Garfield Wiki

Articles[]

  • Before making drastic changes to an article (especially by removing a large amount of information), you should explain such changes, so that it will be less likely seen as vandalism (reverting blatant vandalism is an exception to this rule).
  • Speculative information is only allowed in the comment section below articles, not directly in articles themselves.
  • When creating articles, make sure they are about topics officially related to Garfield. Articles on unofficial matters (such as fan fiction, or people not confirmed to have worked on any official Garfield features, even if you wish they did) should be avoided. If you’re not sure if a topic is official, try looking up official sources for confirmation. You can also ask an administrator on his/her message wall, use the forum, or bring it up in chat.
  • When creating articles, make sure that the topic in mind doesn’t already have an article on the wiki (unless the article is in bad shape, and you think you can do better by starting over).
  • Certain categories can be used for articles.

Pictures[]

  • Make sure that images you upload to articles are in acceptable condition (i.e. not blurry, grainy, overly bright, overly dark).
    • Also, avoid using pictures of a screen (e.g. TV, computer) taken from a camera, as these tend to be of bad quality.
  • Only official Garfield material may be used for articles (including image galleries), not fan-made material.

Conduct[]

  • While you may ask requests from other people, they have the ability to reject any such requests. In that case, it is best to respect their decision. Avoid pestering them (by repeating your request(s)). Nor should you intimidate/threaten them into doing what you request. Such actions are considered harassment.
  • Cheating people is unacceptable.
  • Do not ask random questions unrelated to Garfield on message walls (this is okay on chat, however).
  • Providing uploads to full episodes/specials/movies of Garfield is prohibited due to copyright concerns.
  • You may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display or perform, or prepare derivative works based on any of the content including any such works without the express, written consent of Garfield Wiki or the appropriate owner of copyright in such works.
  • Pornography, controversial statements (such as those about religion, politics, conspiracy theories) should be refrained.
  • False/unverified accusations towards other users are unacceptable. If you have tangible proofs for an allegation, be sure to bring them up for review.
