Real Life Villains Wiki: Difference between revisions

Line 50:

# '''NO personal bias''': This wiki is about general facts concerning individuals who have committed extremely serious crimes, with documented evidence. This also includes the incitement of hatred. We do not allow users to use this as an excuse to fill articles with personal bias (for example, "I think Hitler was a bad man" - even if he was, this wording is wrong and displays personal opinion rather than historical fact; instead, the proper wording would be "Hitler is widely considered one of history's most reviled figures") - you must give reasons and reliable sources (i.e. academic journals, news articles, etc.) for any information you give to this wiki, and these sources will be checked. Personal bias is not historical fact. Also, we will NOT allow this wiki to be a Liberapedia or Conservapedia clone! Any information that came from Liberapedia or Conservapedia, or is similar in nature to it will result in the appropriate discipline necessary.

# '''NO articles on people you dislike''': This wiki is for people who have committed serious crimes, not simply "corrupt" or "unlikable" people. We are not here to list political or religious leaders, teachers, students, or Internet celebrities (including random internet users) you find objectionable unless they have committed serious crimes and we ARE NOT an advertisement site for internet trolls. If you create an article on an individual who is NOT guilty of serious crimes against humanity (or at the least against a significant section of society) it WILL be purged unless you list and cite relevant criminal acts they have committed.

# '''PROPERLY SOURCE any article you create''': When creating an article, make sure to include reliable sources. The previous iteration of this wikia was shut down due to having too many unsourced articles. Failure to properly source your article will result in it being purged.

# '''Respect''': All users must respect that reality has many differing views, you will NOT use this wiki to belittle others, mock or generally accuse others of crimes they did not commit.. likewise you will respect admins and other uses. This wiki is for information on people unanimously described as those who have committed severe crimes so we may learn from the tragedies, it is NOT a place to make light of such tragedies or to needlessly spark "flame wars" : respect victims, respect other users / admins and (as strange as it may sound) respect the criminals themselves.. we're here to speak of their actions, not to act as "moral superiors" (thus we can't simply comment "I hate this guy" etc.. give reasons, sources and so on..).

# '''NO New Categories''': We have far, far too many categories to the point where it is unnecessary to have anymore. The only exception to this rule is for countries; you are more than welcome to add the country of origin for an organization, individual, or event. Users who make new categories will be warned and blocked if they persist. The ONLY exception is if you ask an admin first and they approve of it. DO NOT add categories that have been deleted or set for deletion. Always check the category's page before doing anything!
