Rules
The rules on the World War II Wiki are meant to keep users in line, have organization, and have correct page editing. They can be found here.
Goals
We all hope that people will experience the joy of creating written works. Don't be afraid to ask a sysop for help, because they will give it to you. It doesn't matter if it's the simplest question, sysops will be ready to answer it! To help us make this a better wiki we will host "Contests" or challenges. These are an attempt to help us complete goals. Our main goals right now are....
- Encouraging others to join in
- Getting the stub amount down to 20%
- Expanding wiki in terms of structure and community
- Increasing page number to 800
Extra Features and Jobs
There are some jobs and that will usually be assigned to by an admin. One of those jobs is being a writer for the newsletter which is meant to do as the name suggests and inform about news on the wiki. Another job like on all wikis is the chat moderator which checks chat and makes sure no one uses bad language or post links to bad websites. If a user has violated these rules 2 times, they will be banned from chat and if the user continues to do the same thing on talk pages and comments, the user wll be blocked. A seabee, is a user who makes templates, organizes categories, and works with the more technical aspect of the wiki. An MP (Military Police) is a type of user that checks around the wiki monitering for bad conduct or bad edits. They will first warn the user then take action if the bad conduct continues. Abwehr agents help track down and delete information copied from other websites.
