Standards
What this is
Standards explains why WCF publishes standards: keep public discovery usable, reduce fraud, and make offstage behavior more reliable for audiences, venues, and touring performers. Standards govern listings, bios, posters, thumbnails, contact paths, and hosting logistics.
What it is not
Standards are not comedy censorship and not a taste filter. WCF does not judge jokes.
What you can do here
• Start with the umbrella: Fair Play Standard.
• Use front-door rules: Promotion standard.
• Use logistics reliability: Host Standard.
• Understand trust signals: Verification and Verification criteria.
• Understand remedies: Appeals + due process.
Trust / safety note: Trust signals only work when they are clear, scoped, and enforceable with due process.
