  6. Removal of signatures that falsify statements made by other users and retroactively labeling them with the speaker's name and timestamp.

1. Within their own discussion pages, users are:

• 1. Allowed to customize their own discussion pages appropriately, but are not allowed to automatically play audio and video.

  2. When there is a situation where the page is too long or excessively customized and other situations that affect the loading of the page, causing others to access and discuss the page, users should archive or delete expired discussion strings and reduce unnecessary customization.
  • This rule is activated when multiple maintainers determine that this is the case or when another user makes a request on the operation request board.
  • If the situation is found to be true, the maintenance staff should first remind the user to deal with it, and assist in dealing with it if the user does not respond within 7 days.

• Engage in normal communication dialogue.
• Send wiki friendlies.

1. Administrators can leave warnings on user discussion pages.

• • When leaving a warning message, it should contain the "Suspected maintainer left a warning" tag (if the content or summary of the maintainer's message contains the word "warning", the abuse filter will be automatically triggered to tag it).

If a user violates the signature guidelines, the maintainer shall remove the inappropriate part of the signature or replace the entire signature with {{unsigned}} or a standard signature (i.e., "username (discussion) XX/XX/20XX (〇) XX:XX (CST)" format).

Archiving

Discussion board archive

In order to prevent the sub-pages of Talk:Discussion board from being too long and causing the page to load, submit edits, and other actions to be too slow, the following is the discussion board archive mechanism.

• Bot archiving mechanism:

• • If a discussion string has ended (specified time after being marked {{MarkAsResolved}}) or if no new statements have been made for 10 days, the discussion string is cut and pasted for archiving.
  • On the original discussion page (a sub-page of Moegirlpedia Discussions:Discussions) only the discussion string title is retained and the {{Saved}} template is hung to mark it.

• • In the sub-page of Moegirlpedia talk:Discussion page, keep the discussion string with title and content archived, and its title will be deleted on the 1st of each month.
• Archived page naming.
  • Archived pages will retain their original naming rules (i.e. Talk:PAGENAME/archive/YYYYMM, e.g. Talk:Discussion board/Archive/June 2022, i.e. created and filed in the archived pages according to the month when they were archived)

• Other archiving mechanisms.
  • The archiving of the group information board is done manually by the maintenance staff.
  • The archiving of the account cancellation request board is done manually by the administrator.
  • In certain cases, the maintenance staff can also manually archive the discussion boards.

Archiving user discussion pages

When a user chooses to archive a discussion string on a user talk page.

• 1. It is not allowed to save the talk string to a location other than the User talk namespace (User talk:) on this site.
  2. Archiving must be done through sub-page archiving or fixed link archiving.
  3. Users are allowed to delete sub-page archives at their own request.

Other

1. Under certain circumstances, administrators may use abuse filters to help with the management of the discussion forum.
2. If the Administrator and Patroller repeatedly perform illegal management operations in the discussion forum, it will be considered as a damage to Moegirlpedia and will be dealt with according to the relevant content in the policy.
3. Disclaimer: See Moegirlpedia:Disclaimer.
