- Keep it civilDo not make personal attacks on other people. If you need to criticize another user's argument, do so without attacking them as a person. Do not use bigoted language, including slurs which degrade another person or group of people based on gender, race, sexual orientation, nationality, religion, etc.
- Be a productive member of the wikiContribute to the wiki in line with the established processes, policies, and conventions.
- Follow the community's guidelines for formattingRead the wiki's manual of style, the image and file-naming policy, and the spoiler rules and adhere to them.
- Need help?Ask an administrator or moderator if you have any questions about editing, page creation, formatting, templates, or anything else related to this wiki. We're happy to help.
- Do not engage in excessive self-promotionA wiki is a collaborative community resource for the topic at hand. It is NOT a free place to advertise your related website, YouTube channel, blog, social media account, etc.
- Do not harass other usersIf somebody asks you to stop posting certain content on their wall, respect their wishes. It is their wall.
- Do not start or participate in edit warringDisrupting the wiki with edit warring over differing opinions of a topic or what an article should contain with another user or group of users is not productive. Start a discussion with the other user(s) on their message wall, the article's talk page, or the wiki's discussion board instead and try to find a conclusion. When reverting, be sure to explain your reasons in the edit summary. Always assume good faith and be patient, especially with new editors.
- Do not vandalizeVandalizing articles, including blanking pages, removing useful parts, repeated reverting, adding unrelated stuff, speculation, personal comments, slurs, or swearwords will lead to your account being blocked.
- No AI-generated contentDon't use large language models like ChatGPT or similar services to create or summarize content. AI-generated content in articles will be reverted or the article deleted. Repeatedly doing so will lead to a block.
- Do not make new categoriesDon't create new categories without first talking to the wiki administration. We use a very fine tuned system of categorization on this wiki, with lots of automation going on behind the scene. If you think that a new category is needed, please discuss it with an admin first.
- Do not revert edits made by admins or moderatorsIf you disagree with their edit, talk to them on their message wall in a civil way. Repeatedly reverting edits of wiki staff members will lead to a warning and ultimately to a block.
Note that this does not mean you cannot correct, improve, or optimize their edits. - Do not edit other user's profile pageUserpages, including their subpages, are considered that user's personal page. If you think something on a user's profile pages is against the rules, contact an administrator.
An exception of this might be to fix broken links to articles or images that have been moved or deleted.
