Line 1: ~~{{WIP}}~~ {{Help navigation}} On this wiki, we aim to build a comprehensive knowledge base about the world of Dominic Cellini's webcomic ''Emmy the Robot'' and the works of its many creative fans. Our '''content policy''' outlines some principles explaining what exactly is to be documented here, and how. Line 13 ⟶ 12: # '''Pages that feature or refer to questionable content must be prefaced with the [[Template:Warning/Discretion_advised\|appropriate warning]].''' Everyone's sensibilities for what can be considered questionable are different, so err on the side of caution. # '''Questionable content must be kept away from pages that primarily focus on canon material.''' Such content is absolutely not what most people coming to read about canon material will want to see. Links to NSFW fanfiction featuring canon characters must stay on the ~~Fan~~[[List of fan stories\|fan stories subpage]] and not be included onto the main page. # '''Explicit, graphic, or ~~graphic~~fetish images or descriptions of sex or violence must not be uploaded or written to this wiki at all.''' All images and text must be suitable for public viewing or reading. You may mention that a character sustained a severe injury or that two characters have a sexual relationship if you must, but do not go further than is absolutely necessary for context. Again, err on the side of caution. == Writing about own work == As per our [[Emmy The Robot ~~Fan~~Fandom Wiki:Manual of style\|manual of style]], we ask, among other things, that articles are written from a neutral, unbiased point of view, and that sources are properly cited. However, this is often tricky when you are writing about your own work. Try to stay unbiased when writing about your own work. Remember, you are making a page for a knowledge repository, not an entry for a "best character" contest. Also, keep in mind that how you perceive your own creation might differ from the impression others get from it. And try not to spoil your own story when writing about unpublished events! '''Do not make entries on this wiki for the sake of making entries on this wiki.''' Ideally, the wiki should be a repository of information collected from elsewhere, not its original source. While nothing is stopping you from writing a page about a character you've just come up with and citing "own work" as a source, it is going to read a lot like "Source: dude trust me". Thus, if you have conceived a character, consider putting information about them elsewhere first, and then citing it as a source on the wiki. It can be a [https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/117107611/#117125064 post in an ''Emmy the Robot'' thread on /co/], a [https://twitter.com/mithraGVR1/status/1512630055960256516 tweet], a [https://archiveofourown.org/works/38237206/chapters/95535328 short story on AO3], or even just [https://pastebin.com/XaD8W9td character descriptions in a text file on Pastebin], or at the very least a screenshot of a conversation with your friends on Discord. The more verifiable the source is, the better. ~~== Subject notability ==~~ ~~''To be added''~~ ~~alice goes here?~~ == No pages for real people == Line 33 ⟶ 28: == Spoilers == Spoilers to stories or character information is allowed as long as the page has the appropriate [[~~Emmy_The_Robot_Fan_Wiki~~Emmy_The_Robot_Fandom_Wiki:Layout_guide#Header_templates\|warning]] and uses spoiler text, {{Spoiler\|like this}}.
