 PREAMBLE  

I, TurtleShroom, acting on behalf of the Users of the Club Penguin Fanon Wiki, in an Attempt to Encode and Preserve this Government and this Site's Mandates in an entertaining- for TurtleShroom -manner, and acting on the belief of Austin8310 and others that the previous organization of Policy stinks, hereby establishes this Constitution and its Bylaws for the Purpose of Recognizing, Reorganizing, Cementing, Stabilizing, Sorting, and Assembling the Government and Rules of the Database. I hope that this Constitution will create an easier and more structured Code of Conduct and to provide greater activities, storytelling, cooperation, and communication of these Rules between the Masses and the BOSS.
