Line 1:
This is the Policy for Wiki Staff: our promises to you, the readers and editors of [[All The Tropes:About|All The Tropes]]. It's also our manifesto -- how we feel that a wiki should be run.
# '''This wiki is a digital commons -- a place that belongs to everyone'''. Just like a physical commons, [[All The Tropes:Content Guidelines|there are rules]] for the community to follow and leaders to keep the rules, in order to prevent [[w:Tragedy of the commons|The Tragedy of the Commons]]. Also, like a commons, the rules are a reflection of what we as a community want -- not a policy set by administrative fiat. Rules and policies will be set, as much as possible, by an informed consensus of the wiki editors, with an eye toward the long-term growth and sustainability of All The Tropes.
# '''Disagreement with the Wiki staff is ''not'' treason.''' You will never be banned for disagreeing with wiki policy. You will never have your posts or comments or contributions erased simply because a staff member didn't like what you said. We ''want'' to see other opinions and points of view from ours, because we know from experience that we can (and probably will) be wrong on occasion. If you can convince us, great! If you can't, we bet we can still find something of value in what you wrote.
# '''The Wiki has no borders.''' All The Tropes documents the full range of human creativity, regardless of culture or nation of origin. We promise you that administrative xenophobia or prejudice will not limit the works, memes and tropes that may be discussed and quantified on the wiki. We further promise that we will not allow a ''contributor's'' xenophobia or prejudice to intimidate other contributors out of pursuing their particular interests.
