Site Rules

WARNING!

UNEDITED AUTOMATED TRANSLATIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED AND WILL BE DELETED!


General Rules

1. Don't be a dick!

That's it. The staff of many sites tends to explain in detail what is considered being a dick and what is not and under which circumstances it is OK to be a dick and what circumstances of not being a dick can be treated like being a dick. I'm too lazy for that, so contain yourself and just don't be a dick. If you still are unsure if you are being a dick or not, either take a risk and try it out or read this detailed guide on how not to be a dick.

2. You must be at least 14 years old.

Let's face it: SCP is a pretty mature community. Yes, we can be goofy sometimes, but we can also behave like adults. And there are no exceptions from that rule, either you are at least 14 years old, or you can't enter. It's like buying alcohol in a liquor store: You do not meet the required age - you must leave, but you are free to come back later.

Translation Rules

Requirements

Before translating an article, make sure you are allowed to. Maybe the author or licensee wants to keep control over the translation or translate their work themselves. There are authors that do not want their work translated. Although anything under the license CC BY-SA can be used by anybody, if the branch in question does not have a specific rule for this, we want you to either:

  • Be the original author or another licensee
  • Ask the author or licensee for permission
  • If neither is available ask the respective wiki's staff

Make sure to follow any copyright requirements of the original, especially if images from third parties are used.

Also, this site is for translations considered finished and ready for review. Please use the sandbox of your trust for work-in-progress translations.

If a page contains a script or external service that collects data and/or creates cookies you MUST write a GDPR notice and contact the ULI's staff before you post the article!

Attribution

When you post a translation here, use the Credit Module and/or create an attribution-post in the page's discussion, preferably with this template:

**Article:** SCP-XXX - TITLE
**Author:** [[*user AUTHOR]]
**Original:** LINK TO THE ORIGINAL
**Date of creation:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Translator:** [[*user YOU (SUPPOSEDLY)]]
**Image:** Credits of the image(s) with license

Tags

All translations are tagged with their original tags + the original language (e.g. en) + the language they are translated too as a word (e.g. dutch)

All tags must be in English. Please translate all tags from other branches according to the English tag guide. If that branch is using additional attribute-tags, you may translate and use these too. Please let staff know so we don't delete them by accident. Original in-wiki tags like contest-XY or so are not to be used here.

License

In general, all branches, including this wiki are using the CC BY-SA 3.0 license and everything mentioning SCP, the logo, characters and other original work of the SCP Foundation's branches and sites is under this license.
