These are common conventions that should be used on Puzzle Wiki. While Wiki:Style Guide is meant to be more "How articles should be presented (Grammatically/Stylistically)", this page is more about "How we should collaborate (individually/as a group)".

Ownership

This is a Wiki for and by the entire Puzzle community. No one owns it. While we have a host, admins, moderators and frequent editors, the wiki still belongs to everyone. This also means that pages you edit may be drastically changed by someone else, as we keep growing and improving. This is healthy for how Wikis grow!

Be Bold

Be Bold! If you have a change in mind, Go for it! Feel free to make changes, there is no "permission process" involved! Discussing ideas in our discord server beforehand is always encouraged, but not necessary.

Bold, Revert, Discuss

However, not every change we make will work. Be Bold, but if someone else reverts your edit, it's time to discuss! We're a community. Take it to discord or the Talk pages. We will have disagreements, but at the end of the way, we'll find a solution that works best!

Consensus

We are a large community, and we'll have authors with different strong opinions on everything! At the end of the day, We follow Consensus on all topics, from little formatting to big site-wide "What do we stand for". Everyone's opinions count, and we finally go with whatever decision most of us can agree with. However, this does not mean it's a strict vote. Some decisions will weigh stronger arguments more, but everyone's opinions will always count equally, whether it be admin, moderator or just a regular editor.
