Hello, I'm one of the owners of this wiki.

Firstly, if someone was to attack someone's sexuality, that would be a violation of our policies. I have not seen any instances of that on here. I would appreciate you directing me to the comments/messages in question.

Secondly, it is not our responsibility to enforce the age policy. It is the responsibility of individual users to adhere to the policies and to staff to enforce them, not local administrators. "you confirm that you are...13 or older (applicable to users located in the rest of the world including the U.K.), and acknowledge that the Service is not intended for children under such ages," By creating an account, the user confirms they are 13 or older, so an administrator is not responsible for figuring out if they're lying. Nothing in the policies says we are responsible for it. Each user is.

Thirdly, I do appreciate you pointing out that that word may be considered offensive. I will keep that in mind in case anyone is offended by it. I would like, however, to point out that that word is used frequently on FANDOM's LGTB wiki, which I am absolutely certain FANDOM is aware of; they used it as an example in a blog post for which communities would not be moving to fandom.com.

Finally, I would like to remind you that you are responsible for adhering to our policies on this wiki when you join it, and have broken several about politeness and kindness in this discussion. Please know that if you are blocked from the wiki, it is not because you were concerned about FANDOM's terms, but because of breaking our policies.

Catherine
