Diff: Community Guidelines

Welcome to '''SoundboardPranks Wiki'''. This wiki is here to document characters, calls, soundboards, catchphrases, and community history in a clear, factual, and organised way.

The goal is to build a useful reference, not a rumour mill. Pages should be based on verifiable information whenever possible, using transcripts, recordings, screenshots, citations, and clear edit summaries.

=== Core principles ===

* '''Be factual.''' Write what can be supported, not what is merely assumed.

* '''Be organised.''' Keep pages clean, structured, and easy to navigate.

* '''Be respectful.''' Disagreements are fine, harassment is not.

* '''Be transparent.''' Explain major edits and use talk pages when needed.

* '''Avoid duplication.''' One clear, well-maintained page is better than several overlapping ones.

* use clear, consistent page titles

* keep page layouts neat and easy to follow

* use headings to separate topics logically

* add citations, transcripts, timestamps, or source links where possible

* summarise edits clearly and accurately

* use talk pages for disputes, planning, and major proposed changes

* merge duplicate or overlapping content where appropriate

* keep character, call, and soundboard information up to date

* correct mistakes carefully rather than starting edit wars

=== Content standards ===

Pages should aim to be:

* '''accurate''' — based on evidence or well-established community knowledge

* '''neutral''' — avoid exaggerated claims, personal attacks, or biased wording

* '''readable''' — written in plain language with sensible formatting

* '''relevant''' — focused on the subject of the page without unnecessary filler

=== What to avoid ===

Do not:

* post rumours as fact

* create duplicate pages for the same character, call, or soundboard

* add unsourced claims about real people

* vandalise pages or remove useful information without reason

* use insulting, threatening, or abusive language

* spam pages, categories, files, or talk pages

* upload irrelevant, misleading, or low-quality files

* add private or personal information that should not be published

=== Disputes and disagreements ===

If editors disagree:

* stay calm and discuss the issue on the talk page

* explain your reasoning clearly

* provide sources where possible

* work toward consensus instead of repeatedly undoing edits

Repeated edit warring or disruptive behaviour may lead to admin action.

=== Files and media ===

When uploading audio, images, or video:

* make sure the file is relevant to the wiki

* use clear filenames and descriptions

* place files on the correct pages

* avoid duplicate uploads where possible

* do not upload material that is misleading, abusive, or unrelated

=== User conduct ===

Everyone contributing to the wiki is expected to act in good faith. Treat other editors with basic respect, even when you disagree. A strong community is built through collaboration, not hostility.

=== Final note ===

Help make '''SoundboardPranks Wiki''' the best reference it can be: accurate, well-structured, and genuinely useful to readers and contributors alike.
