Rules

This is a list of rules for the wiki as decided upon by the active Moderators and Administrator. This is very much a work in progress. If you have any suggestions for new rules please submit them in the Discussion Tab. If you have a problem with a rule feel free to contact a Moderator. You can check the list of current moderators here

Since starting the wiki, it has grown a lot and its clear we need set rules to ensure the quality of the wiki is maintained. This page is a general guideline to follow whilst posting to the wiki. It also serves as a guide to moderators so they can help the wiki become better.

It is important to note that exceptions can be made to these rules if it generally makes sense. Common sense will always prevail over mindless deletion/banning.

Do not vandalize

To get the easy ones out of the way, this one is pretty blatant. No vandalizing the wiki, that means no edits with the intent of deleting truthful information or generally spamming wiki pages.

Canon

It is important to keep in mind that unless we see something happen in a campaign, it is conjecture and not officially canon. For example, a character might say information about another race, however until we see that proven right that character's comment is not establishing World Lore. In addition, anything said or shown in Behind the Scene videos or streams about what was intended for past campaigns or what we might see in the possible future is also not canon. If you have a question about whether something said is canon or not please feel free to ask a moderator.

Conflicting Canon

If something said or done seems to conflict with pre-established canon, please do not bother the players or Rob, about it. Due to the very nature of Unforgotten Realms Live things can change quickly and are often made up on the spot. As Rob has pointed out, basically any continuity can be explained away with "A Wizard did it". Please keep this in mind and don't argue with the Game Master.

Fan Fiction

We'd like to keep the wiki clean of any fan lore etc. Whilst fan art (with author permission) is okay to post in their relevant sections, for the purpose of ensuring the wiki is accurate so that Rob can use the information in future campaigns if need be, we need to ensure the content is kept accurate.

Fan Art

Fan Art may be uploaded to the wiki is properly credited in the summary. However, fan art may only be displayed on the Gallery page for each page. You can find the link to a character, player, or campaign's Gallery on the bottom of their "Infobox" on the right hand side of the screen. If there is no Gallery yet for the page you want you can create one yourself. If you need help creating a gallery, please feel free to leave a message in the Discussion Tab.

Fan Made Cards

While the creation of fan made cards is encouraged over on the Card Builder page, unless used in an official campaign, users are not allowed to upload their creations here. If you wish to share your creations with others we suggest checking out The Buffalo Wizards subreddit.

Redirects

Mainly for moderators of the wiki, do not redirect the pages listed on the MediaWiki:Pages_To_Not_Redirect page. However, certain pages must not be redirected due to them tieing in with widgets on the wiki. If they get redirected they will cause those widgets to no longer function and as such any redirection that is required should be posted to the Admin_ToDo.
