Wikispooks Policy attempts to clearly and concisely define what people can expect from this project, whether as a reader or as an editor.

Editorial Policy

Full article: WikiSpooks:Editorial Policy

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.

Article Style

Full article: WikiSpooks:Style Guide

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 crucial 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. Even stubs should have a semantic object. Page deletions are rare, and most commonly carried out either on technically obsolete pagesCite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag or duplicates.[1]

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 familiarize yourself 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.
