This is a policy page for Don't Starve Wiki. It contains widely accepted standards that editors should normally follow. Any significant changes must require community consensus. You can make a discussion in forum. |
Vandalism is prohibited. While editors are encouraged to warn and educate vandals, warnings are by no means necessary for an administrator to block.
Even if misguided, willfully against consensus, or disruptive, any good-faith effort to improve the wikia is not vandalism. Edit warring over content is not vandalism. Careful consideration may be required to differentiate between edits that are beneficial, detrimental but well-intentioned, and vandalizing. Mislabelling good-faith edits as vandalism can be considered harmful.
What you can do ?
- Report vandalism to any active Admins on their message wall.
- Request for protection or deletion of vandalise pages.
- Request for blocking vandals.
- Revert the damage caused by vandalism.
- Apply for Rollback or Custodian to fight against vandalism.
- If a user commits serious disrutpive editing, you may issue a warning {{vandal}} on his/her message wall, such user will be categorised into Category:Vandals List
- If a user commits a little disruptive editing, you may insert {{prevandal}}, or politely remind them not to commit further.
No active admins
