Kiznaiver Wiki:Policies & Guidelines

This article describes the Policies and Guidelines for the  and contains information set as the guidelines for the behaviour we expect from users on this wiki. These rules are subject to change at any time without prior notice.

General Ruleset

 * Do not vandalize articles. Doing so will almost always result in a block.
 * If you see blatant vandalism that has not yet been reverted, please by all means feel free to revert it yourself; it isn't necessary for you to report to an admin unless it is a severe case or something you cannot revert yourself.
 * Do not create pointless articles or upload unrelated images. If you wish to create any article at all, it may be preferable to consult an admin before doing so.
 * Do not create articles containing fanon material, or edit non-canon information into existing articles. The content of this wiki should strictly be from the series' canon manga and anime.
 * Do not advertise other sites on this wiki. The only links we accept are ones to official sources relating to the series, and ones to the affiliated Discord server & Subreddit.
 * Respect neutrality and do not jump into disputes between other users. If it doesn't concern you, do not get involved.
 * Do not start discourse with other users. If you disagree with something a user has done, calmly talk it out with them on their message wall.
 * Do not use vulgar language such as slurs, curse words or other words and phrases that are widely considered rude on articles or in comments/on message walls. Users will likely face a block for this offence depending on the severity and context of what they say.

Language

 * The content of this wiki must be expressed in English. This is an English language wiki and all edits are expected to be carried out in accordance to this.
 * The sole exception is the use of Japanese related to titles of content such as characters, episodes, and any other piece of determining content in the series.
 * Per the ruleset above, the use of profanity, slang, and euphemisms in articles is not permitted, unless it is used under the context of direct quotes from characters.
 * Content should be written using a third-person perspective and in a factual and formal manner without opionated or biased statements.
 * Articles must all be written in present tense for the purpose of consistency.

Images and Media
*These images may be permitted if they are strictly used to decorate your user profile, in which case the User Images category must be added to them to prevent them from being deleted.

When you upload an image to this wiki, please provide the minimum necessary information:
 * Filename: Please pay heed to the following two schemes when naming files.
 * Files used to decorate world and character articles should be named to outline key elements that occur in the image. Such images shouldn't be used in galleries and should stay solely on these pages.
 * Files that only belong in galleries and non-character articles such as episode previews, chapter covers and illustrations, have specific naming schemes. If you're uploading one of these such files, please use similar ones as a reference for what you should name it, or contact an admin if you're still unsure.
 * Licensing: The fair use template should be added to every image you upload that is from an official source. It can be added by selecting 'Fair use' in the dropdown licensing menu below where the file is renamed, or through manually editing it in by adding Fairuse to its file page.
 * Categorization: After you upload a file, please add the appropriate categories to it via the button at the bottom of the page, or via the Source Editor. These categories should include which characters are in the image, and which chapter/episode you took the image from.

Consequences
If a user goes against the rules stated here, they will receive punishment for it. There isn't currently a set guideline as to exactly what punishment a user will receive due to the small size of this wiki, but it will most likely go as follows: For severe cases, such as slur use or major vandalism, a user may be blocked immediately without receiving a warning beforehand. This will also be the case for users (usually trolls) who edit the wiki with no clear intention of following the rules from the beginning.
 * 1) First Offence: Warning or explanation in reversion edit summary.
 * 2) Second Offence: Message wall warning.
 * 3) Third Offence: 3 month block.
 * 4) Fourth Offence: Permanent block.

These rules are based off the Shield Hero Wiki and the Kimetsu no Yaiba Wiki's policies.
