(shortening the 'waiting' part of this paragraph, and also, I reallllly don't think a user could get _banned_ for making a bad edit - note that there are a lot of good-faith users out there)
(that's not what a general disclaimer is, and we really don't get controversial edits)

==Controversial Edits==
If you believe an edit will cause controversy of any sort, go to the talk page first and discuss it there. A user may not respond initially, as users have lives as well, but if someone does respond and you'd like to say something else, please do so! We'd love to hear your opinion if you feel strongly about it. An important thing to remember is that if the majority agrees with you, please add the information, but if the majority disagrees with you, please don't add it. We would dislike having to undo the edit, as we know that you are only trying to make a good effort towards Pikipedia.

Legal

Pikipedia concerns the Pikmin series, a franchise to which all rights are owned by Nintendo. As such, Pikipedia and its users do not claim to own any part of the series, and do not claim that this wiki is in any way official or otherwise endorsed by Nintendo.

All official media, from Pikmin and other video-game series, and media captured from one of these games by users, is regarded as fair use, with the aim being to make knowledge of the Pikmin universe accessible to anyone. These are clearly marked on their respective pages with a more detailed definition of fair use.

Content

All content, where possible with the above in mind, is made available under a Creative Commons license. This keeps the content free: any redistribution must apply a similar license to it.

Accuracy

Pikipedia is entirely created by users, and can be edited by anyone at any time. Therefore, readers cannot be assured that the content is accurate - but we like to think most of is. It is also probably not complete - but we like to think we're getting there.

If you notice an error or something missing, don't go looking for someone else to complain to about it; click the 'edit' tab at the top of the page and fix it yourself. You may need help with editing.
