CWCki:CWCki is

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 ultimately 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) and that they have an expansive influences over Chris's life.

In other words, we are not so much concerned about Matthew Devoria himself, only in regards to this phone call in which he talks about Chris. Likewise, we are not so much concerned about Leonard Bearstein as we are about his role in Chris changing his name.

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 (unless it's The Wallflower, about whom we have an anonymity policy). 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/, #sonichu, 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. Frequent offenders will be banned.

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.

CWCki serves mostly to explain Chris, not so much to mock him. While CWCki doesn't subscribe to NPOV, some semblance of objectivity is an aim. If Chris says something outrageous, it should be cited where he said it. Unsubstantiated claims on Chris's nature doesn't fly on CWCki. People can draw their own conclusions about Chris without being shoved in his face. Likewise, as outlined in the POV policy, don't try too hard. If Chris is lying, then he is a liar. He is not necessarily a "worthless, piece of shit who doesn't deserve to live" based on the fact he lied.

In other words, CWCki mocks Chris by documenting him and showing how fucked up he is that it serves to mock him. CWCki takes facts about Chris and presents them with relevant explanatory content or commentary to decipher what the hell is going on such that the reader will be able to draw their own conclusion about Chris. ED will frequently jump to conclusions which may not necessarily reflect the absolute truth.

CWCki is not Wikipedia

In many ways, we strive to be more like Wikipedia than ED, in trying to be a reliable source for Chris and to do so in a critical yet somewhat fair manner.

However, we're not Wikipedia. CWCki does not have an army of admins and moderators to check article quality on a constant basis and the format, content, and size allows for more leniency than Wikipedia. At the end of the day, you're dealing with a fairly critical wiki devoted to the life and times of an autistic manchild whom the Internet mocks and its primary demographic are Internet trolls who find mocking Chris to be amusing.

Don't take CWCki so seriously. If you think an article is poor quality, by all means edit it but do not expect every single article to reflect the same sort of quality seen on Wikipedia.
