Make it clever. Keep it kind.

Wordy works best when everyone can enjoy the surprise of a good definition. These are the same three promises members make when they join.

The three promises

  1. Kind

    No insults or jokes aimed at real people.

    Make up meanings, not targets. Leave out threats, bullying, and anyone’s private information.

  2. Original

    Your own words, not copied from anywhere.

    Bring a definition you wrote yourself. Repeated submissions and spam crowd out other people’s ideas.

  3. Family-friendly

    Clever beats crude.

    Keep sexual or graphic content out of definitions and examples. A playful idea can still be welcoming to everyone reading along.
