Rules

These are the rules and guidelines for the Future Diary Wiki. Please note that these rules may be subject to change at any time, and you are responsible for keeping up-to-date with them.

General Rules

• Do not vandalize anything on the wiki.
• Do not spam anywhere on the wiki.
  • This includes, but is not limited to, posting gibberish, random letters, comments that have nothing to do with the topic that is being commented on, chain messages, "copypastas," and huge blocks of text.
• Do not edit other users' profiles.
• Do not harass or bully other users.
• Do not advertise.
• No explicit sexual material or gore.
• No excessive swearing.
• Non-admin users should not give warnings to other users. Friendly advice and tips are one thing, but only admins will give out warnings.

Uploading Files

• Do not upload anything that is not going to be used in an article.
  • This includes fan art and other similar works.
• Do not upload duplicate files.
• Do not upload low-quality files.
• Do not upload files with Let's Players faces on them.

Editing Rules and Guidelines

• Read each article in its entirety before editing.
• Do try to be as accurate as possible when editing articles.
• Do your best to use proper grammar.
• Do your best to keep any abbreviations that may be used consistent.
• Do not make the articles redundant.
• Do not create new articles without admin permission.
• Do not create unnecessary/spam articles.
  • If you want to talk about a character or anything of the sort, create a blog post instead.

Chat Rules and Guidelines

• All general rules apply to chat.
• If you are being harassed by another user, or a user is spamming, and no chat mods are present, please take screenshots. Upload them to Imgur or Photobucket, and leave links on a chat mod or admin's wall. Alternatively, you may hold onto the links and send them to a chat mod or admin once they enter via PM.
• If you are roleplaying, please have some common courtesy; e.g. no godmodding, puppeteering, etc.
• The "only admins may give warnings" rule still applies, but is extended to include chat mods.

Forum Rules and Guidelines

• All general rules apply to the forums.
• If there is an issue, please contact an admin as soon as possible.
  • Avoid adding to a problematic situation by arguing, making a big deal out of it, calling names, and so forth. Doing so may land you in trouble as well.
• If you are roleplaying, please have some common courtesy; e.g. no godmodding, puppeteering, etc.
