view · edit Frequently asked questions Why is the link to 8chan / 8kun not included? The current consensus of the Wikipedia community, as summed up by Compassionate727 in March 2021, is: There is a consensus to exclude the 8chan website from the external links section. Most editors agree that our moral obligation to not facilitate access to a website notable for containing child pornography overrides any benefit to the project derived from giv[ing] the reader the opportunity to see what the subject says about itself (WP:ELOFFICIAL). Consensus can change, but not without another similar community discussion as happened when that consensus was formed. Please do not boldly re-add the link without starting another talk page discussion which directly addresses the closing statement and arguments brought up in the first discussion.

Site is up for me.--Ianmacm (talk) 16:08, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why the antisemitism sidebar not Discrimination sidebar is in the lead?

Since it is agreed that the website is racist, and antisemitism is a type of racism, why not put Discrimination sidebar instead of antisemitism sidebar? ☆SuperNinja2☆ TALK! 06:54, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed the sidebar. --MtPenguinMonster (talk) 07:03, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
