Certain guidelines must be followed when using this wiki. These rules are laid out as follows:
Editing Permissions
Users are generally not permitted to edit pages without being part of the official Wiki Team on Kuro the Discord. This helps prevent bad edits from being made and makes communication between editors much easier. To join the official wiki team, you must join the Discord server linked on the front page of this wiki and contact one of the existing wiki team members. If you're found to be trustworthy and capable of making good edits, you will be allowed onto the team and thereafter allowed to edit the wiki.
Users who edit or create pages without being part of the wiki team are subject to being blocked at any time without notice.
Discussions
Wiki members who are not part of the wiki team may still comment on pages and start forum discussions about Five Years Later. Generally speaking, these discussions are open to just about anything, but there are still some restrictions to be followed:
- Harrassment of other users is strictly prohibited. Banter is one thing, but direct attacks will not be tolerated.
- No spam.
- No porn.
If you break any of the above rules, you are subject to being warned and eventually blocked from the wiki altogether.
Editing Rules
Upon being confirmed as a member of the Wiki Development Team, there are still rules you need to keep in mind while editing pages.
General Rules
- Proper English should be used at all times to the best of your ability when editing pages.
- Powers and abilities should be referred to in simplistic, generalized terms that can be easily understood by anyone unfamiliar with detailed superpower terminology.
- All content on a given page should be 5YL-relevant. Information such as voice actors and minor show trivia does not apply to the comic, and so should not be included.
- Page creation should be properly prioritized. Important pages such as those for Chapters and Main Characters should be seen to before pages for things like transformations and items.
Terminology Rules
- Ben's aliens should be referred to as "transformations" instead of the general term "aliens" to avoid confusion with regular aliens such as Zim and the like.
- The full list of Ben's transformations is referred to as his "arsenal".
- Abilities natural to an alien's species should be referred to as "abilities", never as "powers", as the term "powers" indicates them possessing abilities not natural to their species.
- When referring to Chapters, simply use their actual title. You do not need to include the full number.
