{{DEFAULTSORT:Red Sword Of Courage}}
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
 
All [[player character]] pages will be required to follow these specifications.
 
 
===Naming===
 
<div style="margin: 0em 0em 1em 2%;">
 
 
The player character pages should be the complete name of the player character, i.e. <code><nowiki>[[Rogrin Hammershaper]]</nowiki></code>
 
* If the player character name conflicts with another article that article has priority, the player character page can be disambiguated by adding ''PC'' or the "character" in parenthesis. i.e. <code><nowiki>[[Rogrin Hammershaper (PC)]] </nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>[[Rogrin Hammershaper (character)]]</nowiki></code>.
 
* If the player character name conflicts with another player character article then the articles should contain the guild name optionally followed by the server in parenthesis. A disambiguation page can be created.
 
* If there is already a disambiguation page (because the player character name conflicts with articles that are already being disambiguated, then the player character can be added to the disambiguation page.
 
 
The player character page should ''always'' be located under the User page of the character owner, as per the [[WoWWiki:Policy/Naming/Personal_articles|Personal Articles policy]]. For example, [[User:Aeleas/Aeleas Windrunner]].
 
 
</div>
 
 
===Contents===
 
<div style="margin: 0em 0em 1em 2%;">
 
 
All player character pages must contain:
 
 
* The {{tlink|PC}} banner tag at the top of the page.
 
* The race and class of the player character.
 
* The faction the player character is in.
 
* '''At least three (3) sentences in English containing ''useful'' information about the player character.''' E.g. History ([[RP]] or otherwise) of the player character, why the character was created, why the character joined or left various guilds, style of play, etc. After these sentences, the main article may be in another language if the intended audience is non-English.
 
 
</div>
 
 
===Categorization===
 
<div style="margin: 0em 0em 1em 2%;">
 
 
The player character page should also be properly categorized:
 
 
* <code><nowiki>[[Category:Player Characters]]</nowiki></code> - ''Automatically added by {{tlink|PC}} banner tag.''
 
 
 
</div>
 
</div>
 
 
==Not Allowed==
 
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
Posting the following types of information will result in your player character page being edited or deleted:
 
 
* Biased information - The content on a Wiki is meant to be informative, this includes player character pages. Player character pages, like all other, should be written from a neutral point of view and must follow the [[WoWWiki:NPOV|Neutral Point of View Policy]].
 
* In general terms: don't put any material on the page that ''requires'' it to be updated frequently, or is only meant for the player.
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
== Allowed ==
 
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
 
The information here is allowed and encouraged in order to create an informative player character page:
 
 
* A screenshot of the player character.
 
* The guild the player character is in.
 
* The realm/server the player character is on.
 
* Talent spec of the player character and planned changes.
 
* Short stories or history of your player character.
 
 
This is not necessarily a complete list. We do not mind you publishing other information that is useful or interesting to others; but it illustrates the gist of it. Pages in WoWWiki are there for the visitors!
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
== Player Character Stubs ==
 
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
 
Stubs for player character can be created in preparation of expanding the article with more information. If you create a stub, use the {{tlink|Stub/PC}} tag at the top of your article. Player character pages marked as stubs which have not been edited for 30 days will be deleted. '''Your player character page is a stub if it does not contain the [[#Required|required information]].'''
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
== Enforcing the policy ==
 
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
 
* A page not containing the [[#Required|required information]] should be marked <code>{{tlink|Stub/PC}}</code>.
 
 
* A player character page stub should be marked <code>{{tlink|Speedydelete}}</code> after 30 days if it has not been fixed.
 
 
* A page containing [[#Not Allowed|disallowed content]] can be edited to comply. '''Or''' you can mark it with <code>{{tlink|Violation/PC}}</code>, which places it in [[:Category:Pages with possible policy violations]] for someone else to fix.
 
 
* Users that insist on having information on their player character page that is not allowed, and revert improvements others make, will be considered [[WoWWiki:Vandalism|Vandals]].
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
== Summary ==
 
<div style="margin-left: 3%;">
 
 
Please remember that WoWWiki is a place where users go to obtain information about World of Warcraft, not get spammed with useless information. Player characters are certainly a large part of World of Warcraft and can be represented here, but they must follow the proper criteria and not participate in spewing useless biased information or [[Wikisquatting]]. Your target audience is not yourself, it is people interested in WoW. Your player character page should reflect this!
