#Some pages aren't well-detailed and have barely any information. One of them used to be the LU (biscuits) page, in which there was a dispute over whether LU is a French, Pakistani, or American brand despite it being French due to being part of the culture of Nantes. The page has fortunately since been fixed.

#There was an incident involving the then-contributor of the site Ryulong, and Crash Override Network.

#The admins, bots, and users on the site can occasionally cause problems, such as Bbb23, ClueBot NG, NinjaRobotPirate, Drmies and Materialscientist. Even standard users such as Island92, Serols, and Asher Heimermann also can sometimes cause problems. Some users can be considered unfriendly to some due to their political agendas. Plus, they also sometimes block users over dumb little reasons and the victim user can never defend themselves for any wrongdoing.

Summer dismissed the user's arguments by claiming that being uncredited automatically makes an actor "minor", and therefore, does not belong on a certain film article. She also ignored the user's advice that he got most of the information from the director of the film, thus proving that the names of the actors were indeed sourced.
