Rules for makala and makala Comments
1. First and foremost, as with the rest of the spot, NO SPAM! If I see any spam makala au maoni I will ripoti them on sight....yeah...I'm mean about spam.
2. Please keep your makala relevant to the series...this goes hand-in-hand with the spam. No, Harry Potter doesn't make an appearance at Camp Halfblood and I seriously doubt that Whisty Allgood was spotted on Mt. Olympus so I don't want them to be a topic for an article...they have their own vitabu and their own spots.
3.Grammar and Spelling, people, grammar and spelling. Please try your hardest to use proper grammar and spelling. I know that we all make our mistakes, and sometimes not even a spell check will catch everything, but try your hardest. If wewe need someone to read it before hand I will be glad to go over it and hariri mistakes.
4. I will not have any rude remarks in an makala au in the maoni to an article. I will ripoti these on site. No one, and I mean no one deserves to be treated in an ill manner. If wewe don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all.
5. Constructive criticism and debate are very much tolerated and welcome, but they mustn't be rude in any way.
6. Vulgarity, such as lewd subjects and curse words, is not allowed...there are only certain instances in an makala that I will allow them. We will discuss those in a few minutes.
7.If wewe are aliyopewa a warning kwa an admin, just like on the rest of the spot, wewe are expected to follow their instructions. Not heeding the words of an admin twice in a row will result in a report. Three reports on fanpop means a ban from the site (not just the spot), so please try to follow the rules and listen to the admins...you can find a complete orodha of the admins in the rules for the Heroes of Olympus spot.
8.Plagiarism will NOT be tolerated. Whether it be in the makala itself au in the comments, if I see it I WILL ripoti it! If wewe are going to use someone else's words give them credit for it.
9. Spoilers will be in effect for two weeks after the release of new (sample) chapters and for at least 2-4 months after the release of the books. If your makala contains spoilers please put a spoiler alert in both the Title and in the description, and don't put any revealing information in those two places. Failure to follow this will result in one warning. If a sekunde warning is needed I will simply ripoti you.
10. FANFICTION MUST GO IN THE FORUMS!!! All chapter fics must be ilitumwa in the forums!Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be placed in the makala section. Any stories placed in the makala with multiple chapters will be reported as spam au miscategorized content!
Ok so there's some basic rules. Now onto other business, that is to say, the who, what, when, where, how and why of makala writing.
First off, you'll notice that there are categories in the makala section. Let's discuss each.
Opinion- This is what 95% of the makala on the HoO spot are. Pretty much, this is where makala about your theories, ideas and such go.
Review- Have wewe finished kusoma one of the vitabu and wewe want to give your thoughts about the events that occurred? This is where wewe do it. Reviews should be factual, but a little opinion never hurt. This in no way, shape au form is where wewe post your predictions for future books.
Guide-This is where only fact is accepted. If wewe want to give everybody a rundown of the characters, au a description of the plot line you'll put it here. Also, rules ilitumwa kwa the admins will be ilitumwa as guides and new information about upcoming releases will be ilitumwa here kwa one of the admins.
Fan Fiction-This is a special makala because most fanfiction is to be placed in the forums. Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be filed under this category. This is the only one of the makala categories that vulgarity will be allowed in, but it must be properly rated like the regular fanfiction.
List-Oh! So wewe want to orodha out the important places au wewe want to make a checklist of things a young demigod should take on their quest? This is the place to do it...
Other- This is a catch all for everything that doesn't fit in the other categories. Again, please make sure it is relevant to the spot and the series.
