5. Advertisement of other non-wikia sites is forbidden.
6. Please be polite to other people and their work, but also be constructively critical to help with ideas to improve their work.
7. Characters that are direct copies off of the original Naruto characters are forbidden. This applies to characters whose backgrounds are the same, but locations, names, etc. being changed.

11. Uploaded images must have a license included (found in the drop box menu on the upload page). License options categorized as "unknown" are not considered licenses.
12. Articles solely about components from the actual Naruto show (canon) are strictly prohibited. They will be treated as spam articles. Refer to Narutopedia for the most up-to-date information. If there is some fanon in it, the article shall be kept, but don't just copy/paste from Narutopedia.
13. Articles inappropriate for users at the age of 13 are disallowed, including those that promote sex and other explicit adult material.
14. As of October 31, 2009, role-playing is forbidden due to a closer adherence to the site's host's, Wikia, policies. Role-plays will be done on the companion forum.

The Naruto Fanon Wiki Administration reserves the right to add, remove, or edit the rules and regulations at any time.

Spamming

Spam is not tolerated on Naruto Fanon and will be dealt with accordingly. The following are examples of what is considered spam. It should be, in no manner, be used as a checklist for what is or is not spam. It is up to the discretion of the administration to consider what is or is not spam in more complicated scenarios.

• Articles that contain absolutely no content: it only has an article title.
• Images uploaded but not linked to any article or user page.
• Articles that only contain information that would fit under the category of "infobox information." Infobox information is extremely brief bits of information about a character.
• Continuously messaging user talk pages in a manner deemed by the administration and user in question to be annoying or repetitive.

An article deemed as spam has 24 hours to correct the issue. If the issue continues to fit under the category of "spam material" after the time limit is up, it will be deleted immediately.
