World in the Universe Wiki:Rules and Guidelines

Every wiki needs rules to make sure everything is peaceful and orderly. On Wikipedia, there is an Editing Policy that will probably take around 20 minutes to read from top to bottom. At World in the Universe Wiki, there are only three main rules that people need to follow when contributing to this wiki.

1. Be respectful

 * No Cyberbullying or harassment. Anyone who cyberbullies or harasses other editors on this wiki will be given a warning and blocked for one (1) week for their first offense. Anyone who keeps cyberbullying or harassing other editors after the warning will be blocked indefinitely.
 * No Discrimination. Discriminating others based on age, color, race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, nationality, ethnicity, or political ideology is not tolerated at World in the Universe Wiki. Anyone who discriminated will be blocked for one week for their first offense, and will be blocked indefinitely for their second offense.
 * No Vulgar language. Vulgar language will result in a warning for your first offense, and a block for a month for any more offenses after the warning.

2. Use Common Sense

 * Take responsibility for your actions. If you write something hurtful and later delete it, those hurtful words or actions will still be on your digital footprint.
 * Don't add false information. If you want to create a fictional planet, star, or other astronomical object, you can contact Blanding Cassatt or any other admins and propose your fictional planet, star, or other astronomical object, if you are an inexperienced editor. If you are experienced, this wiki is open to anyone, and you can go on to create your fictional planet, star, or other astronomical object. However, if you add outright false information, this may result in a short block.
 * Don't add gibberish. If you add sentences that nobody can understand, you will be blocked.
 * Don't be shy. The admins are friendly on this wiki (we promise).

3. Include, don't exclude

 * Do ask questions if you need help. If someone asks you for help, help them out.
 * This wiki is a free encyclopedia about planets, stars, and other stuff that anyone can edit. If someone makes an edit that you don't like, don't just revert it. If you do revert it, tell why in the edit summary box.

Have fun editing!
