Editing Policy
These are some basic editing guidelines that everyone should follow on Wikizone 2100:
- Don't post spam and don't vandalize pages. See Blocking Policy.
- Images and videos uploaded to the wiki should comply with the Image Policy and the Video Policy respectively.
- Before making a new page, search thoroughly and make sure that a similar page doesn't already exist. For example, a page titled Project should not be created, because there's already a page called The Project on the wiki where the Project can be described in detail. See also: Creating a Redirect
- Before publishing edits, always 1) write a brief description of your edit in the Edit Summary window at the upper-right corner of the screen and 2) click "Preview" to make sure the edit looks good.
- Use correct spelling and grammar. Don't use vulgar language.
- Don't put opinions, rumors, guesses, fanfiction, or anything that is not related to Warzone 2100 on pages. (You could post them on your blogs though.) Only relevant facts.
- Write using the third person narrative. Basically, this means don't use words like "I" or "you."
- English language only. None of us can moderate what we don't understand. If you want to write pages in a different language, then you may want to go to some other Warzone 2100 wiki that is written in that language, or create one yourself. (We could have such a foreign-language wiki as a partner.)
