Mind Your Language Wiki:Policy

MIND YOUR LANGUAGE WIKI POLICY  Manual of Style Here are MYL Wiki Rules which all users, even the staff, must read and follow. These set limits on users' rights to make the wiki a comfortable, friendly place for everyone. "I didn't know" or "No one told me" will not be acceptable reasons for breaking the rules. If you see anyone break the rules, please contact a staff member.

Guidelines Users =  THESE ARE CARDINAL RULES! IF YOU BREAK ANY OF THEM YOU WILL GET AT LEAST A 1-MONTH BLOCK, SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL.
 * You must be 13+: Any user found to be under 13 years of age will be immediately and permanently blocked.
 * Username and profile picture: Your username must not contain any cursing, spam, or any words that could reasonably offend other users.

 * -|Behaviour =
 * Be nice: No cursing, harassing, threatening, spamming, abusing, attacking, or other offensive actions. Limit the use of bad words, even if you're censoring yourself (e.g. leaving out vowels, using $ in place of s and ! in place of i).
 * Links: No suspicious links (e.g. sexual/offensive content, weapons, malware).
 * Advertisement: This wiki has enough advertisements from Fandom, so don't ask users to visit other wikis, subscribe to a YouTube channel or streaming service, or buy any product or service you're selling without permission. Please note that there is a difference between advertising and suggesting.
