Rules for participating in adding content[]

  1. Don't add totally crazy content, for example "Humans land on Titan." when it's 2025, or content that nobody would really care about "The hospital in the city of Northtown is getting renovated."
  2. No such things like Racism, Homophobia or something similar to that in my page, this should be obvious. This doesn't mean you can't add events that have something to do with BLM, LGBTQ, or whatever, just don't insult them.
