Find a Wikia:Rules

This is a list of the rules that Find a Wikia users are expected to follow.

Do

 * Follow Wikia's [//wikia.com/Terms_of_Use Terms of Use] . You can read a short version instead.
 * Be brief. Don't drag out an article when you can summarize instead. It's easier to read a few sentences than a multi-section essay!
 * Use good spelling and grammar. This should go without saying. Articles are meant to be read, and poorly written articles reflect poorly on us and the wikia in question!
 * Write articles in English and about English wikias. It's not just that foreign-language wikias can screw up some templates. This is a wikia for finding other wikias; as such, people who can read it will search for information in English and communities that speak it.
 * Be nice to other users. Instead of irritating others, be civil, and constructive at the very least.
 * Add the correct categories! At the very least, each article should have a category based on the hub of its subject wikia. You should also add categories based on the main gist of that wikia's content. If you're creating a new category, make sure that it's useful, and that several wikias will share the description.

Don't
Articles that don't follow the rules may be deleted, and users who don't follow them may be blocked. Thank you for complying.
 * Do not vandalize articles.
 * Do not exaggerate the negatives of a wikia. You may add valid negative information, such as a wikia needing contributors. However, if you're adding unfounded criticism, or are bringing drama from other wikias, that's no good!
 * Do not add inaccurate information to articles.
 * Do not create articles for wikias that have no reason to exist, that are completely inactive, or that aren't serious. This goes against our purpose of listing communities to join and projects to work on.
 * Do not create duplicate articles. Please search for an existing article about your wikia before creating one!
 * Do not add unnecessary categories.
 * Do not spam for badges. It's okay to work towards achievements, even if you're only trying to make it onto the leaderboard. Just make sure your edits are constructive!
