Bakugan Wiki:Policies

This is a list of Bakugan Wiki Policies.

Bakugan Wiki:Privacy Policy

For the safety and privacy of the users on this Wiki, all members are forbidden to:

1. Share their real, full name
2. Share their real age
3. Share their address and location
4. Share private information that shouldn't be spoken about online (e.g. telephone numbers)

Anyone who asks for such information in public (as in, in a blog post, or on a Talk Page) will also be given a warning.

Bakugan Wiki:Warning Policy

Warnings should be used before a block. If there is someone who is extremely misbehaving, then you can block the user without warning.

Warnings MUST have a legitimate cause, and should be backed up by one of the Policies.

Warnings cannot be removed from Message Walls or archived Talk Pages, and can only be moved when a Talk Page is archived.

Bakugan Wiki:Language Policy

Cussing is not allowed, and any rude or sexual language will be removed.

Tip: If you have to ask, just don't say it. Also, if you see that it has been censored elsewhere, that's usually a sign that you shouldn't say it.

Bakugan Wiki:Picture Policy

Only high-quality images are allowed on articles. Other general images are allowed on User Pages only. Fan art is not allowed on articles. The only time a low-quality image can be used if it is a GIF animation, which are almost always in low quality. Inappropriate pictures or pictures that are risque are not allowed on the Wiki.

As stated on the Manual of Style, images that are not your own must be properly attributed to the person whom you received the image from. Therefore, if you took a screenshot from another website, you must state who created the image and use the proper license. In order to do so, use the image uploader or the multiple image uploader.

Bakugan Wiki:Harassment Policy

If any user is seen flaming, disparaging, insulting, or otherwise degrading another user, they will automatically get a warning and possibly a one-day block. Hate lists against other users are also not allowed.

Bakugan Wiki:Vandalism Policy

Any person who planned the disruption of an article or personal page will be given a warning, following the Warning Policy.

Bakugan Wiki:All Editors Are Equal

No user is allowed to discriminate others based on gender, race, or hobbies.

Bakugan Wiki:Quitting Policy

If a member decides to quit, he/she should place a {{Retired}} template on their user page. Both the user page and the user's talk page can be protected upon request.

Bakugan Wiki:Sockpuppet Policy

Members are only allowed two accounts, maximum. Any user with a duplicate account cannot become an Administrator or Bureaucrat with their secondary account, no matter what position they were in with their primary account.

Bakugan Wiki:Inactivity Policy

If you decide to leave the Wiki, it is not recommended to make your reason public, especially if your reason for leaving is because of conflict with another user.

Bakugan Wiki:Security Policy

If somebody accesses your account and violates the Policies, then you are held accountable.

Bakugan Wiki:Trolling Policy

Those who act with the intent of disrupting the community life of this Wiki will be blocked.

Bakugan Wiki:Blocking Policy

Any user that gets three warnings will be blocked; the first block will be for three days, the second for one week, the third for two weeks, etc. If a person reaches five "legitimate" blocks, or blocks with a duration of three days or longer, then they will be permanently blocked.

An account will automatically be permanently blocked if it is made known that the account was created to dodge a block or a kickban on the user's previous account.

Bakugan Wiki:Discord Policy

The Discord's policies work very differently than the main wiki's. Please read up on them to ensure an understanding of the differences.
