Editing Guidelines

=Page Creation=


 * No spam pages
 * Creating an article and leaving 'wip' as its only content is considered spam.
 * Use the forums, blog posts, or user pages for announcements, fanfictions, signups and pages for ideas/etc.
 * You may create pages for your ocs and pages regarding stories.
 * Non-Animal Jam related pages/sub-pages are not allowed. This includes (non-AJ related) character pages and roleplay pages (use the forum for roleplaying instead).
 * Any pages that stray away from the original focus of the wiki (i.e. unrelated pages, just-for-fun-pages, joke pages) are not allowed as articles. Though they are allowed as personal blogposts or user pages.
 * Please do not keep or recreate pages for the comments.
 * Inactive OC's must be moved to user subpages or blogposts. Inactive OC pages will be deleted.

=Page Editing and Content=


 * Absolutely no vandalism. Vandalism, as directly defined by the dictionary, "is the deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property".
 * Be thoughtful when editing another user's page. It is not recommended you do unless it is removing vandalism, correcting categories, or fixing minor mistakes such as grammar. Otherwise, being reported for vandalism is a possibility.
 * If someone vandalizes your page, don't vandalize it back or you are both in the wrong. Simply report it to a staff member.
 * No extreme/graphic violence in pages. Which means keep blood/gore to the lowest possible limit
 * Do not spam-edit to earn badges. This is called badgefarming and is prohibited.
 * Improper subpages will be deleted.
 * Pages that don't have categories after five days of creation will be deleted.

=Images and Media=


 * If a photo is not allowed for use by the photographer/creator, don't upload it. Not all images are for stock use.
 * Similarly, do not upload art unless it is yours, or you have credited and received permission from the original artist.
 * Images (regarding gifs) that are flashy or contain epileptic movement are not permitted. They will be removed. In the case of videos, please give a warning.
 * Images that contain excessive gore, swears or inappropriate content are prohibited.
