Basic Rules for
FORUM DISCUSSION
threads on "the Tudors" wiki :


  • Remember we all have our opinions, try not to dominate threads by repeating your opinions over & over.

  • Don't attack a person's character even if you disagree with their opinion.

  • Avoid creating cliques or camps (eg. Anne/Elizabeth versus Katherine/Mary camps) . This is divisive and the opposite of what a collaborative wiki stands for.

  • Discussions about Religion & Politics should be in the appropriate context of the series and not for you to advance a personal agenda.

  • Trolling (non-constructive, negative comments for the sake of being disruptive) is unacceptable and will not be tolerated by any user on this wiki, proper response to a troll is to ignore it and contact a moderator who will take appropriate action.

  • Threads or posts will be deleted if they are flame-baiting (attempting to start a non-constructive, contentious argument especially with the use of insulting words). A moderator has the right to delete a post or thread they believe is flame-bait.

  • The discussion forum is not the place to air grievances and any complaints about other members should be made to the moderators, not posted on threads for discussion.

  • Use good netiquette and avoid posting in all capitals as this is considered yelling. If you have issues with using the shift button, it is better to type all in lower case. If you have vision issues, change your monitor settings to a higher resolution.

  • A moderator has the right to delete threads or responses that contain spam advertising, irrelevant content, personal abuse, inappropriate or offensive language or content.

  • Before posting, check the age of the thread as there is no point in posting an answer to someone who is no longer taking part in the wiki discussion. Threads which are really old (ie. more than 2 years old) and many pages are not worth adding to. It is better to start a new thread on the subject.

  • Threads will be locked when they have "run their course" and appear to be degenerating for one of the reasons above but still contain interesting information.
