While Wikia's rules apply to every wiki, each individual wiki then creates its own rules based on the needs of the wiki. It's virtually impossible for Wikia to foresee every possible occurrence of vandalism. One such example is the "Common Mistakes" section of the rules. Wikia couldn't have foreseen those, so we added them. They also couldn't foresee the problem with users replying to old posts, which is why we created the rule.
