Making a page to coin a term and having it be the original/only source of coining is '''not acceptable.''' Wiki pages shouldn't be used for this. Wikias are aggregates of information, '''not''' sources of them. Wiki pages are not social media and shouldn't be used as original posts. A coining post can be made in the forums, on Tumblr, or on nearly any other site.
In the instance that a term has been coined by making a Wiki page, the edit history for that Wiki page that includes the page's creation can then be used as a source. '''However, this is generally disallowed on The Ezgender Wiki, and coining terms through making a page should be met with the same treatment as breaking another rule of the Wiki.'''
'''As a general rule: If Wikipedia wouldn't allow it as a source, neither would we.''' Users who create pages with unacceptable sources (who don't acknowledge that the page needs a source through adding appropriate templates, like CitationNeeded or CleanUp) may be met with the same treatment as breaking another rule of the Wiki. This includes a polite first warning, blocks from editing if the behavior continues, and potentially longer blocks or banning.
==== Acceptable Sources ====
[https://ezgender.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000031526 A tutorial and masterlist of common sourcesources is here]. This is not a complete list, and users can cite (nearly) any website or published piece of media. In general, you should feel free to make your own judgement on whether or not a site is trustworthy enough to be cited as a source.
Tumblr or Wiki forum links are acceptable sources (for example), but [https://web.archive.org/save web archive] [https://archive.is/ or archive.is] links are ''greatly'' preferred to help preserve content, and we encourage archiving any links you might add to an article, especially original coining posts. If you don't have a link at the time of editing a page, adding [[Template:Cleanup]] and specifying what the page needs is acceptable. Repeatedly creating articles with no sources (and no usage of the templates mentioned previously) may result in temporary bans.
