Welcome
Welcome to the Tokyo Mew Mew Fanon Wiki! We always love getting new users and are very excited to hear about your fanfiction(s). In order to keep things going as smoothly as possible for you and all other users, we kindly ask that you take a minute to read these rules before going ahead and making your pages.
Rules
There aren't a lot of rules around here, so we kindly ask that you try to follow the ones we do have as best you can.
- No trolling or flaming.
Everyone is here to have fun and while honest criticism can help someone grow as an author, attacking someone for the sake of being mean contributes absolutely nothing.
- No Drama
Starting drama with another user (whether it's related to their fan fiction or personal matters) or being generally petty and rude will earn you a warning, as will actively participating in drama and/or insulting other users.
- No editing other user pages without their permission
Small edits like fixing spelling or grammar errors, correcting mistakes, or adding proper categories are okay, but content edits should be approved by the person who created the page. If someone has edited one of your pages without your permission, just let an admin know so that they can revert the edit and warn the person who did it.
- No inserting false information into canon articles.
This is self explanatory: don't put fake information into canon articles. Making a mistake on information is okay, but please do not actively sabotage canon articles.
- No swearing
Many fans of TMM are quite young so we ask that users keep swearing to a minimum and that all fanfictions have proper warnings for any mature content (excessive violence, sexual content, etc.).
- No users under 13 years of age
Many fans are young, and in accordance with Wikia policy, we will be required to ban any user we find out to be under thirteen years of age (the ban will expire on that user's thirteenth birthday).
- No copying/stealing ideas (concepts, art, writing, or otherwise)
We've had a lot of issues with this in the past, and many pages, stories, characters, and sentences from some users have evidently taken inspiration from that of other users. Please understand that everyone works hard on the things they make, and having someone turn around and steal their exact concept, art, or writing leaves the original creators with an awful feeling. We ask that you DO NOT copy and paste text from other people's pages and paste it onto your page (or in some cases, copying and pasting while changing just a few sentences or adding just a little bit of information to make it look original).
It is okay to be "inspired" by what someone else has created themselves, as this is much of how the creative process works. But we prohibit theft. If you like the concept of something or the way something was written or structured, try doing something new with it and making it your own rather than lifting directly from another user's pages. Use special code or formatting to give it your own unique style, or write out an idea that you got from someone else's page but in your own words and without borrowing all that much from them. It will both give you a chance to practice your writing and prevent you from looking like you stole from another user. We encourage creativity here at the wiki, so please actually try to be creative with your work!
- No giving out personal information
Your full name and pictures of you should not be shared on the wiki. If your display name is a full name we believe to be your real name, we will ask you to change it (but if it's something like "Momomiya Ichigo" we won't say anything because that's obviously a reference to a fictional character). Similarly, pictures you claim to be of yourself will be deleted.
- No excessive, needless edits on your pages
If you have a lot to work on or are the kind of person who constantly feels the need to fine-tune your work, massive edits are fine and expected. But if you are adding categories at random that have absolutely no reason to exist, making random short pages, adding irrelevant images to existing ones, or adding irrelevant information to pages constantly, you are breaking this rule. Do not just create pages with random sentences or images on them. Your pages must have a reason to exist, your content must be original, and you need to actually put effort into what you do.
- Credit images that aren't yours
Whether you're posting a picture of random art, a dollmaker image, or a base, you must give proper credit where applicable. If you're using another user's art from an external site, please be sure to get permission from them to use it first.
If you break any rules, an admin will issue a warning. You get two warnings, then a two week temporary ban from the wiki (time may increase depending on user attitude and severity of offense). After that ban ends, you get one last warning before receiving a permanent ban. This all depends on which rules you broke. Less severe offenses will be less strictly regulated.
If you have any problems with anything at all don't hesitate to contact an admin. We're here to make sure everyone stays safe and has fun!
Language
This is primarily an English-language wiki and we kindly ask that in your pages and fanfictions you use proper spelling and grammar to the best of your abilities. We understand that some people aren't good with things like spelling and that being grammatically correct can be difficult for those users who have English as a second language, so this is less of a rule and more of a recommendation. All we ask is that you try your best to write up pages in a legible manner. You are more than welcome to ask other users for help if you need it. You are also welcome to create a version of your page in a different language than English if you need to.
