Content

You may not use your user page for any content that is prohibited on WikiBound. This includes copyright violations, pornography, excessive advertising, promotion of illegal activities, and hate speech. This is mostly common sense. Please try to make larger changes at one time, instead of multiple smaller edits. Using "Show Preview" to observe changes before saving them is highly encouraged.

While users are free to create, edit, and update their user page, be aware that WikiBound is not a social networking site. Users should not only be using WikiBound to edit their user page, and violations of this may lead to blocks.

Editing user pages

User pages are still wiki pages, so they are open for everyone to edit. It is considered extremely rude to edit another user's page without the user's request, however, and such edits may be reverted.
