Code of Conduct

Hi there! Thanks for visiting The Hardcore Leveling Warrior Guidebook! This page and its various tabs list the wiki policies and rules. Please look over them before editing. We are a constantly growing community and welcome all visitors of Hardcore Leveling Warrior Wiki. Our policies and guidelines have been developed to create an informative and updated encyclopedia for *Hardcore Leveling Warrior*. Please note that all users must adhere to the **FANDOM policy**, a protocol that spans across all Fandom Wikia.

We ask that **all users** respect these rules and policies, and edit in good faith. Hardcore Leveling Warrior Wiki is a welcoming, fun community for civil users who abide by these rules, seek consensus in discussions, and contribute towards the goal of creating a comprehensive, updated database of Kim Sehoon's *Hardcore Leveling Warrior*. Please note that all activity on this wiki is monitored and violations of editing protocol may result in edit reversion. **Recurring offences will incur a warning or block**. Please feel free to contact an admin if you have any questions.

This wiki is first and foremost a webtoon wiki. If an anime or any other medium conflicts with content from the webtoon, the webtoon's version of events is considered to be the canon version.

In case of discrepancies between media, the following order is used to determine canonicity: Official Hardcore Leveling Warrior Webtoon release > Other media.

The Author's comments about character's and other things pertaining to the series on his personal blog, in interviews or on the official Hardcore Leveling Warrior instagram page go in the correct "**Notes and Trivia**" section of that referred to topic.

Please refer to the Manual of Style for editing guidelines.

## General Code of Conduct

* Do not vandalize articles. Doing so will always result in a block.
* Do not create pointless articles, upload invalid images, insert vulgar language, or make racial slurs. If you see one, put delete tag on.
* Respect neutrality and do not jump into another user's dispute. If it doesn't concern you, do not get involved.
	+ Do not only provide one point of view, but all relevant viewpoints as necessary.
	+ Support your article with actual facts.
	+ Use reliable sources.
* Do not advertise other sites on this wiki (includes posting outside links), and do not post spam.
* Do not create articles containing fanon. This wiki deals with the official webtoon content. Fanon materials aren't allowed.
* Plagiarism, in any form, is wrong, and is **strictly prohibited**. We are our own wiki. Do your *own* research and collaborate with your fellow editors to reach the right answer.

## Fandom Set Rules

Fandom has its own rules that are automatically on each wiki. We observe most of them here as well. They are as follows;

1. Edit and create pages! It's a wiki, that's what it's for! But, if you make an edit that is not in good faith (i.e. Trolling edit), you will face a block.
2. **Be civil**. If you are not civil, you will receive one warning. After that, you will be blocked for a length of time based on the nature of the inappropriate behavior.
3. **Obey all rules**. If you do not you will face the consequences of the admins.
4. **Assume good faith**; in other words, try to consider the person on the other end of the discussion is a thinking, rational being, who is trying to positively contribute to the project — unless, and only unless, you have firm, solid, and objective proof to the contrary. Merely disagreeing with you is no such proof. That goes for sysops as well.
5. Particularly, **don't revert good faith edits**. Reverting is a little *too* powerful sometimes. Don't succumb to the temptation, unless you're reverting very obvious vandalism. If you really can't stand something, revert once, with an edit summary something like "(rv) I disagree strongly, I'll explain why in talk." and immediately take it to talk.
6. **No personal attacks!** Don't insult other users (even if they really are or not). Instead, explain what they did wrong, why it is wrong, and how to fix it. If possible, fix it yourself (but see above). If you fail to treat them with respect, you will be administered a one week ban. If you continue, you will receive an automatic permanent ban for harassment.

## Page Comments and Forum Rules

* **No Abuse**: At all. Although we prefer clean language, we generally accept swearing and cursing, but it will not be tolerated if targeted at another user. Zero tolerance also goes for disgustingly sexual/vulgar, blatantly racist or overtly sexist comments.
* **No Flaming**: Try to be polite at all times to users here. Refrain from condescension, hostility or insulting other users just because they disagree with your opinion.
* **No Trolling**: Of any kind... please... even if you feel a user has trolled, let the admins and thread mods deal with it rather than respond in kind. Trolling is basically saying things you know will incite other members until they become annoyed. You are allowed to disagree but do not deliberately bait others as it is an indirect attack.
* **No Spamming**: If a user has asked a question and they have got an answer, there is no need to make fun of them or spam the comment section with things that contribute nothing to anything. If a discussion is over let it lie unless you want to build upon the actual topic.
* **Refrain From Reviving Dead Threads**: This is more common sense than an actual rule, but it still needs to be mentioned. Comment chains and threads that haven't had a reply in a few months can be left alone and are considered dead; in terms of threads, they can be closed by an admin or thread mod. There is generally no need to revive an ancient thread since many who have posted may not be around anymore.
* **Refrain From Repeatedly Cloning Threads**: If you want to post a topic then try to make an effort to see if a discussion was *recently* created about it as your question may have been answered there and you can also build upon an existing discussion with your own insight.
