Darn:About

From Darn

Editorial Viewpoint

• This wiki will follow the model created by Wikipedia and will become the "Wikipedia for disaster animal relief". This means the Neutral Point of View (NPOV) is the preferred editorial viewpoint.
• Debates in articles will be moved to the discussion/talk section of the wiki pages. Toxic debates will be pushed into special quarantine sections and hermetically sealed. Posts that are libelous will be tossed into the ash can.
• Spam happens. Sometimes spam is intentional and sometimes not. If spam looks intentional, the spammer's account will be blocked. A whole lot of space and time will be devoted to handling spam, eventually.
• Pages can be protected or unprotected. The preferred state is unprotected. This page is temporarily protected until there is a team of experienced users to monitor the content. Some special pages will remain protected, since they affect how the wiki works.

Document licensing

This wiki will follow the same license guidelines as the one at Wikipedia. This will assure that content from Wikipedia can be used legally and that this wiki is not held liable for misuse of materials.
