Game Pages

What games are allowed here?

Games inspired by Yume Nikki that are not fangames may be listed on the Games Inspired By Yume Nikki page.

Fan-made Yume Nikki spin-off games are allowed here.

Policy on in-development games

(Although previously we did not allow games without a release on the wiki, that rule has since been changed, but there are now strict guidelines to follow when creating a page for in-development games.)

Games that are in development and have yet to see a first release must remain isolated in the Work In Progress category until its first release. This includes any other pages associates with this game. These pages should have: {{NotReleased}} at the top.

Games that were canceled before their first release must remain isolated in the Abandoned/Unreleased Games category. This includes other pages associated with this game. These pages should have {{NotReleased2}} at the top.

Policy on Ex-Fangames

If a developer announces their game is no longer a fangame, their game page should be added to the Ex-Fangames category and any future releases of this game should NOT be posted to this wiki.

This message should appear at the top of the game page:

** It has been stated by the developer that as of all future updates, it will no longer be a fangame. (Do not update page to new versions of the game. We will keep it up to chronicle it.) **

If a developer announces their game is no longer a fangame before the game was ever released, it should be removed from the wiki. If a game was never released as a fangame and never will be released as a fangame, it should not have a page here.

Character Pages

Character pages must only be created for playable characters. If a game has a number of noteworthy non-playable characters, a character’s table may be created on the game page. (Example)

Character Images

Official art of the character is always preferred.
All character art must be sourced.
If an artist requests their picture be removed, we must respect their wishes.

Soundtrack Pages

Soundtrack pages must only be created for games with an original soundtrack.
If the creator of any of the songs uploaded to the wiki request we remove them, we must respect their wishes.
