Tremor Mod Wiki:Rules

Below are the community guidelines for. Infringing upon any of these rules will result in either a warning or a temporary/permanent ban, depending on the circumstances.

Personal Attacks
Users should never personally attack other members of the wiki community on any part of the site. Comments should focus on the content, not the person.

Edit Warring and Reaching Consensus
While contributing to the wiki, it is possible that a user may disagree with how the information on a certain page is presented. It is expected that the two users will reach a consensus when they are in disagreement by using a talk page rather than constantly editing and/or reverting changes.

Assume Good Faith
If a wiki editor makes a mistake due to human error, the fact that they are new to the community, or any other honest reason, fellow wiki community members must assume good faith. Rather than insulting, berating, or lashing out at the editor, community members should approach situations like these with a helpful and understanding attitude.

Vandalism
Wiki vandalism will be defined as intentionally adding, removing, or changing content to the wiki in order to compromise the integrity of the site. It is strictly prohibited.

Examples of vandalism include but are not limited to:
 * Inserting nonsense/gibberish into page content.
 * Uploading offensive images.
 * Blanking page content.
 * Spamming links to external sites unrelated to the content of.

Sockpuppeting
Registered users are expected to use a single account for all editing under most circumstances. The use of more than one account by a single individual is known as "sockpuppeting".

A second account can be used in certain rare circumstances by longtime established, trusted users. Some valid reasons to use a second account may include:
 * Technical testing
 * Bot (automated) accounts
 * Administrators who want to use non-admin accounts in less secure editing situations.

In those cases, it must be made absolutely clear that the accounts are operated by the same individual.

Individuals found to be operating multiple accounts, in an ongoing manner, for the purposes of mimicking different personas or the like, will have all of their associated accounts and IP addresses permanently banned.

The use of a registered account and an anonymous IP address (editing while logged out) may also be considered bannable sockpuppeting behavior, if this appears to be a deliberate attempt to fool others or circumvent rules. Occasional anonymous edits performed by an individual with a registered account, but with no ulterior motive, are not a problem.

Talk pages

 * When making comments or asking questions on a talk page, be sure to sign the end with four tildes ( ~ )
 * Always remain civil during discussions.
 * An article's talk page is intended for discussion or questions regarding the article's content. It is not a forum for casual discussion. Game suggestions, personal stories, shout-outs, etc. will be removed.

Signatures
Custom signatures must comply with these specifications:


 * They must be unobtrusive.
 * They must not be difficult to read.
 * Your signature must clearly and obviously display the actual username for your wiki account, without any character alterations.
 * For example, the username "BillSimpson" may not be displayed as "Harry", or even as "BillySimpson".
 * Your signature must retain one prominent and obvious link to your userpage, and one to your user talk page.
 * Your signature must be static. It may not contain any animations, interactive elements (aside from links), or dynamic elements.
 * Your signature must not display any more than 30 additional characters of text beyond your username and talk page link. The standard time and date stamp is not included in this limit.
 * It cannot contain any images.
 * It cannot use any transcluded templates.
 * It must be no taller than 20px.
 * It must not produce more than 255 characters of code, excluding the standard time and date stamp.

Editing Guidelines
These editing guidelines are meant to clearly outline the basics of how an article on this wiki should be formatted. Please follow them in order to maintain consistency throughout the site.
 * Edit in U.S. English rather than Queen's English.
 * Refrain from using profanity unless it is used within a direct quotation.
 * Edit in an “encyclopedia” style, avoiding use of the first person or any personal bias.
 * Information that is not backed up by an official statement should be treated as rumor and labeled as such.

Bugs
Bugs are only permitted in wiki articles in rare circumstances. Most bugs should be placed in wiki articles, and should instead be reported on the official Forum or in the bugs channel of the official Discord

In order for a bug to be included in a wiki article, it must meet the following criteria:
 * The bug must be consistently reproducible.
 * It must cause significant harm in one of the following ways:
 * The bug causes crashes.
 * The bug can potentially corrupt players' modded or vanilla save files.
 * The bug could result in permanent loss of inventory items or alteration of important world tiles.
 * The bug would cause a severe annoyance or inconvenience that could be avoided by warning players in advance.

Bugs that only consist of minor glitches or exploitable behavior (cheats such as duplication bugs) should not generally be placed in articles. "Famous" and longtime prominent glitches or exploits that have been openly discussed at length by the developers may be included, but this is a very rare occurrence.

Trivia
"Trivia" is a broad term that often invites creativity and speculation, especially regarding a game element's "possible reference" to other media. To prevent this resulting in long lists of low-quality "cruft" and other unsubstantiated opinions, trivia items should only be added if they conform to the following:


 * The trivia item is confirmed by Tremor's staff, in which case it should include a link to a forum post or other record of that confirmation.
 * If no staff confirmation is available, the trivia item must be "undeniable", meaning that most players are likely to agree it is obvious. When there could be multiple valid theories that are each just as likely, do not post any. Trivia sections do not exist for the purpose of listing possible theories.
 * For example, pointing out where the Spear of Justice's design came from would be an "undeniable" trivia item.
 * If a game item merely looks like something you saw somewhere else, it usually doesn't merit mention (starting a trivia item with "might be a reference" or "looks like" is often a sign that the item isn't worth mentioning).
 * Trivia should not generally describe a game element's function, nor tips on using or dealing with it, unless these are mentioned only as they relate to points of trivial interest that have little bearing on playing the game.
