"The Wiki is Risky"
I was going to the new Wiki page, and Macafee(a computer thing that keeps you safe online) stopped me, saying that the page was “Risky.”
Is this just because a lot of changes are going on on the new Wiki, or is there really something wrong?
(I'm posting this on a different computer then usual, if that has anything to do with it.)

"The Wiki is Risky"
Thats weird, I have McAfee and it isn't saying the new wiki is “risky.” Is it still doing it, or did it only happen once? i know that sometimes McAfee has labeled harmless sites like youtube “risky” before for me, so its probably fine.
sorry for horrible wording. its early right now.

It's probably just the antivirus acting up or something.

Yeah, thats what McAfee is, no? It's probably just the antivirus acting up or something.
McAfee is pretty awful so theres that. The webpage is safe - McAfee probably doesn't like because it's not registered in their database (the website is only a few weeks old) and “.info” websites are pretty rare/sketchy.

McAfee's always acted up with the other language wikis; and since the English Scratch Wiki has moved over to that domain, it acts up too.
I'm going to assume it's due to the fact that the wiki is both a .info site and is based primarily around user-generated content. You could technically put links to viruses easily (though they'd be removed practically immediately).
Also it's probably not in the list of trusted McAfee sites like other wikis such as Wikipedia may be.
