Frequently Asked Questions
Contents
How do I edit/contribute?
- Unlike in Wikipedia, not everyone can add, remove, or modify information on the IntactiWiki. Like Wikipedia, IntactiWiki uses WikiMedia markup language (because it uses the same MediaWiki engine). If you want to edit and/or contribute, please write an email to info at intactiwiki dot com and ask for write access. If you get write access, register and read Help:Editing to learn how to edit/contribute to the IntactiWiki. Please remember to cite your sources.
How do I add a new page?
- Instructions here: First article.
Are you defaming people?
- The purpose of this website is to present the facts and the truth as they are. None of what appears on the mainspace of this wiki is invented or fabricated (if such is found, it should be removed/fixed immediately); it should all be perfectly sourced material that is on record. The facts may be incriminating of certain institutions, organizations and individuals. They are what they are, and do not blame the creators and contributors of this wiki.
Why am I listed on the IntactiWiki?
- If you’ve found yourself listed on the IntactiWiki, it’s due to your intactivism activities -- or due to some activity or connection you have to circumcision lobbying and/or circumcision lobbyists.
How do I remove myself from the IntactiWiki?
- Unless you prove yourself to be disconnected from the promotion of circumcision, there is nothing you can do to remove yourself from these pages. To suggest removal, write an email to info at intactiwiki dot org.
Some info seems pointless. Why is it here?
- Because one of the primary purposes of the IntactiWiki is to gather information that could prove useful in the future, some information listed may not seem immediately relevant. This information could prove useful in showing bias, establishing a connection, or making sense of other information yet to be added.
Who contributes to the IntactiWiki?
- We don't allow everyone to contribute here, just to keep away trolls and destructive people! Most of our contributors prefer to work anonymously.
Why not just add this content to Wikipedia?
- There is an enormous amount of WikiLawyering going on at Wikipedia when it comes to controversial topics. If one factual statement is added from one side, another must be added from the other side to remain neutral, until admins and editors claim that the article is too long and start removing content. At this point, important and factual information gets omitted from Wikipedia, and so it may find itself here. Please feel free to take any content here and add it to any relevant Wikipedia article. However, do not copy large amounts of text, as it will result in a possible block and prevent the moving any future content to Wikipedia. Only move 1-2 statements (or sentences) per day.
