Personal content policy:

A user page is a page in the User: namespace belonging to an Inkipedia user that has received the Autoconfirmed position. They can be used for a variety of things, such as sharing more information about the user. Some user subpages may be created as well, for things such as page drafts, sandboxes/experimentation with features, fan discussion, or maintenance tasks.

Inkipedia users are be permitted up to five user subpages, excluding page drafts or site maintenance.

A user file is a personal file belonging to a user for the purpose of being used on their userpage or a related userspace page. Examples include images of personal Inklings, stats, gear, or fanart.

What constitutes a user file is purpose. Some files uploaded may be used on a namespace draft page—these are not user files as their end goal is to be integrated into a mainspace or wiki policy page. User files specifically are intended to remain in User: and Blog: namespaces.

A user may also have images to use for their signature. These files, given their unique usage, will also not be considered as a user file, although their amount should be kept minimal.

A user may have up to five personal user images.

No account will have user content grandfathered in. All pages and files exceeding the limit will be deleted on November 1st, 2023 at administration's discretion. Users will be asked to remove content prior as to only preserve the most important things for their space.
