'''Porn Base Central''' is a free-access, free-content Internet gay porn encyclopedia, as a means to that end, an online community of individuals interested in building and using a high-quality gay porn encyclopedia in a spirit of mutual respect. Therefore, '''there are certain things that [[PBC:What PBC is not|Porn Base Central is ''not'']]'''.
 
Our community exists for one purpose: writing a free, [[PBC:NPOV|neutral]], [[PBC:V|well-sourced]] gay porn [[encyclopedia]]. Anyone who shares this goal is invited to join. However, editing is a privilege, not a right. It may be revoked by [[PBC:BLOCK|blocking]], [[PBC:BAN|banning]] or otherwise [[PBC:Arbitration|restricting]] people who damage or disrupt Porn Base Central.

:Pages currently in [[:Category:PBC content policies]]:
;[[PBC:Article titles|Article titles]]:The ideal title for a PBC article is recognizable to English speakers, easy to find, precise, concise, and consistent with other titles.
;[[PBC:Biographies of living persons|Biographies of living persons]]:Articles about living persons, which require a degree of sensitivity, must adhere strictly to PBC's content policies. Be very firm about high-quality references, particularly about details of personal lives. Contentious material that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately.
;[[PBC:Images|Image policy]]:All images that are placed in an article should be clear enough to show what they are trying to illustrate. PBC is not a repository for files, it stores files that are used on PBC, and should only store files used on PBC.
;[[PBC:Neutral point of view|Neutral point of view]]:Everything that our readers can see, including articles, templates, categories and portals, must be written neutrally and without [[PBC:UNDUE|bias]]. In some cases, for persons, websites, companies, or other entities that this encyclopedia describes, the neutrality policy may be limited or canceled by the PBC's administrative committee.
;[[PBC:No original research|No original research]]:Articles may not contain any unconfirmed theories, data, statements, concepts, arguments, or ideas; or any new interpretation, analysis, or synthesis of published data, statements, concepts, arguments, or ideas.
;[[PBC:Verifiability|Verifiability]]:Articles should cite sources whenever possible. While we cannot check the accuracy of cited sources, we can check whether they have been published by a reputable publication and whether independent sources have supported them on review. Any unsourced material may be challenged and removed. The [[PBC:Verification Committee|PBC Verification Committee]] is responsible for verifying sources.
;[[PBC:What PBC is not|What PBC is not]]:PBC is an online gay porn encyclopedia. Please avoid the temptation to use PBC for other purposes. PBC discourages the publication of non-gay content in articles, it is completely unacceptable and should be removed immediately. However, in some cases, exceptions to this rule are allowed, procedure as determined by decisions of the [[PBC:Administrative Committee|PBC Administrative Committee]].
