Contribution Guide

## Donations to the library

The great library is always open to receiving donations from third-parties, so as long they follow the rules of the library.

### What does the library accept?

The library accepts any ammount of books and contributions as long as they follow the next requirements:

* The donations must be organized by the donator in the correct place and form
* The donations must be related to fantastical worlds
* The donations must follow the format stipulated by the library
* The donations done to a section of another donator, if permited, must have the approval of the donator to be kept
* The donations must not be put into another donators section without previous permission

Be mindful of the following prequisites too:

* The content of the donation may be not entirely safe for work in terms of content, but discretion applies. No images or explicit depictions of gore, violence or sexual activity. A warning note about these kind of contents must be present in the item and item name with the format [Name (TW:Sensitive Content)]. If this is not the case the donation will be reviewed and may be deemed unappropiate.
* The content must not be offensive to any other user, donator or staff of the library. If this is the case the donation will be reviewed and may be deemed unappropiate.

### How can I donate something to the library

* You must place a bookshelf for your donations related to that specific one, then properly organize it in order to maintain the library's status quo
* You can donate as many items as you want, but do so in an orderly manner, if something is suspected to be smap it will be dealt with as such

### What happens if my donation doesn't fit the library?

If a donation is reviewed as unfit for the library, it will be dealt with as follows:

* The donation will be sent to the incineration chamber, depending on the nature of the case the entire bookshelf may be sent along.
* If appealed and approved in due time, the donation may be rescued from the incineration chamber and no further actions will be made
* If not, the donator of the item will be restricted from accessing the library premises again.

## [Meta] Format of a donation

Leaving the roleplay-ish descriptions behind, posts must follow a format to be appropiate to this community:

* Posts must be organized and follow the rules before mentioned
* Posts must be original content and not infringe copyright laws
* All posts must be made in the format of books, but what does this mean?
	+ Posts are organized into shelves, which are organized into bookshelves. The bookshelve must have the name of the world/project and shelves are left for the creator to decide how to be organized
	+ Posts should follow the rule of being implemented in a roleplay-ish manner, this means posts are meant to depict a book that exists in your world and describes aspects of it from inside the world. Be it a book, a manuscript, a scroll or other existing means in your wolrd. This is mandatory as this is the premise of the community, however how are the books written/organized inside your world is up to you. You may find existing examples in the library.
	+ Any post or section of a post that doesn't follow the roleplay for a good reason can be made with a [Meta] tag before its name (Take as example this section). This is in order to preserve the immersion that is sought in the format.
* Communities can allow others to contribute by adding an [Open] tag in the bookshelf name, but also they are required to have a meta post with either rules or explanations on how to make these contributions.

*Comments in a page and message wall posts are always [Meta], use them to inquire and engage freely.*
