FizzWiki:Community Standards

Topics

The scope of FizzWiki includes Fizz/Fizz-adjacent music, the artists and culture thereof, sound design and music theory/phenomenology/philosophy.

Established Topics

You can write about established topics, just make sure not to steal content directly from other sources unless cited. Just be reasonable!

New Topics

The Fizz community is home to many different unique concepts and phrases (see Fizz De Novism). Feel free to create articles about topics that are talked about in the Fizz community, but you can also create an article about a topic you came up with, as long as it's clear, cohesive, extensive, and fits in with the rest of FizzWiki.

People

You can make new pages about Fizz artists, people associated with Fizz, and Fizz enemies if they are notable in the Fizz community and also fit one of these criteria:

They have 10k+ monthly listeners on Spotify

They have a song on the Fizz playlist with 10k+ streams on at least one platform

They have 10k+ followers on Youtube, X, TikTok or Instagram.

Their identity is completely tied up in Fizz (ex. Fizz meme pages).

Can I make a page about myself?

If you don't fit the criteria above, you cannot create a new page about yourself. However, you can write and edit anything in your user page (click on your username in the top right).

Format

Remember that your article is taking up space that newcomers are exploring. Long, exhaustive pages that link to other FizzWiki articles are preferable. Short pages are ok as long as they're complete, meaningful and coherent. Unfinished/lazy looking "stub" articles will be deleted.

Writing Style

Make sure to lay everything out Wikipedia-style. Basically, try to make your article read like a Wikipedia article, even if it's opinion-heavy or sarcastic.

Grammar

Use proper grammar and try to make the pages look as nice as possible.

Tone

Unlike Wikipedia, whose content is written from a strictly "neutral" point of view, FizzWiki allows for content written from the writer's side of the issue, whether that be positive or snarky (similar to RationalWiki). Some FizzWiki pages are purely informational, but pages with irony, sarcasm and humour are also allowed (see Kumbaya Ideology). This can make articles a lot more fun to read

If you’re editing a page that you didn’t start, try to use the same tone as what’s already been written.

Uploads

The upload limit is 1MB, but try to keep uploads as small as possible, even if they look a little bit funny.

No Bigotry

Racism, sexism, homophobia and any kind of bigotry based on immutable characteristics is not tolerated. However, AI-artist-phobia and jazz-phobia are encouraged.

AI

Prompting AI to help you write is banned. Fizz is a movement centred around human creativity and that includes the articles on FizzWiki. Defending/normalizing AI-art is also banned.

Hmmmm

If you have an idea for an article and you're still not sure if it's compatible with these standards, try asking the discord community about it. Yo, you read this whole page? That's freaking awesome.

The FizzWiki admins reserve the right to delete or move information from any article for any reason.
