=== <u>What Is Permitted</u> ===
== Content rules ==
* Anything related to this wiki's topic, like characters, cast members, other media, etc.
''For information on how to write articles, see the [[Roger Rabbit Wiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]].''


=== <u>What Is ''Not'' Permitted</u> ===
* All content must not contain slurs or language that is not tolerated on WikiOasis. This applies to articles, files, talk pages, templates, and user pages.
* Vandalism, including adding nonsense/gibberish and removing necessary content, and spam, including spamming comments and external links.
* It is strongly preferred that the text on pages is original and that information from other sources is put into your own words. This is to prevent plagiarism. If you decide to reuse text from another wiki, an example of how to attribute the text is below. Make sure to include links to the page, the revision history, and the wiki itself.
* Sockpuppetry of any form. If your account has been blocked and you return with a new account, the sockpuppet account will be blocked indefinitely and the block on your other account will be changed to indefinite.
** This however is not the case if you have ''moved'' accounts.
* Edit farming, which this wiki defines as making more than 3 changes to an article in a short period of time. Please be careful when editing, and be sure to make use of the "Show changes" and "Preview" buttons to make sure you are happy with your changes before saving.
* Removing "Warning" and "Blocked" threads from your wall. If you remove these threads when currently blocked, your message wall privileges will be taken away (revoked), and your block may be extended.
* Anything unrelated to this wiki's topic.
* Edit warring, which this wiki defines as making counterproductive edits to win a content dispute against another user. Sometimes, edit farming occurs during edit warring.
* False information. Please do not:
** Add it to articles
** Attempt to spread it
* Fanon content.
* Minimodding, which this wiki defines as posing as an administrator or discussion moderator without having the user rights.
* Any violations of Fandom's [https://www.fandom.com/terms-of-use Terms of Use], including but not limited to:
** Abusing, harassing, threatening, or intimidating other users
** Joining when underaged
** Impersonation
** Soliciting personal information

| style="font-size: 90%" | This page uses content from the (replace with name of wiki) page (replace with name of page). The revision history lists the authors. The text on [[Roger Rabbit Wiki]] and (replace with name of wiki) is licensed under the [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ CC BY-SA 4.0 International license].

=== <u>Reusing content from Wikipedia</u> ===
* The text on {{SITENAME}} and Wikipedia is licensed under the [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0)]. However, this wiki does ''not'' allow entire Wikipedia articles to be reused. So, while reusing content from Wikipedia is allowed per [[w:Wikipedia:Reusing Wikipedia content|this page]], entire articles ''cannot'' be reused. There are two templates all users are required to use when creating an article and using content from Wikipedia: [[Template:Wikipedia|<nowiki>{{Wikipedia}}</nowiki>]] for articles that use content from an article of the same or a similar name, and [[Template:Wikipedia2|<nowiki>{{Wikipedia2}}</nowiki>]] for articles that use content from an article of a different name. Make sure to use these templates correctly.
 
== Image rules ==
Watermarked images are prohibited. This includes saving images from stock image websites such as Alamy, Getty Images, and Shutterstock and uploading them here. Make sure that the images uploaded have no watermarks and/or a Creative Commons license. If the image has a Creative Commons license, it can be reused.
 
== Blocking rules ==
Blocks are only to be issued for violations of this wiki's rules. Blocks ''cannot'' be issued if at least one of the following reasons applies to a user:
* The user has not joined this wiki
* The user has only one edit
* The user has not violated any rules
A exception is if the user is a sockpuppet. To request that a user be blocked or to have a pre-existing block be reviewed, you can add a topic to an administrator's talk page. Users who believe they have been unfairly blocked can add a topic to the [[wo:meta:|Meta]] talk page of the administrator who blocked them.


* All text should contain no severe profanity. This applies to articles, user pages, message walls, comments, blog and discussion posts.
== Protection rules ==
{{Main|Roger Rabbit Wiki: Protected page}}
The majority of this wiki's content will remain unprotected to encourage all users to edit. Content will only be protected if necessary, such as for the following reasons:
* Excessive vandalism
* Excessive spamming
* Edit warring
* High traffic
* Protecting the proper display of this wiki, such as the main page and policy pages
To request that content be protected or to have a pre-existing protection level be reviewed, you can add a topic to an administrator's talk page.


=== <u>Use of Wikipedia text</u> ===
== Staff rules ==
* Both [[Roger Rabbit Wiki]] and Wikipedia are licensed under the [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ CC BY-SA 3.0 Unported license]. However, this wiki does '''not''' allow entire Wikipedia articles to be copied and pasted (plagiarized). So, while it is fine to use Wikipedia content, entire articles '''cannot''' be plagiarized.
=== <u>Administrator rules</u> ===
** There are two templates to use if an article has Wikipedia content:
* When a page has been vandalized, only protect it if it has been vandalized multiple times in a short period of time.
*** <nowiki>{{Wikipedia}}</nowiki> if the article uses text from a page of the same or a similar name
* When warning a user about a rule they violated, add a "Warning" topic to the user's talk page.
*** <nowiki>{{Wikipedia2}}</nowiki> if the article uses text from a page of a different name
** In terms of minor instances or if it is the first time they have violated a rule, add a "Notice" topic to the user's talk page.
** Make sure to use these templates correctly.
* Only block users for violations of this wiki's rules.
