Yume Nikki Fangames Wiki
Revision as of 11:27, 9 November 2018 by >SpiderRolling (We don't have to stick with the term "quarantined game". Let me know if you think the name should be changed.)

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.

Quarantined Games

  • If a developer deletes downloads to their fangame and requests for their fangame to not be reuploaded anymore, the game's main page will become quarantined.
  • Sharing a download link to a quarantined game anywhere on the wiki is now a ban-able offense. (If it is your first time doing so you may just receive a warning.)
  • The game pages should be locked so only mods and admins can edit. This is to prevent future download link wars between users and mods/admins. These pages should have {{Quarantined}} at the top and a link to the developer's request must be placed in the overview.

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.
