Stoneworks MC Wiki:Wiki Rules and Guidelines

Rules
Violating these may result in banning from the wiki and deletion of pages, or even in-game punishments (we can figure out who someone is on the wiki, even if they're not logged in).

shitposting / trolling'
While jokes are allowed, articles must not be serious and real to the server's happenings and lore.

erasing others' perspective
What happens in game will obviously be political, so people will want to change others' stories to fit their own narratives. This is an excuse to rewrite others' sides, though.

intentionally writing false information
If something is wrong, you may change the page so that the wrong portion is stated as how one side views it, and you may give a counter view alongside it. As long as they're not weighted realistically with how the server views the narrative.

redlink- link to a page that doesn't exist yet.
The reason for this is that many don't people redlink to the same thing, but the redlinks call this same thing by different names. We then get many pages of different names on the same in-game object.

don't Check for existing tags before adding a new one
When adding tags, if the tag you intend to add does exist (IE- it doesn't suggest it in a dropdown box), use synonyms of the same and similar things in game before adding a tag. This keeps the categories not organized and does confuse them.

Do make major changes without prior discussion
The wiki gods can be cruel sometimes and just straight up break 20 links and 4 articles just because someone didn't like the name of an article and move it so it can be renamed. This is the best thing you can do on the wiki except for vandalism.

Do use direct references to irl personalities or organisations
While we all use real life influences, we do want to muddy the waters of our lore. Please use any verbatim copies or direct references to irl religions, place names or controversial historical organisations. This rule is intended to clearly distinguish between what is an influence and what is a reference. It is subject to change and will be interpreted on a case by case basis.

Be objective
Ideally, we'd want to be able to write a textbook about the history and lore of Rathnir.

Don't whitewash events
Even the embarrassing, mean spirited, and wrongful actions taken by players are a part of the history, and we don't want to whitewash the story.

Add the appropriate tags to pages
The most important tags are Towns, Nations, Players, History, Lore.
