I’ve always had an interest in wiki-like websites, so I created my own, for what I think is the truth, for my opinions (otherwise I would’ve just joined Polandball or Polcompball wiki). I always get the final say. I payed the money to keep this site running. If you want a more free space to edit, or are mad about the things I put on this wiki, I would suggest you go edit the Polandball and Polcompball wiki instead.

I’ve always had an interest in wiki-like websites, so I created my own, for what I think is the truth, for my opinions (otherwise I would’ve just joined Polandball or Polcompball wiki). I always get the final say. I payed the money to keep this site running. If you want a more free space to edit, or are mad about the things I put on this wiki, I would suggest you go edit the Polandball and Polcompball wiki instead. This website is anti-communist and conservative. This website is not suited for communists, socialists, modern leftists, progressives, feminists, LGBTQ affiliated people, and atheists.

Rules

  • Be civil. Don’t make personal insults, and don’t use swear words.
  • Don’t vandalize.

Page Creating

  • When you create a page, don’t just leave it there with almost no content. At least make it decent.
  • Make sure I have a drawing of the character of the page you’re making.
  • Redirects are not allowed since there’s no way to remove them from the search bar and they look bad on the search bar. Until MediaWiki adds back the feature to exclude redirects or have the search bar be like Wikipedia’s, redirects are forbidden. (File redirects are allowed)
    • Common name mistakes:
      • The page for “Soviet Union” is Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
      • The page for “Nazi Germany” is German Third Reich
      • All “abbreviations” (such as NATO) are written in their full name (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) unless the abbreviation is just a collective of words/names that do not make a sentence (such as BRICS and GUAM), or if it’s an ideology named after a person who’s name is commonly abbreviated (such as George W. Bush Thought).
  • In names, use ' instead of ’ (“People's Republic of China” instead of “People’s Republic of China”)

Editing Guide

  • When editing, make sure to log on to your account. It makes us easier to identify who you are.
  • Each page should have the image drawn by me ( Heterodontosaurus) in their infoboxes.
  • There should be the official name, native name (Latin name if there is no native name), and the year they started and ended to exist.
  • The infobox should also have predecessor and succeeder (if they have one).
  • An introduction is needed, followed by a history section.
  • In the introduction, the character’s name should be mentioned and bolded.
  • All sections (except for the Gallery section, Notes section and in some cases, the Anthem section) should be before the How to Draw section.
  • Put a space between text and icons. It looks better.
  • Refrain from using swear words. If you use swear words, censor them. The only case a “swear” is allowed is that if it is part of a name.
  • Every mention of a country, ideology, language or person that is not the page’s subject should have an icon and link.
    • For people, link them to their closest ideologies. If you don’t know, link them to their country of origin.
