WikiSpooks is not a venue for extensive discussion of official narratives, which have no shortage of airtime. Alternative theories of all kinds are however welcome, and editors frustrated by Wikipedia's policies about what constitutes a "Reliable Source" should find the WikiSpooks' Editorial policies liberating.
Using Wikipedia

Wikipedia is a mine of useful information, but not with its problems. Reading this article will help orient you if you are a Wikipedia editor and should clarify why Wikispooks was set up as a completely independent enterprise.
Wikipedia's Content

If you intend to make much use of Wikipedia, you should read about Wikipedia's problems and be on the lookout for censorship, bias and other such problems in the material you draw from Wikipedia. This policy is essential reading before you import large chunks of information from Wikipedia.
Wikipedia's Style

- Full article: WikiSpooks:Style Guide
Wikispooks is not a soapbox for pushing particular theories or ideologies, but aspires to an encylopedic style which focuses on laying out the available evidence and letting readers draw their own conclusions. As such, it has quite a lot in common with Wikipedia - but with some crucial differences as regards the trustworthiness of professionals and the establishment in general.
Rules

- Full article: WikiSpooks:Document Editing Rules
As a wiki, most of WikiSpooks content is freely editable by any registered user on the site. However, as well as hosting original crowd-edited content, WikiSpooks also allows uploads of 3rd party contributions. These are editable, since to synergize with the rest of the wiki, they need to be linked in, but as original documents authored a particular person or set of persons, the substance must be preserved unedited.
