UniWiki:Manual of Style/Trivia sections: Difference between revisions

Line 21:

In this guideline, the term "trivia section" refers to a section's ''content'', not its name. A trivia section is one that contains a ''disorganized'' and ''"unselective"'' list. However, a ''selectively'' populated list with a relatively narrow theme is not necessarily trivia, and can be the best way to present some types of information.

~~==Other policies apply==~~

Trivia sections found in other publications outside Wikipedia (such as [[IMDb]]) may contain speculation, rumor, invented "facts", or even [[libel]]. However, trivia sections (and others) in Wikipedia articles must not contain those, and their content must be maintained in accordance with Wikipedia's [[WP:POLICY|other policies]]. An item's degree of potential public interest will not excuse it from being subject to rules like [[WP:V|verifiability]], [[WP:NPOV|neutral point-of-view]], or [[WP:NOR|no original research]]. It is always best to [[WP:CITE|cite sources]] when adding new facts to a trivia section, or any other section.
