Community Rules

**Welcome to the Sky: Children of the Light Wiki! Please familiarize yourself with the Rules and Guidelines. These rules apply to the Discussions, User Blogs, and all comments.**

## Editing

If you see something that needs updating, don't assume it was left there on purpose. Contributors and Administrators are real people who are editing voluntarily. **TGC does not manage this wiki.**

When you're ready, please read our **Editing Guidelines** to get started. Anyone is free to edit here, so make an account, click edit, and get started!

### Practice open-mindedness & assume good faith

Since this wiki is open to edit by anyone, users of all skill levels and opinions are welcome to participate. We assume that most people who work on a wiki are trying to help it, not hurt it. If this wasn't true, any collaborative project would be doomed from the start. If you think there is a problem, it's best to ask the user about the issue first, then take any additional steps if necessary.

### Don't plagiarize content

If you are bringing content to Fandom or taking it from here (or to another site), please remember to **cite the authors properly**. Don't assume that everything on the Internet is open for the taking. Make sure you have permission by the creator and follow the proper attribution rules. Everyone likes credit for their hard work!

## Behavior

### Be nice

Being friendly and nice goes a long way, no matter where you are. Say hello to others, provide help where you can, and ask others if you need assistance. Simply being nice can greatly impact the growth and success of a community.

### Always remember online communities still involve real people

Even though you are online, this is still a community made up of real people. Mean comments, aggressive behavior, and vandalism all affect real people. If you wouldn't say it in person, don't say it here. If it breaks Fandom's Terms of Use, please don't say it at all.

### Keep things family-friendly and inclusive

All inappropriate content and discriminatory behavior (outlined below) is prohibited. This includes usernames, nicknames, and profile pictures. No profanity, adult themes, violence, and other NSFW topics. Your posts will be deleted and your account will **be banned**.

An excerpt from Fandom's Terms of Use:

You agree not to post, link or transmit any written, visual, or symbolic content that is obscene, pornographic, abusive, offensive, profane, or otherwise violates any law or right of any third party, or encourages criminal conduct, or contains slurs, hate speech, dog whistles, and/or incitement of violence. This includes, but is not limited to: ableism, ageism, biphobia, discrimination based on family structure(s), ethnocultural discrimination, exorsexism, gender essentialism, homophobia, misogyny, polyphobia, racism, religious or areligious intolerance, sexism, and transphobia.
## Content

### Stay on topic and in English

Please keep all discussions in English and about the game, TGC (thatgamecompany), or the Sky Wiki. Off-topic and non-English conversations will be deleted. Lore and creative writing are welcome, as long as they are about Sky.

### No hacked content

No posts, images, tutorials, or instructions related to exploiting, cheating, hacked content, or modded versions of the game. It's against TGC's Terms of Service. For more information, read the following TGC's Code of Conduct help pages:

* Do not use mods or bots
* Do not make mods for Sky
* Consequences of hacking

Discussions about Out of Bounds (OOBs) are allowed, as these are achieved in-game **without hacking**. For more information, see the Out of Bounds page.

### Mark your spoilers

Any posts discussing upcoming or unannounced content from the Beta, or end-game content, easter eggs, and secret areas or levels needs to:

* Have a title that does not reveal the spoiler content
* Be titled with a "Spoilers" warning
* Be posted under the "Beta (Spoilers)" tag
* Include a few newlines (at least 27) at the start your post, so the full content won't show when scrolling through Discussions

### No promoting or advertising

No promoting and advertising other social media accounts, websites, and external communities. This includes, but is not limited to: other Discord servers, Twitch channels, YouTube channels, buying, trading, or selling goods and services, with some exceptions, explained in the section below.

### No soliciting or exchanging for IAP

For security reasons, soliciting, requesting, or exchanging with others for **real life currency** such as **IAPs and Season Passes** are not permitted in the community Discussions or on personal profiles. This includes but is not limited to:

* Requests to buy a Season Pass or IAP
* Requests to heart exchange for a Season Pass or IAP
* Requests for commissions in exchange for a Season Pass or IAP

**Exceptions:** Heart exchanges for any other non-monetary item, such as an art commission, between players are permitted under the "QR and Heart Exchange" Discussion tag. Art trades and free commissions are also allowed.

### No spamming

No spamming, trolling, or vandalizing. Don't use the wiki to spam your own links. This includes pasting the same message multiple times to where it can be considered as "flooding", in articles, comments, and posts. Spam will be removed and your account will **be banned**.

## Account and Profile

### Respect people's privacy

Users are entitled to their privacy. Do not solicit other users for personal information.

### Limit your profile details especially for underage members

There isn't an age limit for reading the information on this wiki but Fandom has restriction regarding **underage identification** (Read Fandom's Terms of Use).

In order to prevent your account from being banned, restrain yourself from giving too much information on your profile or in comments (*age, location, sex orientation, etc.*). Failing to respect these will result in your account **being banned**.

### No impersonating or sockpuppeting

Impersonation of other users or famous people will not be tolerated. If you have been banned and return on a new account, your posts will be deleted and your new account(s) will **be banned**.

Multiple accounts are allowed as long as they are not used for deceit and should clearly state which user originally owns them.

## Ask for help

If you are confused or need help, just ask! There is a lot of help all around you on Fandom, including our Help pages, Discussions,    Sky Wiki Contributor Discord server, local admins and mods and Fandom staff. No question is too small!

## Never forget to have fun!

Community sites are places to have fun, meet new people, and learn more about your favorite topics. There is serious work to be done, but you should always remember to enjoy what you are doing!
