Grey Zone Wiki:Rules

Welcome to the Grey Zone Wiki. While on the wiki, there are rules that are expected to be followed.

## General Rules

1. **No Harassment**: Harassment will not be tolerated in this wiki. Incidents will result in a block and repeated incidents will result in a long block, potentially indefinite if such behavior is a pattern.
2. **Avoid Edit Warring**: Edit warring is the act of repeatedly making edits to undo other edits and will result in a block.
3. **No Vandalism**: Do not vandalize our wiki. Examples include deleting large portions of an article's text without permission or changing an article's categories just to get a character approved/disapproved here. It will result in a long (possibly indefinite) block.
4. **No Plagiarism**: Do not plagiarize other articles. Make writing in your own words and cite sources when appropriate. Plagiarizing will result in a block.
5. **Avoid Stubs**: Try to avoid creating stub pages. Creating a stub page will result in a warning, and if such behavior is extreme (spamming multiple stub pages at once) or continuous (habit of making stub pages) will result in a block.
6. **Do not Spam Edits**: Do not spam minor edits, such as spelling mistakes or adding one category per edit. This will result in a warning or block depending on severity and history of edit spams.
7. **Do not Spread Misinformation**: Accidents happen, and we are happy to inform other users about information that they do not know about. However, intentionally saying false information, especially related to potentially life-or-death topics like healthcare, will result in a block.
8. **Wiki Expectations:** As a wiki, rules are necessary to make sure that people don't disrupt the wiki or others.

## Grey Zone Specific Rules

1. **General:** Characters who obviously meet the criteria of being in the grey zone must qualify. As Heroes or villains who aren't Grey zone and just fail the standards don’t qualify here unless they are in the grey area.
2. **No PGs or PEs** Pure Good/Evil is not allowed onto here for obvious reasons. With the most disqualified examples being Like Connie from *Steven Universe* or Kaede from *Danganronpa* who are Pure Good heroes or Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear from *Toy Story* or Joker from DC who are Pure Evil.
3. **No NPGs or NPEs:** Even if a character is not marked as Pure Good/Evil or they are rejected from Pure Good and Pure Evil and even Near Pure Good/Evil. They have to meet the anti-heroic/anti-villainous criteria obviously lacking the traits of a traditional hero who is admirable and incorruptible or villains who are heinous and irredeemable. Characters like Mr. Incredible who is Near Pure Good or PAL from Mitchels Vs. Machine or Light Yagami from the film series who are Near Pure Evil.
4. **IA and IH rules:** Some Inconsistently Admirable and Inconsistently Heinous characters who’s preventions are being anti-heroic/anti-villainous and being in the grey area can qualify onto here like Gumball Watterson or Zuko. But, characters like SpongeBob SquarePants obviously cannot qualify here.
5. **HB or VB rules:** Heroic Benchmarks or Villainous Benchmarks can be allowed here so long as they show Grey area moments.
