Acceptable Content
Content posted to simwiki.net must meet the following requirements:
- Family-friendly, acceptable for all ages, no strong language
- Legal content, no full software links (except free, demos, etc.), no hacks, no keys, no mods ported from current sims to other sims (mods ported from old titles okay)
- English language posts, non-English off-site links are okay if relevant (use a translator link when possible)
- Related to simulation software, usually video games, but could be other software like apps, tools, 3d model apps, etc.
- Links only for downloads, no uploads to simwiki.net for mods, skins, tools, etc.
- Respect 'private only' forums such as Trackaholics, GTR2 Endurance, F1 Classic, etc; No linking private files from these sites, link their forum thread instead
- Uploads for displayed content are okay, such as images displayed in the body of a post
- Optimize uploaded images, ideally JPG under 1MB
- No large uploads, ideally nothing over 1MB, but certainly nothing over 10MB (use a download link instead)
Style
- Keep it simple - Prefer a clean, clear, and concise style
Structure
- Do NOT organize content under URL path conventions, just use simple article names
- Ex. Do NOT create GTR2/Field of View, just create GTR2 Field of View or Field of View in GTR2 or similar.
- You can see this policy on Wikipedia where you won't find articles organized under URL conventions
- Do NOT name an article specific to one sim if its content is generally applicable
- Ex. A more general Field of View article might be named Flying Field of View rather than GTR2 Field of View
