{{Policy Index}}
This is the official page for the '''user page policy''' of {{SITENAME}}. These guidelines provide expectations about how to respect the work of others when modifying your user page.

Before making any contributions to the wiki, all users, regardless of position or status, are expected to understand and abide by all policies. The wiki may block you if you repeatedly violate these rules after receiving a warning.

Certain policies are able to be changed or modified based on a general community consensus. Anyone who disagrees with a policy is welcome to suggest changes, which can be organized on [https://gokurakugai.fandom.com/f discussions] or contacting an [[Project:Administration|active administrator]].
Certain policies may be changed or updated based on general majority consensus.

== Your user page ==
User pages on {{SITENAME}} are often used as a user "profile," providing information on a user's wiki activity, such as what pages they edit, what they are altering, what privileges they have, what groups they belong to, and so on.

After making an account with Fandom and signing in, you may modify and personalise your user page. You may include photos and other file kinds, use templates such as infoboxes (as long as they don't generate categories automatically), and basically express who you are. However, when it comes to their user page, each user is subject to a variety of restrictions.

== Guidelines ==
=== Text and editing ===
Users are able to publish whatever they desire on their user page as long as it does not violate any other [[:Category:{{SITENAME}} Policy|restrictions]]. Everyone has the right to express their views, but if those views are judged objectionable by others, the infringing user page may be changed, locked, or deleted without warning. We highly advise against revealing personal details about yourself online, such as your complete name, phone number, and address.

Editing other users' user pages is absolutely prohibited unless that person has provided permission, such as to modify "friend lists" or for maintenance purposes. Any modifications made to another user's user page without permission are deemed [[Project:Vandalism policy|vandalism]] and may lead in a notice, if not a block. This also contains user subpages, which are all pages that belong to a single user and have titles that begin with "User:". These prefixes appear in both the URL shown in the address bar and on searches.

==== Editing frequency ====
Users can modify their user pages as much as they like, but they should not inconvenience other users. This might happen, for example, if a user makes a large number of modifications (say, 10-20) in a short period of time, interfering with [[Special:RecentChanges]] and [[Special:WikiActivity]]. Users who wish to make regular modifications should also pay attention to other areas.

=== Page elements ===
You are free to use photos and other file types on your user page, but you must follow the wiki's [[Project:File policy|file policy]]. Please do not overcrowd your user page with assets; a maximum of five photos are OK.

Embeded videos and audio files may play automatically, but they cannot be turned invisible. There should be a stop button at the top of the page that is both visible and apparent. Otherwise, the file(s) will be destroyed or erased.

=== Templates ===
Only a few sorts of templates are permitted, including [[Help:Infoboxes|infoboxes]], user-created boxes, quotations, and so on. Official namespace templates should not be used since some of them may add categories to your user page. Navigation boxes and notification templates are two examples.

=== Categories ===
Categories are strictly prohibited from being added to your user page. The only exception for adding categories are for members of the [[Project:Administration|administration team]] for the sake of easily categorizing the wiki's staff.

=== Self-advertising ===
The only place on the wiki where you may promote yourself is on your user page. You may include a link to your social networking accounts, an invitation to join a group, or published works. However, soliciting is still strictly prohibited. Posting links to other websites should not encourage visitors to make purchases.

=== Redirects ===
Unless they have been renamed, a user page should connect directly to the concerned individual. There should be no redirects to other sites on any user profiles.
