Blocking Policy

  • Parading: Please do not pretend to be another user without their permission. If you do have permission and you have access to their account and are editing, then please make it clear somewhere that they asked you to make these edits (e.g. the comment section on edit pages). This applies on both wikia and on discord. This will usually result in a warning, but it depends on the impact of these edits, especially those done without consent.
  • Vandalism: We define Vandalism as any bad-faith edit made intending to lower the quality of the wiki or disrupt the functioning of the community. This includes editing other people’s pages without their consent. We prohibit any form of vandalism and it will cause a 24 hour block. If the vandalism continues, then we will extend the block to a permanent one.
  • Spam: We prohibit any kind of spam and will cause a 24-hour ban. We apply this in both wikia and in discord.
  • Move vandalism: Page move vandalism (i.e. renaming an article to a nonsensical or inappropriate title) is grounds for an immediate warning.
  • Inappropriate account naming: Creating an inappropriate account name, be it in terms of user impersonation/insult, or general rudeness/obscenity, with malicious intentions is also grounds for a warning and a temporary block.
  • Sockpuppeting: On our wiki, we define sockpuppeting as the creation of two or more accounts for abusive and disruptive reasons, including getting around the 25 non shareable face claims, having more than one vote, etc. This includes having multiple accounts on the Wiki’s Discord server without informing the administration team. Sockpuppeting will cause a ban length commensurate with the severity of the actions.
  • Personal attacks: We will give any user who is attacking other users (regarding anything) one warning prior to a cool-off ban. The length of the ban depends on the severity of the personal attacks.
  • Character Insults: Will be dealt with accordingly. If they have malice intent, both in-character and out of character, and it is continued, the user will be given a warning. We are here to enjoy roleplaying and creating characters. Even if you don’t like another character, we ask you keep it to yourself or bring it up as a constructive conversation rather than insulting and harassing the user and the character.
  • Copyright: Copy nothing (such as word-for-word stuff, pics, templates) without permission from either the owner of the content or an administrator. This also includes rewriting something and claiming it to be original. Doing so will cause a request for you to remove the content, followed by a 3 day block. Any enforcement after that is indefinite.

  • We function on a three strike system. You will receive two warnings before being blocked. It also depends on the severity of the actions. If you ignore a warning and continue doing something, you may be temporarily blocked. If you do something of extreme nature, such as sending death threats, then you may be blocked outright. If this does occur, then the vast majority of the wizengamot will need to agree on veto-ing the three strikes and going straight to a block.
  • It doesn’t need to be the same action three times. If you vandalise, then spam, then change your username to a slur then they will all be counted against you. If an admin gives you a warning, we expect them to make a note of it on the wiki and/or inform other wizengamot users. They must provide their reasoning.
  • Wizengamot users are held to different standards and a code of conduct. However, if they receive three warnings for breaking that code of conduct, or not pulling through on their duties, then it will end in a demotion vote rather than a block.
