As discussed in this thread: http://05command.wikidot.com/forum/t-13839135/discussion:disc-policy-regarding-posting
This policy change would effect:
- http://www.scpwiki.com/site-rules - Site Rules
- http://www.scpwiki.com/deletions-guide - Deletions Guide
Should these previous pages be amended to include the following datum:
All posted works must be written by the user that posts the work, unless specifically noted as being a collaboration between one or more site users that are current members of the SCP-Wiki at the time of publication. Collaborative works must indicate which site users collaborated in the creation of the article in question.
Surviving articles that are improperly attributed will be given a grace period of 48 hours from notification, where poster will be given the opportunity to provide correct attribution. After the expiration of that timer, articles that have not been corrected will be subject to summary deletion, regardless of vote count.
Failure to abide by this policy will result in disciplinary action, according to the usual escalation procedures.
This does not exempt articles from deletion via the standard voting process, should downvotes exceed stated thresholds.
Please vote Yes or No on the previous
||~ Yes ||~ No ||
|| X || X ||
This vote is open to all Operational Staff and above Mod/Admin only and will be open for 1 week.
EDIT: Upon review of the charter, this vote should be limited to Mod/Admin vote only, as it amends the site rules. It is unclear that as a member of Opstaff I have the authority to even call the vote on this. As such, I have been given ex post facto permission to do so by SoullessSingularity via Administrative Fiat.
My apologies to all Opstaff who have voted. I appreciate the token of support to this measure that you have shown, and I regret any confusion that my inattention to detail has incurred.
EDITx2: This has also been added to http://05command.wikidot.com/deletions-guide upon recommendation from the Deletions Team lead.
