Our policy prevents linking to Pocaloid... So users who are known have their page removed and no songs are allowed to be present on the wikia. We don't do anything more then that, this is to protect ourselves and show support for the vocaloid software. It also protects producers... The last thing someone needs is a hotlink to their videos once its been discovered they aren't playing morally nice. Likewise, it protects editors from discrimination and accusations.

Its not our place to lecture people about morals, we spread information to the best of what we can so this means we have to make sure people know the consequences of their actions both to them and Vocaloid.... Its a warning + education service really, about how vocaloid fans can react nothing more.

Beyond this we're actually more "neutral" on the subject and don't tend to take sides on things though individuals are free to take sides. There are some wikia that do link to ill-sources, but this is always risky and things can be removed without warning when discovered. Its best to have good practices and avoid going too far to begin with.

Other then learning to respect studio, providers and producers wishes, there isn't really much else to worry about on the wikia beyond vandalism and information gathering/sourcing... This is about as complex being here gets.

I know the One Piece wikia governs itself and things get more complex once you get this level of fine tuning... The last thing I was ever involved with there involved a vote against something. I voted by the old rules only to find a year beforehand the rules had changed. As a consequences, the NEW rules were open to abuse and politics and I admit I've not been around there much since because I don't like that. Pocaloid versus is a moral thing which is fairly black and white... I'll take a conflict like that over how long everyone thinks an individual gets band for anyway... Especially when you're insulted for saying "2 weeks" because you don't think the editor has done really bad things that warren something like a 6 month ban (rolls eyes).

We should be thankful about what we've got at least for the moment.
