HRFWiki2:Fanstuff Guidelines

https://i.imgur.com/OzkGzwT.png Here at the Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki 2, we encourage users to create fanstuff. The original fanstuff wiki was meant to showcase fanstuff of genuine quality and substance, but it was eventually filled with enough poor fanstuff that it had to be closed. We've implemented the following guidelines to prevent this from happening to us. We regret having to be legalistic about this &mdash; the wiki is supposed to be lighthearted and fun, after all &mdash; but we have grown to the point that having these standards is necessary, and simply giving free rein in this area is counter to the goals of the wiki. All fanstuff is subject to the following standards:


 * I kill familys. Only kick my ass if I get in trouble.
 * Keep it professional. Grammar is strongly recommended on this wiki to make fanstuff easier to read. Intentionally bad grammar is fine, as long as you make it clear that it is so. Excessive capitalization, punctuation, and bold text are also discouraged. Also, consider the length of the page. If your fanstuff is a paragraph or less, perhaps it would be better suited as a subpage (see below). If a fanstuff is incomplete, add a stub tag to inform readers that more content will be added.
 * Keep it Homestar Runner. Due to the nature of the wiki, fanstuff is expected to take place in the Homestar Runner universe. You are allowed to expand on this universe with your own characters and ideas, or include content from the Brothers Chaps' side projects (Two More Eggs, Thorax Corp., etc.), as long as they do not make up the majority of your fanstuff. Unrelated content may be posted on the forum or Discord server.
 * Keep it true to the Brothers Chaps' vision. For the most part, fanstuff should be lighthearted and humorous, and the characters should be written how they would normally act. No one wants to read a 500-page fan fiction about Strong Mad's dark spiral into depression.
 * Use subpages to organize your fanstuff. If your fanstuff uses multiple pages, these must be organized into "subpages" of the main fanstuff page. For example, if your email show is called "Mr. Bland Emails", and the first email is called "homestar", don't create the page homestar; instead, create Mr. Bland Emails/homestar. That way, if someone else wants to create a page titled homestar, they are free to do so. More information here.
 * Add it to the fanstuff portals. We have several categories for different kinds of fanstuff. Be sure to add your fanstuff to one of these portals, but only if it follows the description at the top of each portal. If your fanstuff does not fit a specific portal, add it to Misc.
 * Don't edit or plagiarize other users' fanstuff. Most edits to other users' fanstuff will be reverted, and if this continues, you could be blocked. There are a few exceptions; for example, if the creator gives you permission, if it has been vandalized, or if it breaks any of the rules. You can also edit fanstuff to change grammatical errors or formatting mistakes, although it is recommended that you alert the user on the talk page instead. The same goes for userpages.
 * Behave in a civilized manner. This goes without saying, but please do not spam or insult other users.
 * If you're not sure, ask a sysop. If you're not sure if something is appropriate, or if it's okay to make an edit to someone else's fanstuff, ask one of our sysops on their talk page. We will try to respond promptly.
