**Important Wiki Rules**

* Please use proper grammar and spelling to the greatest degree possible.

* Kindly utilize , as this simplifies the work for other editors later on, since the page structures otherwise turn extremely messy. You can change this to your default editing mode in the preferences settings.
* Refrain from spamming, trolling, threatening, using hate-speech (ethnic, homophobic, against autistic, disabled, or mentally ill, etcetera), and rude, vulgar, sexist or offensive language.
* Using handles is strongly forbidden, especially to circumvent blocks. This will result in the block duration being greatly increased for all of the relevant accounts.
* Only create profiles for characters that you are very familiar with/that you know much about, and present evidence or logical arguments why they should be rated a certain way.
* Do NOT insert unmotivated ratings into profiles simply because you happen to like or dislike the characters. This will likely lead to a block.
* If you notice that another user has inserted blatantly false ratings, , as well as about the member responsible for the aforementioned incorrect edits.
* Preferably avoid adding redundant categories or ones that require extremely subjective interpretation. It is usually better to stick to the already available options. Also, if you are uncertain about the requirements for characters to fit into a certain category, please contact the for clarifications before starting to mass-edit, as it can take a considerable time to clean up otherwise.
* When uploading images or videos, do not check the "Ignore all warnings" option. If a file with the same name exists, a warning prompt will appear. Replacing pre-existing files is strongly discouraged without discussing it in a thread .
* If you notice a dead link to a calculation for a feat, we would very much appreciate if you could either please insert the URL into the , and and get help with this issue. If the page in question is not stored in this archive, you can help out by downloading the files listed in , search for the feat in question, upload it as a blog post, and update the link accordingly.
* Given that the Marvel and DC comic book franchises have been shared by hundreds of different writers, we have specific power levels for their characters.
* Do not add any original or fan-made characters to the wiki. If you want to create any original/fan-made character profiles, do so in . All characters in VS Battles wiki profiles must originate in notable or popular works.
* Do not create any joke profiles. They do not fit into our rating system. Also avoid creating profiles for fan characters, advertisement characters, YouTube personalities, or similar. If you want to create any such pages, do so in .
* If you want to a certain character profile to be created, but lack the experience and knowledge to do so, you can visit thread, but be careful to read the rules and instructions. Do not expect that the profile will automatically be created, and do not spam user pages with requests.
* You are only allowed to add threads from other sites to the bottom "Win" and "Loss" sections of character pages if they are consistent with our .
* You can leave comments in the if you want to argue about a character's power or point out things that seem wrong, but don't be rude, obnoxious, unreasonable, or overly argumentative. Also, try to keep the forum threads on point, and to not veer off-topic.
* Please don't show severe irrational bias. For example, saying things such as Archie Sonic is Omnipotent, that Naruto can solo Marvel, or that Giorno Giovanna can solo all of fiction.
* Do not use crossovers between different franchises for scaling character statistics. If they, as usual, are not a part of canon continuity, they obviously do not count, and even if they supposedly are claimed to be canon, the franchises will almost always have their respective power levels adjusted in relation to each other.
* Impersonating other members is not allowed.
* Avoid talking badly about other wikis and communities, as we do not want any conflicts or bad blood. Also, do not write anything that can be interpreted as harassment of real people.
* We are trying to keep this wiki all-ages accessible, so please think twice before inserting offensive, disturbing, or disgusting texts, descriptions, or images into the profiles, and feel free to help out by changing such content.
* Do not link to or promote anything illegal within the Wiki. Linking to scams of any sorts is obviously strongly forbidden and will lead to an immediate ban.
* You are not allowed to discuss or mention of any kind of method or tools that can be used in any way to circumvent security of the wiki, spam the wiki or otherwise exploit the wiki. If you discover any such means or tools tell an Admin in a PM, do NOT ever post it publicly.
* Death threats of any form, even obscure ones, will absolutely not be tolerated.
* Suicide: You are NOT allowed to ask how you can kill yourself, nor are you allowed to post suggestions or to encourage other people to do it. This will result in an immediate ban without any warning.
* Statements implying substance abuse, even indirect ones, will result in a block. This rule will apply regardless of the circumstances, no matter how inflammatory the other member is being.
* Do not post links to pornographic material. This will lead to an automatic ban without warning.
* Kindly post full-length links, not shortened ones (aka, ad-driven links). Posting shortened links will be interpreted as utilization of wiki traffic for personal gain, and result in a block.
* Being sexually flirtatious will not be tolerated. Playing mature games, flirting, or using sexual connotations with minors is strictly prohibited.
* Posting your personal information like SN numbers, addresses, etc. is not advised. Doing so for other members against their consent will result in a ban.
* Derogatory comments on religious or political matters (both highly sensitive issues) will not be tolerated, as it almost always leads to massive hate-commenting and negativity. Doing so will result in a deletion of the post, and possibly a ban, depending on the severity.
* Please avoid VS debating with deities featured in modern religions unless it is a comics, games, tv, etc version of that deity. It is both controversial and impractical to bring up the contents of religious scriptures.
* Admins and other staff members are NOT allowed to lend access to their accounts to other people. This only leads to confusion and suspicion. It doesn’t matter if the staff member says that he trusts the other person, the other person has not been appointed.
* If staff members have a problem with each other, they should take it up directly through polite private messages, not chastise each other in public.
* Plagiarizing other people's work and claiming that it is yours is not acceptable.
* While using profiles from other wikis as references for statistics is generally not prohibited, if the reasoning for the statistics can not be explained if asked, or if the profiles are badly translated they might be deleted.
* Lastly, an extremely important rule and safeguard regarding the entire Wikia network: Kindly do not use the same username and password combinations as you use for other communities, such as message boards. While the Wikia network has comparatively good security, alternative message boards generally do not. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to your account in such communities being hacked, and your username/password combination used for vandalism in the Wikia network. This might lead to being permanently globally blocked by Wikia's staff for violating its terms of use.
* Please report any rule violations on this thread. Reporting such incidences is highly appreciated.

Additionally, kindly report any that you come across.

Note: Only report violations regarding the . False reports due to personal vendettas are unacceptable.

In cases of extreme vandalism or trolling, you can report the accounts at the .
