Forum:SH:Participation Guidelines draft

I've drafted a new proposed policy called the Participation Guidelines, which can be found here, and I wanted to get your thoughts on it.

This proposed policy merges Star Wars Fanon:Assume good faith, Star Wars Fanon:Civility, Star Wars Fanon:Don't disrupt Star Wars Fanon to make a point, Star Wars Fanon:Don't feed the trolls, Star Wars Fanon:No personal attacks (now part of civility), Star Wars Fanon:Sockpuppet policy, and Star Wars Fanon:Three-revert rule (which I'm not just referring to as edit warring) into one simplified policy. It also eliminates Star Wars Fanon:Impersonation; impersonating other Wikia users is a Terms of Use violation, so we don’t need it in our policies.

Speaking of what we don’t need, we don’t need paragraph after paragraph to describe things that can easily be defined in a few quick sentences, most of which are things people know anyway. This is basic Internet etiquette, and we don’t need to write a novel about it. By merging these policies together, we can bring down the number of policies we have from 30 to 23. That’s nearly 1/3 of our policies right there, which goes a long way to making our policies more user-friendly.

Please let me know what you think. If you all like it, I'll officially post it and merge all the policies together. Thanks! - Brandon Rhea (talk)  21:09, August 30, 2013 (UTC)
