One-Punch Man Wiki:Editing Guidelines

Editing
Anyone is free to make edits on articles here. However; just because everyone has the right to edit articles doesn't mean the edits will be exempted from being reviewed by other editors and especially the moderators.

If you disagree with an edit made by a user or even by a moderator, you are allowed to adjust it or even undo entirely the edit but have to provide a reasonable refute as to why the edit should not be implemented (this for example). If the undone edits are reverted, the best thing you should do is talk to the user that is reverting your edits to try to come to a consensus (on their message wall for example). DO NOT edit war in articles when someone reverts your edits, period.

Furthermore, if you notice that there are incorrect information on the articles while visiting the wiki, feel free to make edits in an attempt to adjust them or even remove entirely the incorrect parts to help the wiki improve. Don't be afraid to do that, information on the wiki aren't always correct. If you believe that you are right, then just do it. If the others have problems with your edits, they can deal with you later.

Basics
These are the basic guidelines for editing.
 * Fact > Opinion, for example though most people believe Boros is a disaster level of God, he has never been confirmed and as such should not be listed as a God level threat.
 * In terms of determining the reliability or priority of sources, remember: Original Manga > Audiobooks > Original Webcomic > Databooks > Anime > Accurate Translations (by reliable scanlators or translators) > Official English Dubs (Such as Viz and FUNimation).

Grammar

 * Use words that are appropriate to the article, and keep the language simple.
 * Wikis are meant to present information in an easy-to-read manner, so avoid using fancy diction.
 * All sentences should use the proper tense.
 * All summaries of plot should be written in the present active tense.
 * American English is the preferred variety of English.

Appearance Section

 * Should be as detailed as possible.
 * Ultimate goal should be that any costume designer can use it as a point reference.

Trivia Guidelines

 * Trivia should be something that is not so obvious to the average viewer, such as who Atomic Samurai was modeled after.
