RationalWiki:Mission

The RationalWiki Mission is:

We also have a fifth, unofficial purpose, which is to provide people who agree with the previously-stated goals a place to just hang out and have fun with like-minded people.

RationalWiki is not a general encyclopedia; it does not require articles on every known subject. However, the wiki's mainspace welcomes many articles that do not relate to the primary missions of RationalWiki providing that they are factually accurate and of interest to the community at large. These include articles on general science, historical events and important individuals throughout the world.

The mission outlines what RationalWikians like to write about. As per most community standards, it's not a hard rule, but more of a suggestion. Articles that are wholly or mostly on-mission are likely to stay; those that aren't will probably go.

Articles that don't feel missional can be tagged with missionality (for rewrites) or afd (for deletion).

To transclude the RW mission, use mission. If you want to copy the current mission and don't want it to change with any future change of the mission use
