Adventure Academy Wiki:User Page Policies

On Adventure Academy Wiki, user pages are in general used as a user "profile," with information on user activities, ranging from what pages they edit, what rights they hold, what groups they are a member of, etc. However, Adventure Academy Wiki does have a number of policies that apply to user pages that limit what they may include. Restrictions apply to the site-wide user profile aspects such as usernames, nicknames, avatars, signatures, and bios and to the wiki-wide user profile.

Text Content on Profile Pages

 * 1) Do not post blacklists or "enemy lists" of other users. Users should not make a list of users they dislike or wish to discredit on their user page. Adventure Academy Wiki should keep a positive environment and users should not intend to negatively mention other users on their user page.
 * 2) Do not use foul language, curse words, or unblocked variants of blocked terms to avoid publishing blocks. Users that cause these terms to be present on user profiles will have their "contribution" removed and will be provided a warning.

Code on Profile Pages

 * 1) If you get someone's permission to use their code, provide a credit to them somewhere that can be spotted by a moderator.
 * 2) Do not take user page codes if it's labelled "not free to use" or under a similar license or attached message. This includes copying, minimally editing, and passing off as one's own. Moderator discretion can be used if you think that it's possible that your code was taken. Users breaking this rule will receive a warning and a forced removal of code.
 * 3) If user pages are not marked with "not free to use", and the code is taken, but the user wants it removed, then they can contact a moderator to remove it. The person who took the code will receive a notice that they can no longer use the code. Repeat offenses will result in a warning.
 * 4) If you took your code from someone else, you cannot claim it as stolen from you. Only the original owner of the code can take issues with it. If it's from anything in Fandom, then you must provide credit.

Media on Profile Pages

 * 1) Users may use up to three copyrighted images on their user pages as long as those are being used on content articles of the "Main" namespace. Users may upload a maximum of 3 off-topic images for use only on their user space.
 * 2) Do not use fair-use images related to Adventure Academy or the Adventure Academy Wiki unless already used elsewhere. Fair use images of the game or the wiki, any screenshots and images that are under the fair-use license, can only be used on user pages if the image is already uploaded and is in use elsewhere on the wiki. Only up to three of these images should be used on user pages.
 * 3) Users may only post links to video or audio playlists, videos, and audio files that they themselves created and already uploaded to another well-known non-FANDOM database. Of these types of files, up to three of each may be applied at a time, whether they are a part of a code or not.
 * 4) Reserve wiki galleries, image groups, or slide galleries of over 10 self-made images to your profiles on other communities.

Readability on Profile Pages

 * 1) User pages not include text that is hard to read, overly saturated colors, or excessive glitch text. Readability will be enforced with moderator discretion. If conflict arises, users can request to have a contrast checker be used.
 * 2) If a user is found to have under a 25% color contrast of text over background or text over shadow in their profile, the the text will be edited by a moderator to the color with the highest contrast using hexcode. The user(s) that caused low contrast on the profile will receive a
 * 3) If a user is found to have excessive glitch text or text distortion (e.g. Zalgo text) on their profile, it will either be removed or converted into "normal" text of the same font properties by a content moderator.

Inactivity

 * 1) Global staff reserve the right to, no matter what level of your inactivity on this community, blank your user page and make changes while assuming good faith. If editing abuse occurs, contact global staff
 * 2) If a user is inactive for a period of 2 or more months, local staff reserve the right to blank your user page and clean up image and link clutter. This edit can be undone by the user if said user returns to Adventure Academy Wiki.

Editing and Protecting Other User Profiles

 * 1) Only global staff and local staff may edit other user profiles under staff protocols already posted on other policy articles in the Adventure Academy Wiki or Community Central. They must do so under good faith.
 * 2) Users that are not global or local staff members that edit other user profiles will receive a warning. Three present warnings of this type will result in a block lasting at least one month. These edits will be forcibly undone, back to the most recent decent edit. The only exception to this rule is if one non-staff user is given permission within one of the interacting users' message walls and can be seen by a moderator.
