{{Shortcut|P:PCOMM}}Some communities prefer to remain wholly private and selectively decide who may interact with them. To enforce this, they may decide to restrict who can access ''any'' of their member-on-member communications . Such communities are called "private communities" by Online Communipedia. Note that this does ''not'' apply to communities wherein access to material is granted <u>automatically by an automated system</u> upon some kind of registration or upon acceptance of an invitation (e.g Discord).

Communities that fall under this classification may not have articles created about them. This is both to respect their privacy and avoid unnecessary conflict. Editors may reserve the name of such a community by creating the page and invoking [[Template:Private community declaration]], though it is not required.
