Features

Imageboard

The imageboard is the primary focus of the site. Any user with an account may upload images, as long as they fit the uploading guidelines.
How much you can upload is limited by your upload limit – you cannot have more posts pending approval or deletion than that.
E621 supports uploads in multiple formats, including PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WEBM. Maximum file sizes differ depending on the file type.

Posts never expire – they will remain publicly available for as long as we can host them.
Artists, character owners, and copyright holders may request posts to be taken down by filing a takedown.

Tags are crowd-sourced, and anyone with an account may edit them on any post. Some tags are locked on select posts, to prevent vandalism.
All general and species tags must follow the Tag What You See principles.

Images can be annotated with notes in order to provide translations or to clear up illegible text.
Please, do not use notes to for translations into languages other than English.

Wiki

That's where you are now.
E621 uses a custom wiki engine with basic functionality. All formatting is done via DText.

This wiki is primarily used to describe the meaning of tags, what their purpose is, what tags are aliased to them and what tags are implying them.

See the Wiki Guidelines for more information if you wish to contribute to it.
