Policies and Guidelines

This article describes the Policies and Guidelines for the I Want to Eat Your Pancreas Wiki and contains information set as the guidelines for the behaviour we expect from users on this wiki. These rules are subject to change without prior notice.

General Ruleset

Do not vandalize articles. Doing so will almost always result in a block.
- If you see blatant vandalism that has not yet been reverted, please by all means feel free to revert it yourself; it isn't necessary for you to report to an admin unless it is a severe case or something you cannot revert yourself.
Do not create pointless articles or upload unrelated images. If you wish to create any article at all, it may be preferable to consult an admin before doing so.
Respect neutrality and do not jump into disputes between other users. If it doesn't concern you, do not get involved.
Do not advertise other sites on this wiki. The only links we accept are ones to official sources relating to the series, and ones to the affiliated Discord server/Subreddit.
Do not create articles containing fanon material, or edit non-canon information into existing articles. The content of this wiki should strictly be from the series' canon light novels, manga and movies.
Do not start discourse with other users. If you disagree with something a user has done, calmly talk it out with them on their message wall.
Do not use vulgar language such as slurs, curse words or other words and phrases that are generally considered rude on articles or in comments/on message walls. Users will likely face a block for this offence depending on the severity and context of what they say.

Article Etiquette

Language

The content of this wiki must be expressed in English. This is an English language wiki and all edits are expected to be carried out in accordance to this.
- The sole exception is the use of Japanese related to titles of content such as names, titles, and any other piece of determining content in the series.
- The official website's translations are to be used for the English names of characters.
  - In accordance with official translations, please do not write out long vowels in romanized names (ex. use 'Kyoko' instead of 'Kyouko' or 'Kyōko').
    - Writing the romaji in either the {{Nihongo}} template or an infobox is exempt from this rule, and long vowels should be written with a macron (ex. ō, ū) in these cases.
Per the ruleset above, the use of profanity, slang, and euphemisms in articles is not permitted, unless it is used under the context of direct quotes from characters.
Content should be written using a third-person perspective and in a factual and formal manner without opionated or biased statements.
Articles must all be written in present tense for the purpose of consistency.

Images and Media

Acceptable Images	Unacceptable Images
Images related to the series and taken directly from the author, publisher or any other official source. In the case of the manga, images should be uploaded with no text in speech bubbles. If there is text outside of a speech bubble that would need to be redrawn, the raw (Japanese) version must be used. Only the text outside of a speech bubble in a raw version shouldn't be erased. The text inside a speech bubble must still be erased. In the case of the anime, images should not have subtitles, watermarks, or editor credits. Only .gif or .png file extensions. This is the standard requirement for the wiki system, and many file extension types (such as .bmp) are not uploadable.	Collages. Fanart of any form, for any reason. Images unrelated to I Want to Eat Your Pancreas. Images with improper filenames (see below). Files in any other format other than .png or .gif. Images with watermarks. The exception is if it is an official watermark. Images for your profile should not be uploaded to the wiki. If you really must, please upload them to another image sharing site and import them here. Nudity and any other kind of image that shows explicit scenes, even if it is from an official source, according to FANDOM's Terms of Use. Duplicate images. If you find a duplicate image, please mark it with {{Delete}} in the file summary and include the filename of the duplicated image. Fake images. Uploading images and not using them.

When you upload an image to this wiki, please provide the minimum necessary information:

Descriptive Filename: Files should be named to outline key elements that occur in the image.
- If there is an image that has potential to be used but is improperly named, please state as such in the file's description.
Licensing: The Fairuse template should be added to every image you upload that is from an official source. It can be added by selecting 'Fair use' in the dropdown licensing menu below where the file is renamed, or through manually editing it in by putting {{Fairuse}}.
Categorization: After you upload a file, please add the appropriate categories via the button at the bottom of the page, or the tab on the right hand side of the Classic Editor screen. These categories should include which characters are in the image, and which chapter/episode you took the image from.

Consequences

If a user goes against the rules stated here, they will receive punishment for it. There isn't currently a set guideline as to exactly what punishment a user will receive due to the small size of this wiki, but it will most likely go as follows:

First Offence: Warning or explanation in reversion edit summary.
Second Offence: Message wall warning.
Third Offence: 3 month block.
Fourth Offence: Permanent block.

For severe cases, such as slur use or major vandalism, a user may be blocked immediately without receiving a warning beforehand. This will also be the case for users (usually trolls) who edit the wiki with no clear intention of following the rules from the beginning.

These rules are based off the Shield Hero Wiki and the Kimetsu no Yaiba Wiki's policies.
