Line 74:
6.1) Crediting
*When posting someone else's art (fanart, reference art, Picrews, etc) you must credit the artist and link to the original piece/source (even if an art piece has a watermark or signature).
*If the art was made by an anonymous user, link to where the anonymous user submitted it.
*This also applies to using code that you didn't write yourself.
6.2) Respect artists
*Follow artists' terms of services and respect artists' boundaries.
*Do not criticise someone's artwork unless criticism was asked for.
*Do not ask someone for free artwork unless they have offered to create free artwork.
*Do not trace or otherwise steal artwork.
==Wiki-related discourse==
Line 98 ⟶ 91:
7.2) “Discourse” relating to other wiki users is not allowed; users should be reported when necessary, rather than “called out”
*Posts/polls directed at specific users with intent to insult, discredit, "call out," argue with, or otherwise complain about them will not be permitted.
*Do not make posts on the discussions page calling out users for breaking the rules. Instead, use the report feature, and/or contact a staff member directly via their message wall.
*For complaints about a staff member, the Wiki's Bureaucrat should be contacted directly via their message wall or on Discord.
*Absolutely no polls or posts asking individuals to share their opinions on another user.
*Users should not ask for genuine criticism or ask "do you like me" unless they are absolutely sure they can take negative feedback.
If you want to confront another user privately but are uncomfortable doing so or unsure how to proceed, do not take it to the discussions page. Instead, contact a mod or admin privately to ask for help, and they will assist you in confronting the issue in the best way possible, without starting drama.
Line 123 ⟶ 111:
==DNIs==
9.1) Do not breach someone’s DNI unless you are a staff member that needs to have an important discussion with the individual and/or you are reaching out to a staff member for an important matter. If you are found purposefully breaching a DNI, then you will be issued a warning, and if done again, you will receive a temporary ban.
Line 133 ⟶ 121:
10.1) Do not directly ask a user what their triggers are.
*If a user does not list their triggers on their profile, assume they do not want to share them.
*Do not make posts asking users to share their triggers.
10.2) Please refer to this post for more information on what should and shouldn’t be marked with a trigger/content warning: https://lgbta.miraheze.org/wiki/User_blog:ThatAnnoyingDemigirl/Guide_to_the_wiki#Trigger_Warnings
*This applies to any forms of interaction on the wiki, including posts on users' message walls.
==Safeguarding==
11.1) Do not come here for serious medical help, advice, or a diagnosis.
*This site is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Do not attempt to diagnose another individual or give medical advice that one needs to be qualified in order to safely give. Doing so can result in a temporary ban. For example, a post describing one’s symptoms and then asking if other users think you have a certain illness are not allowed.
*Asking about whether you might be alterhuman is allowed. Asking about plurality and whether you might be plural is also allowed, however, asking whether users think you have DID, OSDD or any other disorder is not allowed.
*As long as appropriate trigger warnings are used and any violence is not described in graphic/explicit detail: describing a situation and asking if what you experienced was abuse is allowed. However, you should be cautious with what you reveal about the situation for safety purposes.
11.2) Share experiences and resources safely.
*Users may ask for safe coping strategies and resources as long as the post doesn’t imply that the user will be in immediate danger if they do not receive said advice.
*Users may share experiences as long as they do not imply that any other given user may have the same underlying medical conditions or to try to ask for a diagnosis, etc.
11.3) Safeguarding of littles and age regressors
*If an individual who is mentally under the age of 13 is found interacting on the wiki, they will be reminded of the rule and/or blocked for an hour, for their own safety.
*If this happens repeatedly, and it becomes clear that a user system cannot keep themselves safe, or that a system cannot collectively keep their littles safe, an account may receive a longer block, at the discretion of the wiki's staff members.
*Systems, where a little is fronting while "supervised" by older headmates, will still be held to this rule, however, age dreamers and systems where a little is co-conscious with a headmate who is 13+ years old will not be held to this rule.
==User privacy==
12.1) Keep personal information private.
*If a user would like to post a photo they took, they must censor or crop out their faces, in addition to all personal information shown in the picture or their picture will be deleted. One's entire face must be fully censored, with no exceptions; if one is wearing a face-covering in the image, one should also censor that face-covering.
*No photos containing "landmarks" (eg: historical statues, iconic buildings) that are near where you live, or any other information that could potentially allow others to identify your location.
*Users who are (bodily) under 17 years old may not disclose their exact age, due to safety/privacy concerns. One may say that one is, eg: "a minor", "14-15 years old", "a minor over the age of 16", etc, but one may not indicate an exact age. It is assumed that all users will be bodily aged 13+ in accordance with FANDOM's TOS.
Line 180 ⟶ 154:
13.1) No excessive venting.
*Users should only make one post for general venting per day (in the venting category of the discussions section) and use the reply section of that post to add additional venting throughout the day (for plural users, this may be one post per headmate for general venting per day).
13.2) Posts saying/implying that you are planning/going to commit suicide or otherwise harm yourself will be removed for the emotional wellbeing of all users. Repeating this behaviour may result in your account being blocked.
Line 190 ⟶ 162:
13.4) No guilt-tripping or sympathy “baiting” posts.
*Do not use venting posts as means to manipulate other users. For example: making a post venting about feeling terrible directly after someone criticizes you to garner sympathy, or attempting to guilt-trip staff members for warning/punishing you appropriately.
*Other more minor forms of guilt-tripping may result in posts/comments being deleted and repeated instances of this behaviour may result in a warning. For example, trying to make other users feel guilty for not responding to your post/comment, eg: “reposting because everyone ignores me”.
*No posts with “please reply”/”please respond”/”please read”/"please interact" or anything similar in the title of a post. Do not otherwise pressure/guilt-trip users into interacting with your posts, especially for posts that are likely to be triggering.
==NSFW content/topics==
*Discussion/posts/replies/comments that relate to NSFW topics is allowed as long as it is relevant to the article, a genuine question and/or a genuine response to a question and the main purpose is educational.
*Any discussions relating to NSFW topics must be marked with the appropriate trigger warning(s).
*Discussion of medical topics, intersex variations, or altersex identities is not inherently NSFW.
*NSFW images are not allowed.
The following guidelines are specifically for the discussion section of this site:
==Reposting==
*For any reposting, 30 minutes must pass between each instance of a post being shared.
*One repost maximum: general venting posts.
*Two reposts maximum: most other general posts/polls.
*Three reposts maximum: posts looking for terms/help, venting posts looking for safe, non-medical advice (eg: coping strategies, resources), games.
==Polls==
