Warhammer 40K Homebrew Wiki:Article Quality Policy

Here on the WH40K Homebrew Wiki, we strive to maintain a high level of both professionalism and quality of our articles. Some articles unfortunately won't make the cut. This is usually due to the failure of a contributor to meet the bare minimum requirements as set forth in this policy. These pages will most often be removed by administrative fiat after being identified as in non-compliance of established wiki guidelines or quality standards by an Administrator or other editor.

Articles that are identified by a Quality Issue Template is usually due to not meeting at least one of the following critical items listed below. Once an article has been identified as non-compliant, the contributor will have one month to correct the identified deficiencies in order to bring the article back up to quality standards.

Minimum Requirements
The following are the absolute bare minimum requirements that must appear on an article in order for it to be compliant with the Article Quality Policy.
