The Kingdom of Arthuria Wiki:Wiki rules

'''All commenters and contributors, regardless of privileges, are expected to have read and understood the rules and FANDOM's terms of use. Failure to abide by either can result in a temporary or permanent block, especially if multiple rules are broken or if the same rule is broken multiple times. Ignorance is not an excuse.'''

Note that these rules may be changed at any time, though rules will not be added or removed without a good reason behind such. If you intend on being active on this wiki, it is recommended that you follow this page so that you can stay up-to-date on the wiki rules.

Social Rules

 * 1) Keep it civil: Do not make personal attacks on any individual. Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated, nor will any form of bullying (including and especially encouraging self-harm or harm towards others). Such content is a violation of FANDOM's terms of use; thus, any posts or comments breaking this rule will be deleted, and the user will be blocked at least temporarily. No exceptions.
 * 2) Avoid arbitrary self-promotion: This wiki is not a platform for advertising your social media accounts. Keep self-promotion to your personal profile unless it is somehow relevant elsewhere. Also note that advertising businesses on this site is a direct violation of FANDOM's terms of use.
 * 3) Do not pester other users: If someone asks you to not post certain content to their wall, respect their wishes. It's their wall, not yours. Chain comments (i.e. any comment that encourages you to repost it elsewhere) and other forms of spam are also a violation of this rule, even if they aren't targeting any one user. All comments found to be spam will be deleted.
 * 4) Do not "mini-mod": With the level of traffic this wiki currently gets, I don't expect mini-modding to become an issue, but I prefer to cover my bases. A mini-mod is a user that, despite not being an admin or mod themselves, takes it upon themselves to push the rules and tell other users how to conduct themselves instead of leaving it up to the mods. On this wiki, mini-modding is considered to be a form of bullying, so anyone found to be mini-modding will be blocked at least temporarily without exception. The context does not matter. Mini-modding includes, but isn't limited to, the following:
 * 5) * Telling other users what not to do, whether in comments or welcome messages. On this wiki, users are considered innocent until proven guilty, so please don't assume they need to be told what not to do right off the bat (after all, that's what this page is for!). If you believe someone is breaking a rule, politely and calmly inform them that their actions may be against the rules; if appropriate, also explain what proper conduct consists of. If you do not wish to do this, or they continue to break the rules, report them to an admin or moderator with the appropriate information, and we'll take action accordingly.
 * 6) * "Ganging up" on users for breaking a rule. If someone else has already warned a user that their behavior is against the wiki rules, don't repeat them. If you notice after informing a user that someone else has beaten you to it, please apologize. Once is more than enough.
 * 7) * Arguing with trolls. In this context, trolls are users that deliberately (and often blatantly) break rules with the intent to make other users upset. They may even "call out" other users that they know will get riled up. Don't try to "fight" them; that's exactly what they want. Best to quietly report the troll with FANDOM's "report" option.

Creation Rules
These rules are more for anyone hoping to contribute, though admins and mods are expected to follow them as well.
 * 1) Proofread your work: Always, always  ALWAYS  proofread your work before publishing! Perfect grammar is not expected, and mistakes are inevitable, but it's hard to excuse having several errors in one paragraph (or one sentence!) and it may be considered vandalism. Most browsers have a spellchecker built in, so use that to your advantage!
 * 2) Keep it professional: Use of "chatspeak" or "leetspeak" on pages is not allowed under any circumstances, as it makes pages unprofessional and hard to read. This doesn't mean you can't use chatspeak in comments or forum posts.
 * 3) Keep it PG-13: Yes, the world of Arthuria is a violent one. Yes, sex demons are part of Arthuria's lore. No, those aren't excuses to post excessive gore or lewd/NSFW content directly onto the wiki.
 * 4) This wiki is not a "fan dump": This rule may change in the future as the wiki gets added to more; however, for now, if you want to make drastic edits to the wiki (including making pages for new characters, etc.), ask an admin or moderator first. If you aren't an admin/mod and don't have permission from one, any drastic edit you make will be considered vandalism without exception. The following are NOT considered drastic edits:
 * 5) * Any edit that fixes spelling, grammar, or formatting mistakes, or otherwise "cleans up" a page.
 * 6) * Any edit that adds missing relevant categories, or removes irrelevant categories.
 * 7) * Any edit that undoes obvious vandalism (for example, deleting a page's contents and replacing it with the word "pog" is clearly vandalism).
