Josh the Hedgehog's Database/General Policies

This page lists the policies of this wiki. Every users or any article must adhere to these policies.

Note: If you have a suggestion, go comment below.

Section I: Articles

NO one-liners! If an article has only one line of info, no template, no categories, & no headers is not acceptable, & is considered spam.
If the article's info isn't really understandable, go edit it & improve its quality. If you didn't make an improvement edit to it, the article shall be deleted. Under special circumstances like leaving wikia, etc, the article will have a mark for deletion. If the user (creator of the article) goes back here, it is recommended to improve the article's quality.
If the owner of the page responds but is unable to make the necessary changes in time, it is recommended to place the Template:Under Construction in the page, & if necessary, the Stub Template.
Any user can edit a page to correct mispelled errors & grammar errors.
If the page that requires construction hasn't been edited within 3 weeks, another user must mark it for deletion. The user that created the page that requires construction blanks whatever information in the page will have the page deleted.
Do not steal content from other pages here owned by other users.

If you don't like to have your page deleted, make the necessary changes in time.

If you want to enter chat, you need to have 20 constructive edits, not spam.
Be civil.
Don't overreact.
Don't cuss. Cussing three or more times without censoring is equivalent to the number of days every curse is spoken.
Do not discriminate what others like or dislike.
Don't harass others.

We do not allow HORRIBLE recolored images. We only allow recolored sprites that are given credit.
When you recolor a sprite, give credits to the original sprite creator.
DO NOT EVER steal artworks of other users. It is plagiarism.

If a user doesn't want to be sended by message about roleplay turns, meet him/her in chat. We know that the users must know how to enter chat.
