Is "WTF" allowed to appear in question title or description?

Question

Is WTF censored?

Answer 1

WTF?

f*** and brainf*** are discouraged cause corporate filters block content, which already caused issues in the past.

Occasionally people will edit out f*ck and so on, which causes occasional storms on meta.

That said:

• "IE is doing xyz, WTF?"

Is a horrible title, it conveys a judgement call which really does not add to your problem and does look unprofessional. I would totally support people editing it to

• "IE sometimes renders pages with frobs under bla conditions"

Wow, much better.

The same could be argued about the actual body of a question, how is WTF making questions any better? I totally support editing a question and making it much clearer by removing the WTF? statement and offering a general improvement beyond that.

That said, no I do not think its in the "censored" list if such a list exists.

Answer 2

I assume this is about the deletion of your question WTF moments in C programming (10k only). That was just the normal process of cleaning the site. Closed questions of no obvious value are deleted on a reasonably regular basis by the action of 10k+ reputation users.

You'll note that this was not accompanied by a loss of reputation to you because it is not a punishment. Indeed, given that this particular question was rather heavily downvoted you'll get some rep back the next time a recalc runs on your account.
