This was our first ever Club Penguin Wiki Council meeting. Originally, Hat Pop, Sharkbate, Tigernose, Cp kid and PenblooeR were part of the council users list, but they did not show up. Andrew, Iamred and Sk8rbluscat took their spots.

Self photos

The proposed change would change the privacy policy to allow users to upload images of themselves as long as if they are 13 or older. This is because by signing up, they agree with network policy that they are at least 13 years of age. The decision to upload photos of themselves are also up to the user to decide and not others.

Remove userpage image "rule"

This idea would benefit users in which they are able to place as many images on their own userpage as they wish, whether or not they are related to Club Penguin or not, and as long as it's a reasonable amount.
