< Guide on User Pages Rules and Ban Appeals


Policies and Rules

Here's a list of rules you (and others) should not violate. Violating these will result in a ban, although some of these are highly contextual.

Explicit Content Policy

Images / Videos

Uploading explicit videos/images, such as images containing gore or nudity, is strictly disallowed. Linking to NSFW content is acceptable, on the condition that:

  1. You have a reason to link to it
  2. It is appropriate in the given context it is linked in
  3. The content is not illegal or is extremely grotesque
  4. The website it is linked to does not also host illegal/extremely grotesque content, viruses, or sketchy links

Keep in mind that uploading potentially offensive things (such as chat logs of Daniel talking to a sting) is not explicitly disallowed (depending on the context, of course).

Just use your brain. If you cannot tell by these rules given that your content is acceptable to upload/link, you probably shouldn't link it.

Profanity / Slurs

Cursing is acceptable in article, but is to be avoided to be used if it is not necessary. Do not use uncensored slurs in articles.

Self-promotion

If you start advertising your own projects, even if Daniel related, it’ll be deleted, and you’ll be subsequently punished for your actions, which will likely be a block.

Vandalism / Spamming

Signing up to start editing the wiki solely to blank pages, vandalize user pages, or type nonsense into articles will result in you being blocked indefinitely from editing on the website. Inserting nonsense or gibberish will also result in a block from the website.

Often times, people will fabricate news about Daniel vandalizing the DL Wiki. Don't try to vandalize under Daniel's name, trust me, it won't work.

Harassment

It's not permitted to threaten people with things such as doxing, violence, etc. This is often tied with vandalism, namely vandalizing a user page with harassing remarks or insults. If you need to contact a user about an issue, to have it resolved, you should direct yourself to the unofficial DL Wiki Discord

Inappropriate Usernames

Creating an account with a username that has slurs or hate speech in it is not tolerated, as well as impersonating other people (especially Daniel). You will be promptly banned if you violate these rules. Please do not create multiple accounts, too, unless you have a reason.

Appealing a ban

If you believe you were falsely or unfairly banned or that your ban should be lifted,, please consult the Wiki Admin, daniellarsonwiki, in the DLW Discord server and request an appeal. If they feel that it is worth their time, you'll be let back in. Please note that this purely depends on your ability to explain yourself, and the offense that got you banned in the first place.
