Its not a Wikia policy but rather a U.S law. So they can't really change the policy. That said, COPPA is very hard to enforce as you cannot prove a person's age. If a person says they are 12 one minute and 25 the next, how is anyone to prove which of those if either is correct? Wikia does not have people's birth certificates.
