QWiki:Notability Guidelines

Please note that inclusion of pages in mainspace is ultimately up to the discretion of the QWiki staff

Sadly, not everything can be added to the wiki. We want all our pages to be as up-to-date as possible and to meet our quality standards in general. That is made harder the more pages are created, not to mention additional factors, such as the fact that time goes on and players and teams disappear and pop up.

Now, these are not non-negotiable. This wiki contains coverage of certain teams and players that may not strictly meet our notability requirements, however they are considered to be of special importance to their local scene or to Quakeworld history as a whole. Any pages that do not meet these guidelines will not be deleted, but will be moved to your user space.

If you disagree with the decision for a certain page, please do come chat in our Discord.

Players
Players may receive their individual pages, as long as they surpass a certain threshold of notability. Check the bullet points below. Please note that achievements will generally be the primary determinant of notability, however if your chosen player fits one of these, then they may be notable enough to warrant a page on this wiki.


 * Achievements: If the player has achieved results in any tournament;
 * Previous history: If the player was a professional player in another game (Overwatch, Call of Duty, TF2, ...);
 * Anything interesting: If the player has any interesting history or trivia;

To create a new player page, follow the Player Template.

Teams

Completely optional, use your userpage as an indication of who you are, or use it as your sandbox! Feel free to be friendly or check out how other users have done theirs.
