Welcome to the wiki! This is a community-maintained resource for documenting gacha games and sharing useful information with other players. Everyone is welcome to contribute, regardless of which games they play or how experienced they are.
To keep the wiki useful, reliable, and enjoyable for everyone, please follow these rules when editing pages or interacting with other contributors.
1. Be Respectful
- Treat other contributors with courtesy, even when you disagree with them.
- Criticize information, edits, and ideas rather than attacking the people behind them.
- Do not harass, threaten, insult, or deliberately provoke other contributors.
- Do not publish other people's private or personal information without their consent.
Disagreements are normal. Personal attacks are not.
2. Keep Discussions On Topic and Avoid Unrelated Controversies
- Keep edits and discussions relevant to the game, the page, or the purpose of the wiki.
- Do not use wiki pages or discussions to promote unrelated personal, political, religious, or ideological disputes.
- Do not use game-related content as an excuse to start arguments between communities, fandoms, or groups of players.
- Sensitive or controversial subjects may be documented when genuinely relevant to the game, but must be presented neutrally, factually, and in context.
- Do not add inflammatory commentary, provocative framing, or unrelated opinions simply to attract attention or provoke a reaction.
The goal is not to prohibit every controversial subject. It is to document relevant information without turning the wiki into a platform for unrelated disputes.
3. Keep Factual Documentation Separate from Opinions
The main purpose of the wiki is to provide useful information about games. Please distinguish factual documentation from personal opinions and evaluations.
- Use regular article pages primarily for factual information, game mechanics, guides, reference material, and other useful documentation.
- Use the Discussion tab to discuss article content, suggest changes, debate interpretations, or share opinions related to the page.
- If you want to publish a personal suggestion, review, ranking, tier list, or evaluation as a standalone contribution, you may create a separate page with a title that clearly identifies it as an opinion or evaluation.
- Clearly label subjective content. For example, use titles such as
Character X — Personal Evaluation by UsernameorGame Y — Player Opinion by Username. - Do not present personal opinions, predictions, or disputed interpretations as universally accepted facts.
- Do not repeatedly insert personal arguments into factual articles after they have been moved to a discussion or opinion page.
Personal evaluations and suggestions are welcome as long as readers can distinguish them from established facts. Opinions should be judged on their relevance and presentation, not simply on whether other contributors agree with them.
4. Contribute Useful and Accurate Information
- Make edits that improve the accuracy, clarity, completeness, or organization of the wiki.
- Do not deliberately add false information, misleading claims, fabricated sources, or content intended to deceive readers.
- Distinguish confirmed information from speculation, leaks, rumors, predictions, and personal opinions.
- When practical, provide sources for claims that are disputed or difficult to verify.
- For character rankings, tier lists, reviews, and strategy evaluations, explain the criteria and assumptions behind your conclusions where appropriate.
- Do not present subjective rankings or community opinions as objective facts.
- Respect the context of each page. Avoid irrelevant commentary, personal grievances, and repetitive content.
Mistakes happen, and good-faith corrections are welcome. Deliberately misleading readers is not.
5. Do Not Vandalize or Abuse the Wiki
The following behaviors are not permitted:
- Deliberately deleting, corrupting, or replacing useful content without a legitimate reason.
- Repeatedly undoing other people's edits without constructive discussion.
- Spamming pages, discussions, or edit summaries.
- Using multiple accounts or other means to evade restrictions or manipulate discussions.
- Creating disruptive edits or accounts to interfere with the community.
- Exploiting technical weaknesses or deliberately interfering with the site's operation.
- Using pages, comments, or edit summaries to harass others or repeatedly provoke conflicts.
Good-faith editing disagreements are not automatically vandalism. However, repeatedly disrupting pages after an issue has been explained may result in editing restrictions.
6. Resolve Disagreements Constructively
- Explain your reasoning when challenging a substantial edit.
- Use the Discussion tab to resolve disagreements instead of turning edit histories into arguments.
- Do not repeatedly revert the same disputed changes in an attempt to force your preferred version.
- Be willing to reconsider your position when presented with reliable evidence or reasonable arguments.
- If a disagreement cannot be resolved, document the issue and leave it for the wiki owner or an appointed moderator to review.
No contributor owns a page simply because they created it or have edited it the most.
While a dispute is being reviewed, contributors should avoid repeatedly changing the disputed content. Where practical, keep the last reasonably stable version in place until a resolution is reached.
7. Reporting Problems and Moderation
This wiki is open to community contributions. However, maintaining a welcoming and useful environment requires everyone to help address abuse and disruptive behavior.
If you encounter a problem:
- Discuss it calmly when appropriate. For ordinary editing disagreements, explain the issue on the relevant Discussion page and try to reach an agreement.
- Document the problem. If behavior appears abusive or disruptive, provide the relevant page links, edit history, or other available evidence.
- Contact the wiki owner. Until moderators are appointed, the wiki owner will review reported issues and decide what action is appropriate.
- Allow time for review. Avoid escalating the dispute, repeatedly reverting edits, or organizing others to confront the contributor.
- Respect the outcome. If you disagree with a moderation decision, raise the issue calmly with the wiki owner rather than starting another conflict.
Reports should focus on specific behavior and its impact on the wiki, rather than personal dislike of a contributor or disagreement with their opinions.
8. Enforcement and Consequences
Depending on the severity, frequency, and circumstances of a violation, the wiki owner or an appointed moderator may take one or more of the following actions:
- Explain the relevant rule and request a correction.
- Issue a warning.
- Revert or remove disruptive content.
- Temporarily restrict editing or block an account.
- Apply a longer-term or permanent block for serious or repeated abuse.
Minor mistakes and good-faith misunderstandings should generally be handled with guidance or a warning. Serious misconduct, such as threats, doxxing, deliberate vandalism, or attempts to evade an existing block, may warrant immediate action.
Moderation decisions should be based on observable behavior, available evidence, and consistent application of these rules. A contributor should not be penalized merely for expressing an unpopular but relevant opinion in an appropriate place.
As the community grows, the wiki owner may appoint additional moderators and establish further procedures. Moderators are expected to follow these same rules and act fairly, including when handling disagreements involving themselves.
9. Use Common Sense
These rules cannot cover every possible situation. Please consider whether your actions help maintain a useful, welcoming resource for the community.
A behavior does not need to be explicitly listed here to warrant intervention if it clearly undermines the wiki's purpose, disrupts the site, or prevents others from contributing constructively.
If you are unsure whether an edit or discussion is appropriate, use the relevant Discussion page or ask the wiki owner for guidance.
By contributing to this wiki, you agree to respect these community rules.
Thank you for helping make this a useful, reliable, and welcoming resource for everyone!
