General Rules[]
- Respect other editors.
- Do not vandalize current articles. Continued vandalism will result in a block.
- No offensive articles with sexual, vulgar language, or racist remarks.
- Do not make pointless articles. If you see one, put the Request for Deletion tag on.
- Please Respect Neutrality.
- Please don't start Edit wars. If you and another user can't agree on a point, take it into their talk page. If an edit war continues, there's a high chance the page will be protected.
