Help:Contenido/Reglas y Lineamientos

Por favor lea estos lineamientos antes de empezar a editar.

¿Qué información puedo añadir?

Añadir este material

1. Contenido no usado todavía presente en el juego.

   • Por Ejemplo: Personajes, niveles, ítemes, objetos, escenas cinemáticas, audios, textos, texturas, funciones, y códigos sin usar.

2. Funciones para depurar (debug)

   • Por Ejemplo: Menus de depuración, depuradores de audio, y selecciones de nivel.

3. Diferencias entre versiones lanzadas.

   • Por Ejemplo: Documentando las diferencias entre la versión Japonesa y la versión Americana de un juego.

4. Prototipos filtrados (leaked) de juegos.

   • Por Ejemplo: El prototipo de Half-Life 2 y el ROM de Debug de la Ocarina of Time.

No añadir este material

1. Prerelease screenshots & videos.

   (Unless you're making a Prerelease page, in which case, you're looking at the wrong set of rules.)
   • Exceptions:
   • A prerelease screenshot or video that shows how something that can still be found in the game's code was originally going to be used.

2. Unreleased games and prototypes for which no publicly-available ROM or disc image exists.

3. Games that have at least one announced release date, but have not been officially released yet.

4. Glitches.

   (Unless you're making a Bug page, in which case, you're looking at the wrong set of rules.)
   • Exceptions:
     • A glitch that has been fixed or introduced in a different version of a game.
     • A glitch that grants players access to unused or debug content.

5. Cheat codes.

   • Exceptions:
     • A code that grants players access to unused or debug content.
     • Level select or sound test codes.
     • Other cheat codes which are newly discovered and not published anywhere else.

6. Minor publisher, logo, or copyright/licensing changes between regions, like changing/adding ©, ™ or ® symbols.

   • Games are frequently published in different regions with different laws regarding copyrights and trademarks. Minor changes (such as adding or changing these symbols) aren't worth adding. Any substantial changes outside of that are fair game, though, like spelling fixes, screen layout changes, or design differences.

7. Common SDK and compiler strings.

   • Check the Common Things page for more details.
   • Exceptions:
     • Strings that contain unique comments, developer credits, or other noteworthy information.
     • However, if the information you want to add can be found in many other games on the same platform, it likely doesn't need to be documented here.

8. Media, Manual, and Goody checks.

   • Although these are forms of anti-piracy, there are way too many games with these, and documenting all of them would just clutter up the wiki.
     • Exceptions:
       • A game that checks for an authentic game copy and modifies gameplay if one attempts to subvert these checks.

9. "Unused" alternate language settings/files for games that saw an official release in those languages.

   • Exceptions:
     • Languages that never saw an official release.
     • Significant differences between used and unused versions of the same translation.

10. Fan games and hacks.

    • Please don't add information about amateur games and hacks created by you or others. If you're not sure, ask an admin.

11. User-generated content.

    • TCRF is not a place to advertise your own content. This includes videos and sites not directly related to the material covered here.

12. Content that was later made available as DLC.

    • Exceptions:
      • Content that was modified or updated before being released as DLC.

13. Games of a highly/extremely pornographic, racist, or otherwise immoral nature.

    • When in doubt, use the talk pages or ask on IRC. That's the best way to resolve whether or not a game should be added.

14. Hidden content from your own recently-released games.

    • Including hidden content in your games specifically for the purpose of documenting it on TCRF at release time robs players of the joy of uncovering your secrets. If you want something to be found, tease its existence to fans, then wait a few years before adding it if no one has succeeded in discovering it yet.

Lineamientos de Edición

Gramática/Ortografía

Procura ser correcto en la gramática, ortografía y puntuación en todo momento. Algunos errores son perdonables, sobre todo si el inglés (el idioma principal de la wiki) no es tu lengua materna, pero ¡por favor, haz tu mejor esfuerzo para revisar tu escritura antes de guardar la página!

Si cometes muchos horrores errores ortográficos, intenta pegar el texto que escribes en un procesador de textos o en un corrector ortográfico en línea como SpellCheckPlus o SpanishChecker antes de presentarlo a TCRF. ¡Esto te ayudará!

Especulación

Avoid adding speculation to articles. If you don't actually know how something was supposed to have been used, don't just make something up, even if it seems to make sense to you. Ensure that there is evidence for your assertions.

However, if you're extremely convinced that you've figured something out that nobody else has, feel free to add your information to the article's talk page.

