NovaRoma:Rules

Edict regarding categories and category titles.

An article on our website ("the Wiki") that is placed in any category shall not be placed in any additional category that includes the placed category as a child, grandchild or any other level of descent.

Except for items placed in maintenance categories, articles on our website ("the Wiki") shall be placed only in categories of the same language as the content of the article.

Category titles used on our website ("the Wiki") must use the same language as the articles placed in them, to the greatest extent possible.

This is effective immediately.

By my hand, M. Lucretius Agricola, Magister aranearius, a.d. XVIII Kal. Sep. M. Moravio T. Iulio cos.

Edict regarding the inclusion of external sites

As our website is primarily a documentation of our Nova Roma community and a reference tool for the ancient Roman world, I therefore promulgate this edict to establish the rules for inclusion of material about modern groups outside of Nova Roma.

The notability requirements for inclusion on our website are:

1. The group has a significant relation with Nova Roma because it participated in a notable event in the history of Nova Roma, or it has a substantial common membership with Nova Roma or it has participated in shared activities with Nova Roma.

2. The group is non-commercial and the academic nature of the group is sufficiently consistent with our goals to warrant the academic interest of our community for scholarly purposes.

3. The Senate of Nova Roma has established a relationship of any sort with the group.

If a group meets any one or more of these requirements an article may be created, usually under the name of the group. The reason for notability should be clear from the content of the article. This article would be the only acceptable location to place any external web links to that group. All other references should be internal wikilinks to the article.

Edict regarding commerce on the website

Effective immediately, commercial links and content on the Nova Roma website are prohibited except for members of the Equestrian Order and for others with whom the Senate has established a commercial relationship.
