- That is not really censoring. It is still clear what the word is. Use a replacement word instead. No need to actually use the word.--GodPray 17:11,2/23/2012
- If you're referring to this wiki's chat, I would have to agree with Godisme. However, most wikis have their own rules on what is acceptable terminology while on the chat. Shotrocket6 15:37, February 27, 2012 (UTC)

- There are no global chat rules beyond Wikia's general Terms of Use, but there generally is no good reason to allow unnecessary swearing in chat. The only legit reason I could think of would be quoting something from an adult-oriented show like Sons of Anarchy in the wiki for that show or some strange roleplaying wiki where swearing is allowed. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 27 Feb 2012 7:14 PM Pacific
- Though you may be right, it may also depend on the subject of the wiki. A wiki for a mature subject may allow swearing in their chat. Shotrocket6 14:46, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
