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.

Our Style Guide should help you fine tune your style to fit this project. As an encylopedia, the focus is on clear exposition of the available evidence - so the writing style has a lot in common with Wikipedia - but with key differences as regards the trustworthiness of professionals and the establishment in general.
Page Creation/Deletion
Users are welcome to create pages on any topics where the official narrative is suspect. Where a page is created which has minimal content, use template:stub to indicate this. At a minimum, even stubs should generally have at least one useful piece of information (or link to a document). Page deletions are rare, and should only be carried out on pages that were created in error - i.e. those with no deep political relevance.
Wikipedia
- Full article: Wikipedia
- Full article: Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a mine of useful information, but it does have serious 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.
Importing from Wikipedia

- Full article: WikiSpooks:Importing From Wikipedia
If you intend to make much use of Wikipedia, you should make yourself familiarize with Wikipedia's problems so you can better detect [[censorship or bias in the material you draw from Wikipedia. This policy is essential reading before you import large chunks of information from Wikipedia.
Document Editing 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 by a particular person or set of persons, the substance must be preserved unedited.
Privacy Policy

- Full article: Wikispooks:Privacy policy
The Wikispooks wiki is a public document and all contributions by editors are publicly available, although WikiSpooks does not retain IP addresses and is doing what it can to preserve your anonymity. If you are concerned about concealing your identity, especially if you are revealing classified information, you are advised to take extra measures to stay anonymous.
