Keep in mind that uploading potentially offensive or disturbing things (such as chat logs of Daniel talking to people he believes to be minors) are not explicitly disallowed.

=== Privacy[edit source] ===
=== Privacy ===
No detail is too small for this wiki ''when it helps paint a more complete picture of the story''. This wiki strives to be a comprehensive resource about '''Daniel Larson''' while maintaining ethical standards. As such, we have specific guidelines regarding the inclusion of individuals who may have interacted with Daniel in ways that are not directly related to his activities. These trolls are commonly referred to as "management," or something adjacent, but for clarity, you can also think of them as "Characters."

=== Self-promotion[edit source] ===

If you start advertising your own projects, even if Daniel related, it will be deleted. If found doing this, you’ll be given a strict warning. If you're seen doing this multiple times, you'll subsequently be blocked. Supporting fellow creators is good, but this is not the place to do so, especially when time advertising can be used editing articles.

Often times, people will fabricate news about Daniel vandalizing the DL Wiki. Don't try to vandalize under Daniel's name, it won't work, we '''will''' know it's you.

=== Harassment[edit source] ===
=== Harassment ===
It is not permitted to threaten people with things such as doxing, violence, etc. This is often tied with vandalism, namely vandalizing a user page with harassing remarks or insults. If you need to contact a user about an issue, or to have it resolved, you should direct yourself to the unofficial DL Wiki Discord, or their respective contacts.

=== Inappropriate Usernames[edit source] ===
=== Inappropriate Usernames ===
Creating an account with a username that has things such as hate speech, slurs, or harassing language in it is not tolerated, as well as impersonating other people (especially Daniel). You will be promptly banned if you violate these rules. Additionally, please do not create multiple accounts, too, unless you have a reason. (Ex: Forgetting your password, etc.)
