CUWiki:Content disclaimer

From CUWiki

In its ambitious mission of documenting all human knowledge, CUWiki contains millions of articles on a vast array of topics. A relatively small fraction of these topics are frequently censored by educational, governmental, corporate, parental and other filtering schemes.

• Some CUWiki articles discuss words or language that are considered profane, vulgar or offensive by some readers.
• CUWiki contains many different images, some of which are considered objectionable or offensive by some readers. For example, some articles contain graphical depictions of violence, or depictions of human anatomy.
• Many articles contain frank discussion of controversial topics. Some subjects that are discussed have criminal applications in some jurisdictions. Others contain information on dangerous or otherwise risky activities (see CUWiki:General disclaimer and CUWiki:Risk disclaimer).
• CUWiki contains spoilers.
• CUWiki may contain triggers for people with post-traumatic stress disorder.
• It should be noted that as CUWiki is open to contributions from the public, there may at any time be graffiti present on CUWiki.
• There may be medical, legal or other information that is normally also the subject of professional opinions; CUWiki is not a substitute for seeking the help of a professional. Please note: CUWiki does not give legal advice or medical advice.

CUWiki's current policy is to include such content, provided it breaches neither any of our existing policies nor the laws of the state of Virginia in the United States, where CUWiki is hosted.

In any case, CUWiki is a work in progress, and many articles contain errors, bias, duplication, or simply need tender loving care. We encourage readers to help us fix these problems. The great majority of articles are written primarily or solely by individuals who are not subject matter experts, and may lack academic or professional credentials in the area.

CUWiki contains obscure information that would not be covered in a conventional encyclopedia. CUWiki's coverage of subjects is patchy, based on the whims of its volunteer contributors (in particular, subjects of interest to young technical people are likely, but not certain, to receive heavier coverage than other subjects). Readers should not judge the importance of topics based on their coverage in CUWiki, nor assume that a topic is important merely because it is the subject of a CUWiki article.
