Even if it is in a different language than Bulbapedia?

Hm... that's something I'd have to check on with some other higher ups. For some context, what language are you hoping to make your website in?Even if it is in a different language than Bulbapedia?

If you're doing this for a non-English wiki, that's not a problem at all. We had a prospective Malay wiki asking us a few things last year.Is asking for help with setting up a different pokemon related wiki against the rule on advertising? If not, then where does it go?
Swearing is allowed on the forums, so long as you don't go overboard, and don't use them to insult anybody or something similar. Slurs are also not allowed under any circumstances.What are the forum policies on swearing?
So I can't claim to be an expert on the shipping community, but I do know it has a long, long history and a lot of the ships you're talking about have existed in the community for years if not decades. I personally believe shipping doesn't have to be romantic or sexual in nature, so if somebody wants to talk about a relationship between two characters with a large age difference in a friendly way or as a sort of mentor relationship, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You can enjoy character interactions without making it romantic.hi! question, are there any moderations on ships? the pokemon fandom has a big issue with minor x adult pairings and while i do know it's impossible to decide for certain what's a yikes age gap, especially with a series as vague with it's ages as pokemon, i feel like there are a fair few obvious ones. i've looked at the bulbagarden ship list albeit not in detail, and the fact that there seems to be a ship name for every possible combo of every possible character seems... concerning, to say the least. again, i'm not suggesting for a complete nuke of the ship list, but at the very least a few obvious bad ones should maybe be addressed.i'm not sure if incest is also an issue but if so then that should be more obvious atleast
Hi! I'm going to assume you're talking about the neverending romance ship thread? If so, this is a thread that originally began a very long time ago and is used for little more than just organizational purposes now. There are a lot of pairings in this long list with some dating back decades and I can say with confidence that them existing on it does not mean we approve of every ship listed there, much less do something as awful as approve of any questionable pairs in real life. Some people have said having a list helps them so they can blacklist certain ship names as well, and have found it useful in that regard.hi! question, are there any moderations on ships? the pokemon fandom has a big issue with minor x adult pairings and while i do know it's impossible to decide for certain what's a yikes age gap, especially with a series as vague with it's ages as pokemon, i feel like there are a fair few obvious ones. i've looked at the bulbagarden ship list albeit not in detail, and the fact that there seems to be a ship name for every possible combo of every possible character seems... concerning, to say the least. again, i'm not suggesting for a complete nuke of the ship list, but at the very least a few obvious bad ones should maybe be addressed.i'm not sure if incest is also an issue but if so then that should be more obvious atleast
oh! i believe that was what i was referring to, thank you for the clarification :thumbsupcat:Hi! I'm going to assume you're talking about the neverending romance ship thread?

I do understand why you'd want to ask this though; it's a valid question. But as someone who has been exposed to shipping in this series for well over 20 years and understands how it's changed over time I can assure you that is list is just that - a list - and absolutely does not represent the site or staff's views. If you ever spot any posts that sexualize minors in any way or other questionable content, please do report them ASAP as we do not condone such things here.
