'''Contribute to what you find useful.''' At Community Central, we offer support for wikis, share information about Wikia, and get to know each other. You can find categories in our [[Special:Forum|Support Forums]] and [[:Category:Blog posts|blogs]], which offer some general guidelines for what you may want to discuss on this wiki. Keep in mind, though, that what matters to some people may not matter to everyone, so if you find a conversation you're not interested in, just focus your attention on another topic. | '''Contribute to what you find useful.'''

'''Be nice and treat people with respect.''' Being friendly goes a long way, no matter where you are. Say hello to others, welcome new users, provide help when you can, and ask others if you need assistance. Being nice and treating people with respect can greatly impact the growth and success of this wiki community. | '''Be nice and treat people with respect.''' Being friendly goes a long way, no matter where you are. Say hello to others, welcome new users, provide help when you can, and ask others if you need assistance. Being nice and treating people with respect can greatly impact the growth and success of this wiki community. One of the best ways to do this is to remember that the user you're speaking to is an actual person, not a computer screen, so treat people as you would if you were talking to them face-to-face. | ||
'''Don't be disruptive.''' | '''Don't be disruptive.''' When we say disruptive, that means your behavior is starting to affect other people and their ability to engage on Community Central. This includes spam, vandalism, and anything else that takes people's attention away from the matter at hand towards what you're doing. | ||
'''Spread the word!''' A community is only as strong as all of its members. The more it has, the stronger (and more successful) it will become. So invite your friends and other Wikians who may be interested in Community Central to start spending time here, and give them tips on how to get the most out of their experience. | '''Spread the word!'''
