Smash Hit Wiki:Rules

This pages covers the rules of the Smash Hit Wiki and links to other help articles about blocks, foreign languages, etc.

List of Rules
''The rules were last updated on July 3, 2020. Please suggest changes on the community discussion, the article's talk page or in a blog post.''
 * Updates and Changes: The rules can change at any time. Sometimes, we may use the announcements feature to inform you of a change to the rules.
 * Benefit the Wiki: Make sure that your contributions are making the wiki and community better.
 * Excess Pages: Do not make pages that would be considered excess.
 * Pages for very small things (for example, in-game door buttons) aren't very useful and will most likely be deleted or merged and subsequently redirected.
 * Individual types of the same obstacle (for example, horizontal glass bars are one of many glass bars, so it doesn't need its own page) are also not useful, as are unnecessary categories or appearances (which are already listed).
 * Vandalism and Spam: Do not vandalize, intentionally post facts that are not true, or spam pages and comments.
 * Fanon: Do not create any new fan pages here. Instead, create them on the fanon wiki.
 * There are still rules there. It's not a dumping ground for deleted content!
 * Content that is due to be moved to the fan wiki can sometimes have this template, Fanon.
 * Harassment and Bullying: Do not repeatedly harass, bully, "make fun of," or be rude or mean to other users.
 * Sometimes an exception is made, such as the fact that you can vent your anger at other bad users, e.g. 72.211.221.109 for his Edit War.
 * See the block list for other users (preferably those infinitely blocked) for more options.
 * See the block list for other users (preferably those infinitely blocked) for more options.


 * Minor blocks should not have anger vented at the users.
 * Irrelevant Content: Content that doesn't come from Smash Hit should not be added to this wiki.
 * Languages other than English (which may be referred to as Foreign Languages) are hard to read, and will promptly be translated. See Foreign Languages for more information on how to set up foreign-language wikis.
 * Any type of English is allowed. (Australian, British, United States, etc.)
 * Try to avoid mixing conflicting English rules in the same article (For example, don't spell color/colour different ways in the same article).
 * Talking between users does not have to be in English, though a translation to English may be provided by an admin for other users' convenience.
 * Trolling: Trolling, such as Rickrolling, is considered annoying, and it is not allowed on this wiki.
 * An exception is made if the trolling is deemed fitting due to timing (i.e. on days like April Fools Day).
 * Edit Wars: Raiding and Edit Warring (as seen in the 72.211.221.109 Edit War) is banned on this wiki.
 * Usernames: Do NOT have an unacceptable username in your FANDOM account. This will result in a block until the issue is resolved.
 * Again,

Other Notes

 * Smash Hit is sometimes sometimes be stylised as smAsh HIT (using camelCase: look at the logo). This is not an error and should not be corrected, especially if it is referring to how the logo is formatted.Smash-hit-logo.png'' 's logo]]

Solutions
Do NOT use an unacceptable profile picture in your FANDOM account. This will also result in a permanent block.

They are unacceptable in this Wiki because:
 * These profile pictures doesn't make sense.
 * They are irrelevant, or associated with spammers.
 * They try to offend our Wiki Staff on purpose.

Solutions

 * To get around the block, change the picture to something else, such as default FANDOM pictures. The block will then be lifted.
 * If you only edit on Mediocre game wikis, then a picture from Smash Hitor other Mediocre games is a good place to start.
 * Admins can decide what content is appropriate for other profiles.
