Policies and Guidelines

Worried about rules? Here is the list:

WIP

## Content:

### Articles

The content of this wiki (pages, comments, blog posts, etc.) must remain factual to the Bible. This is to be an informational wiki about the fundamentals of the Christian faith and/or religion. Do not make full pages or add sections to articles about your personal opinions or theories; those are to be blog posts.

For example:

Allowed page: Character of the Bible (Paul, Moses, etc.)

Not allowed page: Denomination (Catholic, Baptist, etc.)

Why no denomination pages? Because this wiki is about the fundamental faith Christians share *regardless* of denomination.

Any swearing will not be tolerated. No vandalism, spamming, or anything of the sort should be included.

### Blog Posts

Blog posts should not contain any sexual, or inappropriate content, should not be used to slander others, but can be used to express ideas, thoughts, etc. Please do not create general blog posts saying things such as "Christians should support\_\_\_\_, Christians should not support\_\_\_" etc.

Blog posts are meant for users to share things with other members of the community. They should not contain only one line, or content that belongs in an article (e.g. a blog post about Psalms) or thread (e.g. a message you are trying to give someone should go on their message wall, not in a blog post.)

### Comments:

Comments should be respectful and should be relevant to the page it is on. For example, long prayer requests shouldn't be on the Genesis page, they belong on the Prayer Requests page.

## Conduct:

Your conduct towards other users should be kind and friendly. Discussions and debates should be done with the utmost respect. Admins will delete or edit your comment (s) and issue a warning or may block you, especially if you have past offenses.

* There will be **no** hate of **any** kind. We take this very seriously here. No homophobia, no xenophobia, no discrimination, no cyberbullying, etc.
	+ If you are being harassed or bullied in any way, please contact an admin immediately so we can help you with the problem. We also strongly encourage you to tell a parent or guardian.
	+ For more information on this rule specifically, read this.

* If a user has marked a thread on their wall as [PRIVATE], please do not join in.
