Question about account sharing | Fandom (2024)

FAQs

Is sharing accounts allowed? ›

Account sharing is prohibited by the terms of service of many online accounts, such as Google and Facebook. It can result in account suspensions or even termination, possibly causing users to lose access to important data or services.

Hey! It is allowed to use multiple accounts! Just not if you use them to evade a ban or block. Also, if you just wanna use a different username, you can rename your account.

Hello, there is no "deleting" an account due to how MediaWiki (the software that Fandom runs on) works. However, you can anonymize it by disabling it. This can be done by going to Special:CloseMyAccount and confirming that you want to close it.

Every additional user represents another potential point of risk. This could be due to inadvertent mistakes, like accidentally sharing the credentials or leaving them exposed, or more malicious intentions, such as intentional misuse of data.

The use of a shared account by multiple people limits the ability to monitor or audit who has used the account at any given time. Shared accounts may also offer partial or full anonymity to those that use them.

Wiki departures

A number of wikis have migrated away from Fandom, citing issues such as intrusive advertising and branding, a non-user-friendly site design, a lack of customizability and company cross-promotion which is often irrelevant to wiki content.

If you notice such behaviors, which can include bullying, harassment, and threats, it is essential to step back and avoid participating or encouraging these types of behaviors. Focus on making fan communities a kind, welcoming, and inclusive space for all fans.

Fandom's Terms of Use says that users can edit or post on Fandom if they are 13 or older. 13 is the minimum age.

Watch your language

We don't allow cursing on wikis that are likely to be read by children. And watch out for an individual wiki's rules. Many don't allow any bad language. Using strong language to attack others is never okay.

Creating an account on Fandom is free, easy and a great way to join a passionate community of people who love what you love.

Communities are about working together, and all Fandom communities are open to the public to edit. There is no option to restrict editing to the founder or to a particular group. Unnecessary page protection is a common mistake that is considered harmful to a wiki's development.

In general, the age limit of 13 or older for fandoms and wikis is designed to protect the privacy and safety of children. It also helps to ensure that these websites and services are appropriate for their intended audience.
