Many of FANDOM and Nukapedia's own decisions were actively hostile and unjust towards the community, which included intrusive ads and trackers, lack of customization, forced features with no opt-out, misinformation and head-canon on articles, heavy focus on SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and much more. Independence has allowed the wiki to create beneficial policies, features and content pages that seeks to provide a friendlier and nonintrusive experience with zero tolerance for head-canon and misinformation. The wiki is extremely inclusive towards the LGBTQ+, GRSM, Plural and Otherkin communities and it welcomes such members with open arms. | Many of FANDOM and Nukapedia's own decisions were actively hostile and unjust towards the community, which included intrusive ads and trackers, lack of customization, forced features with no opt-out, misinformation and head-canon on articles, heavy focus on SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and much more.
