This page contains all of our rules, policies, and guidelines that the Code Adam Wiki will use to administrate and make sure the wiki stays clean and positive. Our primary objective is to provide information about the lore of the Webcomic Code Adam to all users. It is necessary to be thorough with the rules so that all users understand what is acceptable behavior on the Code Adam Wiki.

The Code Adam Staff highly recommends users to read the policies, rules, and guidelines before participating on the Wiki. Most situations will not warrant immediate administrative action. Instead, warnings are given first before administrative action is done. In some scenarios and cases, warnings will not be given, and immediate administrative action will be performed.

Policies

Conduct Policies

Conduct policies govern how Code Adam Wiki is run, what behavior is acceptable, and how others can collaborate.

Fandom Policies

There are FANDOM policies and guidelines that apply to all FANDOM communities (this includes Code Adam Wiki). These are the terms of use, the privacy policy, community creation policy. These policies are created by FANDOM staff and their enforcement is out of the control of this wiki. However, this wiki specifically enforces the FANDOM Community Guidelines and the user conduct section of the terms of use, in addition to the other policies described on this page. Violation of FANDOM policies (ie: death threats, being underage) is grounds for an immediate block.

Accounts

Users are permitted to have multiple accounts on FANDOM, but using these accounts for sockpuppeting is strictly prohibited. This happens when users attempt to evade blocks, confuse users, or create false feedback on topics.

Minumum Age

You must be at least 13 years of age at the time of registering your account to participate on our Wiki.

Per FANDOM's Terms of Use and their implementation of COPPA, a United States child protection law, all users who register an account on FANDOM must be at least 13 years of age in order to edit our wiki or participate in our forums. Users who reside in California or inside the European Economic Area (excluding the UK) must be the age of 16 to own and operate a FANDOM account.

Users who are evidently below the minimum age will be immediately blocked from our wiki until sometime after the user turns 13 or 16 years old. If you have turned 13 or 16 years old or were mistakenly blocked, please appeal to a higher-up.

Impersonation

Users are not permitted to create accounts that impersonate or attempt to impersonate other users, the Wiki's staff, famous affiliates with the Webcomic Code Adam, or Atterozen himself. Usernames that are an exact replica of these people's usernames or are very similar will be requested that they request a change of username through FANDOM's tools or will be immediately blocked from the Wiki.

User Rights

Some actions require users to have certain rights (or permissions) to conduct them. Our wiki permits all FANDOM users to edit and contribute. However, certain actions like deleting pages, rollbacks, and more are reserved to the staff roles. To see a full list of User rights, please visit Help:User Rights.

Neutrality

Pages on the Wiki are to be informational and factual. The creation of pages on the Wiki is to document content in the lore of Code Adam or relating to it. We hold a neutrality policy in regard to content on our pages. Pages should be written as unbiased as humanly possible and keep out any opinions. Statements in articles must be verifiable. Opinions that are not verifiable can be presented by quoting significant proponents, but they must not be presented as facts. If different sources make conflicting assertions, the assertions should be presented by quoting the sources instead of being presented as facts.

Verifiability

Because the Wiki's content is mostly directly taken from the Webcomic itself, it is not easy to properly cite evidence or sources of information. For content taken directly from the Webcomic, there is no need to source it. However, should information from the Webcomic seem incorrect or untruthful, the editing user may be required to prove their assertions/findings. If it is not possible or is improperly proven correct or truthful, the content can be removed from the page and the editing user may be cited with a warning.

Guidelines

Guidelines are a set of best practice that are used to resolve conflicts when there is a disagreement on what should be done.

Content Criteria

The Code Adam Wiki has the right to delete any content on the site.

• Files may be deleted if they are low-quality, unused, or are a copyright violation.
• User Blogs/User Pages may be deleted if the content is inappropriate or considered spam or other discretion deemed necessary by a staff member.
• Templates may be deleted if they are unused, outdated, or broken.
• Pages may be deleted if they do not relate to Code Adam Wiki, are opinionated pieces, or are obvious attempts at spam and/or vandalism.

Administrators reserve the right for discretion on what may be deleted at times. Most deletions are for enforcing rules, policies, and/or guidelines or for Maintenance. Sometimes, pages may be moved without leaving a redirect for reasons that may regard to enforcing rules, policies, and/or guidelines or for maintenance.
