(Important: This is currently only a draft policy.)
The goal of the Project Nephilim Database is to be a reliable, concise guide to all readers. Towards this end, it is necessary for us to restrict to some extent the type of information we accept.
Types of article[]
There are three types of articles:
- Project Nephilim articles
- Any subject mentioned in or derived from a film, webisode, prose story, or theatrical production. This type is further divided into two sub-types:
- Salvation, Paracelsus (Novel), and Hence These Tears - Subjects seen or mentioned in these series.
- Spin-offs - Any subject seen or mentioned in prose (novels, novellas and short stories), and webisodes officially sanctioned by the Paracelsus Films and/or license holders.
- Other Universes - Stories which are not necessarily part of 'canon' but derived from the Project Nephilim Universe Universe, authorized, though not part of 'canon'.
- Real World/Out of universe
- Information on stories set in the Project Nephilim Universe.
- Information on the creators and actors who have taken part in the making of the stories.
The policy of the Project Nephilim Database with regards to acceptable sources for use in articles is as follows:
What is considered a valid source?[]
This section is still in flux, as the policy is still under debate.
- All Project Nephilim Webisodes.
- Spin-offs such as Hence These Tears, Eye on the Commonwealth.
Secondary sources[]
These sources are valid sources, however should not be the only source for an article.
- Novelisations of broadcast webisodes by Paracelsus Entertainment Group and other publishers may be used, however any information that contradicts that novelisation's webisode information is to be considered apocryphal and should not be included within the main body of the article.
Items on which policy is unclear[]
- Background information from the production staff (Vincent C. Morreale, Alexandria Leonard, Paul Ezzy, Michael Simon, etc) should either be included under the relevant background section (where available), or added to the article's Talk page where its validity can be assessed for inclusion.
Deleting invalid articles[]
If you believe an article contains nothing but non-canon information, or is sourced solely from non-valid resources, then the article should be noted with a {{proposed deletion}} template/banner, which will alert others to the article's invalidity and allow others to defend it.
Except in cases of obscenity and other offensive text, you should not edit the article and delete the text.
