It depends on what's being said and the context in which it's being said. Some wikis – usually those about more mature topics – may allow swearing, while other wikis – such as children's topic wikis – may prohibit it entirely. If it is allowed, even then there are limitations; for example, you might be able to use swear words to express your strong love for a topic to someone else, but you can't use them as weapons against others.

Local rules don't dictate everything, though – racism, directing offensive slurs at other users, etc., though, can be considered harassment regardless of the wiki.
