Proposed policies

"No vandalism"

"No edit may be made in a deliberate attempt to violate policy or reduce the quality of the wiki; such edits are considered vandalism. Forms of vandalism include but are not limited to blanking (removing significant and relevant parts of an article), insulting, and spamming (adding irrelevant content for self-promotion or profit). See Wikipedia's policy page on vandalism for a more detailed explanation of wiki vandalism." — Elembis (talk) 03:50, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I think users and clans should have some slack under this policy for edits to their own pages, but I'm not sure that that needs an explanation. — Elembis (talk) 03:50, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Proposed guidelines

None.

Implemented policies

"Don't edit the user and clan pages of others"

"A user page belongs to the user it pertains to, and should not be edited by other users. Likewise, a clan page belongs to the clan it pertains to and should not be edited by any users who are not members of the clan. The only exceptions are edits that consist solely of corrections to grammar, spelling, punctuation, link targets, capitalization, and markup." — Elembis (talk) 03:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Yes, I agree with this policy as it would most likely pre-empt useless revert wars. It should perhaps be noted that the talk pages for user and clan pages are fair game (within reason). The "good faith" exceptions appear to cover everything that I can think of at the moment. --Lint 05:16, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

"No copyrighted content"

"No content (text, images, etc.) may be submitted if it is copyrighted." — Elembis (talk) 03:56, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

  • I tend to agree. The last thing we need is to run into copyright issues. --Lint 05:16, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Implemented guidelines

None.
