Intro
Not wanting our readers to fall into any terrible pitfalls of malware or other, we have created a URL whitelist. Any address at that exact hostname is OK (see example). Clearly for some of these sites, we are delegating responsibility to ensure that the content is clean.
Example: I link to wikipedia.org/wiki/Something, not allowed. I link to www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Something, allowed. Reason: wikipedia.org isn't on the list, whereas www.wikipedia.org is.
Criteria
To be on the list, a website must:
- Be relevant to an article on the wiki.
- Be suitable for our target audience.
- Not be harmful or encourage harm to the visitor or their computer.
- Not be offensive, illegal or immoral.
- If it primarily displays user-submitted or automated content, the website is expected to be moderated to a reasonable degree.
A website may not be approved for any other good and given reason, but it is anticipated most relevant sites will be accepted.
