Screamer Wiki:Rules

REMEMBER: Always follow the rules. If you violate any of the rules, you will get banned from the wiki!

How to create/edit a page

The page name must always be the name of the screamer site if it is possible! (without www. or http://)

• Do not create unrelated or spam pages. Please use either the forum, the chat, or your user blog to communicate with other users.
• Never use any scary images or clickable links directly to the screamer page. You are allowed to use un-clickable links. 
• Do not give any false information, but only facts. 
• Use correct grammar and spelling, write in English. (if this rule is violated, your account won't get banned) 
• You are allowed to make pages about shock sites, but remember to add the category Shock sites. 

Good practices

• Delete any scary images, videos or clickable links that go directly to the screamer page and replace them with un-clickable links.
• If you see someone violating any of the rules, tell them by using this template and fix the page.
• If you see someone vandalizing the wiki, fix the page and contact an admin.
• If you see any grammatical or spelling mistakes, correct them.
• If you see any false information, correct it.

How to use categories

There are a lot of categories on this wiki and new ones are constantly being added.

Each screamer page needs a category for TYPE and one for CONTENT.

Type categories

• Animations - add this category if the screamer is an animation (includes Flash).
• Clips - add this category if the screamer is a video (found on any site).
• Games - add this category if the screamer is a game.
• Shock sites - add this category if the screamer is a website containing a disturbing image.
• Websites - add this category if the screamer is a link or webpage that contains an instant jumpscare.

If your page does not fit into ANY of these categories please contact an admin or HLDK.

Content categories

• Exorcist - add this category if the page is about a screamer containing the Exorcist.
• Jeff the Killer - add this category if the page is about a screamer containing Jeff the Killer.
• Other scary images - add this category if the page is about a screamer containing a scary face other than the two listed above.
• Winterrowd - add this category if the screamer is made by Jeremy WInterrowd.

If your page does not fit into ANY of these categories please contact an admin or HLDK.

Other categories

• Closed screamers - add this category if the page is about a closed screamer that does not exist anymore. Please add this HTML code at the top of the page source in any of these pages:  <font color="red">This page is about a Closed Screamer!</font>.
• Graphic content - add this category if the page is about a screamer containing 18+ content.
• Nice articles - awarded to nice articles. (only admins and moderators are allowed to add this category)
• Work in progress - add this category if the page is incomplete, needs more information, or has to be reworked.
