MiiWiki:Policy

This is pretty informal but this wiki is heavily under construction and has not set up much policy yet. Once the community grows we will make more. This page lists all of the wikis policies, with links to the full policy pages. Message me on the Discord (check sidebar) or my talk page if you think some policy should be added Here's the current policy I have set up:

Archive
There are no archives yet as there is nothing old enough to be archived.

Audio standards
Music that has not bee given out for free by Nintendo must be clipped to 30 seconds or shorter and be high quality. Non-free music must also be legally obtained and ripped.

Deletion policy
Pages, audio, or images that are not useful should be deleted. If it is low-quality, try to recapture it if it is a screenshot or find a better version if it is not.

Dispute policy
If two or more editors cannot agree on a part of an article, hold a vote on the talk page. If a clear outcome cannot be decided, a staff member will decide. If a staff member is involved with the dispute, a higher-ranking staff member will decide.

Featured content policy
We are really nowhere near being able to feature or even good pages yet, so this is not for us quite yet. We will reach the goal soon!

Personal content policy
Editors are allowed 5 articles of personal content, whether audio or image (no videos please). Staff members may request more if they so desire.

Partnerships
MiiWiki is currently in no official partnerships, although we may enter some in the future. We will still link to NIWA wikis for subjects related to them. A goal of this wiki is to join NIWA, although this goal will take time and effort.

Text replaces
All text replaces are to be run from the text replace bot's account. All admins are given login credentials for it.

Promotions
All promotions to moderator/administrator are given out by Bureaucrats. Admins may give out Autopatrol to users whom they feel deserve it.

These are short descriptions of the ranks of MiiWiki editors:
