Guidelines/Notability

BogNations Wiki is an encyclopedia for the BogNations Community and BogRealms Minecraft Server.

There are some topics that are questionable whether if it is relevant or notable enough to issue an article on the wiki. The BogNations Wiki Notability Guidelines and Policy is in place in an effort to define a topic's relevance and notability.

Content Definitions
As with many wikis, content falls under three categories: When determining whether a content meets notability, determine:
 * Permitted Content - Content that does not require much discussion and has a large amount of noteability.
 * Limited Content - Content that requires some discussion as some topic contents may not be suitable or necessary for the wiki
 * Prohibited Content - Content that is not vital or relevant to the wiki.
 * If the article is relevant to BogNations, BogRealms Minecraft Server or articles on this wiki
 * If the article has enough notability and credibility to have its own article page
 * If the article has already been created or mentioned in some form on this wiki

Notability Determination
There is no definition in what counts as notable. Notability is determined by the community and ultimately BogNations Wiki admins.

Any user who may question the article's notability can use the  template to begin discussions.

Notable Articles
The following is a list of examples of what is covered however it does not reflect the full list as each page differs:
 * Explicitly major articles of BogNations and BogRealms Minecraft Server that can be identified by most/all community members.
 * Anything that a player has direct access or knowledge to. No articles that only limited players know about.
 * Major events, places, and people in the community and server.
 * Sub-articles to an existing article with a considerable amount of information.
 * Major players in the community (staff, significant contributors etc.)

Subpage or Content Relevance
Content Relevance/Notability Any Subarticles or Articles that have direct relations with another
 * All content of the page must be relevant to the topic itself
 * Any content that has no direct relations with the topic must be removed from the content's page.
 * Must not include too much duplicate information from the original/primary article
 * Must be relevant to the sub-article topic (which can be a bit off from the primary article topic)
 * Must have significant amount of information

Canon vs Legends
Some articles have some form of story/history that helps bring out the article's content. Please try not to mix canon material with legends material.

Canon - Material that is true and exists.

Legends - Material that is composed or theorized.
