==What Is Always Acceptable for the QBWiki==

Reasonably available public information, such as being part of a school's quizbowl team or having attended a tournament, is always fair game for inclusion on this site.  This information usually comes from other online sources, and thus is already generally available.

Personal details that do not pertain directly to quizbowl and that are not already available on the internet.  For example, a story recounting what you saw [[Leo Wolpert]] do at the 2004 [[Chicago Open]] is acceptable material for the site as long as it is accurate, but Leo also has the permission to request that such information be deleted.  His actual attendance at that tournament qualifies under "What is Always Acceptable For the QBWiki".

Please contact the QBWiki's principal administrator, Jonah Greenthal (jonah+qbwiki@jonahgreenthal.com) if you feel there is something about you that should be removed under the above.

Please do not make substantial changes to your own page removing information without prior permission. In addition to the aforementioned policies, keep in mind that simply editing a page does not make information disappear: old versions of the page are always accessible in the history tab. If an administrator agrees that the content was inappropriate, they will delete the entire page and (if necessary) re-create it in a cleaned-up form so that the information to be removed is no longer available.
