== Dealing with political screamers == | |||
Some political screamers do indeed exist. For example, the [[Free Enterprise Fund Committee Commercial]]. It's important that when reporting on a political screamer, you do not write the article in a way which is biased to support one side over the other. You may indeed make jokes in the article still, but make sure they are not done in a way that would be partisan. | |||

== Artificial Intelligence == | |||
Avoid the usage of AI when writing your pages. While indeed, ChatGPT and other tools can help you write or rewrite pages, they have a very specific way of writing sentences which removes all creativity and openness that a human has, and people can tell when something is AI-generated. Do not add any [https://screamer.wiki/index.php?title=Waifu_Basics&diff=prev&oldid=149479&diffmode=source unnecessary sentences] that are written by AI (including non-AI too) to an article either. You can still use it to help you out however. | |||
