Legal

This site hosts no local copies of any content, beyond the simple description and cover images. All actual hosting of translated content is outside the purview of wlnupdates.com's administrators, and we have no mechanism for altering anything beyond the content on the wlnupdates.com site specifically. The release feeds are furthermore entirely either user-submitted, or produced by an automated system, and are not manually moderated or managed in any way.

Due to the complete automation of this system, the administrators of this site make NO guarantee whatsoever about the content you may encounter. Browse at your own risk. Care has been taken during the initial configuration of the automated systems, but it is entirely possible that a compromise of a different site could lead to inappropriate or even malevolent content being hosted here, albeit hopefully only for a short period of time before it could be manually moderated.
