Wiki Rules of Conduct

These rules are enforced in order to keep everyone safe. Generally, have common sense, but make sure to read the rules and abide by them.

Also, these rules have been borrowed by the Object Show Fanon Wiki and adapted to fit this wiki.

## All Users

1. **Users need to be over 13 years old.** Any underaged user will be banned from using the wiki until they are of able age.
2. **Do not vandalize.** Vandalism greatly damages pages' developments and we are more than welcome to revert any vandalism, and take actions against anyone that vandalizes, or encourages it.
	* Userpages (ie, profile pages) are off-limits to any editors aside from the home user, unless explicitly stated otherwise by the user.
3. **Do not post non-canon or non-VH-Nerd content.** Any kind of content which has nothing to do with BossTip/any other VH-Nerd show or never happened in the official content will be removed and you will receive a warning. If you want to write fan-made VH-Nerd/BossTip content, please do that on the Object Show Fanon wiki, not here.
4. **Do not spam.** Spam is harmful, and will flood the wiki activity. Spamming also makes it hard to view other contributions made on the wiki.
5. **Do not use profanity.** Profanity is rather disrespectful on this wiki, and you may be blocked as a consequence.
	* **EXCEPTIONS:** Light swear words (like piss, hell, bastard, damn,...) are allowed when not directed at or toward another user.
6. **Do not abuse multiple accounts (sockpuppets).** While blocked, this could extend the length of your block. However for **unblocked** users, sockpuppets are allowed under heavy stipulations.
	* Any sock, for any purpose, must be linked to on the user's main account.
	* Whenever any account is blocked, every sock is blocked indefinitely.
7. **Create an account with an appropriate username.** Referencing sexual messages, hate speech, another contributor, or otherwise hurtful or distracting usernames is prohibited.
8. **Do not excessively backseat moderate people (mini-modding)**. You may tell a vandal to stop once, but if continued, you must tell an admin. This will be over-looked if your actions were in good faith.
9. **Do not reveal personal information about anyone.** Do not reveal anyone's credit card number, social security number, address (where one lives), password, and/or phone number. In case of an accidental reveal, please contact an administrator to remove it as soon as possible.
10. **Do not post adult content into this wiki**. This wiki is meant to be read by people of all ages. Bomb threats, drug use, gore, and pornography will not be tolerated.
	* **Fetish content also falls under this rule.**
11. **Do not discriminate people based on race, creed, color, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, identity, or disability.** This hurts the contributors, and creates social conflicts.
12. **Do not start or be involved in edit wars.** We want the community to get along with each other. Edit warring is when 2 or more users are undoing each other's edits. People who are involved in edit warring (it doesn't matter who started it) will be blocked for a few days. To prevent one, just simply report the situation to an active administrator (if there's one) and just wait for them to sort it out.
13. **Personal attacks and otherwise cruel actions are not allowed.** Whether a user is blocked or not, you have no right to be rude towards them at all.
14. **Do not flame, bait or otherwise intimidate users.** Not only does this create social conflicts between users, but it also makes the user targeted look bad, along with the account responsible for the attack.
15. **Do not harass other users.** Repeatedly pinging, messaging or other unwanted interactions will be counted as harassment, and may annoy the targeted user(s).
16. **Do not use offensive jokes.** Some users may take these jokes personally, and they may be upset by them. If you do joke, specify before a social conflict is created over it.
	* **Triggered jokes are counted towards offensive jokes. Do not use them.**
17. **Do not impersonate other users.** Attempting to use a username, or make edits attempting to mock the targeted user is discouraged, and your account may be blocked indefinitely.
18. **Do not spread rumors or gossip about other users.** Also known as drama, this may flood the wiki activity, and may humiliate the targeted user(s).
19. **You must not be potentially endangering to anyone.** If you are behaving in a way that may be endangering to others, or have previously endangered someone, you are not allowed here, sorry. This is, of course, to keep people safe.
	* **Media made by said people are a no-go as well.** Yes, this includes the Battle for Smash Ultimate renders. Shows made by said people are allowed, but should be contained to their own pages and have a disclaimer put on top.
20. **Try to use English-language content.** This wiki uses the English language, native or learned, at almost all times, day and night. Spamming or using other language content or characters is prohibited in comments, discussions or page edits.

## Fanon works

1. **Please only post fanon content on the Object Show Fanon wiki. This wiki is only for content that actually happened in the source material. If you add Fanon content, the page may be deleted and you will receive a warning.**

### Users with Administrative Powers

1. **Use the powers correctly.**
2. **Be a good example.** As an administrator, not only are you protecting the wiki, you also need to be a good example for other users to learn and become a skilled and responsible staff member.
3. **Follow the promotion rules.**

\*Earning rights is not always easy. To earn it, you must ask one of the bureaucrats in their talk page and not to promote instantly, the requested person will be voted by responses, "Support", or "Oppose". The requested person must have more "Support" responses than "Oppose" responses. If 2 weeks have passed, depended on which votes, the requested person will earn some special rights if they have 60% of the "Support" responses.

* To be a rollback, you must have 75 edits overall, and 30 mainspace edits.

* To be a chat moderator, you must have 200 edits overall, and 75 mainspace edits.

* To be an administrator, you must have 600 edits overall, and 150 mainspace edits.

* To be a bureaucrat, you must have 1,200 edits overall, and 400 mainspace edits.

* Abusing the powers can cause a demotion. This is also the case if they do not follow the rules above.

## Consequences for Breaking the Rules

IMPORTANT: Severe infractions will result in a instant block for a minimum of 1 year.
