Occasionally on the podcast, the hosts or guests employ expletives. However they have moved to clean up their language on recent episodes and to go back and bleep our swearing used in past episodes (see SWMLS) in order to make the podcast more family friendly. Here on the Star Wars Minute Wiki, we will endeavor to follow their example when transcribing quotes and the like. Therefore, it is our policy to a) avoid the quote / item if its not hilarious or crucial and b) if it is, replace the potentially offensive word(s) with another and indicate the replacement. For your reference, a simple barometer for 'hilarious or crucial' is if it still makes me laugh out loud after all this time and / or it makes you lean forward in your seat. See [[Star Wars Minute 97: Bank Robbery at Three O'Clock#Quotes]] for an example of this.

Policy on foul language

Occasionally on the podcast, the hosts or guests employ expletives. However they have moved to clean up their language on recent episodes and to go back and bleep our swearing used in past episodes in order to make the podcast more family friendly. Here on the Star Wars Minute Wiki, we will endeavor to follow their example when transcribing quotes and the like. Therefore, it is our policy to a) avoid the quote / item if its not hilarious or crucial and b) if it is, replace the potentially offensive word(s) with another and indicate the replacement. For your reference, a simple barometer for 'hilarious or crucial' is if it still makes me laugh out loud after all this time and / or it makes you lean forward in your seat. See Star Wars Minute 97: Bank Robbery at Three O'Clock#Quotes for an example of this.
