- We inherit all of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, with the only exceptions described in the immediately following points.
- Wikipedia's notability guidelines do not apply here - instead we only require that articles relate to financial modelling.
- Wikipedia's 'no original research' policy does not apply here. As this is not an encyclopedia, you do not have to find an external source before sharing information. For the avoidance of doubt, Wikipedia's copyright policy and plagiarism guideline do apply here.
