Creating a New Page

When creating a new page, it is strongly encouraged to write atleast 1,000 bytes (around 3 paragraphs). Your page will most likely get deleted if it does not live up to this standard. It is also recommended not to write about TikTokers under 50K followers, except if you have explicit permission from the TikToker (although this is not currently a rule).

When writing an article, please make sure to put citations/references.
For more detailed rules, see Rules & Manual of Style.

About TikTok

TikTok or known as Douyin in China, is a video-sharing platform where users can watch videos that are usually around 15 to 60 seconds, owned by the Chinese company ByteDance. TikTok itself is a international version of its original counterpart Douyin.

The social media platform is used to create a variety of short-form videos ranging in length from seconds to 10 minutes, ranging from dance to comedy to education. TikTok was launched in the Chinese market in September 2016, but it wasn't available globally until August 2nd, 2018, when it merged with another Chinese social media service, Musical.ly.

TikTok was founded by the Chinese company ByteDance and debuted in September 2016 as “Douyin” (originally A.me) marketed as a video-sharing social networking service similar to Facebook and Instagram (both of which are banned in China).
