Why does the wikia censor the game characters?

Fandom and it's consequences have been a disaster for the Wiki scene

holy shit it fucking does! anyway, i can answer this very easily. fandom's very, very strict when it comes to anything that could be misconstrued as any manner of ist or phobic

>>713490751 (OP)
because "coon" is a slur toward black people and that's the whole joke of Cartman's superhero name being that.

>>713490751 (OP)
Because Fandom loves pretending every piece of media ever made is squeaky clean and utterly devoid of controversial content. The Cartman example is just one of many—they sanitize character names, rewrite plot summaries, and sometimes even remove entire sections if they think it might upset someone. It’s like letting a bunch of corporate HR interns run the archives of gaming history.

I had no idea this was a racial slur when I first saw the episode. I think it was someone at school who explained the joke to me one day

>>713490751 (OP)
your first mistake was using a fandom site

>>713490751 (OP)
these episodes were not funny. this was already well into nu south park territory.

Fandom is the most corporate bootlicking company on the planet that would make YouTube blush.

>>713491317
So do they also censor the words cricket, ape, or chimp? Its a fucking animal.

>>713493995
South Park isn't funny in general.

Get out of the closet

>>713490751 (OP)
The Cunny? I don't get it, that has nothing to do with Cartman's design.

>>713495264
why yes I absolutely want my data harvested by some random plugin

>>713494747
there aren't any characters named cricket/ape/chimp in South Park
if there was and it was used in the show as a joke about the slurs, then probably.

>>713495819
They had a whole episode where they uncensored "shit" as a joke. South Park has certainly fallen if it's starting to censor racist jokes.

>>713490751 (OP)
Because they can't just call him the nigger

>>713490751 (OP)
Fandom is a large company now, it's probably something automatically done to avoid advertiser trouble.

>South Park has certainly fallen if it's starting to censor racist jokes.
NTA. The Fanon wiki, as it is expected, it's not official.

>>713491317
maybe they should stop acting like infamous animals

I went out of my way to hide fandom sites in searches. They run like shit, garbage seo, bloat aids everywhere

Looks like it's a platform rule, not the local wiki or the admin being retarded (even though he's likely a bootlicking autism)

>>713496658
Fandom fucking sucks.

>SEO raping advertising firm scrubs their adware and blatant misinformation filled articles in an attempt to keep them squeaky clean
>fags are already looking for alternatives to get away from these scum sucking shits
Inb4 they buy up that competition too because monopolies and nepotism is the true name of the game.

If its not Fandom its Medium

Advertisers need to realize that limiting their market and options is wasting opportunity.

>>713496508
>advertiser
You mean google.
Who is basically the sole advertiser online (where it matters), and the only advertising client for Fandom.

Microaggressions.

>Fandom
The creators of that site need to be hanged, drawn and quartered.

Because even vague benign abstract racism IS NOT OKAY!!!!!

I wish Boondocks got a game before SP did. The characters actually know how to fight and do so in a stylish way reminiscent of fighting games or anime. Boondocks is also a much funnier show. They aren't afraid to cross lines that Trey and Matt wouldn't do because they're afraid of shitskins bombing CC or people calling them racist.

Fandom is for profit driven advertisements, when wikis should be for pedantry demanding autists.

>coon = nigger
I don't get it?

DUDE. WEED.

There, I summed up every single episode for the past 5 years. You are caught up now

You're not genuine with your question
Grow up

>>713493995
Most of the episode were eh but the Kenny subplot carries it

>>713490751 (OP)
It's because Fextralife plays their streams automatically on twitch so they run the risk of getting banned since the wiki is technically part of the stream

People who insist that they have the right to never be offended are the ones you should offend the most, at any given time. Whether it be kikes, niggers, towelheads, pajeets or Americans.

>>713508776
It's fucking fandom being turbo kikes and demanding that everything is sanitized to iToddler levels to maximize their ad profits.

>>713508963
then stop using fandom

>>713490751 (OP)

what do you think?

Imagine going to a wiki for south park and it's more woke than wikipedia itself.

>>713496403
they've used that word in the show uncensored. They probably could if they could come up with a good reason for it.

>>713491317
I though it was "cunny" for some reason

>>713498514
they should also probably realize that nobody is going to purposefully click on an ad from an autistic fan wiki. I say purposefully, because the ads will pop in when you click somewhere there wasn't an ad before and make you click on it by accident.

>>713501707
>The characters actually know how to fight
the whole point of south park's combat is that they're more or less playing make pretend.

>>713508962
I don't understand how you can realistically think it's possible to live in a world where nothing offensive ever happens. Trump has been nothing but a blessing wake up call for these people, because they have to face the reality that not everything can be sanitized. Hopefully they'll learn to stop trying. They can't win with the same old strategies anymore.

>>713509437
Any self-respecting community avoids it, the issue is that for a long time they were the default choice and easiest to create and maintain, so a fuckton of old wikis are stuck with them since migrating those is a massive chore nobody wants to undertake.

>>713507147
They censored the fucking cheese too. No, I am not kidding.

>>713510170
>they literally did this in response to the fentanyl floyd riots
I guess I'm not exactly shocked. They also did this with aunt jemima and land of lakes as well.

Me like fagdom LOLMAO gottem

But coon isn't long enough to fit there. Is it coony?

>>713511775
it's just The Coon, but the person that made the wiki page was a retard

>>713493756
Every day that passes is another day that goes by that young children don't know OF Ol' Zip Coon.

>>713491317
Nobody actually knows why black people were called coons, it used to mean rural whites that would wear those coonskin caps. It's also why Benjamin Franklin would wear coonskin caps in front of the French, to show him to be like the rustic people of the frontier.

>>713511934
He posts to Fandom so the retardation checks out.
