    Hi, can Star Wars swear words be included in fanfic or do they have to be censored with asterisks?

    Hi and welcome, @SkyGirl91 ! If you mean things like “kriff,” yes, it’s perfectly fine to use such things in a story without starring them out. It’s only the real-life swear words from our disallowed words list that have to be started out in any kind of post, story or otherwise. Thanks for asking. :)
