These are the Rules specifically relating to the creation of pages and additional material.
Page Creation
Basic rules
- All pages must have a single Infobox and at least one paragraph of written text in the Introduction, no shorter than four complete sentences.
- The minimum information that is required to be filled out in an Infobox is: Name, Author, Role, Alignment, Species, and Sex (if applicable). Read more in-depth information here.
- All pages should be written formally in a report style and format, not a story or character/author interaction. For example, the words 'Once upon a time' should never appear on an article unless it's a character quote.
- Correct grammar, punctuation and sentence structure is also extremely important.
Characters
- Check Page Organization for further elaboration on Article structure.
- All characters added to this wiki must be Undertale-based; meaning that they must originate from an Undertale story. If the character author expresses a desire to distance their character from these Undertale-based origins, this wiki will respect their wishes and such articles will not be created.
- The connection to Undertale must be clear, so OCs that show no ties to Undertale at all besides simply being stated as such are not allowed.
- Characters originating from other franchises are not allowed, even if they come from a crossover AU.
- Characters created for the purpose of being added to a single AU (ie. Betty from Glitchtale) are not allowed here. They should be put on their own dedicated wiki or the Undertale AU Ideas Wiki.
- Characters that are Out!Codes, in that they traverse the Multiverse, being capable of moving between multiple AUs (ie. Ink!Sans or Error!Sans), are allowed here.
- Characters that appear in multiple AUs (ie. Red) are allowed here.
- However, they can not be variants on characters in the base game (for example, Sans).
- OCs based on cut characters, such as Doge or Robot 99, are an exception to this and are allowed to be added.
AUs
- AUs are not allowed here. They should be placed on the Undertale AU Wiki.
Items/Locations
- Items/Location are not allowed here. They should be placed on their own respective wiki or the Undertale AU Ideas Wiki.
Templates
- Creating templates is strictly forbidden. Use the {{Infobox OC}}.
Addition material
- All art must be credited, even if it was created by you.
- Recoloring an image does not make it yours, you must credit the original creator.
- Minor edits to images (such as the adding of eye patches or similar) does not make it yours either.
- If you, for some reason, do not know the name of the artist, clearly state that is the case and provide a link from where you obtained the piece.
- AI-generated art is allowed to be posted on this wiki, but it must be watermarked stating that it is AI-generated and which generator was used.
- Repeated failure to credit artists will see you being blocked and your pages deleted.
- Music and videos must also be credited
- The file should be named something sensible prior to upload.
- If an artist specifically states that no one is allowed to use their artwork, then you are not allowed to re-post it here either, credited or otherwise.
- Please note: If the author/artist requests something to be removed, even if you have given credit, it will be removed. This is true for both the wiki and AU/group projects. Their rights override yours.
- Side note(to the authors/artists): You must be able to provide some sort of proof that it is yours. Such as on the source material, put that you don't want it to be used.
