Rules

**WARNING: THIS PAGE IS IMPORTANT AND CANNOT BE PURGED. ANYONE THAT DOES THIS WILL HAVE THEIR ADMINSHIP REVOKED, DEPENDING ONT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PAGE.**

The following is a list of rules for The Kominsky Method Wiki.

## General Rules

1. **Age Limit** - Due to FANDOM's Terms of Use and the law of COPPA, Fandom says that you have to be 13 or older to make a FANDOM account. Be aware that If you get caught under 13 by Fandom, you will be globally blocked until you turn 13.
2. **Language and Offensive Content** - Contributors should be aware that this wiki is PG-14 at best. It is never acceptable to use negative language against characters of The Kominsky Method or users of this wiki. In comments, we will not accept spam of any kind. Bomb threats, drugs, pornography, and racist information is considered family unfriendly and will not be tolerated to any extent.
3. **Do not make unconstructive edits to obtain badges** - We use a badge system to keep track of users' edits/to see who's more active than others. Also, badge gaming is an abuse of the system and is not allowed. It does not even qualify you for admin rights.

## Behavior

1. **Trolling/Harassment** - We have no tolerance when it comes to trolls, whether it be for humor/harassment.
	1. **Do not feed trolls** - If you see a troll and/or a vandal, just report to an admin right away. Do not engage in any Flame War with him. You'll only be giving what the troll wants and it will be harder for the admins to undo the damage.
2. **Do not bring drama to this wiki** - If you have a problem with another wiki, talk to them, not a random wiki.

## Content

1. **No Vandalism** - Vandalism is the act of replacing content with gibberish, inserting false information, or other things.
2. **No Edit War** - Edit Warring is the act of repeatedly undoing/editing each other's edits. To prevent an edit war, just report to n active administrator immediately. Edit warring against vandalism/spamming/plagiarism, however, is allowed.
3. **No unnecessary pages** - This rule speaks for itself.
4. **Do not publish fake edits** - Removing content from pages, publishing them, and adding the same thing to the pages is frowned upon and will result in an immediate block for 3 days.
5. **No Fanfiction** - Do not create your own content and/or post fanon episodes of The Kominsky Method. This is not a Fanfiction site.
6. **Do not create pages dedicated to yourself** - Use your profile!
7. **Do not post fanart** - This wiki is not DeviantART, and posting images made by other people is Copyright Infringement.
8. **Do not leak Actor's personal info** - You should not reveal the actors' house address or phone number. It is a serious offense that can make them susceptible to robberies, prank calls, stalking, etc.

## User rights

3. Track record of not asking for things just because you want them.

2. **Use your powers correctly and in good faith** - An Administrators' job is very serious, an Administrators' job is to protect the wiki from vandalism/keep the wiki civil.

Becoming a Fandom Staff is not easy. You have to get a job at Fandom.

### Requirments

1. Mountains of edits
2. Expertise of coding
3. Trusted volunteer

## Violating ToU

Including you, you should not violate the Terms of use, either by creating a duplicative wiki, creating an account with an inappropriate username, and making alt accounts to evade global bans.

Violation of Terms of Use is a serious offense for the highest degree. This will result in a global block by Fandom Staff. Users that have been globally blocked will also receive a local block for the same duration as the global block.

## Admonishments

Failure to abide by these rules will result in forum posts being deleted and a ban will be issued.

* Administrators will add a Blocked template to a user's talk page.
