The Brothers Chaps have chosen to keep the content on homestarrunner.com suitable for audiences of all ages. Similarly, much of the content in this wiki adheres to such standards. However, some articles contain objectionable content which requires special handling.

[edit] Censoring Interviews

Interviews and articles which contain objectionable language must follow these steps:

• The original article must be tagged with the {{uncensored}} template. The template itself must be wrapped in a <noinclude> tag. For example (from Inkhole Interview):

<noinclude>{{uncensored|Inkhole Interview (censored)}}</noinclude>

• Swear words must be wrapped with the swear template parameter tag. For example:

  This sentence talks about {{{swear|crap}}}.

Note that three curly braces are used instead of two.

• The "Interviews and Public Appearances" category also needs to be wrapped in a <noinclude> tag. For example:

<noinclude>[[Category: Interviews and Public Appearances]]</noinclude>

In order to create their censored versions simply:

• Create the new page (usually add "(censored)" to the original page name).
• Add the {{censored}} template to the target page.
• Then transclude the original page and set the swear parameter to "*****".
• Add the "Censored Interviews" category.

For example (from Inkhole Interview (censored)):

{{censored|Inkhole Interview}}
{{:Inkhole Interview|swear=*****}}
[[Category:Censored Interviews]]

[edit] Censoring within Articles

• Use the {{inlinecontentwarning}} template for objectionable links or text embedded within articles or talk pages. Optionally, external links may also be marked with the {{sitelanguagenotice}} template.
• Use the {{sightingslanguagewarning}} template to indicate links to external sightings that may contain objectionable language.