Opinando

No critique duramente a un juego porque a usted no le haya gustado. Otros lectores podrían estar en desacuerdo.

Humor

Eres bienvenido a utilizar un poco de humor en tu escritura. Sin embargo...

• Don't edit an article, intro, or image caption just to add or change humor.
• Don't overdo it. The focus of TCRF is information, not wit.
• Don't be offensive. Do be politically correct.
  • That being said, our editors are mature and we expect as much from our readers. Some articles may contain humor or language that is not suitable for all ages; please do not change our editors' word choices for the sake of censorship. If you feel an article is overly offensive or politically incorrect, feel free to notify an administrator.
  • Please note that your attempts to be funny by referencing genitalia or sex are not witty or funny and are not welcome here, ever.

"Alpha" and "Beta"

Terms such as "alpha" and "beta" refer to specific points within a game's development cycle. These are commonly (mis)used to refer to all early or unused content in games (e.g. "beta levels"). Since it is often impossible to determine which point in development said content is actually from, we discourage the use of these terms on the wiki. Please use the more generic terms "early", "prototype", or "unused" instead.

• The only exception to this rule is when a game is specifically labeled an "alpha" or "beta" by the developer/publisher (for example, a public beta test of a PC game like Minecraft). If the game is actually an alpha or beta version, please add a note on the game's Talk page and in the Edit Summary box so your edits are not mistakenly corrected.

"NTSC" and "PAL"

These are (now obsolete) analog television standards. Please do not use these terms when referring to the country or region a game was released in, as there can be multiple region- or country-specific versions of the same game that use the same video standard.

• These terms should never be applied to portable systems that did not use analog television standards in the first place!

Multiple edits

When working on a page, instead of committing multiple small edits in a row, please use the Show preview button at the bottom of the wikitext box to preview your changes. When you're satisfied with how everything looks, press the Save page button. To make site administration easier, we have a bot in our IRC channel that reports every page edit in real-time, and "spamming" page edits on the wiki only serves to disrupt conversation and annoy other users in the channel (and clogs the recent changes log to boot).

Vandalismo

Vandalizar cualquier parte del wiki (por ejempo: sustituyendo información válida con tonterías/irrelevancias, o creando páginas con información basura) resultará en una suspensión inmediata y permanente. Si tienes un problema con algo, habla con un administrador. ¡No descarge su agresión en nuestros artículos!

Translation

Do not use machine translators under any circumstances, including those supplied by several popular search engines.

Please see our page on translation rules for detailed guidelines on translations.

Guerra de ediciones

Por favor no deshacer las ediciones de otras personas, a menos que sientas que hayan cometido un error obvio. Esto incluye ediciones que resulten en una página ambigua o engañosa o ediciones que eliminen detalles técnicos. Si te encuentras con esta situación...

1. Undo the edit.
   • ...But never undo changes made by an admin. If you disagree with an administrator's changes, bring it up on the article's talk page.
2. Write your reason for undoing the edit in the article's Edit Summary box.
   • This box can be found underneath the main Edit box.
   • Be polite in your explanation.

Manejando Disputas

Si tienes problemas continuos con otro usuario, o quieres debatir una edición, escribe un cortés mensaje en la pagina de discusión (Talk Page) de un administrador explicando el asunto. Si no entiendes como funcionan las paginas de discusion, visita User Talk Pages para más información.

Ser Suspendido

Si rompes las reglas, haces demasiadas ediciones irrelevantes, o tienes una actitud grosera, podrias verte frente a una suspensión. Recuerda, este wiki es privado, y es un privilegio estar aquí, no un derecho.

Suspensiones temporales

A veces, las suspensiones son temporales. Esto quiere decir que expirarán después de un tiempo determinado, y podrás volver a editar la wiki de nuevo. La suspensión es una advertencia: reflexioná que hiciste mal y cambiá tu actitud. Caso contrario, no tendrás tanta suerte la próxima vez.

Suspensiones permanentes

Si tu suspensión es permanente, significa que te mandaste una cagada o que te advertimos previamente y no cambiaste tu actitud. Es poco probable que se revoque, pero puedes esperar algunos meses y pedir una segunda oportunidad si pruebas que entendiste que hiciste mal y que no vas a repetir los mismos errores que cometiste antes.

Evasión de suspensión

Esta prohibido crear nuevas cuentas para evadir una suspensión. Esta acción resultará en la suspensión de tu IP. En otras palabras: no vas a poder participar más en TCRF. No lo hagas.
