Wiki FAQ

Can I join the wiki and become an editor?

Absolutely, it's free and we welcome self starting contributors with integrity and knowledge. We also provide talk pages for each article and a discussion forum to discuss various and contrasting opinions about articles.

We recommend that to start you work on making simple edits and suggest your first few articles to the staff for review so you don't have them torn down as duplicates or poorly written drafts (even though you may have worked hard on them).


Is it OK to make an article about a specific, real world person?

Yes.

However, consider that many notable people, such as Jay Wiseman, already have entries on Wikipedia. So the page on the site might list BDSM conference he has presented at, but there's no need to do a full bio, since one could just link to Wikipedia.

Substantiated, sourced information about rape and/or consent violation is acceptable (see below).

Can I use this wiki to post substantiated information about rape or boundary violation?

Yes. Please post it on your personal page, or on a locked article, so that it isn't subject to vandalism. If you need help with that, contact an admin. Anonymous posting is acceptable. If there is a link to an external account of the violation, such as a FetLife writing or an external blog post, please include that. If the person or entity also has an article on this site, feel free to add the link from that article to your account of what occurred.

I found offensive material on this wiki

Our goal is to provide a space that includes everyone, regardless of gender, bdsm role or tradition, race, ethnicity, or disability. If you find language or content that offends you, considering leaving a note on the talk page of the article in question. Please note that BDSMwiki.info makes attempts to use inclusive language whenever possible, and your viewpoints and information may help us provide better insight into a topic. Thanks!
