| Policies List · Guidelines List |
AmtWiki policies are developed by the community to describe the principles and practices of the wiki, in order to resolve conflicts and pursue our goal of improving Amtgard's own encyclopedia and cultural record. While the rules are deliberately not clear cut, these pages outline the best policies and practices, which should be applied using reason and common sense.
Derivation
AmtWiki is owned and operated by Amtgard Inc, INSERTINFORMATIONHERE.
Adherance
When applying policies or guidelines, use common sense. There will be occasional exceptions to rules. Those who violate the spirit of the rules may be reprimanded, even if no official rules have been broken.
Whether a policy or guideline is an accurate description of best practice is determined by the community through consensus.
Enforcement
If an editor violates the standards described in these pages, other editors should discuss the actions with original editor and persuade the person to adhere to acceptable norms of conduct. Over time it may be prudent to resort to more forceful means, such as administrator actions. In the case of gross violations of community norms, admins are likely to resort to more forceful means fairly quickly. Going against the principles set out on these pages is unlikely to prove acceptable, although it may be possible to convince fellow editors that an exception ought to be made. This means that individual editors (including you) enforce and apply policies and guidelines.
In cases where it is clear that a user is acting against policy (or against a guideline in a way that conflicts with policy), especially if they are doing so intentionally and persistently, that user may be temporarily or indefinitely blocked from editing by an administrator.
