Wiki Rules

Welcome to the wiki, before you begin editing please ensure to read this wikis rules:

Rule 1: No bullying other users who come to this wiki upon discovering it.

Rule 2: No harassing other users who discover this community.

Rule 3: No posting explicit content (if it's part of a song title you must place the first letter and the last letter of the word and place asterisks (*)'s 'in place of the other letters).

Rule 4: No threatening anyone else who discovers this community.

Rule 5: No posting any form of dirty photos of stars. If this is done you will be blocked for a month.

Rule 6: No violent behaviour towards others.

Rule 7: No being too opinionated and claiming that one famous singer or musician is better than another in order to overpower someone else's preference.

Rule 8: Always be both polite & civil towards others (this rule links to rules 1, 2, 4, & 6)

Rule 9: No adding random categories without first discussing them with an admin.

Rule 10: No creating blank pages otherwise they will be deleted.

Rule 11: Every time a singer or musician is mentioned on a page they must be linked (regardless as to whether they have a page or not). This rule if not followed will bear no punishment unless 20 pages are left completely unlinked, as if this is done you will be given a warning and asked to do so, however if you still do not do so you will be blocked for a week, and if this occurs continually your blocks may extend.

Rule 12: No Vandalism of pages. If you are spotted as having vandalised upon the wiki, your edit will be removed from the page that you vandalised, and a message will be placed on your talk page, alongside a link to this page (In the case of anonymous users your edits may need removing manually or if you do several at least one may need to as that way you will be tagged and linked to this page).

Rule 13: If a page is made for anyone famous who has nothing to do with singing or music in general then these pages will be deleted. If this is done continually or in excess of 20 pages you will be given a warning, before later being blocked for 2 weeks.

Rule 14: If you make an edit which is not to the wikis standards you may be asked why and will then be informed of the wikis standards in order to try and help you comply with these in future edits.

Rule 15: No usages of infoboxes as this site does not use any kind of infoboxes upon it's pages.

Rule 16: Do not deviate from the formulas that pages are written to. If you wish to write a singer or musician a auditions page, an episodes page, a judge or guest  page look at the formula for how this is written first so that way your edit or page creation will not require clean-up.

Rule 17: Always remain both polite & civil when discussing subjects upon discussions boards or blog posts and if someone is seen as disobeying this rule they will be given a warning and linked to this page. If this rule is broken again then a weeks block will be given, and if this is repeated again several times a block for a longer period of time may be provided to you without warning, as the smaller blocks will be warned upon just prior to their occurrence.

Rule 18: If you are unsure how to edit something ask for an admin to explain how to do so to you.

Rule 19: Before you make a page ensure to check to see if an act already has a page, and before you link to a page ensure you spell the name of the act you are linking to correctly so that confusion is not caused. This has never occurred however it could occur, if this does occur there will be no punishment issued if this rule is broken as it will have an easy fix and it would be viewed as unfair to punish someone for a simple mistake.

Rule 20: Do not rename a page without a valid reason to do so, and if you do so with a valid reason ensure to change the acts name and links upon any other page that their name is visible upon as it is likely it was also be linked here. This has never occurred, however despite this one day someone could change a pages name without a valid reason, however this could likely be either a misunderstanding or a mistake so they will not be punished for doing so as this could be seen as unfair on them. People do not need to ask an admin if they can change a pages name as they can do so and state why as a valid reason on the reasoning as to why they renamed the pages, however it could perhaps be helpful if they were to then discover every place the act was named and / or linked upon so that way it would save both other users & admins the time of having to do so, however if a user renames a page and does not have time to change links or the acts name everywhere they are linked upon or simply forget to do so they will not be punished for this, as admins and other wiki users will be able to do so upon their behalf. Like the former segment of this rule no punishment will be provided for breaking the latter segment as it would be unfair to do so.

Rule 21: Take any suggestions that any admin or any other member of the community gives you into account. This rule cannot be broken as whether you implement the suggestion is entirely your choice so you will not be punished either way.

Each of these rules bar Rules 5, 10, & 16 If broken will first be linked to this page with a warning, and then later blocked for two weeks, however if this form of behaviour occurs on a continual basis then your blocks will begin to extend. Rules 19, 20, & 21 are viewed as being unpunishable as it would be unfair to punish people for simple mistakes.
