NB Shipping Wiki/Rules

*Reason(s): Only admins can edit to prevent rule addition or removal.*

Even though we are a wiki for shipping Numberblocks, we still have rules. Rules that are **MAJOR** mean that you could get banned for not following them. You get two warnings, and after that if you still don't follow the rules, you will get blocked. If you can prove that it wasn't you, we may let you come back.

## MAJOR crimes

These could get you blocked straight away:

* Swearing (abbreviated, censored or modified swearing allowed UNLESS it's directed to other people)
* Major Vandalism
* Spamming (includes pages, comments, images etc.)
* Not being of age (must be older than 10, we are being nice because most wikis say 13 is the minimum age)
* Giving people computer viruses or harmful links
* Posting NSFW

## MIDDLE crimes

These could get you a strike:

* Disrespect
* Minor Vandalism
* Sockpuppets (Alts are allowed in our wiki, in case of emergencies)
	+ You can't make a second account when you're blocked
* Impersonation
* Begging for admin/mod rights repeatedly if it gets too annoying.
* Stealing art
* Article pages shouldn't have crossover ships. Any ship is allowed (including gay ships) as long as there are only Numberblocks.
* Strike removal without permission
* Adding canon images to fanon pages and vice versa repeatedly
* Major Disrespect (of any user)
* Overreacting WAY TOO MUCH when getting a strike

## MINOR rules

These don't get you a strike at all, but we recommend you still adhere:

* This is an English wiki. Please speak English whenever you can.
* Use good grammar
* We would prefer if you put the smaller number first in a ship (E.g. 3 x 4, 100 x 200)
* Abbreviated, censored or modified swearing: it's allowed, but overall, swearing is still bad.
* Don't be stupid, like making a useless template or improper ship pages.
* Try not to copy templates from the numberblocks wiki, as our css is different from theirs. We've already had problems with them in the past (i.e. invisible pages, broken pictures).
* Ask for help. The Admins/Mods are here to help you, don't be scared.
* Notification Spamming - this hasn't become a threat yet, so it's here currently.

## Shipping Pages

**Always** put the templates like stub, TemplateNeeded and ImageMissing **at the top**.

Then you can place you table of contents (\_\_TOC\_\_)

The format for a page goes like this: Information, Reasons, Gallery, Templates and Trivia

## Galleries

### Fanart Galleries

* Please do *not* add canon or inappropriate content to them.
	+ Inappropriate content includes kissing, (HONK)ual content and etc.
* Don't add pictures that don't apply for example a soda can or a One and Two picture in the Nine and Ten gallery. They will be removed immediately and if you do it 3 times, you'll get a strike.

### Page Galleries

* Only canon content is allowed on those, if you want to add fanon content, go to the gallery pages (if there are for that page).
	+ Wrong content (example biscuits or wrong Numberblocks) will be removed and same rule applies to the fanon galleries.

## User pages

Put strike templates at the top of your userpage.

That's all. (We don't care about your brick wall of templates.)

### Getting rid of a strike

* Rule changes: You can have bureaucrat rights if you're lucky enough for this to happen
* Ask the admin: It might seem scary, but I can assure you that your chances will increase if you are polite and sorry. Saying you're sorry is polite, but it doesn't change the fact that you did it in the first place, so it isn't guaranteed.

## How to get user rights

Be an active contributor and have a decent amount of edits. Bureaucrats will promote you if they trust you enough. You'll receive a coloured username if you wish, or a multicoloured one if you're a bureaucrat.
