Discord is a free text and voice chatting platform available on web browsers and as standalone apps for desktop and mobile. One of its key features is "servers," which are groups of channels focused on specific topics. For instance, Test Wiki has a dedicated server for wiki discussions, and it can be joined by following this link. Test Wiki's Discord was founded by X on June 19th, 2023. During the summer of that same year, ownership changed hands to Drummingman. An account is necessary to join, so read and understand Discord's terms of service before joining.
Channels
These are the channels of Test Wiki. When a user joins the server, the only channel available will be #verify, where they connect their Test Wiki account to their Discord one. When they complete the verification process, all the other channels will replace the verify channel.
| Channel | Info |
|---|---|
| #rules | The list of rules on the server, see below. |
| #announcements | The official announcements channel covering both server and wiki matters. |
| #wiki-feed | A read-only channel where everyone receives the recent changes feed. |
| #verify | The channel new server members face. Gaining access to the rest of the server is simple. First, log into Test Wiki. Next, specify your Discord username at Special:MyPage/Discord. Publish the page, return to Discord to this channel, and run the command /verify with your Test Wiki username specified on the username option.
|
Discussion & Requests
| Channel | Info |
|---|---|
| #general | General discussion of Test Wiki topics. No private data/links in the channel. |
| #public-requests | Use this for server-related requests. Wiki-related requests should go in #general.
|
| #private-requests | Users can create a "ticket" (a private channel) to request suppression and other private inquiries. |
| #off-topic | Discussion of topics not related to Test Wiki is allowed here. |
Rules
Here are the rules of the Discord server:
- No spam, vandalism, threats, or personal attacks.
- Keep the discussion to wiki-related topics, for the most part, except in
#off-topic. - Any user indefinitely blocked on wiki will be banned here as well.
- Do not post invitations to other servers in this server without moderator permission.
- Exercise common sense and remember that all wiki policies also apply here.
These rules will be enforced with timeouts, kicks, or bans by server moderators or stewards. If you need assistance from a moderator, say @Moderators. If you need assistance from a steward, say @Stewards. If you need assistance from a suppressor, say "@Suppressors DMs" in #general. Do not link to the material to be suppressed, except in Direct Messages to a suppressor or in a ticket. Alternatively, open a ticket in #private-requests for faster support.
