==Code of Conduct for the Brass Goggles Wiki==

These are the basic rules and policies for the [[Brass Goggles:About|Brass Goggles wiki]].

The main underlying rule is Wheaton's Rule:
* Don't be a dick

This means various things, including:
* Be polite
* Don't promote political or religious ideology
* No racism, sexism or any other behaviour that discriminates between people

The editting rules are broken into two sections - general pages and pages about specific people or projects, like personas, roleplaying or stories.

=== Editing General pages ===

* As wiki, pages can be be editted by anyone.
* It is more polite to edit when logged into a wiki account than being anonymous.
* The content of pages must have some clear link to steampunk or the steampunk community.
* This wiki cannot be used to advertise products or services.
* This wiki cannot be used for profit.
* This wiki cannot be used as a large scale storage archive of images, files or other content.
* Avoid including links to pages outside of this wiki.
* It is fine to link to threads on the [[Brass Goggles forum]].

=== Editing pages about people & projects ===

* If isn't about you or your project, then you are probably not who should be writing about it.
* It is fine to clarify, format or clean any page.
* If there are multiple pages about a project, then make sure there is some connection between the pages, like a category or wiki link.

If you have any suggestions for changes or additions to these rules, put them in the [[Brass Goggles: Community Portal|Community Portal]].
