Wiki Deleted
Hi Baron Roman Von Ungern-Sternberg,

Following an e-mail report to Stewards, I have deleted your wiki  for serious Content Policy and Code of Conduct issues. If it had been just a single page or a few pages that were problematic, they could've been suppressed; however, looking through your entire wiki, it was abundantly clear to me and Void that this wiki was apparently setup to disparage, attack, and otherwise bully a user so named by your now deleted wiki's  namespace. Indeed, looking through your wiki's approved purpose and scope, it was originally requested as a wiki, "[t]o document the online escapades and hijinks [you] have with [your] friends in a semi-professional manner. To also encourage more people to get involved with [y]our gaming community by reading the stories [your] share[s]." That's not at all what that wiki's content contained.

Accordingly, please review both Content Policy and Code of Conduct, two global policies to which all Mirahezians are bound, paying particular note to the following:

For the Content Policy:
 * 1) "Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people."

For the Code of Conduct:
 * 1) "Be respectful," and "Harassment of other users is unacceptable." Note that in this context users refers to both existing Miraheze users and potential future Miraheze users.

If you are creating articles about real people, living or deceased, your wiki must:
 * 1) Verify said facts and information are cited in (ideally) multiple reliable sources;
 * 2) Ensure said articles are balanced&mdash;that is to say, they should not be wholly or largely negative about said person(s); and, where your wiki includes photograph(s) of said person(s)
 * 3) Ensure you and/or your contributor(s) is/are either the legal copyright owner of said photograph(s), or you are otherwise legally entitled to post said photograph(s). Where either of the above apply, you must ensure that valid attribution and licensing information is provided on said photograph(s).

Please keep the following in mind going forward in any future wiki(s) you may request from Miraheze.

Thank you, Dmehus (talk) 23:22, 1 March 2021 (UTC)


 * You're wrong for a start, pal. Nothing stated on the wiki was an untruth, this man has groomed children online and is currently the subject of a police investigation. But keep defending him if that's what gets you going.

 * I would like to make it clear that no one is "defending" anyone or taking any sides in this matter. The two stewards in question would've not made an assessment regarding the factual accuracy of the claims at all. The claims were simply removed because there was a lack of evidence or citation to the statements. I'm sure you understand that claims without citation can easily lead to libel. The Content Policy provides that "Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people" and that "[c]ontent on wikis must be fairly balanced, meaningful or substantiated by independent referencing". If the claims being made were backed up by hard evidence, they would not have been removed. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 18:10, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
