Mystery Inc.: Scooby Code

Below are the "laws" of the Mystery Inc. Archives, collectively called the Scooby Code. You may not break any of these laws for any reason not given. The consequences for breaking these laws are varied depending on the law broken and are given under the corresponding entry. Laws are organized under categorical headings. New rules may be suggested in the forums or in the comments, as well as suggestions for amendments or repeals. Any repeals must have significant support and be well-justified.

Rule 001
You may not, under any circumstances, participate in hate speech in any form. No warnings will be given and the consequence is a permanent ban.

Rule 002
To undo or revert an edit always requires an explanation. Failure to give one results in a warning; failure to heed warning results in a one week block. After the warning, you are required to give the user whose edit you reverted an explanation within 24 hours. Failure to do so results in a cumulative one week block (i.e. if you neither heed a warning (undoing two edits without explanation) nor give an explanation, your ban will be two weeks).

Rule 003
Users with pornographic or offensive profile images will be given a warning. Failure to heed this warning within one week will result in a permanent ban, only lifted once the user changes their profile image.

Rule 004
Abuse of administrator privileges and powers ("admin abuse") will result in not only a removal of administrator status, but also a one year ban. As such, any reports of admin abuse are taken very seriously and should be well-founded with strong community support.

Rule 005
No fan-art, cosplay, pornography, or off-topic images. Your image will be immediately deleted and you will be given a warning. Failure to heed said warning results in a three day ban.

In other words, Mystery Inc. wiki is not a place to store your images. Any images not used in an article may be considered "off-topic."

Rule 006
No watermarks. Watermarked images will be deleted. Exceptions may be made if the watermark is small and/or hard to notice or if the image is more valuable than the watermark is detrimental (for example, rarities or certain official media).

Rule 007
No pictures taken with a camera. Such pictures will be deleted, unless justified.

Rule 008
No duplicate images. You may replace an image with one of higher quality if necessary.

Rule 009
Pictures must be named appropriately and legibly. Inappropriate or illegible names will be renamed. If a suitable name cannot be found, the image will be deleted. A warning will be given. If the warning is not heeded, a one week ban will result.
