Fiction Faction Wiki:Rules

This wiki follows the same rules as the Authors’ Academy Wiki. However, there is a difference in terms of what sort of content we allow here. Please read this page thoroughly.

Rules
All penalties for breaking them will be delivered on a case-by-case basis by our moderation team.

1) No underage users.

 * This wiki is for ages 13 and up. This is not our rule, but Fandom’s rule. You certified you were at least 13 when you signed up for an account.
 * If it is found you are under 13, you will be banned until you are 13. For example, if it is revealed you are 11, you will be banned for two years.

2) Be kind.

 * Discrimination or hate speech of any kind is NOT permitted. This wiki is a safe space for everyone and we are going to keep it that way.
 * Do not harass other users.
 * Do not leave harsh or uncalled for criticism on other users’ pages or art. We’re here to grow as creators, not to tear each other down.
 * Some users may not want criticism at all, and you must respect that.
 * When a user does want criticism, you must offer it kindly. This is a free writing site, not a publishing firm. To give good critiques, you point out not only what they need to improve but also what they’re doing well.

3) Follow powerusers' instructions.

 * If you are asked to stop doing something, stop immediately.
 * Do not remove warnings from your message wall.
 * Do not attempt to evade a ban with alternate accounts.
 * Do not mini-mod. If you see rule-breaking content, report it and don’t attempt to do the mods’ job for them.

4) No NSFW content.

 * Do not post pornographic content or other sexually explicit material.
 * No graphic images.
 * No links containing explicit content.

5) No uncensored profanity.

 * All profane words must be censored (example: sh*t).
 * “Hell” and “damn” do not need to be censored, as they are considered mild.
 * You may say “lmao” and “wtf” and other abbreviations.
 * Office-safe swear words (ex: frick, crap, darn) are allowed.
 * “Bastard” is not considered a profane word, and neither is “piss.”

6) Use content warnings when necessary.

 * If your story contains blood, gore, swearing, or generally upsetting content, include a warning at the top of the page.
 * Minor blood spatters are allowed in art, provided you include a warning.

7) Be a responsible editor.

 * Don’t spam.
 * Don’t vandalize.
 * Don’t create pointless pages.
 * Don’t edit pages that don’t belong to you, unless you’re adding categories. Altering other users’ content is disrespectful to them as creators.
 * Don’t create main categories. The only category you may create is your personal content category, which follows the naming convention of Content (Full Username) [example: Content (TurquoiseEmber)].

8) Use the discussions forums appropriately.

 * Don’t spam.
 * Don’t “necropost,” or post on old threads. A thread is considered old once it has been inactive for two weeks.
 * This excludes official threads linked in the navigation bar. Last Post Wins, the vent/support thread, and the Writing Club are always okay to post on, even if they haven’t been active for a while.
 * Don’t post on private chat threads that aren’t meant for you.
 * Report any rule-breaking posts.
 * Don’t interact with trolls. Report them to the mods and carry on as normal.

9) Do not plagiarize.

 * If we find you are stealing content from other writers, whether or not they’re on our site, the page will be deleted and you will receive a warning. Continued plagiarism will result in a block.
 * Do not take credit for someone else’s art or images.
 * “Credit to the artist” is not a credit. Either find the artist or don’t post the picture.

10) Be safe.

 * Do not share your full name, address, phone number, etc. Remember, once something is online, you can't take it back — so share wisely.

And that's it! Enjoy your time here, but please obey these rules all the while.

Content Policy

 * All wiki content must follow the rules listed above.
 * Pages must be meaningful contributions to the wiki.
 * Short pieces, such as haikus, must go on blog posts, unless they’re part of a larger collection.
 * You may post anything creative. This means original stories, poetry, fanfictions, art galleries, comics, original character profiles, fan theories, headcanons, and anything else you can think of. If you’re unsure if your page is allowed or not, ask a poweruser.
 * If you want a page of yours deleted, contact a poweruser. Don’t just blank the page, as empty pages clutter the wiki.

Empty or mostly empty pages will be deleted as to avoid clutter.
