Help:Contenu/Règles & Instructions
Veuillez lire le règlement avant de commencer à éditer.
Contents
Quelles informations puis-je ajouter ?
Ajoutez ces informations
Du contenu inutilisé toujours présent dans le jeu.
- Par exemple: Des personnages inutilisés, niveaux, objets, cinématiques, sons, textes, textures, fonctions et code.
Des fonctions debug.
- Par exemple: Menus debug, debug audio, et sélection de niveaux.
Les différences entre plusieurs versions sortis.
- Par exemple: Documenter les différences entre une version Japonaise et Américaine d'un jeu.
Des fuites de prototypes de jeu.

Ne pas ajouter ces informations
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.
Unreleased games and prototypes for which no publicly-available ROM or disc image exists.
Games that have at least one announced release date, but have not been officially released yet.
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.
- Exceptions:
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.
- Exceptions:
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.
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.
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.
- Exceptions:
- 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.
"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.
- Exceptions:
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.
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.
Content that was later made available as DLC.
- Exceptions:
- Content that was modified or updated before being released as DLC.
- Exceptions:
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.
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.

Règlement d'Edition
Grammaire/Orthographe
Efforcez-vous d'utiliser une bonne grammaire, un bon orthographe et la ponctuation tout le temps. Quelques fautes sont pardonnables, surtout si le français n'est pas votre langue natale, mais faites de votre mieux pour vérifier votre écriture avant de sauvegarder la page !
Si vous êtes mauvais en orthographe et en grammaire, copier-collez votre texte dans un traitement de texte ou un correcteur orthographique en ligne comme BonPatron avant de le soumettre sur TCRF. Cela devrait vous aider à corriger votre texte!
Spéculation
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.
Editorialiser
Ne critiquez pas fermement un jeu juste parce que vous ne l'aimez pas. D'autres lecteurs peuvent être en désaccord.
Humour
Vous avez le droit d'utiliser un peu d'humour dans votre écriture. Par contre...
- 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).
Vandalisme
Vandaliser n'importe quelle partie du wiki (exemples: remplacer des informations valides avec du charabia ou du texte non pertinent, ou spammer des pages inutiles) entraînera un bannissement définitif et immédiat. Si vous avez un problème, parlez à un administrateur; ne soyez pas agressif dans nos articles !
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.
Guerres d'édition
Veuillez ne pas annuler les éditions des autres personnes sauf si vous pensez qu'il y a une erreur évidente. Cela inclut les éditions qui rend le texte d'une page ambiguë, trompeur ou retire des détails techniques. Dans une telle situation...
- 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.
- 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.
Gestion des conflits
Si vous avez des soucis incessants avec un autre utilisateur, ou si vous voulez discuter d'un changement, écrivez un message courtois dans la page de discussion d'un administrateur et expliquez la situation. Si vous ne savez pas comment fonctionnent ces pages de discussion, visitez Pages de discussion d'un utilisateur pour plus d'informations.

Bannissements
Si vous enfreignez les règles, que vous faites trop de changements non pertinentes, ou que vous ayez une attitude déplorable, vous pourriez être banni. Souvenez-vous, ce wiki est dirigée de manière privée, c'est un privilège d'être ici, pas un droit.
Ban Temporaire
Parfois, les bannissements sont temporaires. Cela veut dire qu'ils vont expirer dans un temps donné, et que vous pourrez éditer le wiki de nouveau. Prenez-le comme un avertissement, essayez de comprendre ce que vous avez fait, et changez votre comportement, ou dans un tel cas, vous n'aurez pas autant de chance la prochaine fois.
Ban Permanent
Si votre ban est permanent, cela veut donc dire que vous avez fait quelque chose de très mauvais, ou que malgré les avertissements vous n'avez pas changé votre comportement. C'est peu probable qu'un ban permanent soit annulé, mais vous pouvez attendre quelques mois et demander une seconde chance si vous prouvez que vous avez compris ce que vous avez fait de mal et que vous ne refaites pas les mêmes erreurs.
Evasion de Ban
Créer d'autres comptes pour contourner le ban est interdit. Il en résultera un bannissement d'IP. Cela veut dire que vous ne serez jamais le bienvenu pour participer sur TCRF. Ne le faites pas.
