I agree with Goldtimbers and Garland completely. Swearing does not have to be on this wiki. I wrote the request for cursing on mainspace pages because we were expanding our field, and some of the games we would be writing about contained swear words. It only seemed natural to allow it there.

When cursing was allowed here it was to only be used on mainspace pages, not on blogs and definitely not in comments. I don't see the need for swearing in blogs and comments. The only thing I see that people want it for is QOTW, which really is dying. Even if it wasn't, I still would not support swearing. People can easily find good quotes with clean language. If this is some last-ditch effort to revive QOTW, I say just let it go.

Also, when I said that not everything needed to be a vote, I meant for only minor things to be on the 1ASA. This would include things such as Wiki Affiliates (which is pretty useless now) and theme changes. Not rule changes and promotions.

With a PotCO emulator on its way, and role-playing to be legalized once more I feel we need to restrict swearing to mainspace. We all know the drama and fighting that comes as a result of RP, and swearing would only make things worse.
