## Guidelines

These are the guidelines that are enforced by administrators and FANDOM. You will be blocked if you break any of these rules.

* No spamming nor vandalism
* No bullying (if someone is bullying you, please tell an admin and show us a link to where that person is bullying you)
* No personal information (your age, time zone, and which country you live in don’t apply, but family info, your real-life crisis, and other private info is prohibited)
* Zero tolerance for NSFW content (Do not post NSFW stuff, including: porn, shock images, or sexual themes. This includes but limited to usernames, avatars, sponsors, memes, jokes, references, posts that show violence, and other unsuitable topics ​or implied content. If you aren't sure if an image is acceptable or not, please ask an administrator)
* No racism, sexism, homophobia, biphobia, or transphobia; every user and creation of a racer deserves equal rights
* If you are a blocked user and return on a new account, your posts and messages will be deleted and your alt account(s) will be blocked

### If you break the Guidelines

* You will receive one warning message on your message wall. This is a **one strike** policy, if you break the Guidelines again, you will be permanently blocked. If the situation is highly threatful, then you will be permanently blocked without a warning.

## Community Rules

These are the rules that are enforced by the administrators of this wiki. You will receive a warning or a block depending on the situation.

1. Do not make more than two backup accounts
	* Also, if you are to create 1-2 backup accounts for personal gain, it is considered sockpuppetry.
2. Do not make any non-indycar related things, we have separate wikis for those. (see main page for more info)
3. Swearing is OK, as long as you don’t curse at users or others intentionally.
4. Comparing Cars characters with human surgery is prohibited
5. No roleplaying; users find this annoying. You are not a IndyCar racer, IndyCar veteran, nor a IndyCar crew chief. Having your username be any roleplay is OK, as long as you don’t create any posts/comments saying that you are that desired role
6. Users of all ethnicities, sexualities, and religious preferences are welcomed here
7. Do not have any conversations/discussions involving religions, politics, or sexualities
8. Pages that you create that are not racers nor races are automatically yours unless you say it is okay to edit them
9. Don't insult any artworks. It may be offensive to the artists behind it.
10. Bad artworks are also banned as well since this is an era of reworks.
11. Do not send/post any death threats to any user
12. No unjust hatred for users nor characters from the Cars franchise
13. Our official language is **English**; we welcome users and readers from all over the world, but English should be used at all times so that everyone in the wiki can understand what you are saying when editing/posting messages
14. Users are forbidden to put there stuff of IndyCar Universes onto this wiki. If you wanna create things only for your IndyCar Universe then create a wiki for it.
15. It is now permanently banned to join the wiki for the personal benefits of another user as that is considered a loophole to evade sockpuppetry.

### If you break the Community Rules
