 ====== About Beard Wiki ====== ====== About Beard Wiki ======
-Beard Wiki was set up and soft-launched in August 2016, several months after the official launch of [[https://www.beardprofile.com|Beard Profile]]. +The aim of the site is to provide as much written information about facial hair as possible, from how to groom beards down to how testosterone, [[:dht|dihydrotestosterone]], and androgen sensitivity are highly important factors in growing facial hair.

-Welcome to the Beard Wiki, where all beard-related information is contained. Brought to you by the same people that run Beard Profile, the Beard Wiki takes the same path as the former, but in a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki|Wiki]]-based format and without the social features. +
- +
-**Simply pure knowledge**. +
- +
-Think of the Beard Wiki as an information repository, while Beard Profile is the community portion of the overall network, where most of the user-interaction takes place, with account features and profile photos. +

-===== Beard Blog ===== 
-Other than the wiki itself, beardwiki.com has a [[:blog:index|blog]] that focuses solely on beards as well! In it, we feature tons of tips while growing out your beard, down to good ol' beard banter every now and then. 
- 
-Beard Wiki's beard blog shouldn't be confused with the [[https://www.beardprofile.com/articles|beard articles]] on Beard Profile, as both contain different beard-related information. Some information will naturally overlap, however. 
- 
-===== Want to Help? ===== 
-The wiki is editable by anyone with an account at Beard Profile. Simply send a message to Cemmos on there after you've registered for an account on this site. He will then give you a role to start editing and adding to the wiki. 
- 
-Keep in mind that accounts on beardprofile.com and beardwiki.com are separate. Beard Profile is easy to [[https://www.beardprofile.com/join|join]] and only takes a minute. Here on the wiki, before allowing anyone to edit pages, we make sure you are a member there for accountability reasons. This keeps the information on the wiki safe and not easily spammed, while allowing everyone to know that all of the great beard info on the website comes straight from a reputable beard community.
