UTW:Guidelines

''If you're looking for help on how to do things around the wiki, please go to this page. If you're a new user, go here instead.''

UnTrash Wiki, believe it or not, has some rules that every user is expected to follow. Below, you will find these guidelines on different topics around the wiki to help you not get in trouble. All it takes to stay on the good side of the wiki's authority is to follow the guidelines.

Adding files

 * To help UnTrash Wiki avoid legal troubles, do not add any files to the site if you aren't sure if you're allowed. Use files from the public domain if you aren't sure if you can use a file or not.
 * If you're adding a file that an individual creator made, make sure that you give them credit unless they say otherwise.

General edits

 * After an edit, write an informative summary in the box that appears after you click "Save page..." so other editors can keep track of how people are editing pages around the wiki. If you made too many different edits to summarize, simply type "SFYS" (see for yourself). If you overuse or misuse SFYS, you will be blocked.
 * If you make a small edit that no one will immediately notice the next time they see that page (change a word, replace a letter, fix a tyop, etc.), check "This is a minor edit". It's acceptable if you slip up and accidentally uncheck a minor edit from time to time.
 * Insure that you use proper grammar and American English (as that is what the wiki is written in) while editing.

Spoilers

 * After editing spoilers at all on a page (unless it's a minor edit), only write "Editing spoilers" as your summary.
 * Never mention spoilers anywhere on the wiki unless you cover them with.

Chatting

 * UnTrash Wiki's chatroom is reserved solely for conversation in the realm of fiction, such as UnTrashes, franchises, and plots. Having off-topic discussions will result in a block.
 * Don't use the chatroom or any other part of UnTrash Wiki to propagate franchises either positively or negatively.

Editors' pages

 * Do not harass an editor on their user or talk page for any reason other than they're a vandal.
