Here are the current rules of this wikia, which aims to keep the whole community more organized. (right now rules are still in construction, subject to change/improvement).


General Rules

  • Do not vandalize articles. Continued cases of vandalism will result in a block.
  • Do not make unrelated/pointless articles.
  • Do not make unrelated/pointless categories.
  • Do not advertise.

Editing

  • Light Novels take precedence over other forms of releases.
Light Novels > Anime > Manga > Other
  • Don't forget to add appropriate categories to any page you might be creating.
    • The order for Character pages are:
    • The order for Spell pages are:
  • Always use appropriate Infobox templates when creating pages:
  • A page should only be linked once per article, only the first mention should be linked to the respective page. For example, the first mention of Shiba Tatsuya in an article should be linked while the second mention of Shiba Tatsuya shouldn't be.
  • Do not use epithets in character page names.
  • If you see any article that does not have enough information, you may put the template: {{Stub}} at the top of the page. Please do not simply add the Article stub category.
  • No advertisements are allowed except either wikia-related or anime-related ones.
    Note: All advertisements must be posted under your own profile page, blog page, or forum page. Articles are not allowed to contain any advertisements.
  • Grammar is important.
  • Links on pages on this wikia to other pages should be only used the first time the page was mentioned.
  • Please do not plagiarize, remember to reword information coming from external source. Quotes from the light novel is allowed.
  • Please notify one of the admins before adding templates on articles.
  • It is recommended that all major/controversial changes to a page should be discussed on the talk page before attempt at making said changes.
  • Any change one is not sure of should also be discussed about on the talk page. This includes edits by other users that you don't agree with. If you think an issue is getting out of hand, please feel free to report to the admins.
  • Do not edit war (ie undo each others edit repeatedly).

Images

  • Do not upload profane images, pornographic images or images containing inappropriate language. Doing so will result in immediate deletion of the image, and the uploader will likely be blocked without warning.
  • The preferred format for uploaded images is png, but jpg is alright as well.
  • Images should to be named properly and categorized where applicable. Random names make it hard to find the file. An example bad naming is uynjqw922.jpg.
  • Avoid re-upload(s) of same images. Duplicates will be deleted.
  • Images should be clean where possible, (i.e. free of subtitles, borders, mouses etc).
  • Image Sources: Only images from official sources, such as the manga, anime, light novels and data books, may be used in the articles.
  • Please remove any watermarks or written text on any of the uploaded images unless the text is placed in an area of the image that is hard to clean & redraw. Especially if they come from manga.
  • All images must be posted with a "fair use" clause if it is a legal image.
  • Don't post entire pages of manga unless you have to do so to illustrate the point the image is making (e.g. how a spell works). Cut the image down to just what is needed so we stay within 'fair usage'.
  • Once uploaded, you cannot rename the file, so it must be renamed BEFORE uploading it.
  • Please only upload pictures that will be used in articles where appropriate, or on your own pages.
  • Uploading fan art is allowed but put it only on your page, don't flood it on the forum or official pages.
  • Don't upload pictures from the same scene. ( For example, A character not smiling, and a character smiling.
