Wiki rules
Common Rules Staff Guidelines
- Staff are not only to follow all the rules, they are to show HOW to follow the rules. Staff are to set an example for other users on how to behave and how to sustain the balance of the wiki. Any transgression will very likely result in a demotion.
- You are not to commit rank abuse; either by breaking rules, or generally abusing your power. etc.
- Inactivity is an important part of staff selections. Staff members who have been inactive for long periods of time can be subject to demotion and/or concern.
- Punishments should be given out responsibly. Do not punish people for invalid reasons, and give an adequate ban duration.
- Asking for a promotion is frowned upon in most circ*mstances. Promotions usually come in time, when users have contributed to the wiki and have been proven to be beneficial to the wiki in one way or another. If you would like to be promoted, you have to work to earn it.
- Staff are to communicate respectfully to other users, even if a user has broken a rule or two. Assessing situations should be done with respect, consideration and tolerance.
- An add-on to rule 1: If a staff member gets caught harassing or bullying a user - even if that user has broken a rule - they will be subject to a possible instant demotion, or even a temp-ban.
Commenting Policies
- Let your voice be heard! Feedback and opinions on all pastas are very much appreciated. Be respectful, be honest, and don't post anything rude.
- Do not edit other people's comments if it's something other than a grammar fix. Please keep editing to your own comments.
- Make sure that commenting abides by the rules; do not flame or harass anyone.
- Do not have discussions on pages or stories. Discussions are for the discussions forums only. Making repeated comments on a single page, even if it's not spam, is frowned upon.
Writing Criteria
- If your page was deleted, it was because it violated the wiki's editing policy. Deletion happens mainly because it contained spam, hate, or was an irrelevant article. If your article was deleted, you can speak to the user who deleted it on their message wall with a reason of request to restore it.
- Do not make a page that's one sentence long. This is considered making spam pages, and will also be subject to a deletion. Your stories can be long or short, as long as they aren't just a sentence long.
- Good grammar means readable stories. Pages with poor grammar will leave the reader confused and will possibly be subject to deletion.
- Keep pages neat! Make sure your story chapters are on one page only, and not into a lot of different pages for each chapter. Do not fit a whole bunch of pastas onto one page. This will leave the reader confused. Make a page for each story. Making multiple parts to a story allowed.

New rules about workshops: From now, every workshop should be written in your blog (example) or in sub-page of your userpage (example).
This rule was made to prevent wiki being flooded with workshops (because they always very short).

Main Page has been redesigned! Old version can be seen here.

New writing rules have been implemented after a petition to allow non-creepypasta stories saw majority of users vote yes for term 1 (All stories posted here will no longer have to be only creepypastas. Other genres will be allowed.) and 3. (Future stories posted here must mainly take place in Minecraft.). In essence, from now on, all future stories posted here can be written in genres that are not just creepypasta. However, since the wiki has Minecraft in it's name, it should be expected from users to have their stories take place in Minecraft.

WhoWatchesTheToasters and a couple others users organized a proposal for some changes on the wiki which are explained here. Some changes have been carried out, and some have been dropped. A mass demotion of inactive/low-faith staff has taken place. Thanks for your help, Toaster!
