The top of the page is one of the most important parts of the site, being the first thing visitors will see. I have two issues with the disclaimer as it stands: firstly it takes some page space away from the main menu, and secondly I feel it could confuse visitors to both the site and forum about what's allowed and what they can do to contribute if they want to. I think there would be no harm in removing it altogether, but a couple of easy compromises would be to move it to [[Glitch_City_Laboratories:General_disclaimer]] or the bottom of the page.

:Hi ShatteredClockworks. This website is both a wiki and forum. As a wiki you can edit pages about Pokémon glitches etc. with the edit button to immediately update them. As a forum you can join it and discuss glitches and other topics. |

The disclaimer
The top of the page is one of the most important parts of the site, being the first thing visitors will see. I have two issues with the disclaimer as it stands: firstly it takes some page space away from the main menu, and secondly I feel it could confuse visitors to both the site and forum about what's allowed and what they can do to contribute if they want to. I think there would be no harm in removing it altogether, but a couple of easy compromises would be to move it to Glitch_City_Laboratories:General_disclaimer or the bottom of the page.

Hello! I've just joined this website, and I am a bit confused about how this place works! If you're kind enough, can one of you members explain to me the basics? (unsigned comment by ShatteredClockworks)
- Hi ShatteredClockworks. This website is both a wiki and forum. As a wiki you can edit pages about Pokémon glitches etc. with the edit button to immediately update them. As a forum you can join it and discuss glitches and other topics.
- When you edit a page it's encoded in wiki markup. Different ways in which you can format a page be found here.
- On this wiki we go through a process known as article validation. After editing a page it must be approved by a wiki staff member or "QC" user (admins can promote ordinary users to this category) first. This process is described here. Hope that helps! --Torchickens (talk) 08:11, 14 January 2017 (-06)
