These are the rules that every user is required to follow while visiting the PAW Patrol Wiki. Intentionally breaking these rules will result in your account/IP address being temporarily (or permanently) blocked from editing, commenting or leaving messages. For information about consequences, click here.
Basic Rules
- You must be at least 13 years old to edit this Wikia. This is one of the primary rules of Wikia's Terms of Use.
- Due to vandalism and immaturity from anonymous IP users in the past, you must be logged in to an official Wikia account to edit, comment, or send messages on this wiki. Setting up an account is very easy and can be helpful with keeping track of your edits, and it is also more secure.
- Please use the English language when speaking or making edits. An exception to this is on international dub page names.
- Mention of relationships/"shipping" aren't allowed. This is generally fan speculation and belongs on other sites such as forums.
- For your safety and privacy, we ask that you please don't upload a picture of yourself to the Wiki. If you've already done this in the past and want it removed, please don't hesitate to ask one of our admins to delete it.
- This wiki is only for legitimate information. Fanmade episodes, stories or characters should be posted on the PAW Patrol Fanon Wiki.
- Please ask SirBlaze before copying our templates or CSS to another Wiki. It is very difficult to work with the CSS coding, and it is rude to take it without asking and giving credit.
- Spamming senseless or otherwise unnecessary comments will result in a permanent ban. Some examples of this are posting random symbols & letters, single words with no meaning, etc.
- All caps comments are only allowed when being positive. (eg. YAY A NEW EPISODE!) Comments that appear to be negatively screaming will also be removed.
- The PAW Patrol pups do not like to hear bad language. Any comment, blog post, talk page, or any edit involving any obscene or sexual language is against the rules.
- No spamming in the comments. Comments like these are a waste of time and do not need to be here, period.
- Advertising isn't allowed. This includes promoting fanfiction stories, groups, or other websites outside of Wikia.
- Commenting in mass is considered spam. (eg. Making 20 comments in less than 10 minutes)
Editing Behavior
- Vandalism is not tolerated. Vandalizing is editing a page to include false or silly information, or making the entire page blank. For example, changing one word to an obscenity will be reverted.
- When uploading images to a page, please ensure that it is a screenshot or graphic of the show. Pictures of a television/screen taken on a camera aren't accepted.
- Pictures that have graffiti on them are also unacceptable (eg. A picture of Marshall that was drawn on using Microsoft Paint)
- Some unrelated pictures are allowed on blog posts and profile pages.
- If you find the name of a new episode that isn't on the Wiki yet, please provide a link of it to an administrator before creating it.
- Renaming a page is fine if there is some sort of spelling mistake/typo.
- Please do not revert/undo an administrator's edit unless there is a typo they didn't notice.
- All episodes and their Transcripts, Trivia, Gallery and Quotes will be protected for 2 hours after the episode airs in the eastern timezone; the protection will be removed 2 hours after the episode airs.
- Abusing edits for the sole purpose of getting achievement badges isn't tolerated. Badges are meant to be a reward for legitimate work.
Personal Behavior
- Threatening, bullying, or any form of harassment towards another is not tolerated. Doing so will result in a block and possibly a report to Wikia Staff.
- Heckling someone for liking the show or being above the target demographic is also considered harassment.
- A user is not to negatively call out another user in a comment or blog post.
- Please do not claim to be someone else, such as a voice actor or producer without reliable proof.
- Please don't ask to become an administrator directly. Administrative status can be earned by editing frequently, and proving that you're capable of holding the status.
- Editing someone else's profile page is not allowed unless they gave you permission.
- Please refrain from mentioning subjects relating to religion.
Being Blocked/Banned
- If you are blocked for a valid reason, please don't come back on a different source such as your phone or another computer. That will also be blocked (unless you kindly appeal your block with manners).
- Please don't harass an admin on a different Wiki about being blocked. However, if you have a peaceful, valid reason as to why you think the block should be shortened or lifted, that is fine.
