Spam is material that is added to Marspedia in opposition to the purpose of this website.

If a new contributor wants to avoid having his or her user page deleted as spam, the new contributor must show some interest in colonizing Mars. That is the topic of this website. Marspedia does not need to know a contributor's name, address, occupation, and hobbies. Marspedia needs to know that a contributor is interested in colonizing Mars and is willing to contribute articles dealing with the topic and only articles dealing with the topic. There have been fifteen-thousand-five-hundred-and-seventy-one accounts created on Marspedia. Only a handful of these accounts are actual contributors of edits related to Mars colonization. The vast majority are from people who contribute with computer programs to any wiki their computer program can find. They typically contribute links to commercial concerns completely unrelated to Mars colonization in an attempt to get free advertising at the expense of Marspedia. This is not only impolite behavior. This is criminal interference with the purpose of the owner of this website. To avoid being mistaken for one of these criminals who contribute thousands of spam articles, show some interest in colonizing Mars. Make edits that improve articles that deal with our topic. Add a new article related to Mars. A new account that does not restrict itself to on-topic contributions will be removed.
