Netflix Wiki:General policy

Editing

 * Add appropriate content. Add content that is relevant to the article. Do not post or link to mature or explicit content.
 * Create relevant articles. Articles are for content relevant to Netflix. Do not create articles for irrelevant topics.
 * If you would like to express your opinions, start a conversation or introduce yourself, please do so on comments, messages, discussions or blogs.
 * Edit constructively. Unconstructive edits create the impression that you are editing for the sake of gaining badges or increasing your edit count.
 * Do not vandalize. This includes removing content without a valid reason, deliberately adding false information, renaming a page to an irrelevant/inappropriate name and spamming.
 * Removing blatant vandalism is fine. If you are removing a large amount of content that is not blatant vandalism, it's best to include an edit summary to avoid misunderstanding.
 * Do not plagiarize. If your content comes from elsewhere, you should add references, and it's best to paraphrase.
 * To reference external links, you may add.
 * To reference specific episodes, you may add . (Note: '' are italics marks when editing in source mode)
 * To reference content from other wikis, you may add Wiki url to the bottom of the article to credit the authors.
 * To reference content from Wikipedia, you may add Article Name to the bottom of the article to credit the authors.
 * Do not make mass automated edits without permission.
 * Add appropriate sources and use correct formatting. It is a good idea to use the preloaded templates and look at how other established pages are formatted.
 * IMDb and Wikipedia are not reliable sources. Netflix's official websites and reputable news outlets can be considered reliable.

Discussion

 * Be kind and respectful.
 * Do not insult or belittle other users.
 * Do not discriminate against others for any reason.
 * Do not intimidate or harass users.
 * Do not impersonate others.
 * Do not post or link to mature or explicit content.
 * Do not use sexually suggestive language that is directed towards another person or obscene language.

 * posting specific words, images or links excessively
 * posting nonsense
 * the promotion of scams
 * Do not send provoking messages to anger or offend other users.
 * Do not engage in disruptive behavior or heated arguments. Do not troll.
 * Do not solicit or spread the personal information of users.

Others

Use common sense. Not every situation may be covered by these rules. The spirit of this policy will be followed. Atypical situations will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Attempting to circumvent these policies with loopholes will not be tolerated.

Breaching the policies above may result in a warning and/or block.

Recommendations

 * 1) Preview before publishing. This allows you to pick up on minor errors such as red links and spelling mistakes that you can fix before publishing.
 * 2) Include references. When adding information about facts and events in the real world, you should include references.
 * 3) Use a neutral point of view when editing.
 * 4) Include an edit summary, especially if you are making an edit where the intent may not be clear (e.g. removing large amounts of information).
 * 5) Follow the layout guide to make sure the articles are consistent.
 * 6) Use cite templates to indicate information that needs citation. Note that this template should only be used if it is probable that the information is accurate. If not, it should be removed.

If anyone has any concerns or suggestions regarding this layout guide, they can discuss it on the talk page or leave a message on an active admin's wall.
