DOORS Wiki:Rules

WIKI RULES

---

These are the general rules for the DOORS Wiki. These will help users better understand what is and isn't allowed on the Wiki. Following these will help keep the wiki more organized and helpful for new members. If you have any issues or questions, contact an Administrator or Bureaucrat through their FANDOM profiles or the Wiki Discord Server.

As this wiki is a part of the Roblox Interwiki Project, any offenses in other wikis of this project may be also issued on this wiki. This also works vice versa, where any offenses in this wiki may be issued on other wikis of the project.

In the case where you want to appeal your block sentence, but a message hasn't been provided to your message wall to respond to, please refer to the responsible staff member's Community Central message wall and make a message with your appeal.

Main Rules

Do note that these rules are handled on a case-by-case basis by moderators. The consequences will not be exact as each violation suggests, they're depending on the severity and/or frequency. We do not accept attempts of finding and using loopholes around our rules.

Light Offenses

Violation	Description	Consequence
Editing others' user pages without productive reasoning.	The only times editing user pages is allowed are taking care of maintenance work or marking pages of blocked users for deletion (this must be mentioned in the edit summary, as to prevent confusion). "Free edit zones" count as part of this violation.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Creating fanon or off-topic content.	Our scope of the DOORS Wiki is to document all canon details about the videogame and its relations, fanon content excluded. To post fan content, go to the endorsed fanon wiki.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Not abiding the Project:Manual of Style.	Intentionally going off your personal style that goes against the wiki's style isn't tolerated for the purpose of consistency between articles.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Misusing or creating meaningless page categories.	Please see the categories we've set up and use them appropriately. They should only be used on articles and templates, not blog posts or other namespace pages.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Making discussion posts that solicit upvotes or are considered non-sensical.	Low-effort posts may include but are not limited to: "your #th image in your gallery is #" posts, entity-c han posts and any other unrelated topic to DOORS.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Replying to a discussion post that's older than a month, alias necroposting.	If your posts have been left unanswered after a month's period, make a new post instead.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Making discussion posts that contain Zalgo.	Zalgo is not allowed on our wiki as it creates formatting issues and lags handheld devices.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.
Mini-modding other users	Mini-modding is when a user takes it upon themselves to attempt to warn users who break the rules, threatening users who break the rules with further punishments or blocks if that user continues the behaviour that instigated the mini-modding. Users shouldn't take on the responsibilities of staff, any concerns and rule breaking should be brought up to Discussions Moderators or higher staff members.	Warned, blocked appropriately if repeated.

Moderate Offenses

Violation	Description	Consequence
Vandalism of any kind performed on articles.	Making edits that only aim to be harmful or unproductive will be rolled back, such edits commonly being complete content removals and/or writing gibberish spread across the article.	Blocked with a minimal duration of 3 days.
Edit warring.	Defined as editing over a person's change repeatedly with no hope of discussion between one another.	Blocked with a minimal duration of 3 days. The other involved person will receive the same punishment.
Not providing credits to the artist and claiming your artwork as your own.	To post artwork that isn't yours to wiki discussions, you must have permission from the creator and appropriately credit them in the post. Please state whether or not you've made your artwork or not to prevent confusion.	Blocked with a minimal duration of 3 days.
Harassment/slandering of other users.	Be open-minded and respectful during discussions with other users.	Blocked with a minimal duration of 7 days.
Usage of vulgar language or slurs.	This wiki is required to comply with COPPA and KOSA, as the wiki is hosted by Fandom, Inc. and is hosted within the United States of America.

Making discussion posts with suggestive content and/or undertone.	Adult rated content may include but is not limited to: NSFW/NSFL media, graphical violence, drugs, and gore. "Punishment wheel" posts are included due to their potential encouragement of inappropriate acts with users.	At the discretion of the moderator.
Making pages about unofficial game leaks.	Documentation of leaks that reveal the game's unreleased content and/or concepts that aren't endorsed by the game developers are disallowed, no matter how credible the person that's initially publicized it is.	At the discretion of the moderator.

Severe Offenses

Violation	Description	Consequence
Breaking FANDOM's Terms of Use and Community Guidelines or violating the COPPA or KOSA acts.	This violation covers a lot of scenarios that involve sensitive information and/or behavior, such as: being underage, soliciting any personal information from underage/teenaged users and harassing users across wikis. Please have a read over both articles to ensure you're not accidentally breaking a rule.	At the discretion of the moderator.
