{{Proposed policy}}
The Sims Wiki has a dedicated [[The Sims Wiki:IRC Channel|IRC (Internet Relay Chat) Channel]] that is open to all editors on the Wiki and allows live communication between multiple editors in real-time. By using the channel (Freenode/#The_Sims), you agree to be bound by these policies as well as any applicable IRC or freenode rules or terms of use, and acknowledge that violation of policies can result in being kicked or banned from the channel. Note that the freenode IRC channel is not affiliated with Wikia.
The following rules govern use of the IRC Channel:
* There is no official topic of the channel; it may be used to discuss the Wiki, discuss The Sims, or simply to build community. However, discussions on the channel must remain appropriate for a general audience.
* Excessive spamming of the channel, either through inclusion of nonsense or in linking to other websites multiple times even after receiving an administrator warning, will not be tolerated and may result in a kick or a ban, depending on the amount and type of spam.
* Harassment, exploitation of other users, attacks against other users, extreme profanity or repeated cases of profanity, may be addressed by an administrator on the channel, either through a kick from the channel, or a permanent ban from the channel.
===Administrators===
Administrators from this Wiki are marked by 'voice' status and have a + in front of their name. They are able to kick or ban users who do not follow the policies set above. A kick is a temporary removal from the channel and serves as a warning. A ban can have a limited duration or be indefinite, depending on the severity of the case. The duration of a ban will correspond roughly to the existing policies on blocking users from the Wiki.
If you are an administrator on the Wiki, have registered with the freenode network and wish to obtain voice status, contact [[User:Duskey|Duskey]], our IRC channel contact.
''This policy will take effect soon, barring any serious objections or corrections, as identified on the [[The Sims Wiki talk:Policy#IRC Policy|talk page]].''
