Rules & Guidelines

* Keep profanity/cursing/swearing to a minimum and censor it in some way please. **(Eg. use abbreviations such as wtf or censor curse words like; F\*ck, Sh\*t)**
* Do not bully or hate on another user for any reason.
* If some other user is breaking rules or is behaving in a manner that has you uncomfortable bring it up in the "**Complaints & Reports**" category in Discussion and if found necessary that user will be banned.
* Keep things fairly PG13 or at the very least try to be subtle and use your discretion.

### **Page Editing Rules**

#### **CONTRUCTIVE PAGE EDITING vs VANDALISM**

* Please make any change done to a page for a legitimate reason. **As in adding; canon information, missing information, or fixing mistakes**
* Make sure to fact check any additions/changes in information you plan to make and be completely sure the changes you are making are correct to avoid misinformation.
* If you are unsure about a potential change that may need to be made you can post about it in the "**Fact Checker"** category in Discussions.
* No spamming or trolling in pages please. Do not purposely put nonsense or incorrect information in pages.
* Some stories may tackle serious/TW themes, but please try to use discretion putting those things in detail. **Eg. Do not add any overly gruesome or vulgar words, heavy descriptions of violence/adult themes or images depicting gore/NSFW to pages.**
* Any page that may mention any TW related things regardless of how severe or subtle must have a clearly visible warning of such at the top of the page.
* If you are adding fanart to a page gallery that is not your own art please be sure the person who made that art is okay with it being placed in and make sure to put the credit to that artist.
* PLEASE DO NOT PURPOSELY VANDALISE PAGES! IT IS REALLY MEAN TO KNOWINGLY DESTROY THE HARD WORK OF OTHERS!!
* IF YOU ARE FOUND TO BE PURPOSELY SABOTAGING THE WIKI, YOU. WILL. BE. BANNED. And we'd really hate to do so. :'(

#### **CREATIVE FREEDOM/DESIGN UNDECIDED in character pages**

* Any undetailed AU character page with **[CREATIVE FREEDOM/DESIGN UNDECIDED]** at the top of the page is open for anyone to create concept designs for said character and submit those designs to that character's concept gallery.
* Some may also need backstories or personalities.
* Most characters will at least already have a basic description of theme/role they may play in the AU done by JAUB or Saritsu for reference on what the design should be based on. And at most may already have a backstory or personality. If any of these fields on the character page are empty then feel free to try and make a compelling personality you think may fit them in the AU as well.
* If you want your design to potentially become the official design for the particular AU character, please post about it in the **"Character Concepts"** category in the Discuss section.
* Once an official design for that AU character is decided upon the **[CREATIVE FREEDOM/DESIGN UNDECIDED]** in the page description will be removed.
* The creator of that official design will be credited as the character's creator of course.
* All other designs will also be credited to who made them and can either remain in the concept gallery as a tribute to concepts or the person who created them is free to decided to remove their character from the AU/gallery.
* IF YOU WANT TO MAKE AN OFFICIAL CHARACTER FOR ONE OF THE AUS, IT WOULD BE VERY MUCH APPRICIATED IF YOU KNOW YOU WON'T TRY TO RETRACT THEM FROM THE AU LATER ON! IT IS OF COURSE YOUR RIGHT TO WITHDRAW YOU CHARACTER DESIGN IF YOU WANT TO, BUT ONCE THEY'VE BEEN INTERGRATED INTO THAT AUS STORY IT WILL BE TROUBLESOME TO HAVE TO REPLACE THEM. SO PLEASE BE CERTAIN ABOUT ADDING THEM TO THE AU IF THAT CHARACTER IS CHOSEN!! TwT

### **Adding New AUS not made by JAUB or Saritsu**

* Community members may add their own AU variants that hold some kind of relation to the ones in this wiki. **(Eg. Creating Fell/Swap/Outer/Etc variants of preexisting Aus from this wiki)**
* New Aus and AU characters must in some way relate to JAUB's Canonverse and the Aus in it to be accepted in this wiki.
* If you add your own related AU to this wiki, please understand that it will also fall under all the same rules and can not be made to be a personal thing that only you can edit.
* You of course have the rights to your variant AU and the information in it, but as long as it is part of this community please let it be open to everyone to enjoy and share ideas about. Do not make a problem out of others wanting to discuss the AU with you.

### **Discussion Categories**

The purpose of each category in the community discuss section.

**General**

* Normal debates about miscellaneous stuff involving the community, Undertale, or Aus can go here.
* Anything that doesn't really feel like it fits into other categories.

**For Fun**

* Just like the title says, all fun topics go here.

* Share your design ideas for Undertale AU characters here.
* If you want to potential have your character made the official canon variant for that AU, put something along the lines of "Possible Official Design for [Character Name].
