Essential cookies
The rating cookie is strictly functional: it prevents duplicate votes and contains no personal identifiers.
Google Consent Mode
We use Google Consent Mode v2. Until you accept optional cookies, Google tags run in a limited mode: no _ga or ad cookies, but Google may send privacy-safe, cookieless measurement signals. After you accept, the relevant storage types are updated via gtag('consent', 'update').
Managing preferences
Use the cookie banner (“Cookie settings”) or clear site data in your browser. Rejecting analytics/ads does not block wiki content.
