Wikis can choose to follow it, but I do not think it is fair for this wiki, considering the nature of AJ. That is true. However, underaged users are more likely to contribute content that is below wiki standards than users 13 and above. Not saying this is always true, as I have seen users of the correct age behave the same way, but my statement still stands.

Besides, there's a lot of content on this wiki users below 13 are likely to view as horrifying. I know we put warnings on pages with sensitive content, but if users who openly admit they are underaged are banned, the likelihood of an underaged user reading articcles with sensitive content is going to drop significanty.

I'm not very active on here, so this really isn't my say. But it's just a recommendation.
