This page is in progress.
Another user is currently adding or changing substantial content. As a courtesy, until this tag is removed please do not edit this page unless absolutely necessary.
To the person working: This tag is not a claim to the page that you can leave and come back to later. You are expected to be adding or changing content right now. You should save your progress periodically (about every 15 to 30 minutes) or indicate in some way that you are still working, or else the tag should be removed so that other users may edit the page.
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 uncensored content which requires special handling.

Censoring Interviews

Interviews and articles which contain objectionable language must be tagged with the {{uncensored}} template. 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.

In order to create their censored versions simply add the {{censored}} template to the target page (usually add "(censored)" to the original page name). Then transclude the original page and set the swear parameter to "***". For example:

  {{:Inkhole Interview|swear=***}}

See Inkhole Interview and Inkhole Interview (censored) for an example.
