Walking Dead Wiki:Blog Rules

The following is a list of rules detailing the guidelines and requirements for creating and commenting on blogs.

1. No Spoilers
Spoilers will not be tolerated. Spoilers are any information that has not been officially released to the public. If details about an upcoming episode/issue/etc has been released to the public, it is not considered a spoiler.

2. No Harassment
Blogs are not the places to solve personal disputes. If you have an issue with another editor, leave a message on their personal talk page as well as on the talk page of an administrator. Derogatory comments about race, religion, gender, or anything else are not allowed. While swearing is okay, swearing directed at other users is not.

3. Have Content
Make your blog substantial and include more than just one sentence. Try sharing your own opinion on the topic and include a picture or two if you need additional content.

4. No More Than Three Blogs Per User Per Week
We love to hear your thoughts and ideas, but too many blogs clog up the newsfeed on the front page and prevent other’s blogs from being seen.

5. Be Relevant
While blogs aren’t required to focus on The Walking Dead, they should be relevant. Use your judgement and think, would the users of The Walking Dead Wiki be interested in what you are posting?

6. No Duplicates
Check the blog newsfeed before you post to make sure that no one has posted the same content before you. There is no need to have two blogs with the same information.

7. Be Original
Copying ideas from others is plagiarism and is not allowed. If you are using other’s ideas, you must credit them.

Commenting
Commenting rules are the same as the relevant blog rules. These include the following:
 * No Spoilers
 * No Harassment
 * Be Relevant
 * Be Original

Spam or otherwise disruptive comments will be deleted.

Note:
All blogs and comments can be edited or deleted at any administrator’s discretion. Administrators will provide a reason for why a blog or comment is deleted. If you have further questions, leave a polite message on the talk page of the administrator who deleted your blog or comment and they will provide clarification.

These rules were created for the benefit of The Walking Dead Wiki. If you have any questions or concerns, email twdwiki@gmail.com. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
