The Death Mage Wiki is a community project run entirely by volunteers to provide information on the Death Mage series. In this section of the wiki, you can find rules and guidelines, collectively referred to as policies. Please familiarize yourself with these.
Most of the policies are self-explanatory, so try to adhere to the spirit rather than the lettering of the rules. In other words, try to approach them with a little common sense. There are very few policies that apply across all of Wikia; the ones that do can be found at their policy category.

Collaboration is key
Wikis are based on the idea that the crowd, collectively, has a greater sum of knowledge than just one individual. That means collaborating with others is the key to creating a successful community. Collaboration means you work together to build, design, and make decisions. No one person owns or rules a community site. Rather, it is built, supported, and owned by all participating community members.
Good faith
Since sites are open for anyone to edit, users of all skill levels and opinions are welcome to participate. We assume that most people who work on a wiki are trying to help it, not hurt it. If this were not true, a project would be doomed from the beginning. If you think there is a problem, it is best to ask the user about the issue first and then take any additional steps if necessary.
The same practices can apply to users who visit the site to discuss, read, and comment on a page. Everyone has differing opinions and perspectives on topics, so please practice open-mindedness and assume that not everything out there is written with ill intent.
Wiki overhaul
Until December 2021, the wiki did not regulate pseudo-translations, which resulted in displeased visitors and confusing articles. Since then referencing templates has been implemented and admins have been working on cleaning up the large amount of disordered text, and leading to the wiki being in a state of major overhaul ever since. Therefore, even if you do see a messy article, do not let it tempt you into being lazy with your contributions.
