While the boldness of editors is a great asset, editors should take care to not edit disruptively or recklessly. While many changes can be easily reverted, particularly significant changes can become long-lasting and harder to fix. Furthermore, being bold should be exercised with caution if your bold edit is particularly in-depth, affects many pages, or covers a controversial topic. In such cases, [[SmashWiki:Consensus|consensus may be required]] for such an edit to be performed. Always use your best judgement in these cases, and consider consulting with the talk page before making bold edits. If you're unsure of anything before making a bold edit, try asking for advice, whether on a talk page or with another user. | While the boldness of editors is a great asset, editors should take care to not edit disruptively or recklessly.

Furthermore, regardless of your intentions, being bold is not an excuse to violate any policies on SmashWiki. | |||
