Rules/guidelines for wiki pages?

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

My Mediawiki (which has been used non-stop for six years of pbp play) just took a dump this weekend, when my service provider moved us to a faster server. I will likely be able to get it back up and running this week, but it seems fortuitous that ENWorld would start a wiki section at the same time.

The only wrinkle is that my Midwood campaign takes place in Praemal, the world of Monte Cook's Ptolus, and as a result, my private wiki has a fair amount of IP mixed in, so that players can know the names of gods, their favored weapons, and the like.

What are the guidelines for what's OK to post and what's not OK to post here? I don't want to ruffle any feathers -- or get anyone in trouble -- but unless it's 100 percent homebrew (which, as much as I've added in my campaign, Praemal and Ptolus definitely are not), it seems like there's always going to be at least some gray (or even black) area.

Wow. I only saw this thread because a spambot posted in it. I'l move it to Meta where it can actually be seen; the Wiki forum isn't a forum as such, it's just a container to hold the wiki pages.

ANd in answer to your question - as long as you're not copying and pasting chunks of copyrighted material, there should be no problems. You're certainly allowed to refer to or mention that material.
