The Chris-chan ED article was what spawned CWCki but that doesn't mean we're intended to be some extended ED article. CWCki is intended to be a useful resource in documenting Chris. We're not about spouting memes. There's nothing wrong with describing a vast amount of something as being "over 9000" or describing that video where Chris sings "Never Gonna Give You Up" as a Rickroll or pointing out that in The Adventures of the American Rabbit, the ending involves a rabbit doing a barrel roll. But please, don't feel compelled to add memes all over the place in order to be "funny." It's not.
Likewise, let Chris's fail speak for itself. If you have to go to great lengths to mock Chris, you're doing it wrong. Don't insert commentary into quotes, people can determine how fucked up Chris is himself without being told to.
