The Create Server Wiki uses the following editorial rules.
Neutral description
- Describe what happened before explaining what participants thought it meant.
- Attribute disputed claims to the person or group making them.
- Do not present either the DPRCH or the Empire as the default narrator.
- Self-described ideology, ranks, and borders should be labeled as such.
Evidence levels
- A completed in-game action needs a log entry, image, or agreement among reliable participants.
- A plan in chat is a plan, not a completed factory, weapon, law, or invasion.
- A joke can be historically relevant, but it should not be treated as a literal confession or policy.
- If accounts conflict, summarize the conflict and avoid declaring a winner without stronger evidence.
Privacy
- Use Minecraft names and relevant Discord aliases.
- Do not publish credentials, private addresses, precise base coordinates, unrelated personal information, or intimate material.
- Do not upload raw private-chat exports to the public wiki.
- First names supplied by the players may appear as aliases, but articles should remain about server activity.
Style
Use clear encyclopedic prose. Jokes, slurs, and graphic material from the chats should be omitted unless necessary to understand a documented event, and even then should normally be paraphrased in neutral language.
