Line 5:
== Content Policy ==
When adding new content to the wiki, please abide by the following rules:
# '''Keep contributions on-topic''' – The scope of this wiki is technical content related to modding and reverse-engineering the games. Lore and fandom content should go on the [https://slycooper.fandom.com/ official Sly Cooper wiki].
# '''No copyright violations''' – Do not post any copyrighted game code, assets, or content from other websites without the proper license/attribution.
# '''No mod uploads''' – Storage space is limited so the wiki is not to be used as a file hosting site. Any files you upload to the wiki should only be to expand or improve the wiki content. Upload your creations elsewhere and link to them using {{tl|Infobox mod}} or {{tl|Infobox tool}}.
# '''Keep it relevant''' – Please only add content that is relevant to modding and reverse-engineering the Sly Cooper games.
# '''No NSFWcopyright contentviolations''' – Do not post any NSFWcopyrighted textgame code, assets, or imagescontent onfrom other sites unless you have the wikiproper license/attribution.
# '''No NSFW content''' – Do not post any NSFW text, images, or other content on the wiki.
# '''When in doubt, ask for help''' - If you aren't sure whether something is allowed, you can always ask for help on Discord or ask an administrator on their talk page.
 
Line 14 ⟶ 15:
# '''Be respectful''' – Please be respectful of other editors and their contributions. Edit warring, personal attacks, and other destructive behaviors are not acceptable. Targeted harassment of any kind including racism, sexism, and homophobia will not be tolerated.
# '''Assume good faith''' – If another editor is showing problematic behavior, don’t jump the gun and assume they have bad intentions. Try to help them, and refer them to the appropriate rules and policies where necessary. When in doubt, feel free to bring it to an administrator’s attention and we will handle it as needed.
 
== Do's and Don'ts ==
* '''Do''' create articles for topics including (but not limited to): game mechanics, reverse-engineered data structures, game engine subsystems, and game builds.
 
* '''Don't''' create articles for enum data types; Document them on the page for the struct that they are mainly used for (e.g. document the Sly 1 ZAPK enum in a subsection of the the [[Sly 1:ZAP]] article).
 
* '''Do''' create informational articles for game mods and modding utilities, but '''don't''' upload them to the wiki. Host them somewhere else and link to them using either {{tl|Infobox mod}} or {{tl|Infobox tool}}.
 
== Be bold ==
If you want to add something but it is not covered by these rules, '''[[wikipedia:WP:BOLD|be bold]]''' and do what you think is best, whether that means creating a new article or including it as a section on an already-existing article. '''YouAs long as you follow all the above rules (and use common sense), you will not get in trouble for doing what you think is best if you are truly trying to improve the wiki'''.
