| This is subject to change without notice.
| |
| | |
| We encourage volunteers and community members to help us expand the Wiki. However, there are a couple of guidelines you need to know before editing. These are different from the rules of Roblox, but are still expected to be followed. Maintaining the Wiki is a lot of work. Follow these and we won't have a problem:
| |
| | |
| *Don't edit the Wiki if...
| |
| | |
| **You can't string a coherent sentence together.
| |
| **You have a question to ask, post it on the forum or discussion for that page.
| |
| **You can't spell correctly.
| |
| **You can't use proper grammar.
| |
| **You are otherwise going to make an idiot edit.
| |
| **You don't understand any of the words in this guideline.
| |
| | |
| =='''You will be instantly banned if you...'''==
| |
| | |
| *Break any [http://www.roblox.com/info/TermsOfService.aspx Roblox rules].
| |
| *Call people names.
| |
| *Spam in general.
| |
| *Posting offensive material.
| |
| *Post hacking related messages.
| |
| *Do something we feel is harmful.
| |
| | |
| ==='''Make sure that a similar page doesn't already exist.'''===
| |
| | |
| This is becoming a major problem here. We don't need 50 scripting tutorials or the like. If a similar page already exists, then you don't need to make a new one. If you want to edit a duplicate page, put it as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Subpage user subpage].
| |
| | |
| ==='''Don't make user-place specific pages'''===
| |
| | |
| If you make a page that is about a specific place, person, website (other than Roblox), creation, model, etc, it will be removed. See the [[Player Created]] page for a list of locations to put these things. You can also add these as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Subpage user subpages], but <b>NOT ARTICLES</b>!
| |
| | |
| ==='''This isn't MySpace.'''===
| |
| | |
| No personal pages other than userpages. If you want to advertise your place, post it in the forum, not here.
| |
| | |
| ==='''Evading Bans'''===
| |
| | |
| Any attempt to evade a ban by making a new account will result in a permanent ban. If we catch you, we're banning your main account as well. Don't do it.
| |
| | |
| ==='''Project Pages'''===
| |
| | |
| Do not edit or make these unless you have been instructed to. "Project Pages" have "ROBLOX Wiki:" before the name. Feel free to comment on their discussion pages.
| |
| | |
| =='''Discussion Pages'''==
| |
| | |
| Discussion pages for articles are not meant to be filled with personal drama or conflict. They are <b>only</b> for the discussion of that page. For example, discuss "Planes" on "Talk:Planes". Take care of your personal business and conflicts elsewhere (like your <b>personal</b> user talk page). So, if you have a personal conflict with someone, do not put anything pertaining to that on an <b>article</b> talk page. Name-calling and personal attacks are just as inappropriate on the ROBLOX Wiki as in the ROBLOX game itself.
| |
| | |
| =='''Warnings'''==
| |
| | |
| Warnings and reminders are posted by Sysops on your user talk page. They are not to be removed, moved, or deleted by you.
| |
| | |
| =='''Resolving Conflicts'''==
| |
| | |
| If you have been banned from Roblox Wiki, the Roblox Forum is not the place to cause <b>more</b> conflict, spamming posts, getting angry, etc. If you disagree with your ban, your best bet is to try to resolve your conflict in a <b>mature manner</b>. In other words, throwing fuel on an already existing fire does not help extinguish a fire. Sometimes, if you just wait out a ban and learn from your error, it will do amazing things! ANY and ALL quarrels about bans or 'how stupid the wiki mods are' are to be directed to [http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=8490 MrDoomBringer] in a PM. Posting on the forums about it is quite likely to get your Roblox account banned.
| |
| | |
| =='''Assistance'''==
| |
| | |
| If you need any help, feel free to ask any of [http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=sysop these people.]
| |
| | |
| One more thing. If you're here to cause trouble your account on Roblox will be traced and you will get yourself a ban. So if you just want to be funny don't do it here.
