The Sims Wiki talk:Policy

Editing user pages
Based on recent experiences I would like to suggest a policy stating that it is forbidden to edit other users user pages and also forbidden to remove content from their talk pages. -- Duskey talk 01:31, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Support, with limitations - I agree, except in the following cases:
 * 1) When there is content on a page that violates policy
 * 2) When a user allows another user to edit their user page (for whatever reason)
 * 3) when a user wishes to remove a comment they leave on another user's talk page
 * I'd like to see a proposed policy write-up before I voice my complete support for the idea, but the general concept is good. -- Patrick (LostInRiverview) (talk)(blog)(random page) 01:46, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

I decided to write something up; what do you think?

The following rules apply to user pages only:
 * 1) Content on a user's user page cannot contain profanity, and cannot openly attack other users.
 * 2) Links leading off Wikia are heavily scrutinized, and links to websites containing pornography or profane material will be removed and that editor will receive appropriate penalties for profane materials.
 * 3) An editor's user page can only be edited by that editor, unless:
 * 4) That editor allows another person to edit their user page - this must be stipulated in the talk page of the other user.
 * 5) Another user edits a user page to remove profanity or attacks against others.
 * 6) An editor acts in good faith to fix broken links, templates etc. that may have been broken due to improvements on the wiki.
 * 7) Penalties for wrongly editing another person's user page shall vary depending on the severity, and whether the edits made violated any other wiki policies.

The following rules apply to user talk pages only:
 * 1) Each user may decide to delete or archive any comment left on their talk page at any time.
 * 2) No user may delete content on another user's talk page, unless the content being deleted violates The Sims Wiki policies.
 * 3) Users should not edit the spelling, grammar or punctuation of another user's comment on a talk page.
 * 4) Personal attacks, profanity, or links to irrelevant or profane websites on talk pages will not be allowed.

It seems a bit bare to me, so feel free to add or delete anything from the list above. -- Patrick (LostInRiverview) (talk)(blog)(random page) 12:34, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
